Please all lets avoid the bad talk and stick to the topic at hand.

On the topic on hand I wrote you the whole process from japan and the most recent as the interview took place less than 10 days ago. 

 

Stick with the posts that actually answer your immigration question and you won’t have a problem.

 

check japan embassy timelines and reviews. 

 

*You can only edit posts for about 15 minutes of right after posting.

We got our NOA1 Notice on 3/1/2018...we were planning our wedding for August 4th but we were told that is highly unlikely.  Now my fiance is very skeptical when we can actually plan our wedding for.  I was told by USCIS it might be approved between August-October.  If we are approved by October whats next...her medical exam and then her interview...?

How long does that take?

Is it safe to try to plan a wedding for January?

Is all this delay because of Trump?

There's a girl on here who went to her Interview and was declined due to a clerical issue that they were not even able to explain. Her case was sent back to NVC. You cannot plan anything until you are approved in your interview. My interview date is exactly 11 months after the day we filed our I-129F. I'm going Canada to USA. I know wait times are different for different countries, but you really should expect a long wait. When you read it can take a year, it really can. It will be one year almost to the day before I'm in the USA with my fiancee if I'm approved.
