Hi Everyone!

Also curious if anyone else is currently going from USCIS to NVC to US Embassy right now and can give an idea of timelines. We just received an RFE, so we're hopeful that we should get USCIS approval soon.

 

Thanks to anyone for the help!

It took about 2 weeks for Embassy receive my fiancé case from NVC. We didn’t get an email from them until a week and half later after emailing them regarding the instructions on how to proceed.

Hello everyone, I'm so glad to have finally found this thread! I've been searching for anyone else who is going through the K-1 process with a Panamanian partner. My fiance and I received our NOA1 in July, and I'm trying to learn as much as I can so that we are as prepared as possible for the next step. (And of course, would love to get a sense of what timeline we should expect!) I also found a page on this site for the US Embassy in Panama that has pretty detailed info on waiting times for different steps, ie. Waiting Time for Interview After Consulate Recieves NVC Package, and waiting period for the visa to be issued once approved. Could anyone confirm whether the information on that page is still accurate? Thanks!!

Hi everyone,

 

Anyone that can share experience and timing for CR-1 in Panama? I have almost 5 months waiting for NVC to schedule the interview.

 

I appreciate it. Thank you.

Did you ever get your interview?

I am about 5 months as of today for CR1.

Hello my name is Gabriel and I´m from Panama. I'm married to USC. 

 

Finally we have received DQ by NVC for my CR1 visa process and are now waiting for the Panama US embassy to schedule an interview appointment for me.

Can someone give me your experience in how much time you waited to receive your appointment letter and when your interview was schedule?

 

Gracias😉
