He had the wrong number! Called the Non immigrant tonight and got our case number. Ours arrived 29/11 so you shouldn’t have too much longer to wait. Good luck 🤞

@Greenbaum is there any way i can inquire about my case? i've been in AP for 2 weeks now. we  got a 221g for NBI aka during the interview which was november 26. gave them what they need on the 3rd of December and they received it on the 5th. We are stuck in AP and the last case update was on the 10th. Is there any way i can inquire about the things we need? I'm very sorry for the disturbance. I'm just freaking out right now. Is there a email address or a website where i can ask them other than the CEAC?

No one can say with any certainty when your visa will be issued. Administrative processing is at its most frustrating when it goes on for several weeks/months. Typically this is caused by additional administrative hurdles such as the recent flurry of executive orders regarding visa issuance. We have seen some who have experienced very long delays sometimes beyond a year. But those are rare. I hate to sing the same tune but patience is what is needed.

 

So using CEAC this is what you will see just after the interview:

 

When the Embassy is ready to issue a visa, it will change to "Nonimmigrant Visa Application"; at that time, you will know that you are a few days away from getting the visa. It will go from "Immigrant Visa Application" to "Nonimmigrant Visa Application" status and then your visa changes to "Ready" ==> "Administrative Processing" ==>> "Issued" status as well. These steps sometimes transpire over a day or even a few days. Some smaller Embassy's it happens within hours. When you see date updating then they are "touching" your record in the preperation of your visa.

 

Sometimes, it might skip "Administrative Processing" and go from "Ready" to "Issued". You need more patience it will happen soon.

My fiance got an email when it was dispatched with the subject of:

 

The National Visa Center sent your K1 visa petition to the U.S. Embassy/Consulate in <Embassy Location>

 

It came from the address NVC-do-not-reply@state.gov and contained a short body with an attachment in RTF format which had the case details

She is the petitioner

You can confirm when you call that they have your email on file. I did that when I got my case number and they said I’d receive an email upon shipment to the embassy.

I can confirm that I got this email as well when they shipped mine to the embassy. I am the petitioner.

Made our medical appointment today for 12/27. They said we just need an emailed or physical document with the case number on it at that time so we’re betting on being on the next shipment on 12/24 and getting an email then.
