Changing Consolate/Embassy ( Moving Countries)

[AJC12B 15]

If your K-1 beneficiary moves to another country while the K-1 is in process, how do you make sure the paperwork gets to the new country's consulate? Do you just call the NVC and have them re-route the paperwork to the updated consulate? Is there a fee or more paperwork involved? Can't figure out if this is a relatively simple/straightforward process—regardless of COVID since everything is shut down anyways—or if this is normally a giant pain in the butt to do and would only be worse to do now.

You can try to intercept when at NVC.  If you are unsuccessful,  you contact the new consulate and ask them to request a file transfer.   

 

No added fees

 

Can add 30 days or so to the process
