Hmm, I can't find it. Rapidvisa says in 2017 they admitted about 200 people in a year. Compared to the Philippines or China that's not a lot, but 200 people in line before me is scary. 😬

Denmark did 39 K1s in 2019.

Just saw that  But unfortunately Denmark, Sweden, and Norway all go through the Swedish consulate, but that's still only about 100.

I think things will start to get better and we are lucky to be discussing countries that won’t have huge backlogs.

Morocco is finally processing K-1s again. I hope to have my NOA2 here soon so we can hopefully go ahead and schedule a interview and get my fiances visa. A few people got their NOA2 in November/December and they have their interviews in the next few weeks so I hope they stay on track and don't close again.

As soon as we get our NOA2 we are doing this! As soon as we heard about it, that was the plan.

Great - I have to be more careful because it looks like there are things we can’t actually say here - so .... let’s be all

politically correct there are no issues at USCIs and we just blame COVId for whatever happens 😒

Hello

 

Two questions.

 

1. What is the average time to get the NOA2?  I received my NOA1 relatively quickly after submitting the paperwork.

 

2.  My fiancé is Venezuelan but currently lives in Colombia.  We need to update his address but I am unsure how to.  Any guidance?

 

Thanks!

My estimate for NOA2 is late July/early August. So.. a long time.  Not sure about the address but maybe someone else knows!

Hi Kyle, processing times for NOA2 are 5.5-7.5 months per the USCIS site right now. So it will be awhile or longer depending on the embassy I’ve read members having a longer time because their K1’s are not being processed. Some embassies haven’t closed and processing accordingly.

 

I’ve asked USCIS about the address change while I was submitting for an expedite and the representative advised its OK to update this information at the NOA2 stage, while doing his DS160 Application.

Following this thread. We filed in October-2020.
USCIS received our file on 28th October 2020. Waiting for NOA2 now :)

Welcome!

 

Hopefully it's not much longer wait

Looks like filers in late August 2020 are getting their NOA2s. 👀 Haven’t heard of any September cases yet. We’re almost next!
