Case At NVC...Up for administrative review

[aaronanddawn 0]

Our I-129F was sent to NVC on or about June 6, 2007. Since then, I have called several times, and the last couple of times, all they will tell me is that the petition is up for administrative review. What does "administrative review" mean? How long is this going to take? We have been at NVC for 3 weeks now. I have seen that some make it through in a few days. Please help. Worried and losing my mind.

Unfortunately, AR sometimes happens. It will take as long as it takes. In the meantime you're in a black hole.

You might have a clue why. Perhaps its a sensitive occupation or a really common foreign name that got a hit.

don't have any clue. my wife and i have never been anything close to a criminal. our last name is extremely common. that is the only thing that i can think of. the problem is, it is not just her and i that this will effect. their are children involved, and the longer this goes on, the less time there is to make a stable life for them prior to the start of school. hope NVC doesn't take forever. What is scary is that i think that USCIS had to do the same thing, and it took forever to get processed. now NVC is at it. what happens when the Embassy comse into play? sorry, just venting at this point.

"Our last name." Any problem will be with your name or her name, not our name, unless you've been married quite a while. Any past issues that come up will be in the name used at that time in the past. Is her name very common in her country?

yes. both the maiden name and name from previous marriage are common. i guess that explains a lot. thank you for the help. it is appreciated. good luck in your own journey.
