Expedite Request Timeline.

[Megsn 1]

Hey guys,

 

I filed an expedite request on July 28. My fiancé is an active duty member of the military, and I saw a few others get approval for this. Now I’m not sure whether or not my request gets approved, but I figured I’d give it a shot.

 

However, it’s now been 6 weeks since the request and tomorrow is the 30th business day. What are my next steps if I don’t hear anything back by Friday morning? Will calling the NVC help? Send an another email that will go the bottom of the pile?

 

I appreciate any help.

NVC?

 

Is your I-129F approved?  Typically NVC denies expedite requests for K1 because, by it's nature, the I-129F is expedited.  It is better to contact the embassy and ask them to expedite.  If they approve, they will inform the NVC to send your case to them in the next diplomatic package.

Yes, it was approved on April 27, 2021. I spoke to someone at the NVC in late July and they told me I could file an expedite request. 
 

My case has been at the NVC now for about four months.

Have you sent on the deployment orders?

Yep. 
 

He’s returned from a deployment back in mid March, and is expected to leave any day now. So I sent his active duty orders off.

 

I’ve seen others get approved with less, but I’m not getting my hopes up.

 

I’d just like a response, lol. This wait has been hard on m6 mental health, lol.

I agree with @SteveInBostonI130. Your best bet would be to send an expedite request to the consulate.

My case was filed on July 20, 2020 and was approved on April 27, 2021. Now I’m waiting for an interview at the Montreal consulate but everything is so backlogged.
