I was told by a co worker who went through a similar process that the Manila embassy will contact the beneficiary of the k1 visa, not the petitioner. I don't know if this is true or not but I don't think her email address is on the paperwork, just her residence and name. I have already emailed my lawyer about this to see what he says because I thought I would be contacted when they are ready to process the application. The k1 visa application is currently in transit to the Manila embassy. I am hoping to get advice on this matter.

No, they do not contact K1s

I didn’t realize I would be asking a lot of questions but I’m sure I’m not the only one. I don’t know if the ceac website is accurate or not. Just the other day it stated that my k1 visa status was in transit. Now it is saying that the status is ready. I’m wondering what this means as I had thought it would be a few weeks before I heard anything else. I’m guessing others have the same status and question. Does this mean that my fiancée’s interview will be sooner than I thought or does this mean something else?

It means you can schedule interview if you have already completed the DS-160 and paid your MRV fee.  Typically transit time is 1-4 days from what I've been told. Ours wenr from In Transit on Tuesday to Ready on Wednesday. We already have an interview scheduled.
