An unrelated post has been removed. This is a K1 visa thread which has a different process and doesn’t have a DQ date concept like spousal because K1 applicants schedule their own interviews through a consulate. Please utilize a PM function to message a particular member.

Depends on each individual embassy. I would check with an other members in the portal for your country to get a feel for how yours works.

I submitted a follow-up inquiry hoping that my math was right and that the NVC would be working on my case. I think they took a long weekend due to the 4th, and they do not yet show it received. Today makes 4 weeks.

 

In the auto-email I received they are now telling people it can take up to 60 days for them to receive and work approved cases at the NVC.

 

I just wanted to share as I know this group, like me, is hoping for a quick turnaround to the embassy.  Still could be before 60 days but with USCIS clearing a backlog and speeding up processing times I am sure they are getting bombarded.

USCIS mail NOA2 to NVC June 7th but until now NVC haven't receive it.  Using Public Inquiry and they said nothing received.  Should I email to this address,  NVCResearch@state.gov?  Thanks!

NVC is now quoting up to 60 days for getting new cases entered in the system

Hello all... We got our NOA 2 on June 11th and did a public inquiry and got our case number from NVC on July 1. Just got the K-1 FTP saying it shipped to the embassy in Manila this morning, July 16. Best of luck to you all!

hi,

 

my case is finally updated to "In-Transit - Your case is in transit to the Consular Section. Your interview date was provided to you by the National Visa Center."  Where can I find the interview date? The email I got today from NVC didn't give interview date.

That’s a boilerplate message. Depending on the consulate, either you will schedule it yourself or the consulate will.

[battambang610 5]

On the NVC timeframes it stated, "After creating your case, we will send you instructions for processing, as well as a Welcome Letter that includes your Case Number and Invoice ID. You will use these numbers to log into our Consular Electronic Application Center"

 

1. Am I suppose to get a Welcome Letter? So far I did not get anything besides email from NVC k1 FTP letter attached in the email.  The letter just saying case mail to Cambodia consulate and case number.
2. On I-129F, I put my fiancee's daughter in the form, why I don't see her name in NOA2 and in NVC K1 FTP letter?
3. Now that the status is "In Transit", should I ask my fiancee and fiancee's daughter (5yrs old) to make appointment for medical checkup and criminal record?
4. As for signed I-134, signed and supporting documents, can I email to my fiancee since the mailing in Cambodia is very bad? Or they need original?
5. Letter certifying to marry with 90 days when arrived in USA, can I emailed the signed letter with most recent date? Or they need original? 
6. When can I file DS-160 for each person?

Thank you!
