Almost there, CENOMAR request

My fiance found her appointment confirmation with the UID, now we need to find out if they still need the completed 221G info form. My hope is they don't need it as they referred the CENORMAR and passport to a consular officer for review, knowing my luck they'll refuse her again and tell us she needs to fill out and submit the 221G info form and then proceed from there. She can fill that out and then upload a copy through the website so I'm praying they tell us we're all set and we just need to be patient while the process plays out.

 

Sending prayers your way!

CEAC currently shows last activity was November 29th, my fiance has finally been able to get in touch with someone in consular services who requested our full names, her passport number, purpose of travel and our case number. This wait is so soul crushing as we hoped we would spend Christmas together, i pray god steps in and we get good news soon.

Still no activity since November 29th. Riza has been in touch with Consular services and they had her fill out a couple of 221G forms and send them in to be added along with her passport and CENOMAR, they told her that her case is still under review. Is it normal for them to take so long to review a K1 visa petition? I'm wondering if they'll process it before medical expires.

When does it expire? My thought would be to have her reach out again, remind them of the medical expiry date and ask them if she should prepare herself to take another medical. Kind of prod them a little like, “Hey you have this long to screw around with this until I have to pay for another one of these.”

I also noticed on group chats updating 221g after confirming receipt of the documents was relatively slow recently, especially for those who had undergone sputum and went on with their interviews.

 

I hope yours will be resolved soon.

They are aware of the expiration of the medical stuff, they won't talk to me, only her and she has been going back and forth withn them. Right now everything is under review and we have no idea how long they will drag this out. It's incredibly frustrating to get this far and then suddenly nothing is happening.

That's awesome!! Just remember that the K-1 is a Non-Immigrant Visa and the case will change to a NIV and the CEAC status will say something like "Application Accepted" or something similar before it goes to "Issued". That's what happened on ours. So don't worry, it's normal.

[TommyAndRizaPerl 9]

Woohoo, CEAC now says issued. Once she has her passport she'll schedule a slot for the CFO in Cebu and then we'll make the final plans for me to go get her. What ducoments outside of what she already has will she need for the CFO? How do I go about getting a round trip ticket for me and 1 oneway ticket for her? I've never planned anything like that before.

Congrats!! Here's what was on our CFO Appointment confirmation. Make sure you check the website in case they changed anything in the last 5 months. Make sure your fiancee brings proff of relationship. They WILL look at every bit of it.

So her passport with the visa, copy of CENOMAR, copy of NBI, proof of relationship like photos of us together and emails, a photo copy of my passport, I don't know if this will count but ID's she has are her birth certificate and a voter registration that she used when she went for her vaccinations. Barcode confirmation of GCP is the appointment for CFO correct?

Yes - When she registers, she will get a confirmation PDF in her email that has a barcode on it that she will need to print out and bring with her.

The voter registration card should be sufficient. Have her bring her Birth Certificate as well just in case. The rest is correct as far as what she will need. I have heard of one member getting asked for her fiance's police report. He went and got an FBI records check and sent that for her to bring back. It doesn't happen often and they did not ask Jaycel for one from me, but just be prepared in case they do.

Technically she'd have 3 ID's with the passport, birth certificate and voter registration. She's going to get another copy of her NBI and CENOMAR tomorrow and print a bunch of pictures of us together along with some instant messages and emails. Hopefully we have everything covered. Thanks for all the help.
