    This is how I survived I-129F NOA1 through CFO Certificate issuance for Jaycel

    I'll say this..... For a simple case, uncommon name, not a lot of social media stuff to pour through, it shouldn't take much longer, but let me give a huge disclaimer here - AP is a mysterious "black hole" which no one really has much insight into and I've seen immigration attorneys and former consular officers alike say that all you can do during AP is just hold on and wait it out unless it drags on for more than 6 months to a year. In the Philippines, super long AP is not that common. In the grand scheme of things, 13 business days is not that long when it comes to AP. The other big holdup can also be background checking in other countries. Did your fiancée have to submit any police certificates because she lived somewhere other than the Philippines for more than 6 months after the age of 16?

    Yes.... The status would likely say "Refused" if they issued a 221g for more documents. That could change if they find something during the AP process but that's not as common as when the Consular Officer issues a 221g at the interview. Unfortunately with this administration's focus on "Enhanced Vetting" and now the social media focus, the length of time between interview and visa issuance seems (anecdotally) to be increasing. Hang in there, it's just a matter of patience now.

    Administrative Processing happens on every case before the visa can be officially approved and then issued. How long it takes varies from case to case depending on many things, some of them being; how common the applicant's name is (background check) and now a review of their social media.

    Best tip I can think to offer is make sure she has certified true copies of the important civil documents (marriage certificate, death certificate, passport or birth certificate of the deceased to establish their US Citizenship) and any proof that the marriage was bona fide that she can bring.
  13. Edward and Jaycel
    Yes when you fill out the request for the NBI clearance you need to include the AKA and it will be printed on the NBI Clearance.
  14. Edward and Jaycel
    Great news!!! Best piece of advice I can give you from here is start studying the AOS process for after you guys get married and then once they arrive in the US, make an appointment at your local Social Security office to get them SS Numbers. Makes things down the road a lot easier.

  24. Edward and Jaycel
    Get rid of your "Advisor" in Columbia. The DS-160 is for any Non-Immigrant visa, which the K-1 is. It must be filled out before you can schedule an interview with the embassy
  25. Edward and Jaycel
    This is correct... They gave Jaycel 5 shots on the 2nd day of the SLEC process
  26. Edward and Jaycel
    Anecdotally, since the increased vetting to include social media review, it seems that the time from interview to visa issued has increased from what it used to be. On the CEAC portal status, what is the "Last Updated" date?
  27.    Edward and Jaycel reacted to a post in a topic: Online filing: Any difference between the guided system and simple upload of I-130?
  28. Edward and Jaycel
    If they now have everything they need, it can take a day or two to a week for them to issue it. The fact that the "Last Updated" date changed to the 14th is good because that means someone touched the file.

    Are you talking about the Invoice Number? You will not get one of those with a K-1 case and you will not create a CEAC account for a K-1 Case.
  35. Edward and Jaycel
    I have seen on many forums that they were having an issue with getting receipt notices out to people that filed in January/February - Especially those who filed online.
  36. Edward and Jaycel
    A friend of ours who we helped file his K-1, had his received on July 31, 2025 and it just got approved a few days ago. Waiting is super rough, believe me I know but hang in there, it'll come.
