US Immigration from Ethiopia

Hi All,

Please Help!

So after submitting I-130 on Feb 11th 2020 with IOE*** number and Nebraska service center I submitted I-129F after 10 days. I recieved EAC*** i.e Vermont service center for my K3 application. I read most people saying usually you get the same service center for both I130 and I129F(k3). I have 2 questions

1) why mine got two differnt service centers?

2) I don't see any processing timelines or any info for Vermont proccessing K3 Visa. Please help if you have any info on this.

Thanks in advance

I apologize, this is not really an administrative "visa" related question, but a challenge we probably all share. I am wedding planning with my fiance and we are at the point where we are ready to make a deposit on a venue, purchase dress, etc. How conservative should we be on spending money before he has his visa? Is it a bad idea to put a deposit on a venue in case something goes wrong? Anyone have similar experiences/stories?

I filed on January 22. Anyone here got IOE960******* receipt number? Just curious. I was randomly assigned to Potomac Service Center. Thanks!

We've applied for the k-1 visa. I'd like to be there with my fiance for moral support. Those who have had experience with the Ethiopian embassy do they let fiance's attend interviews?

Hi All,

I'd love to hear some feel-good stories about K-1 visa approvals, or denials that were turned around. My fiance from Ethiopia and I just sent in our petition in October 2019 and as I watch more and more African countries undergo a travel ban I can't help to feel anxious. It's not a great time to go for a K-1, I know.
