Hi folks! I have a question about my stepson's petition. My husband (2020 K1 arrival, now permanent resident) has filed for his minor son (17). We included him on his K1, but he wasn't ready to come during Covid, so we put it off a bit thinking that the times (up to 1 year after K1 entered) would extend because of Covid - but apparently they didn't. So we have filed for him in May 2024. We were bracing for the worst, but are delighted to find that the timeline is sitting at 5 months to be determined according the pending USCIS website! Is that normal and/or reliable? Is there a way to get more information? That puts us out to the holidays for the decision and hoping that we can bring him home for Christmas, starting the new year in America! Or are we just dreaming? Has anyone else gone through this process after a K1/2 expired AFTER Covid? I would love to hear about those who have been through this. It seems all the other threads under this title are very OLD. Thank you in advance!
