  1. In that case you will wait roughly 3-4 months until you're notified via email or snail mail that you have an interview date. We waited 135 days from the date DHL delivered the application from NVC to interview at CD Juarez. Status remained "Ready" this entire time and only changed to "Application Received" on the day of the interview. We didn't get an email as they sent notification to my home in the US. Luckily we called the consulate and found out we were scheduled 2 weeks prior.
  2. In the same boat. Hope someone will respond. According to the wait times website, they only have a 2 day wait for some non-immigrant visas. I would imagine that our K-1 applications should be reasonably quick.
  3. My NOA2 was January 10 and I didn't get confirmation that it was received until February 24, which was 45 days later. Still waiting for data entry 😫
  4. We are American/Russian and live in Mexico as well, currently living in San Miguel de Allende, GTO. we originally selected Mexico as preferred embassy location on the I-129F. AFAIK, temporary or permanent legal residency in Mexico is required in order for the Embassy to accept the interview. Even then it is still at their pleasure to accept or deny. This may have changed, there may be some flexibility as its difficult for Russians to get Schengen visas and into Poland currently. I have had a conversation with my senator's immigration aid who is assisting us with our visa regarding this. Its a problem and I'm not sure State Dept has a blanket solution for where Russian applicants can go. I know of one of my fiancee's friends in Moscow that recently, and quite quickly too, obtained a B-2 tourist visa by going through the embassy in Tashkent Uzbekistan. Also, I read that some applications are getting shuttled to the Almity Kazakhstan embassy. Even with residency, we worry that the State Department will still send to Poland... We are according to VJ, the only Russian K1 application ever entered here with a Mexico requested embassy.
