  1. Hi everyone! Thanks for taking the time to reply. We didn't have to request for an extension. My visa status is now "Issued" when i checked CEAC ☺️ Timeline: July 23 -interview July 29 -mailed the NBI, passport , and letter (refusal) to the US embassy August 1 - Approved August 2 - Issued I didn't expect it to be this quick!
  2. Hi! May i ask how long before got any updates after you mailed the documents to the embassy? Im in the same situation now, where did you see the status "ready"?Can I please have a link to that site? Thank you very much in advance.
  3. The one i took in my interview was brand new too, it's just that I really didn't notice those things he mentioned or maybe I thought they were not something that would cause concern. Another tip is to bring everything that she thinks will be asked, even the NVC Letter and the letter from the US Embassy from Manila stating that they have received the petition from NVC. During the pre-screening, they almost refused to assist me, the lady said my file is not in their system, they told me it's still in transit or still with NVC. I refused to leave because i know I received the US embassy letter, the physical one and the email. Good thing i have the letter with me, the lady didn't have a choice but look it up again, turns out they put me in the system with my middle name listed as my last name. Another tip is to always be honest in answering. They normally ask 1. When did you meet, 2. Where did you meet. 3. How many times have you seen each other, 5. When did you last see each other., those are questions that were always asked, i had to wait for a long time for my turn so i heard pretty much almost all the applicants while getting interviewed. I was also asked What's your wedding plan. Always keep the answers short and look the consul straight in the eyes while answering. All in all the interview was just brief, as long as they don't find anything that would cause doubt, she'll be good. Good luck to you both!
  4. Hey! Good thing you asked, as I want others to avoid the same mistake. My interview went fine it's just that the consul was not satisfied with my NBI clearance. He said the birthdate is faded and the picture has white line, they need a picture that captures the entire face. I honestly didn't notice those while i was preparing. If I could turn back time I would have gotten 2 NBI copies from different sites just to make sure.
  5. The consul asked me to re-submit an NBI clearance. I've submitted it yesterday (July 29) but the I-129F petition is about to expire on August 4. Do we need to email/ call the US Embassy here in Manila to extend the validity of the petition? Please shed some light as we've tried contacting USCIS but to no avail.
  6. Thank you so much! That made so much sense now. I appreciate the insight.
  7. What does this exactly mean " "Checklist of Required Initial Evidence (for informational purposes only) Please do not submit this checklist with your Form I-129F. It is an optional tool to use as you prepare your form, but does not replace statutory, regulatory, and form instruction requirements." This is from the USCIS website for K1 Visa filling. Does it mean we only have to sent form I-129F and primary documents e.g Birth certificate of the Petitioner? We're about to send our application but it's just a bit confusing as we want to send the documentation of our relationship and my fiancé's trip to my country. I hope someone can help. Thank you
