Hi does anyone know where I can find my alien number for k-1 visa?

Hi everyone, apologies for posting this a couple days late. I’ve caught the flu since weathers changing. I’m pleased to say I have gotten my k-1 visa issued and entered the states! here is my brief timeline, in hopes it can help you and ease your mind the way previous posts have eased mine. Here is the following updates after receiving the email to submit new documents. November 8th: ( done new medical + sent passport and new photos via Canada post) November 12: documents delivered November 20th: medical was delivered November 21st ( unsolicited update) November 25th (unsolicited update) December 3rd ( case changed from refused to “Application Received”) December 11th ( contacted congressman and also sent an email from my end) December 12th ( Case changed from “Application Received” to “ Approved”) December 13th ( Case changed to Issued!!) December 16 ( received email stating that my documents were available for pickup via BLS location, I picked up the passport the same day) December 17th ( flew into USA and activated my visa) * some notes* when passing through customs, I did get pulled into secondary, when you receive your documents back there will be a sealed envelope that you are not allowed to open, the USA officer needs to open it at secondary customs, your passport is on the outside of it for travelling purposes. Allow yourself some time to go through secondary because sometimes there’s a lineup. Also if you notice your case is not moving contact your congressman, I’m not sure if that worked for us but the next day my case moved, it’s worth a try. I wish you guys all the best and hope all of you see good news soon.

I think it takes additional time for the embassy to actually receive your documents as our mail goes to an offsite mailing address. I sent mine on Nov 8th and didn’t receive a case update until Nov the 21st. I haven’t heard of them forgiving medicals, you’ll most likely receive an email requesting a second medical. Hope this helped!

They won’t let you in

What is your visa category?

Sure I will

My passport delivered on the Nov 12th and medical on the Nov 20th and I’m still waiting also 😭

I would send new passport photos just to be sure

I see application received when I put in my case number in the ceac

Hi everyone, my status has been stuck on “application received” anyone have experience with getting it to move to approved?

I hope so!! And I hope you also get issued soon 🌹

Has anyone’s ceac changed from refused to “application received”? Does anyone know more information on this?

Yes that should be fine, I just recently changed my delivery to the BLS location from the Canada post

Congratulations!! How many unsolicited updates before your issued status?

Just an update for the people who have chosen Canada Post location to pick up their documents. Since many of us are unable to change it online, Canada.Visas@gdit-gss.com This is the email address I used to contact them for help, to switch my delivery option!!
