  1. The other thing to keep in mind is that when folks are approved, the vast majority of them will come out of the "Interview Scheduled" category. If you look at the daily case status change updates for October, the one below from 06/03, still quite a few interviews being scheduled but the number of approvals is outpacing them by quite a bit and therefore showing a decrease in the number of cases being in the "Interview Scheduled" category overall... At least that's how it looks to me
  2. Same here... Jaycel asks me all the time, "Did USCIS forget about me?" It breaks my heart
  3. Did you do an email inquiry or did you use the public inquiry website? If you do the email inquiry the NVC will NOT give you case details. Make a public inquiry using the link below. Use the attachment function to attach your I-129F approval notice. Ask for your case number. Then in the same inquiry ask them to update your casefile with yours and your fiancé(e)'s email addresses and give them your current email addresses. This will ensure that they and the embassy has both of your email addresses correct in the file https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/visa-information-resources/ask-nvc.html

  5. Oh my Lord they are starting to get out of control again
  6. Both times was right after re-opening the country after the Covid lockdown... I wonder if that had something to do with it?
  7. Yes, she stuck to her guns, was calm, respectful but very insistent that she knew me very well and would not be going to a different country to marry someone who she didn't trust 1000%. The counselor finally gave up trying to scare her and let her go. This was before they started asking for FBI / Police clearances so if she had asked, we wouldn't have had one and I'm sure she would have denied her pending me getting one to her.
  8. I know it's the hardest in the world to do but you just gotta wait and let them do their thing. Hoping it comes soon!

  10. There have been several reports lately of CFO asking for FBI clearance of the petitioner ever since that Filipina got killed by her husband in Europe somewhere 6 or 7 months ago. It seems to be at the whim of the CFO counselor rather than an official policy. I would get the email address and email it directly and CC your fiancée. I would also take a screenshot of the online instructions on the FBI website for getting the clearance where it specifically says that the clearance is usually emailed to you within 48 hours if you do the digital fingerprinting at the USPS. That should hopefully shut down the counselor's "anything gotten quickly is fake" BS. Let us know how it goes and good luck. Jaycel had a real peach of a counselor in Cebu who basically warned her that I was either going to murder her, cheat on her constantly or abandon her here in the US. 🤪
  11. You don’t need it to extend the tourist visa. BI can and often does ask to see either a return ticket or onward ticket upon initial entry to the Philippines, showing you are leaving before the 30 day expiration of the tourist visa stamp you get upon arrival. I was asked for this 2 out of the 3 times I entered the Philippines. Luckily I had a throwaway onward ticket showing my departure 28 days after my entry both times. I never had to show any ticket to extend my tourist visa at the BI office. Just twice upon initial entry
  12. Yes I've called a few of them and they say they won't do just the vaccine assessment. They say they have to do the whole medical exam again.
  13. It looks like so far it's only for the N400s so far because our I-485 case still shows the old version
  14. We just scheduled Jaycel to get her Polio vaccine at CVS on Sunday and then we will continue to look for a civil surgeon who will fill out the vaccine part of the I-693 for us
  15. Did you find a civil surgeon that did just the vaccine assessment?
  16. Thank you so much for sharing! Jaycel is missing the Polio vaccine so we are searching for a civil surgeon who will do the vaccine and just do the vaccine assessment of the I-693 for us
  17. Denver has a reputation of being one of the slowest field offices in the country sadly... Averages of 8-10 months from filing date to interview date and that seems to track with the 3 or 4 people I know who filed in Sept. 2024 just getting their interviews done in Denver this week and next week
  18. WOO HOO!!! 🎉 Congratulations!! Can you tell us about the interview?
  19. So much extra complication for you guys... Best of luck man!
  20. It's all good... I know how it feels my friend Not even having an interview scheduled yet is driving Jaycel crazy and she feels like USCIS has forgotten her. We did an Ask Emma session and the agent said that an interview was requested for our case on 3/13/25 so we are in the queue. It's just that the Denver FO is super slow and right now they are interviewing people that filed in Sept. 2024 so we have a couple of months to wait still. Some days are harder than others as I'm sure you all know 🥹
  21. Yeah I always think it's better to do now rather than under the pressure and time limit of an RFE. Let us know how it goes
  22. They will not schedule a K-1 visa appointment for you. The NVC only does that for immigrant visas. You will have to schedule the appointment yourself, but some embassies make you wait until they send you an email with instructions. That's why I tagged the person in the comment above because I don't know if Montreal makes you wait or not. Manila did not make us wait, we were able to sign up to the appointment website, fill out the DS-160, pay the fee and start searching for available appointments as soon as our case went to "Ready" status
