Update: He made a separate account for his daughter and scheduled her appointment the same day/time as his. However, the Embassy website in France seems to be having difficulty today and when he went to print the confirmation, the site crashed and he lost the page to print the confirmation. He did manage to print the confirmation for his daughter though. He currently has a ticket in for that and to ask if all is well for his and his daughters simultaneous interviews. If anyone has any info or tipe, it's greatly appreciated!

Is there a way for my Fiance to shedule the K2 interview for his daughter on the same day as his K1 interview? Are these scheduled separately or should he just bring his daughter with him to the K1 interview along with the DS160 completed? I know now that the K1 is a non-immigrant visa. Is the K2 considered an immigrant visa? He's trying to schedule these now and running into some difficulty. He's 6 hours from Paris so he'd like to get it all done in the same day if possible. TIA for any help here!

Thank you Crazy Cat!

I'm sorry in advance if this is the wrong tab to post this under... I wasn't sure. So as of October 25, USCIS has sent our file to the Dept. of State. (I suppose this is the same as NVC?) I was looking at the timeline and noticed that there are more fees for processing: Immigrant Visa Application Processing Fee Affidavit of Support Fee. (above from the NVC website) FYI_ We did not receive the Welcome Letter yet from NVC... just the USCIS case update that they sent on the file. I'm just trying to get everything in order for when we do receive the Welcome Letter. I know that we don't pay these fees until we receive the letter from NVC. Oh, and question on that note: who will receive this Welcome Letter? My Fiance or me? Does anyone know if we must pay these processing fees twice? (As in: Once for my fiance and once for his daughter?) I don't see it clearly explained how dependent children intending to come with the K1 Visa beneficiary are supposed to be handled in the paperwork process. Any info is greatly appreciated. TIA!

That is very helpfull, thank you! I had thought that timeframe was a hard/fast rule. I''m relieved to hear that they do give extensions. Thanks again for all the helpful info!

9/4 to 1/3 is not 6 months? It's 4 months and we're now down to less than 3. That is a very short amount of time to coordinate two all day trips for my fiance to go to Paris and first get his and his daughters medical appointments done and then the interview process. So perhaps I misunderstood how much time we have by that document to do what... or perhaps you misunderstood what I meant by not having much time. In any case, good luck to you!

Thank you for the info! 💜 Congratulations to you as well!

I received our I129F approval letter with a notice date: 09/04/2024 The Approval notice states that it is valid until 01/03/2025 When I check the status of our case on USCIS it says only that we were approved. It says nothing about the approval being sent to NVC. We don't have a lot of time before the I129F expires and there's still a lot to do. How long do I wait to contact someone to check if we have a NVC case number? Would I contact USCIS for that? I tried calling today but it was only an automated system that sent me in circles with no new information. I read all of the information that I could find here and it seems that around now is when we should have notification that USCIS sent our file to NVC. What happens if the I129F expires before they give us a NVC case number or before my fiance gets an embassy appointment? I'm sorry if this question gets asked a lot. I did look around and found similar questions but all with different circumstances. Thank you in advance for any helpful information! Tracy
