Hi!

First I want to say thank you for this resource and all the help that people give here.

I have filed for my sweetpea's K1 and the I-129F was approved and forward to NVC in Manila. However after getting approved both of us encountered medical issues. She developed a lung infection where we felt it would be better to avoid the medical screening until that was cleared. Naturally this also depleted my savings having to look after both of us (which I am happy to do and I am grateful that we are both are well now). My income is well above the minimum, but again my savings is gone now. I have filed for an extension for the validity of my petition.

My question is, and since there is only 3 weeks left on my approval right now, is should I just resolve that I must start the process all over again? What pitfalls do you guys see with me having to submit again or am I just worrying for nothing?

No need to start over. You requested an extension and you can expect it will be granted. If you need a second one, given your reason, it should be granted too.

Facts are cheap...knowing how to use them is precious...
