Hello everyone! Our K-1 petition was approved on march 4th...and moved to NVC. I called the NVC on the 17th and spoke to someone there who told me that our petition was going thru "additional processing". Is that the same as "administrative processing"? Or...is this the normal processing procedure? I have heard of petitions being stuck in AP for days...and I'm just wondering if there is a difference between the two, or if I have anything to worry about.

Does anyone know about this?

Thanks for your time!!

Sorry to hear you are stuck at NVC. Unfortunately, many of us know about AP all too well. And not just stuck for days, but weeks. We were in for 52 days which is pretty much looking like the norm if you are stuck. Both terms mean the same thing. They can tell you when your case was received by them so you can get a feel of when you will be released.

Please join the group at the link provided by Joe & Nadya. It makes the wait a bit more bearable. :)

I can explain it to you. But I can't understand it for you.
