My wife went back to Kenya to finish up the visa for our 9y/o daughter. After these painful months apart, I just received the document scans and see that the Consulate issued a K1 visa to the daughter. I thought it was to be a K2? BTW, my wife has her Green Card which has added to my mind's confusion. I am making a leap in saying that I will need to go through the whole AOS mess again but the only information I can find on K1 visas is based on the Fiancée process which doesn't appear to fit the situation. Any enlightenment would be appreciated!

The child's visa actually says K-1?

My Advice is usually based on "Worst Case Scenario" and what is written in the rules/laws/instructions. That is the way I roll... -Protect your Status - file before your I-94 expires.

WARNING: Phrases in this post may sound meaner than they were intended to be. Read the Adjudicator's Field Manual from USCIS

Does the "R" mean relative?

Contact the consulate and tell them the situation. If possible, have your wife make an appointment to see someone at the Consulate . Take the passport with the visa and the NOA2 and tell them of the error. Its possible that they made a mistake. Consulates are known to make typing errors and correcting them. Good Luck, this can be sorted out.

I've launched my inquiry this morning as soon as I saw it. Thanks for helping me confirm my suspicion of error.

I just got a reply from the Consulate to my email (with a scan of the visa attached) apologizing for their error. WOW, I can't believe any of these people would have admitted it. So, the journey continues by going in on Monday to see about this matter.
