K-1 expedite request

[KemalTuanaYalcin 16]

Here is some information I found on reasons that you may request for expediting a K-1 Visa:

REVIEW THE USCIS EXPEDITE CRITERIA.

Visit the official USCIS web site. According to the USCIS (Department of Homeland Security), cases may be expedited if they meet any of the following criteria:

- Serious financial hardship

- Humanitarian situation

- Extreme emergent situation (emergency)

- Matter of national interest or security (Request must be made by a US government official)

- USCIS error or compelling USCIS interest

- Request by non-profit organization for the sake of US cultural and social interests

HI. I filed my 129 in december and I get to go for the interview in 2 weeks as my expedite was granted. I had to call uscis a few times, I had a medical reason and the violence in Mexico reason. I guess I got lucky! Good luck, its worth a shot!

wow, file the packet and the next day the aunt in town calls. (my fiance aunt.) the uncle went in the hospital for pneumonia and kidneys failing. Plus her mom (aunt's mom) is sick. I rushed to get packet in so I could get process started. but what a way to start the weekend. I was was ready to head back to the village for a while and just relax.... then on top of that my ex works at the hospital where the uncle was admitted. So I never got a chance to get by this weekend since my ex was oncall and I had the boys all weekend.... I found out e is going home tomorrow.... but what a wild ride right after filing....if it goes like this for 4 to 6 months. I will be pulling my hair out. Also, the fun fact is my boys think she will be a better cook then me. Wonder how much they really like rice for each and every meal????
