NVC sent docs to wrong country

[MichelleClark 0]

OK, so my fiance calls the NVC to check if they had recieved the docs from the USCIS.. they had and they had done what they needed to and they sent everything off (on 15 March) to Nairobi and we must wait to be contacted from this side... One problem... I am not in Nairobi, I have never been in Nairobi.

I really don't know why this happened. I met my fiance in the Seychelles while he was deployed there and I was on a 18 month work contract and we originally filed for our K1 while I was still living in Seychelles. I have since come back to SA. In Jan we sent a registered mail letter to USCIS to notify them of my change of address and we called and were told it was sorted... All I can think is the address wasn't changed and they looked at the map of the world and thought Nairobi is close to Seychelles let's send it there... but when filling out the paper work for the K1 pettion we stated we would go through the process at the Johannesburg consulate....bleeurgh so much of frustrations

So does anyone know what this will mean in terms of delays? or does anyone have any insight?

Thanks!

The embassy that does K-1 visas for Seychelles is Nairobi. So it looks like they missed your change of address/change of consulate notice. They didn't randomly send it to someplace nearby.
