Hi everyone,

My boyfriend has recently applied for a fiance visa for us. but the problem I have is that, I have another case running.

in year 2007 my mother applied for my immigration to US. my category is F1. and last year it got approved and I am supposed to wait till my PD gets current.

but the visa bulletin moves very slow. so my boyfriend and I got decided to go for the fiance visa.

my question is that is it possible for me to get visa? we got a lawyer told us there is no problem having two cases at the same time.

but I am not sure if the officer in embassy approves my visa.

do you guys have any idea about my situation? I am really worried and tired of waiting :(

Thank you

You should be fine but be sure and be ready to explain your reason for having two cases so they don't think your just trying to imigrate by any means. This could cause some red flags

Thanks a lot :) I hope everything goes fine in the interview.

Have you chosen your filing location yourself or Vermont Service Center is allocated to you randomly? because I've heard some of the centers are more crowded than the others. Like California which is crowded and the process is slower.

It depends on where the petitioner lives, some go to california service center, some to Vermont . And the slow process thing rotates. When we were getting our k-1 Vermont was the slow one

I didn't want to start a new topic. Just pick up where the original poster left off...I wanted to know, in the event of two cases at the same time if a visa is denied in one case, is there a waiting time that the person must wait before returning to the embassy for an interview?

I have an interview in a few weeks for one visa class but awaiting NOA2 (RFE issued yesterday) in the K1 visa category. If I am denied a visa in a few weeks would securing an interview and k1 visa approval be an issue say in 4 -6 months?

Hi,

Your situation is completely different from this thread from 2012. The OP has two different paths to the U.S. You are asking about using the same path twice.

If you get denied, the case ends. There is no way you will get another interview and an approval in 4-6 months. You have to deal with why the K-1 was denied.

Hi thanks for responding. I guess I wasn't clear. I have an interview for an f4 visa in a few weeks with a k1 at USCIS waiting for NOA2. RED received yesterday.

It would depend why it was denied. There is no required waiting time in applying for a visa but again, it would depend why the first one was denied (if it is).

Thanks! Like the OP my fiance didn't want to wait. I was planning on taking our petition with me to the interview just in case any questions came up.....but the k1 case is still at USCIS.

Thanks again
