Still no Visa, we are on the 3rd week

[adamjan 1]

Hi everyone! I was interviewed and approved for K1 visa on June 17, and as of today (July 3) still no delivery. I've been reading posts of other people and the longest it took so far was 2 weeks. I live only an hour outside of Manila, and I've heard of people living in farther provinces who got theirs in 3 days.

I've been checking daily at the CEAC website for status updates and it's been "READY" for two weeks.

Should I be worried? Should I email them about my concerns? And If I do, who do I email? The waiting is very frustrating. Thank you.

I have the CEAC tracking on my list but its not the most detailed. The embassy tracking option is more detailed.
