K1 (IMMIGRANT)

[tirzaray 4]

Once again, I am asking for your input into our case. Fiance was approved 10/10.13, took his passport, was told to go back in 2 days. Long story short, was called to wait because of Ramadan. This was only to realize that it was administrative processing, which I think means more verification of documentation. Anyhow, it will be 4 months and still nothing. I am getting so nervous about all of this because it is useless to call. I did call service center because they did send him an e-mail saying case was not in Morocco. Therefore, what they told me when I called was that they would email me and will hopefully find out was is going on. Please let me know if this has ever happened and if it did, is there a solution?

Get your congress/senator involved with the issue!

Sounds like standard AP.

Do you mean DOS when you say, "service center?" It has been over 60 days you can call DOS and submit a service request. Now if they told you it is not in Morocco they should be able to tell you where it is physically located. They gave me weekly updates when my husband was on AP. I would try to find out if the file was sent back to USCIS or where it is.

Good luck,

ramadan was in july, not october

Probably meant Eid al-Adha but got mixed up because Ramadan has an Eid too, but good point because if she called and said Ramadan they'd be thinking July not October.

Odd, I can not say I practice my religion, quite the opposite, Deaths and Marriages only, but I would not confuse such things?

I think you are making an assumption that anyone who is engaged or married to a moslem , are also moslem. Although I know when Ramadan falls for my husband, I didn't know about October Eid until he was here with me. I also spent 5 years in Saudi Arabia in my youth and had many moslem friends and still didn't know. It's the same as my husband not knowing when Christmas falls or Easter. Now that he lives here and goes through the celebration with me he knows as well.

^{Why would you refer to a date using a religious holiday of a religion you were not a member of?}

^{Too weird.}

^{Well Christmas in the US, but seems very few Americans use Easter for example.}

^{But Christmas long ago moved away from a religious activity.}

I mean no disrespect, I was confused since I really never understood Eid or Ramadan and I will eventually have time to learn and learn really well (hopefully it will be mutual as well for him), know it will... My concern as of now is yes, it is DOS that I called and so is this where I call and put a service request? Also,thank you Destiny64 for clarifying that as well. One last question, what is the standard AP? My concern is if they will eventually give him a 2nd interview and if they do then he will have to go through another medical examination since it will expire soon but again, as mentioned earlier, he was approved, took his passport and it has been little over 4 months.
