This is a question for the embassy, you need the real facts.

If there is a way for you to complete your interview early that would be what I suggest.

When emailing the embassy you must use the correct format with required information.

VISA INFORMATION AND APPOINTMENT SERVICE

Philippines: (632) 976-8500, (632) 976-8501 or (632) 976-8502, Monday-Friday, 8:00a.m.-8:00p.m. (Except on Philippine and US Holidays).

(If you're calling from a landlines, dial 02 if you're outside Metro Manila. Within metro Manila just dial the 7 digit number. If from a cell phone either 02 then the number or +632 then the number )

US: (214) 571-1600, during 8:00 p.m. to 8:00 a.m. (Eastern Standard Time), Visa Unit number.

GENERAL INQUIRIES:

(02) 976-8500, 8501, 8502

U.S. number: (703) 520-2235 for general inquiries and scheduling appointments only (K visa information and interview appointments are handled by the Immigrant Visa Unit). NO TELEPHONE inquiries on an applicant’s case will be entertained. All case-specific inquiries must be in writing. The call center is accessible from Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m., Manila time, except US and Philippine holidays.

Call Center customer service representatives are unable to provide advice, case status updates, or make determinations about legal aspects of cases. Callers are able to speak with an English-, Tagalog-, Ilocano-, or Cebuano-speaking operator.

.
To enable us to electronically sort the messages and provide better, more timely responses, you should follow the instructions below.

goodmorning. I would like to ask about aged out process. We're from Philippines my mom and I are now on process of medical examination. It happens that last march 16,2015 the result of my mom's xray has an abnormality and will need to undergo sputum that will take 2mons. I'm her dependent which is K2 and will be turning 21 this May 28,2015. We are so worried because we gonna laps out because of the medical. The result will that sputum test will be available on May 28 also and thats the day when I'm gonna turn 21. We will have the interview at US embassy on early June because we still need to finish medical which is the vaccination if the sputum test is negative. By the time we will interview I'm 21 already, is it consider aged out even if we are on process? And would the us consulate give consideration for this..

Hi,

The K-2 requires you to enter the U.S. before your 21st birthday. You will age out. There is nothing the U.S. Embassy can do to help you. Sorry.

They are K1/K2 filed using form I-129 whereas the CSPA covers all immediate relative visa petitions filed using form I-130 which is for a "Petition for Alien Relative" and the OP is not a relative of the USC who is petitioning the OP's mother for marriage in the USA. Therefore, CSPA does not pertain to her.

CSPA does not apply to the nonimmigrant K visas because there is no immigration petition.

K-2s must enter the U.S. before age 21. As long as the entry is before age 21, the K-2 can adjust.

You will turn 21 before the interview, so there is no way a K-2 can be issued.

Get the interview rescheduled.

I know someone who entered the US as a K2 and 21 years old at the time. Funny thing is, USCIS didn't allow him to adjust status with his K1 mom. He was sent back to the Philippines and his mom had to file i130 for him. He's now under the F2B category and still waiting.

I don't have a solution to the issue but I'm very curious about the outcome. Keep us posted please.

Good luck!

Can an applicant request an earlier visa appointment?

Requests for earlier appointments may be sent to support-philippines@ustraveldocs.com. Please note, however, that early appointment requests will be approved on a case to case basis (i.e., aging out cases, or in cases involving personal or medical emergencies),and only if visa interview slots are available.

I recommend calling asap if you haven't already done so. Good Luck. Keep us posted as to your progress.
