Congratulations! Double celebration :D:dance:

Not yet. Had my interview last Jan 11 and the site's still reflecting "Ready". Hopefully it'll change to "Issued" in the coming days.

I just tracked my packet this morning, its out for delivery. Don't worry, yours will come to an issued status. Goodluck to us.

Congrats!! (Immigrant visas tend to reach the issued stage much faster than the K-1 ... makes us K-1 types jealous ) Very happy for you! Save Travels

The embassy does not want anything from NSO for your fiance. USEM only cares that he is a USC now. CFO may want a copy of his BC... copy. If he has a copy, have him email it to you, don't need a ne

Hopefully :) It's kinda weird cause the status right now is under "Administrative Processing". Isn't this for those who needed to submit additional supporting documents?

yeah.. We were trying to get there by 6:30 but was caught up in traffic, we got there before 7. then after a few minutes the line was already moving to go in. Yeah there were so many people last Monday, met a few girls on K1 and was helping 2 K2s who are to follow their mom.

Oh you must be a couple people behind me :D. I was wearing a white dress and a black blazer at that time.

Were you able to check the status of your visa?

Everyone has AP, most times it is only for a day or less, then it will got to READY and finally ISSUED (this is the actual moment of approval)
