Hello all,

I'm really confused here. Please help!

we got NOA2 on March 8th.

On April, NVC received our case and forwarded it to the embassy.

the case staus changed from "in transit" to "ready"

The case status was "ready" since around april 15th. (that means the embassy received the case right?)

Until 4days ago the case status changed into "administrative processing"

My first question is when am I supposed to fill out DS-160? I haven't receive packet3 yet. I thought I need to receive packet3 before i fill out the form

my second question is what is going on with "administrative processing"?

.. :oops::clock:

Welcome to the forum.

:guides: easily accessible at the top of the forum page. In particular, the K1 Flowchart: http://www.visajourney.com/content/k1flow.

Everybody goes through admin. processing, some petitions/applicaltions just take longer than others.

Stop in at the China Regional Forum, get acquainted, and check out some of the recent activity at the GUZ consulate: http://www.visajourney.com/forums/forum/94-china/

Good luck on your immigration journey.
