[Sarthak 6]

Hello everyone finally my wait is over for my 221g today after 1 month 19 days of my interview and 1 month 10 days after i submitted my documents today the status on ceac website changed to issued. I hope all of you soon receive a similar news regarding the same.. it was a long journey but one worth it.. also I would like to thank all the members who gave me support and courage in this time

Hi Everyone, 

 

First of all,  I am so grateful to find such a strong support group.  You do not know this but everyone in this forum have given me hope in times of frustration and I hope to also help others by sharing our experience.    I am an American Citizen and filed for K1 visa for my Fiancé.   We have been waiting for almost 3 months now.  He had his interview on July 18 and was placed on AP.   

 

On October 29, his CEAC status changed to "Non Immigrant Visa , Application Ready" (I read this is a normal process - changing from Immigrant to Non Immgrant, then it will change again to Immigrant VIsa once his status is updated. But no update since Oct 29) .  He also received an email from the US Embassy in Cairo to send them his passport  through Aramex.  We sent it on Nov 4. 

 

Has anybody been asked to send their passport and what was the result?  I read on other forums that the Embassy can hold the passport for months without any updates. 

 

Any information helps! Thank you!

From what I have been reading for the last three years, i think you are done with the process and he will be issued very soon by GOD’s will

the change for immigrant to non immigrant is a definite sign in my knowledge plus they don’t really ask for the passport unless they are done 

So I will be telling you congratulations but cautiously because the rule is, it is not over until it is over and your visa is in hand and you are inside the states 

btw did the case creation date (first date on CEAC) change as well this last time?

I hope so too Ayman!  Yes, the case creation changed from May 11, 2018 (I believe this is when the US Embassy in Cairo received the approved I-129F) to  October 29, 2018 (same as status update date).

 

What is the status on your case?

Hello everyone and salam

as some of you may know, I am married to an American citizen, applied in Feb. 2016 and it was smooth until I got my interview scheduled in Jan. 2017 then I have been on AP since then

I got a call from the embassy about a month and a half ago asking me to send them new medical exam, new police certificate, my passport and resubmit the ds-260 online after they reopened it for me

i did that then once they received it they sent an email asking me to schedule an email, it was confusing because it was one of their molded emails like the thing u wud get from NVC so I emailed them and they said it is for retaking the oath (I guess it is since I resubmitted the ds-260) I scheduled it and attended last Sunday and the African American small cheerful man told me congratulations and that I will have my passport via aramex in two weeks after making me swear that the data is correct

got one update that day and another yesterday but nothing serious  

i hope this gives you some hope  prayers for everyone including myself

hang on there
