Hi Zad,

Well, as I think you have done lots of research about your visa status to understand what's going on! mostly people after creation date changed and the visa status turned to nonimmigrant will go to Ready then to AP then to ISSUED which is the golden word nowadays since some people went to AP recently!

All the best for you bro!

Hello I am also applying for K1 in pakistan.

Could you tell me when you applied and how long its been for my reference?

[zad 0]

hello,

the whole process takes 210 to 230 days from the day 1 to interview.

i applied the k1 case in April 2016 and NVC transferred my case to Islamabad embassy on 2nd of Aug 2016 and US embassy Islamabad created my case on 16th Aug 2016, after submission of DS160 online form they asked me to send my passport and other documents in Sep and i received the interview letter on 28th Sep 2016 for 20th Nov 2016.

good luck

Unfortunately males from Middle eastern countries are usually in AP a little while longer than other countries. Hopefully it's nothe too long for you.

well, sometimes it takes a while to turn to AP then again to Ready then to ISSUED. however, there is no standard for this process, all you can do keep emailing the embassy to inquire about your status and call DOS might help you to understand sth.

have a wonderful day.

i emailed them but no reply, status remains the same on 7th day i don't understand why they opened my case on 16th if they didn't intend to do anything.Only thing they do is changing the update date which they regularly do on Monday
