Hello, fellow VJ members.

 

I am happy to tell you that I was approved my visa after more than 2 months of waiting on ''Administrative Processing''.

 

This is the happiest day me and my fiancee had in a long time.

 

Thank you so much for all the help! We are probably one of the last folks that were still waiting from August.

 

Thank you so much and we wish you all the best!

Awww
Congratulations!!!!!!!!! So happy for you

I think we were the last ones from July 2017.

 

We were "APPROVED" today in Juarez. 

 

Our interview took 384 days from our I-129F NOA1 date.

 

Hang in there! 

 

Thanks everyone, without the help of many of you we would not have reached this milestone.

Congratulations.  Just came back to see if there was still any activity in this thread.  Looks like everyone is moving on to better things now.  Good luck! - Jason

Your not alone.We did an appeal and it was sustained last week.It is at the USCIS at the moment.We are still hopeful and patient waiting for positive results.

Case Was Relocated From Administrative Appeals Office To USCIS Originating Office

On October 10, 2018, the Administrative Appeals Office (AAO) transferred your Form I-129F, Petition for Alien Fiancé(e), Receipt Number WAC*********, to the USCIS office that made the original decision on your case. That office will mail you our decision or send you a request if it needs something from you. If you move, go to www.uscis.gov/addresschange to give us your new mailing address.

I'm sorry things didn't work out. There is someone out there for you but he/she hasn't appeared before you. Do this to insure there are no problems if you do another K1.

 

To withdraw a petition, you must send a signed written statement requesting that the petition be withdrawn and explaining the reason to the NVC. When writing, include as much of the details to the reason why you are requesting the removal of the petition. Be sure to include any Receipt Numbers, Alien Number or Embassy case numbers to help in the location of your record.
 

NVC has your case file info in the SAFEFILE system. When you do your "next" K-1 it may look suspicious that you are "dumping one" for another. Your casefile will hit the IV Unit, the SAFEFILE version is also reviewed during your "next" K-1 interview. These are all "red" flags so walk cautiously and be sure to discuss this completely with your new GF. She WILL BE asked at her interview. If she is not confident this could go "south" fast and end up denied and at that point your pretty much "dead in the water".
 

Once you receive notification that your case has been withdrawn, you need to insure that NVC has annotated SAFEFILE so, call NVC and get a supervisor, request that they review your SAFEFILE to determine if the I-129F has be withdrawn. If not, ask them to make an annotation in the SAFEFILE version that the petitioner has withdrawn the petition. That way it insures that USEM Manila IV will see that annotation.
 

It's also recommended to email the IV unit at your Embassy, requesting that the I-129F petition be withdrawn.
 
Any returned correspondence you receive be sure to make copies and keep in a safe place as you will need it during the processing of your next application.
 

Good luck

@Greenbaum it was in regards to your post above advising me to write a withdrawal. I was asking how what do I write in the letter without stating too much? We have a child together so not sure if will make up later. But if we do, how would this affect future filing for him?

The letter is a formal business type letter and all you need is to ask them to remove you from the filing of the K-1 because you are not moving forward with the K-1 visa as the relationship no long exist. Be sure all the information is contained in the letter so they can find it easily. This action will allow you to apply for a new K-1 with someone else or to begin again a K-1 with your current/past person without any problems. Not doing this could lead to problems in the future.
