K1 Administrative Processing - Experience & Timeline

[IndiaAnnie 163]

Visa Journey Friends,

 

Is there any statistical information or tracking available on "Administrative Processing" dates, reason and resolution through this site?

 

I want to share general (anonymous) info with my Congressman who is supporting us and interested in legislation to assign a timeframe and process around "K1 Administrative Processing".

If you are in "AP" or have been would you please post the following info:

 

1. Date of "AP" (221g) Notice

2. Embassy Location

3. Reason for AP (or unknown at this time)

4. Date Communication Received/Advisement on Resolution Steps

5. Date resolution submitted

We were in AP for around 3 weeks at the Auckland embassy because the medical hadn't arrived (even though it arrived the day after interview).  Eventually it was resolved and the visa was issued just fine.

This might not help you much, but in the interest of getting legislation passed to create a timeline for Administrative Processing, I'll share anyways. We have a K1 visa going right now (just filed in December '17) and are waiting on our NOA2. However, back in December 2016, my fiancé applied for a visitors visa to come and visit me here in the US. He was put into AP the day of his interview at the embassy in Oslo, Norway and has been stuck there ever since. We have both made several inquires to the embassy and always get the same standard response, and I've gotten my local senators and congressmen to make inquiries on our behalf. They have been receiving the same response from the embassy as my fiancé and I have, so that hasn't seemed to help thus far. I am hoping this won't also become a problem when my fiancé has his K1 interview, hopefully sometime this coming fall. My fiancé was born in Iran, but has been a Norwegian citizen now for quite a few years. I'm pretty sure this is what's is causing the never ending hold up as far as his visitor's visa goes.
