Hi,

 

I'm very new here and need some clarification on this.  I received an email w/ an attached letter from NVC about 2 weeks ago stating our petition is being forward to U.S. Embassy in Cambodia and it may take several weeks.  I was told to wait to hear from the U.S. Embassy first before doing anything at all and others have told me I can continue w/ the process of completing the DS-160, pay the visa fee, schedule an interview appointment online and everything else that we need during the interview.  I'm confused by what we actually need to do now, but my fiancé has already completed the DS-160 online and have the confirmation page.  He has also registered on the cgifederal website and printed out the deposit slip for the visa fee.  So my question is, do we go ahead pay the visa fee and schedule an appointment online OR don't do anything else beyond what my fiancé has already done until we hear from U.S. Embassy in Cambodia? 

 

I've been getting conflicting information regarding this and your prompt response would be appreciated to clarify this for us.  Thank you in advance!

Country-specific thread is moved from the K-1 Process forum to the Asia/East & Pacific regional forum.

----------

Have you looked at the consular reviews (links atop any VJ page) for Cambodia?  You should find instructions or at least more enlightenment there.

06-04-2007 = TSC stamps postal return-receipt for I-129f.

06-11-2007 = NOA1 date (unknown to me).

07-20-2007 = Phoned Immigration Officer; got WAC#; where's NOA1?

09-25-2007 = Touch (first-ever).

09-28-2007 = NOA1, 23 days after their 45-day promise to send it (grrrr).

10-20 & 11-14-2007 = Phoned ImmOffs; "still pending."

12-11-2007 = 180 days; file is "between workstations, may be early Jan."; touches 12/11 & 12/12.

12-18-2007 = Call; file is with Division 9 ofcr. (bckgrnd check); e-prompt to shake it; touch.

12-19-2007 = NOA2 by e-mail & web, dated 12-18-07 (187 days; 201 per VJ); in mail 12/24/07.

01-09-2008 = File from USCIS to NVC, 1-4-08; NVC creates file, 1/15/08; to consulate 1/16/08.

01-23-2008 = Consulate gets file; outdated Packet 4 mailed to fiancee 1/27/08; rec'd 3/3/08.

04-29-2008 = Fiancee's 4-min. consular interview, 8:30 a.m.; much evidence brought but not allowed to be presented (consul: "More proof! Second interview! Bring your fiance!").

05-05-2008 = Infuriating $12 call to non-English-speaking consulate appointment-setter.

05-06-2008 = Better $12 call to English-speaker; "joint" interview date 6/30/08 (my selection).

06-30-2008 = Stokes Interrogations w/Ecuadorian (not USC); "wait 2 weeks; we'll mail her."

07-2008 = Daily calls to DOS: "currently processing"; 8/05 = Phoned consulate, got Section Chief; wrote him.

08-07-08 = E-mail from consulate, promising to issue visa "as soon as we get her passport" (on 8/12, per DHL).

08-27-08 = Phoned consulate (they "couldn't find" our file); visa DHL'd 8/28; in hand 9/1; through POE on 10/9 with NO hassles(!).

I have looked, but no answers I was looking for.  Hence the posting.  I will continue to look though.  Thanks!

It's been a year now I assume your case is done and you are living happily in The States now. Can you give me some advice, how long do I have to wait after I paid Visa fee, $265 in order get more information from US Embassy about medical examination and interview?
