from AP to Application Received?

[Maxanne 7]

Hi everyone! I just checked my k1 visa status today.  It went from Administration Process to Application Received? What does that mean? Is it good? Thanks

If it went from Immigrant Administrative Processing to non-immigrant Application Received, that's good; it means the immigrant unit is done with your case. Next will probably be non-immigrant Administrative Processing, and then Issued.

Did you have additional document to turn in after your interview?

I checked it again and it says Non-Immigrant Administrative Processing. Fingers crossed, really. Thank you @DaveAndAnastasia 😊😊😊

Yes! After 2 weeks of my interview, they sent me a letter or 221g stating that they needed me to send them my passport. 

[Carpe Vinum 2,327]

They did not give you a 221g at interview? What did they say to you when you finished your interview?

[Carpe Vinum 2,327]

If you were given a 221g at the end of your interview and then sent this information in with your passport then Dave and Anastasia are absolutely correct. The immigrant unit is done processing the case and has referred the case to the non-immigration unit for issuing👍

Yes, the consular gave me a 221g after the interview then after 2 weeks gave me another one and asking for my passport. 😊😊

Thank you @boris64 ..highly appreciate the response. 😊😊

Hello. Same thing here. My case was moved to immigrant ap to non immigrant ap. My case created was changed too. What does this mean

It's a side effect of the dual nature of K-1s (they're non-immigrant visas with immigrant intent), which means different groups at the embassy/consulate work on them at different times.

 

The new case created date is when your case was created in the non-immigrant visa unit; until immigrant AP was finished, your case was being worked on by the immigrant visa unit. Usually (but not always), K-1s are only in non-immigrant AP for a very short time while they finalize paperwork and print your actual visa.

Hoping this is a good thing. I’m getting really anxious.

Thanks. I tried to check my status today but I could not get in to the system. I thought the system was down. Thanks @Dia pe, after I read your message and tried to go and check my status through non-immigrant instead of immigrant visa section and finally it says "ISSUED". Im just so happy right now. Thanks everyone for helping and giving us the right info. 😊😊😊
