K1 admin process

[Stephen223 7]

Did my interview for a k-1 on the 24-10-19, interview was OK, they didn’t take any of my supporting documents like job letter and bank statements instead VO gave me a 221g asking me to email the 2018 tax documents (w2 and transcript), and send the police certificate which I didn’t have in hand because it got delayed due back lags caused by them transferring to a new location. Anyways I acquired all the documents and sent them the same evening. Case has been in AP ever since, it was updated once exactly a week after the interview tomorrow will make two weeks. Any inputs?

Unfortunately, no one really knows how long Adminstrative Processing will be. It varies from case to case; for some it's days while for some it's weeks.

 

It also depends on the embassy/consulate; some have longer Administrative Processing than others.

 

You can check out this regional sub-forum, where you may find similar cases:

You just have to wait. There is no specified timeframe. Probably you wait for someone to get around to finally resume working on this case. Could be few more days or weeks but they will get back to it eventually

Has it changed to nonimmigrant?

No

Then still in ap in the IV unit.  Once it changes then that is a clue that they have sent it to the NIV unit for finalizing

It all depends on the case in hand, because everyone's case is different.  All you can do is just wait unfortunately.  Hope you have an answer soon!

The consulate likely has several other cases to process. When yours is not complete, rather than wait solely for you to respond, they likely started working on another case. Now, you may have to wait until they can get back to your case. Keep in mind this is a bureaucracy....

You don't have any more responsibility except to wait. AP is a process that you can't hurry, you don't when it will be completed and you have done your part. Sit back and wait.

 

Have you used your case number on ceac.state.gov use "immigrant" to see status and if that returns nothing found then try "non-immigrant". Once it goes to NI you are close to getting your visa ISSUED. Just need to wait.

They usually say within 90 days. Some people get a decision much sooner and some have to wait even a little longer. Nothing to do but wait at this point.
