Finally mailed application. Am so happy and now the waiting game begins. What next am I to expect?

Track your package to the lockbox to ensure they received it. Once they receive your application package they will scan the necessary documents into the system. They will cash your check and send you a notice which is referred to as the NOA1. That notice does come until 2-4 weeks after they receive your package. Other than that.....

 

We need a little housekeeping on your end. Many of our answers are predicated on the information you supply in your profile. When we look at the left column and can't determine your timeline OR your Embassy it's hard for us to give you a factual answer. Our answers will sometimes be tailored to a specific Embassy hence the reason for you to complete your profile. If you look at the profile of others here, they have a flag for their country, so it makes it easy for us to reply as we can quickly determine their Embassy. The country that should be used is the country where the interview will take place.
 
So, if you could help yourself out and complete your profile that sure would help us out when we want to reply to your question with factual information.

Once you finish that then return and you will see a flag in your profile. Select it and see what wonderful information will open up for you.
 
Thanks, and Good luck and stay engaged.

I had another quick question that I don’t think really matters at this point in time, but I would just like to know when I may need to do something. Fiancé is finishing school in Japan and will be there until mid next year—however may have to return to South Korea (country of citizenship) sooner than that, thus the visa interview/consulate location would likely be different.

 

should this be the case (sorry as I’m only speaking in hypotheticals, I was just hoping for advice), would I not contact someone until the case arrives at the NVC about the change of consulate? 
 

thanks as always!

If the file is at NVC it's best to call them to arrange for transfer. If the case is at the embassy, then you must contact the embassy for the transfer to take place to the new embassy. Keep in mind you may experience longer transfer time if the file is at the embassy. Some say 20-60 days delay. NVC just turns your record around before shipment to the new requested embassy.

Package arrived today. I did not send a check. Instead I sent a form G-1145 so I will wait to see the charge on my credit card !

You meant to say that you used Form G-1450, Authorization for Credit Card Transactions and not G-1145 E-Notification of Application/Petition Acceptance. :thumbs:

If you find anything not up to date or the information is wrong, please share your findings. Please compare the date of the P3 of mine with the date from your copy, once you receive yours from your embassy. Keep in mind that I try and be factual with my information, but I can't do it on my own and that's where you come in and can give back to the community those who come behind you. Without others ahead of you I would not be able to provide this to you.  I can only share factual information if folks like you continue to be my eyes and ears for your embassy. I wish you much success in your visa journey.
