US Immigration from Canada

Hey there,

I'm a Canadian applicant of a K1 Visa with intent to immigrate to the US. My fiancee and I received our NVC Case # Mid-March 2021, and have been waiting to receive our email/letter. But when I go to ceac.state.gov.iv to check my application status, the only thing it shows is instruction to fill out a DS-160. Is this normal?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Hi! I read we need a police criminal record check for the K1 interview - there are a few different types of police checks. Does anyone know which one to get and what that process is like?

My fiance is in Canada and legally changed his last name quite a few years ago. All of his documentation has his new last name including his birth certificate. Does he need to provide his name change paperwork? On the application, I did put his previous last name as it asked for any other names. Thanks in advance!

Hello.

I'm here to share my concern about the K1 application.

We submitted the K1 in March 2020, and received the NOA2 in November 2020. Until now, the case is still at NVC after its approval. It's been almost 6 months and we have no clue when and whether the case will be sent to the consulate in Montreal Canada. Do we have people here around the similar timeline? My worry is that the NOA2 would be expired at some point and the entire K1 process becomes invalid. Thank you for advising.
