US Immigration from Canada

My fianc and I are waiting for his K1 interview at the Montreal Embassy. He was previously here on a J1 visa from September-December 2018 but hasn t spent the entire 2 years in Canada due to him being a student in the UK from January-June 2019. We re almost 100% sure he isn t subject to the 2 year Home residency requirement because Canada isn t on the skills list, he didn t receive graduate medical training, and his program was 100% funded by his parents and it says personal funding on his DS-2019 which we plan to bring to the interview. Unfortunately he doesn t have his J1 visa because the consular officers at the border took his visa (apparently that s what they do with Canadians) and his DS-2019 isn t marked either. I m still very paranoid that he ll be denied due to the 2 year rule and was wondering when in the K1 process they look at that? Do they look at the K1 interview or during adjustment of status? I ve heard different things about when they would check? And how would they check? Do they have a copy of his J1 visa? Will they ask for his DS-2019 and make a determination there? What if his J1 visa wrongly states he s subject as what I ve seen with many people? How could they make a determination based on that?

When I filed the I-129F, it was pre-Covid and I selected India - Mumbai as the site for the K1 interview for my fiance. When we filled out the D-160 we once again requested it for Mumbai. She is an Indian citizen which is why we had chosen Mumbai as the interview site; however, she is in Canada for the past few years and is there now on her work permit. Is it possible to have the paperwork sent from the NVC (it is still there due to the Covid delay) to Canada instead of India? The Canadian K1 process seems to be restarting while there is no idea when India will reopen.

If it is still possible to change the interview site, would she even be allowed to interview in Canada as she is not a Canadian citizen or have Canadian PR.

So I called a month or 2 ago and asked what the status of my case was and they said it was waiting to go to the embassy and they couldn't mail anything until the embassy opened up. I just called today to see if it was sent to the embassy because of the recent announcement that k1 is starting to process again. They told me my case went in administrative processing on June 16. It arrived at the NVC June 15th. He said he couldn't give me a time frame for when it would be out of administrative processing and said it wasn't guaranteed to go to the embassy. Is this just a normal phase in the process?

Hello everyone, so my fianc and I starting to look at the DS160 and were wondering what to put for this question: has anyone filed an immigrant petition on your behalf? About 10 years ago, my fianc s aunt had filed a petition for her sister (fianc s mom) and her family to come to the US. That is still in process and they have not yet received approval on that. However, my fianc has also aged out for that case since he s now over 21. Would this be an issue for our fianc visa? Would we just put yes and then explain in the commentary that the prior case is still in process but he has already aged out?

Thank you in advance.

So I m curious. My case has been at the NVC since early April. The State Department gave permission to start phased reopening for embassies over a month ago now But I ve only seen a few embassies actually start processing K1s, such As New Zealand, Jordan, Bolivia, and Taiwan. Are there any other countries I m missing that started? I ve also heard that Jordan later removed the k1 visa processing after they put it initially. So what s going on? Are there ANY countries that are actually processing?
