Still waiting on paper notification.

My daughter received the appointment for interview to Bogota Colombia embassy and when we call for the Dr appointment

they told us she need a urine test but 8 day before and 8 day after , her menstrual period but my daughter it is irregular that means she have problems with it her appointment is 11/2/2021

they dont give her option just to cancel her appointment in the embassy this is crazy .

If you have the same problem ? what is your recommendation thanks so much

I am looking for a table of the process time for I601 and I212. I know they are handled by the Nebraska office but it would be good to have the experiences of the forum members who are in this process. Thanks if anyone wants to share their experience.

Due to COVID delays in processing my step-daughter-to-be turned 21. Let's call her Mary.

Today we got the email from the Embassy in Bogota, Colombia saying it is time to apply for the visas. The email listed by fianc e and her 10 year old son by name but it did not list Mary. It didn't say she was denied either. Does this mean Mary is being denied due to aging out? Has anyone had any luck appealing a decision to deny a K2 visa due to aging out due to COVID processing delays?

I had written to my congressional representative's office and they were of the opinion that such delays should not count against her but that opinion is not a guarantee.

The U.S. Citizenship Act of 2021 Sec. 3107 is on point and would address this aging out problem for K2 visas but that has not passed yet.

Aargh.

My wife is a Colombian national. I am a US citizen. We are waiting for approval. After approval and we are in the US can she return to Colombia to give birth and stay a couple of months? She is not pregnant now but could be when we arrive in the US. Thanks.
