US Immigration from Hong Kong

Hi guys. Our k1 visa application is now at the final stage of scheduling an interview appointment with the local consulate after receiving the email from them this week telling us to proceed to schedule interview.

I have filled in my information and paid the fees in the system however we are not able to see the available dates on the scheduling page. Every time we check, it just says No Slots Available and has been like this way for 3 days. I called the consulate CS and they only told me to keep checking the page until there are available slots, and there s nothing else they could provide to help. Additionally, I have filed a feedback on the system raising this issue and now the feedback status just updated to Escalate to PMO (not quite sure what it means).

Well we will continue to check everyday and hopefully there are slots released very soon as we hope to complete the interview in early October but it looks like the slots are released randomly and we have to be always on the lookout.

Has anyone encountered similar situation when scheduling the appointment with the local consulate? Could you please share some of your experience with this ?

Hi guys. Our case was sent to NVC in June 17 and we submitted a public inquiry and got our NVC case number in July 14 but we have been checking the status online and our case is still At NVC. Do you know why it is taking so long for them to send the case to the local embassy? Thanks.

Ok, I need help. I have been trying to get a copy of the welcome letter that is sent after the I-130 is approved. The one they did send has been misplaced. I have tried on 6 separate occasions through the inquiry portal with no help. All I get is a computer generated email stating that a copy will be sent to my email within 2 business days, same exact email just with a different name. They did attempt to call me twice about the delay and the lack of progress on our case. Unfortunately, when they did call I was at a Dr's appointment with my phone turned off and I missed them. This welcome letter is the only document stopping my wife from getting her police certificate from the Hong Kong police (she works in Hong Kong) to continue on to get her interview scheduled. Other than the inquiry portal on their website, there isn't any other way to contact them which is completely ridiculous. I don't know where else to turn to for help. It's so very frustrating.

We submitted our I-129F with a Chinese passport copy but since I am getting my Hong Kong passport soon and I would like to use my Hong Kong passport for the DS160 Filing and attend the interview with it cause I want to travel with my Hong Kong passport.

Both passports state 'CHINESE' as my nationality, my name and DOB are all the same. Do you guys know if there will be any issues if I switch passport mid-process in this regard?

I have filled out the I-864 online and have a question about additional information.

I filled out the shaded areas on the form online and wanted to know if there is any other information I need to write in other than my signature.
