US Immigration from Panama

Hello all,

So our K-1 Visa process has been difficult so far.

NOA1 April 2020.

Received our NOA2 in March 2021.

In April 2021 our case was returned to the USCIS by the Dept of State. On July 6th 2021 our case was finally forwarded to the embassy in Panama by the NVC. We received our welcome package from the Panama Embassy and we were preparing our documents/scheduling an interview date. On July 15th 2021 we were informed our case was requested back by the NVC.

Called the NVC and was told that the case was requested to be returned by the USCIS. I have requested to speak to a Tier 2 officer at the USCIS but am still awaiting a call back (deadline August 30th 2021). I spoke with the NVC today (August 16th 2021) and was told they still have our case and that it is undergoing "Administrative Processing" before it will likely be returned to the USCIS.

Is any of this normal? What can we expect at this point? Our NOA2 has already expired, is that going to be an issue? Anything we can do at this point?

Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated. Feeling like we are getting nowhere. It is always one step forward, several steps back

Hi everyone, my wife and I filed for AOS a few months ago. We got a RFIE in the mail. Requesting a copy of her birth certificate. She s from Panama so her birth certificate is in Spanish. In that paper that the USCIS mailed us about the RFIE, it mentioned at the end of the 2 pages they sent me it said something about if you submit documents in any language other then English that we need to submit the original copy in the foreign language and a complete translation and that the translator needs to certify that the translation is complete and accurate and that he/she is competent to translate the paper to English. So does this mean that I need to take my wife s birth certificate to a certified translator to get it translated into English or can I just send the USCIS her birth certificate in Spanish????

Hello all,

We received our NOA2 from USCIS on March 11th 2021, on April 15th we got notification from the NVC that our case was returned to USCIS after we had sent an inquiry about our case a couple weeks prior. No information as to why it was returned to USCIS. On April 22nd 2021 USCIS received the case and the current status says "Department of State Sent Case to USCIS For Review". We immediately sent an inquiry but have not heard back. Does anyone have any idea why the case would be sent back to USCIS? Would that indicate an issue with our case? Something we did or something USCIS got wrong? We would appreciate any insight if anyone has experienced something similar.

Thanks,

Colin

My fianc arrived on a k-1 visa. We got married within the 90 days but we are about to submit our I-485 for adjustment of status after the 90 days. Is she unlawfully staying?? I m asking because I m the AOS form. There s a question that says Have you ever violated the terms or conditions of your non immigrant status???

im just confused and stressed out. Thanks

Hello everyone. Any tips to connect with a Tier 2 officer these days? We were able to a few months ago, but it seems something has changed. We ve been waiting for a callback since Jan. 22

USPS lost our interview notice and we need to find out the interview date/time. We ve filled out the USCIS form, USPS has been unresponsive, tried USCIS Emma chat, and called many times only to be told that we have to wait for a Tier 2 to call us and there is no way for a Tier 1 to connect us to a Tier 2.
