they take her passport.. the American first question was how she defined her relationship to her f.. and she paused for almost a minute..maybe that's it or the age difference..? no they said docs are complete so she is not 221g.. they don't tell her the reason why they need to review her case..

What visa is she chasing?

fiance visa

..hello.. my friend had her interview last Jan 28.. the consular didn't say she is approved and she asked if she is. but the consular said we need additional review for your case. ..she asked if her documents is the problem and they said no. your documents are complete ..and they won't tell her the real reason.. can somebody tell me what's the possible reason why they need the additional review. her status says administrative proceesing until now..hope somebody can help her understand why.thanks

Stuck at NVC for over 8 weeks? Not fun, I'm sure.

Please give us an update when it finally makes it outa there and over to the Embassy in Manila. Hopefully that's already happened as I see your post is from late November. Please update if you can. Cheers

Filipinos can get into (south)Korea for 30 days visa free, if they have a visa to the U.S.

That's the way it was when I checked a few months back.

Should be able to visit with sister without an issue I would think.

Aww.. That is a good news.. Thank you..

u need to call nvc to get your manila case number.. but after 3 weeks of approval the petitioner will receive the nvc letter which the manila case number is already in that letter.. then after you got the case number go to ceac and check your status online..put your case number..and ic it says ready meaning your case is in manila already..

yes korea needs a visa.. and i already called korean embassy about getting a 2 days visa but i dont have a work.. im unemployed and one requirements to get a korean visa is i need to have a job..so i asked them if i can go out from the airport to seoul and they said yes i can.. but most k1 i asked they said i cant.. i dont know which is true..

thank u so much for the quick and so informative answers guys.. i appreciate it.. and yes my fiance want me to stay there for 2 days but not sure if i can.. and i will do what u suggest.. thanks.. another question...is my sister can be able to hang out with me inside the airport ?

hello ! my fiance will book a ticket and the layover will be in korea.. i am under k1 and my sister lives in seoul korea.. my question is when the time i get to korea lets says layover will be 11hours-2days can i visit my sister in her house in seoul and stay there while im waiting on my next connecting flight? can i do that without a problem? thanks

Would be better if he signed it. Have him sign another copy and email it to you.

Most don't, they are done online with electronic signature.

Wow! Yey! Congrats! After 2 months. It's a really good news. I'm happy for you guys

Visa status "Issued". woooh!!! yey!

thank u elle&kyle and congrats

yay!!!! on to the final steps!!

yes! on to the final steps..

congrats so how long did it take after your noa how long was the process stuck at nvc for?

they wont tell us the reason why we got ap.. noa2 is sept 17 nvc received it oct 8 and left nvc dec 5

hello guys!! finally status says in transit.. yay!! thank u Lord.. 2 months in ap..

And that is why this thread it titled STUCK @ NVC for AP Part II. It's for people on K1's who get yanked out of the queue for extra scrutiny. It can take up to a couple of months. There was a Stuck thread Part 1 which has lots of info on this as well.

As I've told gemspace, here and in PM's, we were in AP at NVC for the same length of time on our K1. A lot of people think K1's just breeze right through NVC, and that is where the confusion and worry sets in. It doesn't always happen that way.

Excellent! I did say it would happen! On to the next bit! :joy:

i am glad we are out of ap anymore.. thanks to all.. stress free

thank u cdneh

i am sooo happy now.. finally status changed to in transit.. thank you Lord..

The receipt we received does have the receipt number, WAC-14-***-*****, and a 10 digit number beginning with A in the beneficiary box with her name on the I-797 Notice of Action receipt. I believe this is known as the "A" number and is assigned to the beneficiary as a permanent alien registration number. If that is her case number I'm not sure but I know all immigrants get one of these.

Jim

thats your receipt number you received from uscis.. thats what u used to.check at uscis website...u will get your case number from the nvc and it will start from MNL1234567890

wonderful to hear! This process is hard but, we can do it!

thanks E-N and yes we can!!

hello everyone new user here just wanted to see if I can get some help I got my approval I-797 noa on October 23 and have yet to get anything from nvc not even a case number.I called nvc today and they said nothing shows on there computer about any information about my case and that's all they said to try an email my notice to them.So I called uscis and they said its been forwarded to nvc already anyone else have this proble its been over a month and they don't have any info about my case?

your still in the normal process.. some get their mcn after 2 months from approval.. just keep calling nvc..

Our application was sent to NVC on October 16. The I-797 says if you do not receive any correspondence from NVC within 30 days, you may contact the NVC by email at NVCINQUIRY@state.gov. I've sent three emails to that address and one to an additional email I learned of here on Visajourney. No replies to any of the emails..

I've tried their phone number. It's always busy.. except this morning around 9:30 a.m. when it was answered with a recorded message that said the information was not available.

Absolutely pathetc! I've been through this process before and all was smooth sailing....

Very disappointed! According to what I've read here there must be some additional processing....

yes.. its frustrating they didnt even replied our email ..we email them 1 month ago.. today is our 2 months.. unbelievable .. anyway u dont have a case number yet?

awww I am so sorry to hear about these challenges for you guys. This whole process makes us all stronger I tell you... keep your head up

thank u so much and yes this will make us stronger and now i know that he is willing to wait for me.. and this makes me love him more..

i'm so sorry to hear of the delays for you guys. Hopefully it resolves soon. Hope they did not lose your file!

i hope so too ..we keep calling but all they said is ap..i really hope they didnt lose it..we got affected and this thing make us frustrated that we always had an arguments lately..

Your Fiance needs to call them again,and keep calling them.

he always did cdneh but nothing change...we dont know what to do now

I know and no one has contacted you or given and further information? It could be name checks . So frustrating!

no.. nobody contacted us.. i think its checkname cause i dont have middle name on my birthcertificate. but i hope they send it soon..
