We FINALLY scheduled our K-1 visa interview at the embassy in Bogota. You have to create an account and get your DS-160 first. https://ais.usvisa-info.com/en-co/niv
 
Then after you do that, create an account on that website and schedule your interview. If it doesn't let you schedule it, email them at: asa_contactus+co+ivcasenumber@visaops.net 
And include the following in your email:
1. Subject: Case number is not ready to be programmed. 
Full name of the applicant:  Applicant's date of birth:  Scanned copy of the appointment notification letter you received from the National Visa Center (NVC) or the Kentucky Consular Center (KCC) or letter of instructions you received from the Consular Section.  I included my NVC approval and attached it to the email as proof. 
 
Buena suerte!
Follow our visa journey!

Hello , latest update
 
https://www.cibercuba.com/noticias/2017-10-24-u73624-e73624-embajada-eeuu-bogota-iniciara-tramites-visa-cubanos-noviembre?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=facebook&utm_campaign=Noticias

Once the I-129F is approved, the petition will be sent to NVC, get assigned a case number, then sent to the embassy. Those steps take about a month.
 
From then on out, the process is embassy-specific. Typically they send a notification via mail or email to the beneficiary with the next instructions (aka "packet 3" (pre-scheduling) or "packet 4" (interview instructions)). The general steps (not necessarily in this order), are:
Pay the $265 MRV fee (aka "DS-160 fee" or "K-1 visa fee") Complete a DS-160 Schedule/Complete a medical examination by a panel physician Schedule the interview Attend the interview If you were missing documents or they need additional verification of something, you will get a 221g, pending additional documents being sent in and reviewed Go through Administrative Processing (AP)...every case has this so don't get worried if you see it...it's usually only a few days, sometimes a few weeks, and rarely longer (you'll see the longer ones on VJ more often than they normally occur, so don't get scared!). Get the passport with K-1 visa attached + the sealed envelope to present at POE POE Marriage within 90 days of entry File for AOS ($1225) Unfortunately, I don't have Juarez's packet info for the specifics for your embassy. I will refer to https://mx.usembassy.gov/visas/fiancee/how-to-apply/, which lists the steps. The beneficiary will get a packet 3 with steps prior to the interview. Here is one from 2014 I found....this is a good read to get an idea of what you will need, but it may be outdated so be sure to follow the one that the beneficiary should receive for the actual interview.

This is a repost from May to give the information to everyone!
---------------------------
Good News Everyone, I made a mistake! 
 
@June2017UKtold me there were duplicates in June. And I will input corrected numbers in this post.
However, Why does this important for May Filers?? 
Because I manually put every April and May approval of 10/24 and realized a few things.
 
1) I am 99.9% sure some of April RFE's were to gain time.
     Other than 2 of the April approvals & RFE's from yesterday was already RFE'd. 
     Some were responses BUT some were really weird. Such as the case that got RFE on 10/23 and approved on today.
     Some RFE's changed to approval without status change to "RFE received" 
2) I am certain their system is not working properly.
    We already know this by people here telling us, however, now I am certain there are way more of these cases than we thought.
3) I am guessing some new trainee or other people are at work, and their training period might have also affected April Filers.
     This also has the affect on RFE levels, they keep RFEing more than once, some of them late in the game, so I believe some RFE's are without screening the whole petition. What I read in the past was most of the time you get 1 RFE and it usually covers everything if given in 2 close timeline.
 
Now as I am going to post this in all months;
 June Filers from my estimate, depending on things picking up to 700+ per week, your cases should start in 2-3 weeks.
 Yes it is longer than expected. However, this week and next week supposed to be May's peak time.
 
 July Filers should have a rather easy process however we cannot predict the effect of holidays.
 Although there may be some case workers coming back from holidays with bunch of status updates (all fingers are crossed ladies and gentlemen)
 
 Now the numbers;
   Virgin cases (As I'll be calling received cases from now on, cause why not? ) of April is going down slowly, 
   However, RFE's are moving way faster. But May has the weekly 70%, which is good for May filers, as most will finish eventually but awful for rest of us, for now.
 

  
 
So when did the April started to pick up? Because It was really hard for me to believe it took this long for them.
 And obviously this is way more fun than what I am supposed to be doing at work (Let's thank to the 16 hour time difference that I am awake and my fiance is not...) So I did this 
 

 
It's ok... I'm known to be crazy.. My future mother in law is as crazy so they accepted me extremely easily...
Sooo I also did this cause I wanted to see a possible peak point! (by then I was hoping I had a predictive analysis software on my PC... but they don't let me use my work PC )
 

 
So Everyone let's gather around and whichever power you believe in start doing your thing!
Cause for your sake and ours and all the future K1s.. and probably your AOS to GC.
 We need 700s and then some (at least a few) 1000s...
 
 (Have I mentioned I used to work as a fortune teller in a Turkish Coffee shop when I was in high school? Yeah nah, we say don't believe in it so you won't get hurt; but listen to it so you will have hope)
     
Now the links (UPDATED)
  I did check all the links, and the data. However, mistakes happen.
 If you have any concern or can't find your number, or seen duplicates, please let me know!
