Congratulations!!
 
Our interview will be March 8th unless something earlier opens up (it initially was April 1st) ~ I will be glad when this part of the process is done!

Hey June people! I hope there's not many of you still waiting now and if you are that your wait comes to an end soon.
 
Interview is just around the corner, March 11th and hopefully the last step to being able to move on to completing paperwork together instead of 3600 Miles apart over the phone. 

Hello to all my June friends. My fiance's interview was yesterday and she was approved. So glad this stage is over. I was present for the interview. Now I can finally sleep...😄

I noticed your interview date changed from April 1 to March 8!! were you guys able to find a cancellation slot?!

Thank you. Your appreciation is my motivation. 

INTERVIEW APPROVED!!! The questions were her age, my age, how many times I visit her, if I enjoy the Philippines, asked what my work is, asked my address, and asked where we plan to get married. She didn’t ask for any documents. Interview was less than 5 minutes.

Thanks for helping me out!!!
 
I'm so jealous... I wish we can set up an interview date already so we can start planning when to move and the logistics of it
 
Wishing you all the luck with the interview!!!!

The simple solution is don't set your expectations so HIGH. So when something doesn't go your way you won't have far to fall back. USCIS/NVC/Embassy are all meeting their expectations of getting you either approved or denied based on history (yours and theirs). JMHO.

Great explanation. They only change I would advise is that the file does go to the embassy regardless if there are open or closed appointment schedule. I'd rather have my file sitting at the embassy then NVC. JMHO. 

Hi, here to say my fiancé had his interview in Sydney today a short while ago and was approved 😃
About 8 months exactly from the date of our NOA1. 

Case changed to "Ready" this morning WOOT

Status finally updated to "Ready" today! Earliest appointment for South Korea is April 1st so we grabbed it! He will check for cancellations the next few weeks but we FINALLY have a date!!

Praying for all of you still waiting to be with your loved ones soon!! 🙏🙏🙏

And the person behind you that filed before you is depressed because you are moving faster then they. So where does it stop. Who gets to be first. What is fair. Hard questions to answer but something to think about.

It's not a science. The hack for DHL is buyer beware. Your mileage may vary. etc. etc.

Hi! I hope I can help you.
 
I work at SSA not every employee knows how to process K1 applicants (sad true) 🤦🏻‍♂️, that said... The 10 days is to give the “SAVE” system time to update. SAVE is a program that comunicates with other federal agencys. SSA uses the SNAP program to create Social Security Number and this two systems communicate to create your social. SSA is in charge on selecting the number this process is called enumeration USCIS on the other hand is the one that grants work authorization. (Getting techincal I I know) 
 
Bottom line SSA has two front types employees they are called “CS” and “CSR”. The Claim Specialist(CS) don’t know much about enumeration they primary role is to take claims for Disability or Retirement benefits. Custumer Service Representative (CSR) are more adept on doing that because they got proper training with Enumeration.
 
(At least thats what is in the paper😂) 
 
You don’t need a Social to get married
 
You need a Social to get a Bank Acct
You need a Social to get Medical Insurance
 
I have seen people that wait the whole AOS process to get a SSN
I have seen people that wait to get a EAD Card from USCIS 
I have seen people that came straight from the air port to the office. 😂
 
Bottom line is: 
 
If you are a K1 Visa Holder you are entitled to a SSN with your maiden name. Because SSA have to issue the card from the visa that matches with the SAVE system. People try everytime to get the married name from the start and is a pain.
 
My advice is to wait to get the EAD card that comes with your marry name also don’t forget to bring your marriage lic and SSA can change your last name easy.
 
After you get your Residence comeback to SSA to update your SSN number and remove the work authorize only statement that will be on your first card. 
 
If you become a US citizen come again to the SSA office to update that as well with your naturalization certificate or US passport this helps a lot because when you request any service on any state or federal agency they know that you are a citizen. 
 
SSA is the center of data base of the Federal Goverment to keep taps on people. ( I think i have wrote a lot)✌🏻
 
I hope this helps clear your question and sorry for any misspelled words. 
 
Good Day🤗
