Susi&Vinnie

Ja stimmt, K1 nur DS-160, genau wie im P3 beschrieben.

Yes I understand ... I will in any case go and apply for a SSN before I get married. Plus ,I will wait to do so for approx. 2 weeks after PoE so that their systems are updated and contain my I-94 information. Its understood.
 
But from what you and a lot of other posts are saying it doesn't make sense to go back to SSN office trying to change the name after the marriage as long as you didn't get your AOS/EAD response. "you won't be able to change it into your married name until you get EAD or GC".
 
So I was only wondering if we might want to adapt or add tis as a comment to the flowchart:

 

Hat sich erledigt, hab grad bei der Hotline angerufen und es mir erklären lassen. Also unter "Reschedule appointment" kann man in jedem Fall erstmal nachschauen und dann einfach die Aktion abbrechen falls kein besserer Termin aufgeführt ist
Dann werd ich da wohl jetzt mal regelmässig checken 🙏

Hi
 
wenn du mal bei den aktuellen Processing Times schaust:
NOA2 -> NVC ca. 19 Tage
NVC approval ca. 20 Tage
NVC -> Frankfurt Consulate ca. 4 Tage
Frankfurt Consulate Bearbeitung ca. 10 Tage
 
Demnach bist du mit einem Monat bisher noch komplett im Zeitplan.
Ich drück dir die Daumen das es jetzt schnell geht!

I promise I will keep you guys and the forum in the loop about how I response to the REF and what the outcome is
 
So far:
I went through all my divorce paperwork again and and found the following... Right after the divorce I received a letter from my attorney which had the first version of divorce decree and a protocol from the actual divorce hearing attached. This first version of the divorce decree looks very much the same as the final one but it has an additional section where it talks about instructions of the right to appeal. But at the same time it already has the stamp which clearly says in words the divorce is already effective .... because in the protocol its written that both parties agreed during the hearing to NOT appeal.
 
However, 1.5 month later I did get a mail from the court directly which was a cover letter and the "final divorce decree" which does not show the appeal section anymore and has now also 2 stamps on it ... one for "divorce is effective" with a date and one for "pension rights adjustment is effective" with a date as well.
-> This was the divorce decree I did provide to USCIS with the I-129F    
BUT I did not attach the cover letter from the court which I thought is not needed. This cover letter als says I one sentence (again whats already shown with the stamps) that the divorce is final and effective.
 
So what I plan do in our reply to the REF:
- I will attach the first version of the divorce decree with the protocol and I will call the the Nisi
- Then I will attach the final version again (which they already have) but this time including the cover letter from the court
- And I will try to get any written confirmation from the court or my attorney about this papers
 
And then lets pray thats enough...
 
Thank you guys so much for your responses! It does help to talk about is and get opinions
