You can always file taxes MFS and then amend the tax return whenever she gets the number.

Wow! That was finally quick!! Congratulations!! 🎊🎉🎉

Yay! This is exciting. Our visa arrived 5 business days after it changed to issued. 

Status moved pretty fast today, from AP to received to issued in matter of hours. Now just waiting for them to mail it. @Greenbaumonce again thank you for all your help and advice throughout this process. Two main things to remember mileage may vary and lots and lots of patience. Happiest day of this process so far.

Well we seem to have good news, case updated on Thursday the 17th, then again on the 18th and last yesterday 21st. My Fiance called today and they told her they sent out the DHL letter to send in her passport. So she did today, it will get to Juarez tomorrow and we will see what happens. The good thing is they only asked for her passport so that's a good sign that it will be issued very soon. Fingers crossed.

So Fiance called Juarez consulate and they told her that they sent out the instructions via DHL to send in her passport. So She did today and hope we get it stamped and sent back soon. Its all moving along now. Hopefully initial AP is done. #progress

Issued

it has been a while since i posted here (gathering documents, making plans)....So I am happy to say,  that as of october 16th my fiancee's k1 visa was approved (us embassy bogota) . We are extremely happy and I just wanted to share our result.  Once that packet is sent out, things go so quickly (almost too quickly). 
 
It is super helpful to have all of your papers ORGANIZED and easily searchable because they asked for certain papers on the spot and the whole process at this particular embassy was very streamlined. 
 
As for the actual interview, I did attend with her and they even asked me some questions (to my surprise). but everything went very good. Best of luck to those who are still left in this thread that need to have their interview. 

@Greenbaum good to see you back and even better cancer free. God bless you and your family. I speak for all that you are a great help and hope for many here on this forum. Thank you so much.

Next steps:
Follow along in CEAC for updates with these steps.
 
the first AP is the immigration unit doing the paperwork for approving the visa
the first ready is a notice that they are finished and the paperwork is being sent for visa issuance
the second AP is the visa issuance people doing their own paperwork
the second ready is that the visa has been issued and is currently being processed for delivery
 
Then "issue" is posted and the visa has left the BIG house to YOUR house.
 
Once you get that second ready, it should be sent out within a few days, although we received our visa before any of the various websites that allow you to look up the status said that it had been sent out.

I had my interview today and my visa is approved!!
 
 

Good luck

Have my interview tomorrow afternoon....wish me luck guys ☺️ 

Hi all!  We had our interview on 9/8 and were put in AP for almost a month. Our status just recently changed to "nonimmigrant" so we are getting closer ❤️ Just wanted to update all those who were on the same timeline as us. 

Quick update,  been in AP since Sept 20th and have called a few times with no new info. So the wait continues. Anyone else from Juarez consulate waiting for AP to clear up?

thank you and I hope very soon that you give us good news about you
