For all of you in AP, like my husband and I, I know how frustrating it can be. We are over a year into waiting, and we've had very little luck communicating with the Casa consulate. We've tried everything, from sending emails upon emails, to going to the consulate in person, to even having our state's senators contact them directly. It all results in the same outcome: You have to wait.

 

And while that is of very little consolation, my husband was talking with a family member who knows quite a bit about the immigration process  (he works with them, I'm guessing), he told us something that made us feel more at ease. He said, even if the consulate doesn't respond to any of your inquiries,  and your case may be taking longer than anticipated, it doesn't mean that something is wrong. He told us that the consulate is SWAMPED with applications, and once it reaches AP, there are even fewer people that are given the task of researching  (due to security) your case and history. And at this point, depending on your particular case (and how busy they are), the time varies greatly. At this point, really, all that you can do is wait.

 

We also asked him why the consulate doesn't respond, even after many intervention methods, and he explained it like this: Think of how many emails come through in a day alone. And then think of all of the other tasks that the employees are expected to complete, besides reading and responding to emails. While, yes, it can be exasperating, for them, it is more of a matter of priority. They are trying their best to push your applications along, and responding to each email only makes the process longer.

 

P.S. He also told us: once your case reaches AP, it is even out of the Consulate's hands. Regardless of if you have a senator or lawyer or even the president push it along, there is nothing that they CAN do. Nothing that anyone can do will speed it up. It's really up to where your case is in the pile & your particular situation & factors. Remember: Morocco is a high fraud country, and no one wants to be responsible for bringing an immigrant into America that doesn't have true intentions.

 

So my advice? Don't stress yourself by sending emails and making thousands of phone calls (all of which most likely won't be answered). Just trust that everything is going well and sit back and live your life. That's what my husband and I have finally done, and we feel like a weight has been lifted off of our shoulders. I'm not saying that our life has become easier, but we have chosen to not let this process dictate our life.

And like they say, the phone won't ring if you're just sitting by it, waiting for someone to call...

 

I hope that this helps for anyone else who is in the waiting game. Just believe in your relationship and the process. Good luck!

 

Thank you for the information....but I think the embassy should have a time frame for final response either they are giving the visa or not.... Not to keep people happiness on hostage.  No matter how tight and heavy the work load a time she should created for final answer.  They don't work more than the uscis but yet when us is gives you RFE you kn8at most 3 months you will get responses.  I will say embassies are just being wicked and feel they are in charge

D embassy is not going to send anything to you.just get ur documents together and go for your interview.

is not true,  the embassy will send you package 4 through your email before you can schedule interview date.  Go google it,  you must be schedule for interview until you hear from the embassy.  Ours took 6 weeks to hear from embassy after nvc sent us a case number. Good luck

Just wondering how many of us used a lawyer to file and if that usually makes any difference in the outcome of the visa being issued or not? 

We used a lawyer, had our interview last day of August and was told to submit a few more documents(tax return), so AP. We submitted them all the next day and now we’re waiting. 

Mine has been submitted since July 24th and still no news from  them.  Please let us know when you receive any response from them.   Thank you

 To be eligible, the K2 visa applicant must under 21 years old and not legally married, however, they may be either biologically-related or adopted. If there is another parent still living in the home country, all custody laws of the country must be consented to in regard to the child’s move to the United States, and a written consent form by the other parent may be required. Most concerning is the necessary "consent" from the other "parent". I would highly recommend you research to know what your rights are as their maybe some documents and signatures you must gather for your daughter's exit. Just saying.

Thank you. i have submitted the requested documents. but will do more research for when i will be ready for her coming.

I am sorry to hear they didn't keep your passport.  My husband went through Senegal embassy & not in Nigeria.  Senegal & Nigerian embassies are difficult.  Go to the Nigerian forum to see if you can get some good information from those who have gone through this experience.  Please keep me updated on how things are going for you.  Can you tell me the things that were requested from you?

Thank you for your concern. i was asked to submit pictures of her and me when growing up and also primary and secondary school registration form. i have submitted all that already. hoping and waiting for the response....just my concern is that i don't know if they have received because i have not heard from them since i submitted it.

I am surprised you were asked to submit documents for your daughter so soon.  I think you will be asked again when you are ready for her.  It's a confusing & frustrating journey.  It will be worth it at the end, so hang in there & pray a lot.  Although we are finished with the K1 part, we are now waiting for his working permit.  It's difficult for an African man who is used to working hard to be sitting at home😥.  I really feel your frustration.  Please take one day at a time & provide them with whatever is asked.  Blessings & best wishes to you.

Hi.  Things seems to be getting more challenging for Nigerians.  If you responded with all they requested, at some point, you will be updated.  My now husband is Nigerian, so I feel your pain.  It will be okay.  Keep yourself busy & hopefully soon you will get good news.

Amen and Thank you so much for your encouragement.  I have a 17 years old daughter who is not going with me now but later after she finish school by next year God's grace.  Most of the additional documents requested for was because of her which I thought will be presented when applying for her going.  I know I did mention she will join me later when filing ds 160 form.  Though I have submitted what they requested.

No you will be in AP until approved or denied. 

 

I know it sucks but you will have to try and be a bit more patient.

Many of our answers are predicated on the information you supply in your profile. When we look at the left column and can't determine your timeline OR your Embassy it's hard for us to give you a factual answer. Our answers will sometimes be tailored to a specific Embassy hence the reason for you to complete your profile. If you look at the profile of others here, they have a flag for their country, so it makes it easy for us to reply as we can quickly determine their Embassy. The country that should be used is the country where the interview will take place.

 

So, if you could help yourself out and complete your profile that sure would help us out when we want to reply to your question with factual information.

 

Go to the top right of this page select your name (it's on the upper right-hand corner)>my profile>[below your picture on the right column] edit my profile. Scroll to the bottom and fill in "Immigration Info". There now we can better serve you.

 

Once you finish that then return and you will see a flag in your profile. Select it and see what wonderful information will open up for you.

 

Thanks

Thank you i will try to complete my profile. i have i might not get accurate information that i need due to the different country and embassy but i believe with different contribution here i will be able to put two together. thank you all for your help.

Passport is still with me.....that is another worry

Thank you I will try to be patient . The  wait is really killing me

this is nigeria according to profile

 

 

I am in Nigeria. Thank you for your response but my question is that does that mean they have not received my documents since AP even before I submit and not change to acknowledge document receipt 

I had my k1 visa interview on the 5th of July and I was given a white paper to submit additional documents which I submitted on the 24th of July and since then I have not heard anything from the embassy not even receipt notice.  Case status keep updating date but on AP.  What do I do please
