Two mistakes already.

 

Not sending the I-944 and choosing the wrong category, the right one is C9/C09.

 

Redo your forms and pay attention to the instructions.

 

You don't need to separate the biometric fee.

Thank you so much, I appreciate your contribution.

C09 is the correct category - using A6 is wrong and does increase the fee.

Thanks so much,  your contribution has saved me from headache.

Hello everyone,
We submitted my AOS as a K1 Visa holder with a money order of $1225 meanwhile, the letter of rejection notice I received states that ”the amount is incorrect” (has the filing fee changed or what ?) I also want to ask if it's a must I submit form I-944 after Submitting form I-864, it's kinda complicated. as anyone ever received such a letter? 
Please I need your advice.
Thanks in anticipation.

 

Another thing again is that: am I supposed to separate AOS fee from Biometric fee? because I actually did combined the two on two money order slips since a slip cant be more than $1,000 meanwhile, the section for meme on the money order slip (purpose of payment)

"Form I-485 " was written on both", I don't know if that was right.

The amount is correct. They rejected because you did something wrong and we're trying to figure out what it is. Most of the times the letter is generic and tells you a lot of things that might have happened.

 

Did you send form I-944 with the package?

Did you use category C9/C09 for EAD?

Did your select (c) on part 2, question 2 of the form 485?

 

I actually didn't send Form I-944 but I figured out base on the letter sent  to me.

You must be referring to Question 7 for Eligibility Category, I chose "A6" I hope I was right.

For the I-485 Part 2 question 2, Yes, i chose "C"

Thanks.

I actually used money order to pay a total of $1,225 for my filing fee yet, they said the payment was incorrect,

I actually don't know maybe my mistake was that I combined the two fees and also on the money order memo part (to indicate what the money was meant for) I wrote "for form I-845.

My question is... what am I not doing right here? Thanks all.

When the Embassy is ready to issue a visa, it will change to "Non-immigrant Visa Application"; at that time, you will know that you are a few days away from getting the visa. It will go from "Immigrant Visa Application" Administrative Processing to "Non-immigrant Visa Application" Administrative processing status and then your visa changes to "Ready" ==> "Administrative Processing" ==>> "Issued" status as well. These steps sometimes transpire over a day or even a few days. Some smaller Embassy's it happens within hours.

 

Sometimes, it might skip "Administrative Processing" and go from "Ready" to "Issued".

Thanks a bunch,I so appreciate

Possibly, or it may change to something else and then "issued". "Issued" is the only status that matters. It can bounces back and forth between statuses, don't pay attention to them. 

Thanks

Thank you all  for your contribution to my recent posts, I posted 2 days back on how my CEAC case had been stuck on "application  received" after 11 business days ( 21 days in total).

Now my status has changed to "Administrative Processing" just few hours back. Is it going to change to issued from the current status?

1 minute ago, Ninaydavids said:

Amen. I hope so too. You said you sent a message to the embassy. What was their reply?

Yes I did, but I got an auto reply which states that "response could take up to 5-7 days" but few hours back, my status has been changed to "Administrative Processing"

While there are no guarantees, generally when a K-1 CEAC status switches to nonimmigrant, we see the visa issued shortly after.  Best of luck, and let us know what happens.

Thank you. I appreciate

I had my immigrant visa interview on the 19th of December, 2019. Status changed the following day to Application received till date. Today makes it the 10th business day. Seems we are in the same boat.

Oh I see, just a day different between our appointment, I emailed them already though. Please let me know once you receive any update.

I had my K1 interview on 18th December 2019 and my visa was approved by the consular.

Meanwhile, my case status has been stuck on "Application recieved" even though I was told by the consular that my passport was going to be ready within two weeks,

although, my case was updated on 18th and 19th, that is on my interview day and the following day and has also been changed from Immigrant to Nonimmigrant.

Is there anyone who has experienced such?

Thanks Paul &  Mary

Its best to send them Email

Hello everyone, I recently booked my interview appointment at the US embassy in Lagos Nigeria on 16th October hoping to get an earlier date before my approved I-129f becomes invalid which is going to be December 5th, unfortunately, the earliest date I got happened to be December 18th which means my approved case would have become invalid by then.

i wrote the embassy requesting for an expedite date or a validity extension and here is their reply...

“We advise you should attend your interview appointment as scheduled. During your interview, you should present documents/evidence to the Consular officer to show that you qualify and justify why the petition should be extended. In order to qualify for a K-1 visa, the beneficiary/applicant must convince the Consular officer that he or she has a bona fide spousal relationship with the petitioner. The decision to extend the validity of the petition will be at the discretion of the interviewing officer. However, if you are unprepared for this interview it is not likely the petition will be extended.”

Though, all my documents are ready as am fully ready to be interviewed.

please advice especially those who encountered the same issue
