Ok. Thanks a lot. 

So I should email the Indian embassy ?

Hello ,

             My fiance had got k1 visas in January in India but then he couldn't travel to US because of family emergency and his visa expired. What is the next steps? Is it possible for any extension of visas or we have to start the process all over again ? 

If we restart the process then do I have to email Mumbai embassy to cancel the petition or call USCIS. 

Thanks

They didn’t request for new appts. They asked for new new pcc and medical to be given with passport.

interview was done last year Dec.

Oh so they have started processing the 221g . So I m guessing in December or so they would start giving out cancelled appointments. I hope so .

They have already started processing cr1/cr2 and also k1

They are first processing cr1/cr2 and also 221g on k1/ cr1/2 cause there is a backlog since Jan onwards . I am a k 1 petitioner and they requested second pcc and medical again with passport . once they have cleared the 221g and printing then they can make space for new interviews, visa processing and new 221g . Hold on tight!

don’t give up ... it’s just a meter of time 

My last update was March 30,2020 before it closed 

now it’s oct 23 update

 

Thank you 

That's great that they started processing 221g visas. I hope they start processing cancelled interviews as well. Good luck 

Thank you for the update and the information. 

Thank you for the update. Hopefully next month we may hear something .

What "DOS high priority category"?  I keep seeing this, but can you post a link?

On Department of states website they have posted that K1 is high priority visa category. 

Hello Guys ,

                      Wanted to know if any update on Mumbai consulate India on K1 visas. If anyone received any communication regarding the cancelled interview after the DOS high priority category. Thank you

This is an email from our lawyer about getting our K1 visa rescheduled. Go out, make noise, send messages, call. Do what you got to in order to get an appointment. Mumbai is giving preference to IR1/CR1 so don't let it slide if you are a K1 waiting!

 

Thank you for the update. If there is good news please do share. I tried calling Mumbai embassy but no answer .

We all need to understand that K1 is a hybrid visa. it is non immigrant but with migration intent...By the standards of migration K1's are recognized as spouse of US citizens. As to being a hybrid visa it can be confusing most time to which category it belongs to. For those of us that watched the US embassy in Jamaica facebook live chat yesterday, the question of K1 was raised again and the lady answered that K1's will be processed!

From my understanding the lady said that K1s do not fall under regular routine visa services so are not processed .

If you want the visa then I'd recommend following the embassy instructions or cause delays to your visa issuance while you get them from the courthouse. 

Ok. Thank you for the advice. I will have to reschedule the interview date and get it from the court.

Here are the requirements for your embassy. It should give you clear understanding what is needed. This comes directly from the embassy's P3 letter.

 

BIRTH CERTIFICATE: Bring your original birth certificate, as well as a clear photocopy. If it is in any language other than English, bring a notarized English translation. If you do not have a birth certificate or your birth certificate is missing your name, your date of birth, or the names of your parents, submit the following secondary evidence:

 

 A notarized affidavit executed by a parent, if living, or another close relative older than you. This affidavit should clearly state the relationship between the relative and you, how well the relative knows you, the date and place of your birth, the names of both your parents, and any other related facts; OR
 School-leaving certificate, matriculation certificate or Certificate of Recognized Boards from the school you last attended; OR
 Your baptismal certificate from a church.

MARRIAGE CERTIFICATE: If you have ever been married, bring your original marriage certificate, as well as a clear photocopy. If it is in any language other than English, bring a notarized English translation.

DIVORCE CERTIFICATE OR DEATH CERTIFICATE OF A SPOUSE: If you have ever had a marriage end through divorce or the death of your spouse, bring the original death certificate or divorce decree, as well as one photocopy. If it is any language other than English, bring a notarized English translation.

Divorce between Hindus and Christians must be documented by a court order (divorce decree), not a deed of divorce. Divorce between Muslims must be documented by a certificate from the Kazi or head of the Jamaat.

Thank you for your reply. My fiance doesn't have original marriage certificate . But has original divorce decree . So now does he have to get duplicate from Court ?

I believe the request for marriage certificate is referring to any current marriages.. unless of course Mumbai has its own special rules. 

Yeah even I am confused..

Hello, 

            I had a question about what original documents to be submitted during the consulate interview . My fiance is from Mumbai , India and is a divorce. When we submitted i129f we submitted copies of divorce decree but when I am checking online for k4 packet for Mumbai consulate it mentions marriage certificate and divorce decree. My fiance doesn't have original marriage certificate but has a scanned copy. He has  original divorce decree only. Is it necessary to submit origin marriage certificate during final interview. Your help is greatly appreciated. 

Thank you

Congratulations. NVC should have your case this week but we are seeing 1-3 weeks for case numbers to be assigned. Contact information is in the PDF on the first page, first post. You can begin calling anytime you would like to but don't be surprise if it's not issued for another week or so.

 

We need a little housekeeping on your end. 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.

Thank you very much . I called NVC and they gave me case number yesterday on 13th January. My fiance got his police clearance certificate from India and UK.
