@powerpuffthank you ☺️

Case approved today🥳🥳

Got my clearance in 6 days mailed back the same on Monday. Today FO confirmed receiving it so hopefully not much longer!

@Gauchoswas not an option sadly. I would prefer to do in person as time matters but hey it is what it is. Hopefully I’ll get it in May. Thanks again for the input.

@Gauchos that’s reassuring. Congrats on fast approval. It seems like the one for CT can be only done by mail. Cheque still hasn’t cleared they supposed to mail the certificate to me. Not sure how accurate the 5-10 days is. Wait is very frustrating.

So apparently this happens when they find your fingerprints as unclassified. I managed to find some posts people complaining about the same issue. Apparently I should have been told this during my interview. If it fails verification for some reason you get request for police check for the past 5 years. I guess it is what it is. CT clearance supposed to be 5-10 days. Immigration in US is a very frustrating and long process.

I saw the upload option, but letter says I need to mail the original copies.

Thanks. I just wish she told me that before we left. I did have biometrics request twice which was surprising. Luckily enough the UK police check is valid for 24 months so I will only have to request CT one tomorrow. Also I’m assuming I can just print the RFE letter I have on my account rather than waiting for the one to come in the mail?

It says: The police clearance records must be from each placed you lived (whether in United States or outside United States) for the past 5 years. It sounds like they want me to submit what I had with K1 and police check from CT as I’ve been here close to a year now. London embassy never copied anything. The whole thing just seem ridiculous to me. As K1 would never be approved without the police checks. I had all the documents with me today no CT records as I’ve never heard of this requirement before. Just frustrating she never said anything while we were there.

Hi, I wonder if anyone experienced this. I had my interview today all went well so I thought. Been told case will be approved but this afternoon status has changed to RFE. Asking about police background check. I had all the paperwork with me and was not asked about it. Also the K1 would have never been approved without them. Also does this mean I need to get a police check now from US as well as I’ve been living here longer than 6 months. I just cannot believe they did not ask about it during the interview.

Thanks both for clarifying. I will be definitely applying before getting married. Driving license is the main thing for me. Can I also ask how long did you wait before applying as I heard I-94 is electronic now so no need to wait the 2 weeks period is that actually true?

Hi, Is it possible to have your married name on your SSN? I saw some people saying you should apply before getting married as apparently you cannot have your married name on SSN until you get your GC. I was planning to apply after getting the marriage cert but now I am not sure. Thanks.
