~ Topic moved from K1 Process to Waivers forum ~
What you described is a standard procedure for every petition etc you submit with USCIS… When you field I-129F it was the same thing.
From what I read here recently I-601 waivers are taking around a year to process.
Aha. I couldn't remember what the I-129F notice said, but that makes sense really.
We were also expecting around a year processing.. Such a painful wait on top of the year we waited for the I-129F. Thanks for the reply 🙂 -
We recently filed the I-601 waiver, and I got something in the mail this week regarding the care. It was just the receipt number, but the money is taken out of our account for the fee, and in the letter it said the following; "We have received your and are currently processing the above case".
Does this mean they are actually looking at our case right away? Have anyone in here filed the I-601 waiver?

It really depends upon what that small thing is…everything is all spelled out in the REASONS for DENIALS of the IMMIGRATION LAWS…
Well, I had a fine for buying ONE user dose of marijuana, 15 years ago. That was enough. That is a small thing I would say.

Hello,
Let's start from the beginning.
My fiancé (who is the USC) and I (I am from Norway) filed our K1 visa December 3rd 2020. August 2021 we were approved. December 9th I had to go to the US embassy in Stockholm, Sweden for my interview.
Everything was looking, and I had all my papers in order. My criminal record was not clean. I had a fine from January 2007 for admitting to have bought and smoked one user dose of marijuana during a vacation in Spain, December 2006. This was during an interview with the military here in Norway, where they asked me if I had every tried any drugs. I was honest and told them I tried marijuana once. I was 19 and didn't think much of it. They sent my interrogation papers to the police, and I got a fine. It should be said that during my stay in Spain, cannabis is decriminalized and I should not have agreed to that fine in the first place. Again, I did not know this at the time. Also I didn't think it would matter at any point since it was only a fine.
When I handed in the papers to the first person at the embassy, he asked me about the fine, I told him what it was, and he couldn't imagine this was going to be a problem. At the interview, the woman who interviewed me asked me about it as well, she kinda laughed at it, carried on and told me everything looked good. They were going to finalize the papers and ship everything back to me.
I left a happy man!
Hours later they requested my court orders for my fine, which I honestly didn't think exist. I contacted the police station the next day, got the documents I needed, got it translated and emailed it back two days after my interview. My interview took place on a Thursday. Following Tuesday I got an email saying my visa was refused.
Now we have to file a I-601 and wait even longer...
So for those of you who wonder if a small thing on your record matters, it does... -

Yes! i saw that too! Hopefully they speed up
I'm not gonna be a partypooper, but I wouldn't really hope a whole lot when it comes to this 😛
It's just going to be this long, hard wait for all of us unfortunately.
Even though I wish everyone the best. Hehe. Don't get me wrong. -
Anyone here seen this yet?

Anyone here know approximately how long time it will take for the NOA1 to come from the money has been taken out? 🤔

Nov 22nd for me and still waiting. Been 10 1/2 months since I've seen my fiancé. He's in Vietnam and their border is shut tight. Hope this goes smoothly for all of us and that we all are reunited with our love ones sooner than later.
Yeah, we haven't seen each other since Christmas 2019. I was planning on going to Florida again around April last year, but that did NOT happen...
We just have to hang in there I guess. -
Hello everyone 🙂
Just wanted to introduce myself. We are in the K-1 Visa process too. We shipped ours end of November, and was delivered on Dec 7th. Checked the K-1 December filers, but not really a whole lot of activity over there.
We put on our waiting hat, and have to be patient. And, while we're waiting, we started a podcast to keep ourselves busy 😅
Does anyone here have a plan how you will get to USA once the visa is approved? Or has anyone visited their loved ones with the travel ban to the US? I'm located in Norway and can't seem to find a good solution to see my fiancé in near future...
I-601 experience?
in Waivers (I-601 and I-212) and Administrative Processes (221g)

Somebody already answered it, so I got that. But thanks for telling me a second time
