@ callmeshelle or anyone who could share with me how to join the Milligan v.s. Pompeo litigation, I have just checked the visalaw.com (https://www.visalaw.com/k-1-litigation-new-plaintiffs-onboarding/), I couldn't find anything there, maybe that's the wrong place to look for. Thank you for your help in advance.  

@ hedgemaze,  thank you for sharing. 

On their website, they say "K visa applicants who are not plaintiffs in Milligan v. Pompeo and who are physically present in a country covered by any of the COVID-related geographic proclamations (the People’s Republic of China, Islamic Republic of Iran, Schengen Area, United Kingdom, Republic of Ireland, Brazil, or South Africa) will not have their K visa application processed unless the applicant is eligible for a National Interest Exception. " that's the reason I have posted my questions in my post above. Thank you for your thoughts, suggestions, sharings or anything. 

Hi,

Here is the latest K1 Visa Processing Update I have read on the DoS website,

https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/News/visas-news/k-visa-processing-update.html

Could anyone help let me know what it means by "the applicant is eligible for a National Interests Exception."? What is the National Interests Exception? What will fall into the scope of National Interests Exception? Or how the applicant could be qualified as a National Interests Exception? 

What could we do or is there any suggestion for the k1 applicants who are currently not in the plaintiffs in Milligan v. Pompeo and who are physically present in a country covered by COVID-related geographic proclamations? Join the plaintiffs? (understand the 3rd round deadline to join was Feb. 15th, 2021, don't know what will be the best premises to join, we have got our NOA2 last month and waiting for the welcome letter case # and such from NVC right now?) Or just wait (We haven't seen each other for more than 13 months now)  ... or anything else we could do about it or expediate our case?  Don't understand why mainland China is still banned ... we only have around 10 confirmed cases every day in the mainland China and majority of these 10 cases are imported ones ... I haven't seen any local report on variants either. Appreciate any suggestions or sharings from your end. Thank you. 

Hi, 

While I checked the "K1 Fiance Visa Historical Processing Times" under VJ - Immigration Timeline - K1 Finance Visa Timelines [Trends] , currently, under step 3 after NOA2 approved until NVC received, it says I-129F's with a NOA2 Date of roughly 34 days ago (Jan. 14th, 2021) are being processed as shot-screen below. Could anyone help tell me where this Jan. 14th, 2021 coming from? Was some of the members who got the NOA2 approval on Jan.14th, 2021 had received the NVC welcome letter, case # and so on already? Or? Am new to VJ, maybe someone had already explained this before, thank you for explaining to me or again.
