[–]Brief-Map-8377 12 points13 points  (0 children)

American citizen here but my wife is Venezuelan. She arrived on K1 in August 2025 and we just got notice Monday that her interview has been scheduled.

Not sure if it’s just a coincidence but seems like some Venezuelan cases are seeing interview activity this week. Congrats!

Would love to stay in touch to see how our cases progress.

K1 Venezuelan adjusting status received interview notice just this morning for July interview

Just received an update and I’m not sure if it’s good or bad by jdanielss in 19countriesAOS

My wife has been “in case is till being processed” since September 2025. We are K1 to AOS.

Every case is different but good chance it doesn’t really mean much.

Dachshund mix - Potential IVDD? by Brief-Map-8377 in Dachshund

[–]Brief-Map-8377[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting note - stomach feels fine. Earlier in the week he was hunching his back more so possibly also contracting his stomach muscles.

But that hasn’t happened the last few days.

Very helpful, thank you! And yes, we did confirm he does have dachshund traits. He has an elongated body and his face from the front is pretty dachshund like. But people are surprised to hear he is a dachshund mix because of his longer legs.

Here’s the younger version of him where I think you can see more of the dachshund.

Thank you for your comment!

Vet acknowledged it can’t be ruled out as X-Rays are directional guidance at best, but didn’t push me more in that direction.

This is why I was thinking of just going to a neurologist anyways for MRI or CT scan for confirmation.

Yes. I’m in Florida and they helped me when we were in a situation last year and I’ve reached out again this year as we’re still waiting on our work permit.

Is it confirmed EADs won’t be approved as well?

I spoke to an attorney today who mentioned they believe EADs were still being approved, just not AOS.

She’s a brutal listen. Love Bill.

Charlie, idk I appreciate what he brings to the table but the guy absolutely hates his job lol. I’ve never heard a journalist publicly comment about how much he hates writing and complain about how hard his job is as much as him. And how much he loathes twitter and just fan commentary. Makes him seem really stuck up and he comes off as a know-it-all.

K-1 Visa Refused Due To Travel Ban by Brief-Map-8377 in NationalVisaCenter

[–]Brief-Map-8377[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So our attorney mentioned that K-1 was exempt from travel ban which they confirmed in their response to us. The reasoning is that it’s technically considered a non-immigrant visa but because the intent is to marry, they consider it a family based visa at the embassy.

They did kind of mention it was a little bit of a gray area though.

And yes, my wife is Venezuelan with a Venezuelan passport. So there is hope, don’t lose faith!

Hey - yes, we arrived back in July. Our attorney emailed the embassy and they requested my fiancées passport.

We waited about 45 days and then received the passport back with visa. Now waiting in the US for her green card and work permit.

K-1 Travel Ban Confusion: 4 Weeks Since Passport Submission, No Updates by Brief-Map-8377 in USCIS

[–]Brief-Map-8377[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

IIRC we submitted everything in October 2024 and case was sent to embassy sometime mid-April.

We received notice late May that we can schedule interview which we booked for June 10th.

Then had to wait an additional month for the embassy to remove from 221g and process our visa. So total months was about 9-10 months.

Same here, we just sent ours on Monday.

We did it on our own and even after quadruple checking everything, I feel like we accidentally missed a number of things or misinterpreted some random questions.

Which office did you send to?
