Do you have a fiance petition pending and want to know how long to wait?

 

Well…you need to take control of the situation. We know you are doing the best you can and we are here to help you and share real-time updates on processing times, especially for fiance visas.

 

We recommend you get married first because that is the current trend. Embassies and consulates are approving and scheduling interviews faster for marriages than for fiance visas. But we are already here, so let’s get a handle on the situation, talk to your fiance, and tell her that you care and that you are trying. Invite her to a meeting with us; that’s part of our service. We don’t just talk to one person, we talk to the whole family to make sure everyone is informed and cared for.

 

There are several service centers handling these applications, and the wait time varies from 7 to 15 months. I know it’s not that pleasant, but you are randomly assigned to different service centers, not necessarily based on where you live. Once approved, you can proceed to the next step. If your fiance visa petition takes longer than 20 months, something is wrong, although it’s probably not your case, it’s just stuck.

 

I know 20 months is a long time. You can talk to us before then.
