Title: Does K1 need a 4 to 6 week security check Post by: elcolombiano on July 31, 2003, 04:00:00 AM I have applied for a K1 Visa(pettition). When the petition is apporved in the states do I have to wait another 4-6 weeks for a security check?
Administrative processing usually refers to a legally mandated security check the Department of State must do for all applicants/beneficiaries over the age of 16. It is a normal process that is done automatically and, if it was performed more than a year ago, may need to be updated. The process normally takes four to six weeks. Please be patient. The Immigrant Visa Unit will contact the applicant as soon as the results are received |
