K1 Visa Circumstances - Really stuck on what to do

Hi guys.

You are all so helpful I really appreciate this community.

I need clarification and advice because honestly we're in a predicament.

Here's the outline:

Applied for K1 Visa Nov 2019. Approved March 2020 - forwarded to US embassy. Corona virus happened. I've heard nothing from the embassy at all, as is the case with many others. Application date on notice of action has now passed. I contacted the embassy asking them to extend it or make sure everything is okay and I got back canned answers from the website.

Looks like the travel ban effects people in UK.

K1 Visa is a non immigrant visa which is exempt from immigration ban... Except on the US Embassy London Website the K1 Visa is categorised as an Immigrant visa. See links below:

Other circumstances:

  • Fiance is currently with me in UK, has been here on Tier 4 student visa. Just finished her bachelors degree, her date she has to leave is October. Can she extend in some way if we can't get to the USA?

  • I can work from anywhere as business is online.

  • We are speaking to others who think it might be a year before all the bans are lifted, might be worth getting married, she stays here another year and we throw away the K1 and apply for a K3 spouse visa.

We're in such a predicament. I know no one really knows when the embassy will open, but can anyone offer any insight or guidance as to what options we have. Also, clarification as to whether the K1 is immigrant or non immigrant.

Thank you guys, I appreciate it a lot. This is so hard.

N-400 form {"data":null,"error":{"developerMessage":null,"userMessage":null}} message

A few questions: I filed my N400 naturalization on March 23, 2020. Nearly one year later on Feb 2021 they sent me a notice that they'll reuse my biometrics from my green card application, but they won't refund the biometric fee! At the same time April 2021 showed up on my account as the expected completion date. Last week, the status was "17 days". Today the estimated time of completion has disappeared!!! Any idea what that means? More importantly - When I click on "View PDF" link under "N-400 Application for Naturalization", to see my actual N-400 form, I get " {"data":null,"error":{"developerMessage":null,"userMessage":null}} " message! The form is also missing under "Documents -> Your Uploads" tab! So, it appears that my N400 form is missing! What does that all mean, considering that it's impossible to file without N400 form! Finally, under profile, My name is incorrectly sp...

NVC Case FE Review note

Hi everyone, my family and I are under the F3 category and we just received a notice from NVC that our documents have been approved and that we are Documentarily Qualified. My only concern is this message that we received today in addition to the acceptance: ​ " [Name of petitioner] does not meet the minimum income requirement to sponsor the intending immigrants for this case. The consular officer will make a decision regarding this requirement at the time of the interview. For more information, please visit https://www.uscis.gov/i-864p . To avoid delays, an additional Affidavit of Support Form I-864 for a joint sponsor may be submitted." ​ We already have a petitioner and a household sponsor (the household sponsor's income is above the required level), but still unsure why we received this. Has anyone else received this message? All of our documents say "Approved" on NVC. Does this mean we have to find another sponsor? Can we show the consular officer our ...
