Well I'm not surprised that this happend, but on May 6th the U.S. State Department issued a recall of all approved K1 visa whose NOA date was on or after March 6, 2006. This will delay all approvals and likely throw the entire process in a slight case of choas for awhile. For those approved I would suspect that it will add 1-2 months of delay before the interviews can be scheduled. For those that applied but have not been approved, I think another 2-3 months on top of their old wait times will likely be the case.
Here is a link to the DOS notice regarding the recall of the K1 fiancee visa's: http://travel.state.gov/visa/laws/telegrams/telegrams_2927
Now the good news; the USCIS has finally started to move. They have a draft of the new I-129F form that all new pets. will have to use when filing for their K1 fiancee visa. Here's a link: http://www.uscis.gov/graphics/formsfee/forms/pra/i-129f-draft.pdf NOTE THIS IS A DRAFT do not rely on this form. I would suspect that this will be approved within the next 30 days and things will slowly get back on track.
One can note all the extra questions on criminal background. If you find any of these apply to you, then it is probably a good idea to start getting those records ready.
