hey sorry - let me clarify - I am the beneficiary (soon to be wife and my fiance works in the US. we met in college and I moved to Shanghai for work (we considered the I-130 route before but since my fiance has to be in the US for work we decided to go with K1) he actually called the USCIS yesterday and the lady told him he can write them a letter to switch the consulate back to Hong Kong (where I am from). Since they havent even look at our case yet. I wonder if that would be a smart move? if so, will i also need to change my mailing address to Hong Kong instead of Shanghai? Just concern about if these would tag on more processing time. Thank you everyone!

Hi everyone, newbie here! My fiance and I just got engaged and filed for the K1 visa - so exciting! I am a citizen of Hong Kong working in Shanghai, so we just put Shanghai as the embassy of choice. But now I am reading that Guangzhou is the only embassy that issues K1 visa? I am panicking now (esp when i read about to the possible delay in receiving the packages because of Chinese custom here) and wonder if we have chosen the wrong place to apply for the visa. I travel to Hong Kong for work often and have addresses in both cities - is it possible/do you guys advise us to call and try to switch it to Hong Kong? Thank you so much - this is an incredibly stressful process, I am grateful forums like this to get us all moving and staying positive!
