The company that I am using to assist in preparing the K1 stated in their list of things I would need 4 passport photos....I can find nothing but their list saying this. Can anyone think of a reason I would need 4??? Does it vary for Colombia possibly?

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresWork Authorization
[/quote]
The chances are ZERO. And even if the make the mistake of stamping it, it is of no value to a K-1. Temporary work authorization for K-1 visas is no longer valid for work. The requirements of the I-9 form used by all employers changed in February and began enforcement in April. A K-1 can no longer work without an EAD or Green Card. An EAD applied for and approved prior to marriage and AOS will expire with the I-94 and is sigularly useless. For your $340 you will revice and EAD maybe a week or two before it expires.

Enter the US, get your SSN, get married, file for EAD and AOS (grreen card)...then go to work.

Hey man I know this is my second chime in but...with all due respect this is not your first hayride. You have answered all of your own questions, it appears you need other reassurance that backing out is the right decision. Remember this is your life and her life, bumps in the road are one thing, but based only on what you have described, go back and read all you have written, if you were laying out the case or guiding someone else what would you tell them to do?

For what it is worth...I agree with Got Charmed. I was divorced once(American Woman) as well... but if you have doubts now about failure, I don't see counseling working. This is the one opportunity to look for everything you want in a relationship, and yes there will be hard times, but that is different than having doubts up front.

I did searched and read some stories about petition cancelation. I wonder how many are result of maybe that person might not be the one after all. I'm not saying that's the case for me, not saying we don't have issues, but hopefully those can be resolved. Which one of you have this experience of canceling the petition because of this reason. Regardless of who is at fault, did you regret about canceling or regret you chose perhaps the wrong person? And will you do it all over again if you can find the one. I'm just curious because I know a friend that did exactly that. He brought a girl over to the U.S. from Vietnam. It was great at first, but after filing the petition, things went downhill. I didn't get the whole detail from him, but he said it was a big mistake. He regret ever having to do all of this. The waste of time, great deal of money, and the emotional pain he gone through. He said he will never go back to find a spouse. He's going to find one in the states. He knew about the fiancee will soon go to an interview. He just told me to be sure and careful. What he said got me curious. So which is why I am asking this here. I would like to hear your stories.


For 2008, the most recent figures available 2,457 K-1 petitions were "withdrawn" 386 of whom later regretted the decision in a poll with a 78% response rate. ALL of them had subsequently married American women and were miserable...but no distinct correlation in the misery index was related to marrying American women in this survey.

bsaboutk1visasandothermeaninglesssurveys@comcast.com

Yours friends advice to "be careful" is good. His advice to find an American woman...not so good according to this survey. Myself, I would be more likely to try being GAY.

Hi I have two questions about the phone bills we will use as evidence of our relationship.

One, is that my phone number, along with my moms, dads, and brothers are all listed on the bill as being under my fathers name. We have the family plan, so all 4 numbers are listed under the name of my dad. Should I/my dad write them a letter explaining this? Or would they just figure it out if I highlight the number thats mine and they see the calls going from that number to my fiancees country and I only hand in the call history of the number thats mine?

Two, is that my fiancee doesn't make much money at her job in Morocco to call me long distance, so all the calls are from me to her. Up to this point there is no record of her ever calling me (its been 6 months since I've been with her in person). Although now that it's summer and tourism is picking up she may be able to call me occasionally from a teleboutique. Is this going to be a problem at the interview if they see that there were barely any calls from her to me? Is there anything that I/my fiancee should do to prepare for this?

I plan on sending phone bills and emails with the original petition because I want the CO's to see stuff before they even interview her. But the only ones I have so far are just records of me calling her.


No problems. Highlight the portion of the bill that is yours. Alla almost never "called me". I had much cheaper rates to call her so she would "ring my phone" and hang up, then I called her back. No problems at all.


Alexandra did the same...all I did was highlight what pertained to my calling her..no worries

QUOTE (*Laura* @ Jun 15 2009, 09:45 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
I also agree that it's an axe that can fall both ways. In my eyes it's almost as if the relationship is there due to the added interest that the beneficiary will get a better life, with the USC paying to support them and their family. I mean, it could come across that way, it doesn't prove a relationship based on love, but one based on monetary gain.

If you think that will help your case, by all means send it, but I'd first check in the regional forums for denial reasons, or how much evidence is really necessary. In the end this is a case by case process and there's the bias of each officer.

Exactly... I probably didn't even need to send it but I did and it wasn't a problem. Does that mean it won't be a problem for you? NO......I dont think anyone here has said that was their PRIMARY evidence, nor did anyone mention that they were supporting their fiance's family, I sure didn't. Providing for the one's you love means many different things. Everyone has said that they sent all of their SKYPE, calling cards, chat logs, emails etc as well as money transfers...I visited six times, over 2 1/2 years, talked daily by phone as well as internet chat, I think I proved my "time" if that is your definition of what makes a bona fide relationship. Time is not an indicator of love either, I was married 21 years the first time and am obviously divorced. I can also remember my high school days spending hours on the phone with my gf du jour, and that sure wasn't true love. You should feel blessed that your love did not ever need your financial help or support, not all of us were fortunate enough to fall in love with someone who could always make it on their own. Many of the countries our spouses come from ONLY know unemployment rates equal to or much higher than we have now in our own country, that is the norm for their lives. If you are capable of "assisting" by providing support for your loved one when they are not with you, you are obviously capable of providing support when they are in the USA. Proving a bona fide relationship and the fact that your non USC spouse will not be a drag on our countries finances is what the criteria is based on. My point is, if you don't think you need it don't send it, but I did and have no idea whether it helped or not. Quite frankly, we should take care before criticizing others based on our own definition of buying love. In the end our opinion doesn't mean much in obtaining the goal of having our loved one with us, it is what the person on the other side of the window at the embassy thinks.

I am betting this has been discussed before, but if not , here is my question... what are thoughts about using Moneygram receipts as proof of ongoing relationship? I do not support my fiancee, she has a job and works darn hard at it. She has asked me for money on only two occasions in our 1 year and three month relationship, and she only asked because she was broke at the moment and needed money one time for a dentist visit and the other to get her annual pap smear. Both times a trivial amount of 50$ I know how this could be viewed by a CO. Either that it is proof of ongoing relationship and that I do love and care for her or mistakenly think she is looking for a meal ticket. I think it is good evidence, as it is a receipt with a date and both of our names. Dicey though...thoughts????



I included money transfer receipts in our "evidence" We had actually worked out a budget for two households. Alla had a good job, so we more or less combined our bills and income and developed two budgets, which meant I sent a regular contribution to my family in Ukraine. I presented this thinking it could not look like anything else than two serious, adult people, in a relationship, who made adult decisions and operated on a budget like anyone in a similar situation would. I proudly presented the evidence. As it turned out, there was no comment whatsoever about it, I cannot say it helped, it certainly did not hurt. Mostly I think it was ignored as the screener ended up taking only 4 photos as "evidence", the rest he just kind of looked at and mumbled.

I have heard it is bad at some consulates and viewed as "paying for a bride" I can say that a planned budget is NOT a bd thing in the Kiev consulate, at least not that day, but check with people in the regional forums. You should have plenty of evidence without it anyway.

My thought process was the same....

Read the earlier answers, which are on the basis of completely sound reasoning. At some consulates, even a little evidence of money changing hands can prove negative.

I read the earlier answers which is why I responded.......I will consider myself lucky then, but it was a contributing part of my evidence. As well as debit card transactions from Colombia, which I am sure they also knew the money wasn't only for spending on myself.

I am not sure of why none of you would do it. I used a stack of Western Union receipts, they actually had both of our names, had a wide range of dates during the entire relationship. I do not think it is that uncommon to assist your fiance, I wanted her to have a better life than what her job alone could provide in Colombia. I offered to send her money, she didn't ask me first and I continued to help every month. Her work history will be listed and possibly verified on the paperwork you send in. I just don't think sending money is buying love, unless it really is in your particular relationship. Just another thought...

P.S. Not exactly related, but I didn't want to create another thread. Do they only need a photo copy of the birth certificate or do they want the original document?

Yes it should be K-1 visa

I am getting ready to get started on the process of applying for a K-1 visa for my fiancee and since this is new to me I have a few questions that I can use help with.

1. I am just starting a new job after being unemployed for almost a year. I have a base month salary and plus my employer has also offered my fiancee a job after she gets here and we get married. He is willing to write a letter to USCIS, or is there a form he needs to fill out with that information?

2. I am getting copies of divorce degrees and I notice on the form G-325 they want when and where marriages had taken place, is the year and city enough or do they want the exact dates?

3. On the form G-325 they also ask for dates of birth of ex-spouses I do not have that information, a couple of them passed away already as well. How do you I provide that information if I do not have it?

We have letters from the pastors of the church I attend stating that I have seeked counseling from him on advice of the marriage and guidance. That he is willing and happy to marry us once she arrives in the U.S. We have photos of my trip there to visit her and family, receipts, boarding pass, passport photo, copies or emails, instant message conversations, text messages, ecards, phone bills and phone card purchases. If there other things that will help or are needed please let me know so I may start getting that information too.

Any assistance or advice will be greatly appreciated as we want the process to go smoothly and prayerfully quickly.

Not sure where you are getting your copies of divorce decrees....but they need to be original or certified copies.

Alright well im reading the supporting documents and its saying that the fee is $455 which is manageable but a lawyer told me that there was also a processing fee.
Also im living with a roomate right now but the lease is up in a month and I plan on getting an apartment on my own so that my fiance and i can live together and get married when he arrives.
Should I wait to file the paperwork if my address is going to be changing?
He does not have a job right now but will eventually. Should I wait for that as well?
And the reason he got denied was because he had been coming in and out the country every three months on the visa waiver program and got denied becuase he needed an actual visa.
He never overstayed his visit and he never broke any of the laws.
I am also 20 and he is 21 will that be a problem?


If you're only filing a petition for the K1, then the fee is currently $455. Any other fees the lawyer told you about were fees he was going to charge you. There WILL be more fees later on for medical, visa application, plane tickets, etc. The whopper comes after he gets his visa and you're married in the US - $1010 to get his conditional green card.

You can submit a change of address with USCIS after you file the petition, but you may not need to. If you take your time and do this right then you probably won't have your paperwork ready before you move anyway. Do you have a signed letter of intent from your fiance? How about 4 signed pages of his G-325A? Passport style photo of him taken within the last 30 days? Don't rush the paperwork. As I said, it is meticulous. Small mistakes can cause delays or even a denial of your petition.

It makes absolutely no difference if he's working. The US government doesn't care. However, it wouldn't hurt if both of you are working and saving some money because you've got some big expenses coming.

The age shouldn't be a problem. As long as you're both old enough to marry in your state.

You still have at least 7 months, I would think, before you'll need the income documents and affidavits of support from you and your mother. Your fiance will need to bring these documents to the US consulate when he has his interview. BTW, I wouldn't tell them that you don't declare all of your tips on your tax return. I realize that a lot of people who earn tips in addition to wages do not declare all of their tips, but it's not something you admit to the US government.





THANK YOU SO MUCH I REALLY APPRECIATE IT
WOULD YOU MIND SENDING ME A LIST OF EVERYTHING I NEED TO SEND WITH MY APPLICATION?
I KNOW IT SAYS ON THE NET WHAT I NEED BUT IF ITS BROKEN DOWN TO ME HERE I WILL BE ABLE TO FIGURE IT OUT WITHOUT ANY MISTAKES smile.gif
AND THE SIGNED LETTER OF INTENT BASICALLY JUST STATES THAT WE ARE GOING TO MARRY WITHIN 90 DAYS CORRECT?
I FOUND ONE ON THE NET WHERE YOU JUST ENTER YOUR NAMES ACTUALLY ITS ON THIS WEBSITE IS THAT OK?




AND ALSO FOUR PAGES OF THE 325-A?
WHY FOUR THATS CONFUSING.
ITS ALL SOOOO CONFUSING sad.gif

Really the best advice I think anyone can give you at this time is to take a deep breath...read the help you have been offered, print a copy of a cover letter and use it as a checklist, work on one form at a time as well as anything you need to accompany that form. Everything will be ok!!

This is not a tax forum, but an immigration forum.

OP, you will be fine.

When you get to the consular stage, your mother will need to sign some paperwork. Depending on how much money you make when you file AOS next year, you may need your mother to help again.

As for being denied entry, it happens (to us actually too). You should be prepared for a little more scrutiny at USCIS, but you will be fine.

Best of Luck.

Ok so I just need to file my the fiance visa with my proof of working and income tax returns I am just afraid they will deny me should I have my mom send something saying she is willing to help as well while I turn in the application

Just use the guides for K1 visa on this site and pay attention to what paperwork is needed to file using a sponsor and you will have all of the info you need. Many folks use sponsors it is not uncommon. You will need mom later in the process.

It's not that she's not being honest about her income. In the United States, servers are NOT required to report their tips as income.

If your mother has enough income of her own to make up the required amount and would be willing to be a co-sponsor, his K-1 Visa can be approved. I was in between jobs at the time, and my parents co-sponsored my now husband. They just require copies of their bank statements, etc during the K-1 visa process. Once you file for AOS down the road, they will require tax return statements.

Basically, if you have a co-sponsor who is willing to sign legal paperwork to ensure he has some financial support and does not become a burden to the state, then it will be approved. Does he have income or assets of his own with any value? That can be used as well.

Not to start "A should I claim all of my earned income on my taxes or not thread" but I think unless tax laws have changed you are required to claim all earned incomes and file your taxes accordingly. The formula the restaurant uses a % of sales is not all gratuities earned. By not claiming it lowers your ability to buy a car, house, get credit, sponsor your fiance etc..I am no different than the next guy not wanting to overpay on taxes, and certainly not pointing fingers. My point is if she was claiming all of her tips she might have the tax returns to show the amount above the poverty threshold on her own when filing the affidavit of support. Now she will need the sponsor.

Hi,

Does anyone know of a good certified translator for Spanish to English in Cali?

Thanks in advance.





FYI: I tried to add my timeline for the second time. I'm not sure if I succeeded.

Hey all! I didn't abandon the thread just took some time away I have been busy and planning the wedding and my daughters were with me for their spring break etc..... for some reason I have had issues to post interview reviews and POE reviews...still not resolved. I took copious voice notes of every step of the way so if anyone needs help I will be happy to answer any questions. It is good to be back to the thread.
