K-3 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresWhat Next??????
Hi everyone

I'm Allan's wife Kristy, thank you all for your help we are very new to all this and a bit confused is to which path to take. I filled in the timeline as much as i could i hope it helps. Our plan was to go with the K3 because we were told it was the fastest way to get Allan here. But from what i have read @ visajourney it seems like the CR-1 is just as fast with less hassle. The only thing that we have done so far is mailed our I130 and rec'd our 1st NOA in the mail. We are just confused on what step to take next. Any input would be great. Thanks again

Hi Everyone,

My husband and I got my interview letter today. We're so happy that the USCIS are working so fast! good.gif good.gif My interview appointment will be on Sept. 29, 2009 at 6:30 AM in Dallas, Texas. My husband was wondering about the time "6:30 AM?" Are they really open at 6:30 in the morning? For those who had their interview in Dallas please share your interview experienced.

Thanks and we really appreciate your input. good.gif good.gif

Congrats my husband and I had a 7am appt at the Dallas, Tx office back in Feb to get our I-130 forms...... But we set it online, this was before we submitted anything and didn't know how to go about the Visa process so we got a appt for they to explain it to us. Good luck

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsVisiting Fiance during K1 process
when my husband and i were going thru our process he visited me from Ireland several times but the first time was denied because he could not prove him was coming back. So we waited a month and tried again this time he had a letter from his employer and from his lease manager saying he was signed into a lease for 6 more months etc. They never looked at it twice and allowed him thru 3 more times before we were approved... he stayed for 90 days at a time.... check out cheaptickets.com it has always saved us alot on tickets... good luck

I'm not sure if CR1 is the same as K-1 but if you don't have any kids it's $17,850 or something close to that. But when my fiance went to the Dublin embassy they only looked at the last year of income, not the last 3 years.



Check the poverty guide lines site that No Where Man gave you, then you will know for sure. You financial for the embassy is based on the last year filed for taxes, plus any other assets "if have" Best to file the 2008 ASAP, I would say.



I hope it's only for the last year. I was hardly worked in '06 and only for half of '07 (I had a baby). Here are the 2009 poverty guidelines: http://aspe.hhs.gov/...09poverty.shtml

You have to make 125% of that to not need a second sponsor.

Where are ye from in IRL? I'm a Dub




I'm from Texas my husband is from Dundalk
