K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresWhat a great site!

Welcome and good luck! Where your papers sent to Vermont or California? I was sent to Vermont my NOA1 date was June 25. :) We will be waiting together.


Ours were sent to California. My only concern now is what the Obama amnesty will do to our timeframes.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresBarcode on DS-156

It won't hurt anything to go ahead and fill out and print the DS-156. The beneficiary can just sign and date it right before it is time for the interview.


I'm doing the same thing. Takes the stress off the preparation.

Wow, your quick response to your fiancé's posting and the tone of your voice makes it pretty clear that you DO intend to lie and fake an employment that doesn't exist.

Hey, good luck with that! Posted Image

And WE'RE the uninformed ones? Gee, thanks boss. Yes, why don't you move along since you clearly know everything, and us ignorant rednecks will just sit around drinking moonshine...

It's my understanding if you are above the guidelines then you just need the pays stubs, tax transcripts, W-2 and letter of employment. Occasionally they can ask for the bank statements if your self employed. Others can chim in and correct me if I am wrong.

http://www.visajourn..._1#entry5642124

I watched those all around us getting approved and we were not. Then a week of so later we got our noa2. So keep the faith and keep looking for that approval.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresFood stamps

He didn't ask for their opinons of people who get food stamps or analysis of his personal situation. He asked specific information and thiose that criticized him fail to answer the question.

She can use her passport as ID to fly to Hawaii, and YES he can get food stamps. Those are the answers the rest is pompous BS. We have a system to help people that need it, if someone does not like thaqt there are avenues to pursue that do not include ridicule of people using the system we have. I will note that those "taxpayers" will gladly take any sort of tax credit or deduction they can which is also part of our system and is in no way different than any other subsidy given by the government. Gripe about someone getting $3500 in food stamps but gladly take a $5200 education credit, $1000 per child credit, chiold care credit and ad nauseum until in fact they really pay no income tax at all. 47% of Americans pay NO income tax after deductions and credits.

People need to have a little more thought in their process.

The other problem, and main problem here is this ridiculous Affidavot of Support which should no teven exist. Eliminate and simply make family based visa recipients ineleigible for public aid until they are citizens. Period. Job done. This process of trying to determine HOW they will get the money BACK if your spouse becomes a public charge is STUPID. Why not just NOT give the money to begin with? :wacko:


I'm one of the 53% paying for the 47% 100% of the time........ :bonk: :whistle:

I am new to this web site which I found very interesting, lots of information.

I just met a girl, and I am planing to visit her soon, she is in Manila, right after that, I will file the I-129, my question is the following: I am about 25 years older than her, does any body know if this will be an issue to get the application approved?

Thank you.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresWhat's needed at p.o.e.

After reading the reviews on Seattle POE it sounds like it is pretty harmless.

In fact, the Customs Officer who checked me in on arrival asked what I was in the Philippines for. When I told him I was out there to propose to my girlfriend he said "That's awesome! It's really easy to get a K1 Visa to bring her here. Call USCIS and inquire about it." Seattle will be my fiancee's POE too, I live an hour outside, and it made me feel comforable hearing his comment. I have a feeling they are used to processing a LOT of K1 Visa's through Seattle, so your fiancee shouldn't have any problems.

Hope she has a safe trip and congratulations!! :dance: :thumbs:


I'd have to agree. When I came back last week from the interview, they took the time to tell me what she needed to do and how long it would take. Very nice group....

Complete your I134, get copies of the tax return, W2, bank statement and pay stubs. Also make sure to have your appointment letter and BPI reciept and evidence of relationship. You will do just fine.
