Asia: South	Fiancee's K-1 Visa Approved	QUOTE (Tinker @ Sep 13 2007, 12:01 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Congratulations.....all the C.O. really asked me about was Jim's motorcylce And that, in a nutshell, is the difference between an interview at a low-fraud consulate vs a high-fraud consulate! Congratulations to you both! And that was a nice, detailed account of her experience, too. Very helpful. Best wishes for a safe trip to the US and a sweet reunion!

Asia: South	Do I need I134 or I864 or both?	From reading here on VJ, it is my understanding that different consulates want different things. If it were me, I would give them what they ask for. The I-134 is not a big deal to prepare, and actually less binding than the I-864, from what I've read. I'd make sure your wife has both in hand (plus copies for your file) when she goes for her interview. I've read more than one story here where someone tried to challenge some immigration official on a questionable requirement and it didn't go over too well, so unless it's something that would cause you a great deal of difficulty to provide, (or you can't possibly provide anyhow for whatever reason, or something that would actually prevent or delay the visa substantially for no good reason), I'd just do it. I think in this process you have to pick your battles very carefully, and I-134 vs I-864 vs both is not one of the ones worth fighting imho. Them's my $.02. Good luck!

Asia: South	AOS Approved!	CONGRATS Eileen and Nagaraju! Woo hoo! Feels good, eh? Just a quick observation: I am the queen of screwing up on dates, but I think 90 days before the 2 years is up for y'all will be July 2009 rather than July 2008. Only reason I noticed is because our 90 day window opens 8-8-08 and I thought to myself "how could their window be before our window?". Because, after all, this is a race... isn't it? Way to go Maya	maya62	Female	Nepal	9/19/2007 7:28
Asia: South	Happy Dashain!!	Happy Dashain, Nepali satthis! Our son misses this festival time, too... being off from school, going back to the village to play with friends and go to family gatherings, eating meat (he's a carnivorous creature... lol). But this is also the time of year when the Buddhists pray for all the animals that are being sacrificed. I've missed it twice on fall visits to Nepal, but have seen traces of blood still here and there (like on the front of the mini-van we took to go to their village). There were some brief Dashain prayers on Radio Dovan yesterday (a one-hour Nepali radio show originating in DC on Sunday afternoons). D&G, you are together in spirit, and with the help of Ganesh, you will be together next Dashain. We are completely sympathetic... S's parents are quite elderly, too (in their early 80's). Here's hoping things go smoothly and you are back in Nepal again soon (for an interview!). Best wishes, Maya	maya62	Female	Nepal	10/15/2007 7:42

Asia: South	Regarding Work Visa : Specific question... Pls Hekp	Amlan! Wow! You are here in the US! Back in August you were asking about a tourist visa... now you are here with a work visa.

Asia: South	beneficiarie's assets & age difference ???	Proof of your visit to your fiancee in the US is excellent evidence that your intentions are genuine. Be sure to provide copies of your airline boarding passes (and any other documents relative to that visit, especially items that indicate the two of you spent time together) to your fiancee for use in your original K-1 petition to the USCIS. Best wishes! Maya	maya62	Female	Nepal	1/9/2008 10:34

Asia: South	Intercultural communication styles	Well I read the Loving an African Man thread, and the old S. Asian thread about PDA's. Here's my $.02: My husband sometimes has a blank facial expression at a time when one would expect someone from our culture to register happiness, delight, or possibly anger. He is also not a big gift-giver, and I am the one who always wants to help his family nowadays. He wants to save our money to buy land in Kathmandu, build a small house, which we can then rent out to family. He says that would be most helpful. Actually, they say that, too. He will not argue with me. We have had very few disagreements over the past 3 years (one year apart, two years living together). Usually, our pattern is: I get upset about something. He either does not engage, or apologizes for something that isn't his fault and then I feel like an Uberbitch because he's so accomodating, or we spend a few minutes each sulking in our own corner (figuratively) and then one of us approaches the other and apologizes and we both fall all over ourselves accepting blame. I have noticed a real difference in parenting styles, which may be of interest to those who intend to have kids. He shows almost NO physical affection for his son! I know he loves him, and our son knows he loves him, but there are no hugs or kisses. This makes me crazy at times. I know it is just his way, and that it is how he was raised. I just hope our son doesn't wonder/worry/turn out psycho because of it. It doesn't seem like it bothers him now... I still kiss him goodnight, and hug him from time to time when he'll let me (11 year olds! ), and sometimes even when he really doesn't want me to... today he told me that I don't have to walk him down the driveway to the school bus anymore. According to him, I'm the only mom (of kids his age) that still does this. So I waited on the porch But I have noticed in Nepal, while I have seen adults hold children (as in carry them), I have not seen hugging or kissing of children there either. Maybe babies, but definitely not older children... Kids are all the time leaning or hanging on adults, or just sitting really close to them or on them, and the adults don't even comment on it... it's very natural... I guess the kids get their "touch" from that... our son does. He often links arms with his dad or me, just when walking or hanging out (it is very common for men to hold hands or walk with their arms around each other in Nepal, but they have no idea how that looks to many westerners... it is not a sign of acceptance of gay people... some Nepalis think they don't exist!!). But our son is now aware of western perceptions about affection between males and, although we are teaching him to accept gay people (his aunt, my sister, is gay), he does not want to be perceived as gay (like a lot of 11 yo boys, I guess). When there is disciplinary action to be taken, we are usually on the same page, but that wasn't always the case. The first few times S got mad at A, he was all set to whack him one and I intervened. That happened 3 times. The third time, I actually tackled my husband! So I got some videos about discipline from a coworker who helps families who have problems with abuse and other things, and we watched them together. It hasn't happened since. I give him great credit for modifying his behaviour based on this new perspective. Regarding affection, S (my husband) is very demonstrative. More so in private, it's true, but he is fine with holding hands, or hugging, or a little peck in public. I've a few other things, but no more time. This is bloody long anyhow! Sorry... There it is. I get along with my husband better than I ever thought I could get along with any man, but it is only because he is SUCH a sweetie. I am the same ole dragon lady I always was!

Asia: South	Intercultural communication styles	It has been really interesting to me to see how things shake out on the Mars vs cultural attributes! I'm going to read the other thread when I have a chance, and come back and comment... Good idea for a topic! Maya	maya62	Female	Nepal	1/14/2008 8:30
Asia: South	Anybody studying your SO's language?	LOL Dolma... I am trying to learn Devanagari (and Nepali) too. There are some of the plain old single letters I still haven't got yet! And I have no excuse because I have two teachers-in-residence now. Except that we are working on English most of the time... I think I finally got the "tra" stacked letter under my belt. I have resigned myself to the idea that I will never speak Nepali as well as S&A speak English (unless of course we move to Nepal and live there for several years ). But I have occasional bursts of effort... We speak Neplish around the house every day, but it doesn't usually go past talking about being hungry, tired, come here, let's go, and of course, sweet nothings... And we say "dhanyabad" WAY too much! Maybe we should start an online Nepali language class and teach each other... Maya	maya62	Female	Nepal	8/31/2007 7:56
Asia: South	Entry level IT jobs for new immigrants?	Asking here, or in the Moving to America forum is a good idea, but I'd also ask in OT... it gets so much more traffic and your question is not really country or region specific. I had a couple of other thoughts... English classes in Kathmandu would almost certainly help him - maybe a lot- once he comes here, imho, unless his English is very good already, and whether he continues with the computer internship or not. Is it possible (I have no idea) to take an online computer course offered by a US institution (I'm thinking along the lines of that Phoenix University, or whatever it is...), but access it from Kathmandu? Maya	maya62	Female	Nepal	2/21/2008 8:52
Asia: South	Hindu beneficiary/non-South Asian petitioner	Religion did not come up at S's interview, but I did mention as part of my answer to the infamous question 18 (on the I-129F) that I was visiting Nepal originally due in part to my interest in Buddhism. At least one of the pictures we submitted was taken inside the Buddhist temple at Swoyambhu (by the man who is the caretaker there) and both of us are doing namaste. And as part of preparing S for his interview, we discussed the fact that a question might arise about religion and that it was one thing we have in common (even though the Buddhism I had been practicing for about 5 years and up til we met was more Mahayana/Zen and his is Very Vajryana ). I think you guys are ALL OVER the religion question and I would make sure they know it. I bet there is a note somewhere, maybe pinned to their copy of your Affidavit of Eligibilty to Marry, about your exchange with the CO about your religion, and maybe even about what you were wearing. Just curious... was G allowed inside the Consulate? S was not (on my first visit, but then again, he didn't have a passport at that point).

Asia: South	POE experiences for K1 Visa holders	Joe11, You can read lots of POE reviews here: http://www.visajourn.../poereviews.php Or, if there's a specific VJ member whose POE experience you're interested in, you can click on their name, go to the lower left of their profile, click on timeline, and read about their POE experience. We had good luck at JFK... no crowd (that seems to depend on how many planes arrive from overseas at the same time as yours), friendly IO, got the temp EAD, etc... Best wishes to you and your fiancee, and congratulations on overcoming the 221G! Happy landings! Maya	maya62	Female	Nepal	3/18/2008 7:54
Asia: South	K1 visa question for India - Please answer	We went through Nepal, but I'll chime in anyway... Being from a small town is not a strike against her! Not speaking English means that they (the DOS CO that interviews her at the Consulate) will probably want to see that you both have a language in common. If you both speak Hindi, for example, you may want to find out a way to demonstrate that to the CO. I've heard of people submitting videotape of the couple conversing in their native language as evidence of a common language other than English. I also don't believe that her family's absence from your US wedding will count against her. I'm sure they understand that economics and immigration hurdles are too much for some families to deal with. They (the Consular Officers) are interested in whether or not you have a valid relationship, entered into for reasons other than immigration benefits. Hopefully others here will be able to advise you about how to prove that in the circumstance of an arranged marriage, but I am sure that evidence that you communicate regularly (letters, emails, chat transcripts, phone records, etc...) will be just as important for you as they are for everyone else. Documented visits (with boarding passes, photos, etc...) are EXCELLENT evidence. Perhaps some sort of documentation of how the arranged marriage came to be arranged would be helpful. What decision do you need to make soon? Best wishes, Maya	maya62	Female	Nepal	4/3/2008 8:01
Asia: South	Should I go to India for my fiancee's interview	Congratulations Bengalilover! Best wishes for a safe journey home. Maya	maya62	Female	Nepal	5/13/2008 11:51
Asia: South	Should I go to India for my fiancee's interview	I have also heard of situations where the USC fiance(e) was not allowed into the interview, but the non-USC interviewee took the USC's US passport into the interview and showed it to the CO and let the CO know that the USC fiance(e) was there at the Consulate in case there were any questions or problems. Best of luck! I told my (then) fiance to remain calm, smile a bit, and let his love show. He did fine and your fiancee will, too. Maya	maya62	Female	Nepal	4/22/2008 7:36
Asia: South	Story of Kshatriya	QUOTE (bengalilover @ Apr 14 2008, 01:02 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Maya62: that link is not working. Could you repost? Kshatriya: I am sorry to hear your story. Please speak to a lawer immediately. St Louis has few good lawer. I don't know why the link won't work. Here's how to get there: go to USCIS.gov at the top, choose "About USCIS" on the left, choose "Electronic Reading Room" in the middle of the page, choose "Administrative Decisions" in the middle of the page, choose "D6" then choose the year I referred to in my earlier post then choose the date I referred to in my earlier post These are all past decisions made in an appeal process in cases where the original petition was denied and the applicant appealed that decision. I think they're interesting and go quickly once you figure out where in the boilerplate to find the crux of the issue and what the decision was, and why. I read a couple of years worth of them while I was creating our petition and then waiting for the NOA2. It definitely gives the sense that, if you can't prove you met, or come up with an utterly water-tight reason why you can't meet your fiance(e) in the two years prior to filing, you are wasting your time filing a petition. Maya	maya62	Female	Nepal	4/15/2008 13:06
Asia: South	Story of Kshatriya	Kshatriya, I agree with brnidokiegirl, you have to act fast if you want to try to turn this around. Please see the link provided to Sauron's story, in your other thread. Please read his story carefully. Then, I don't know if this will help you, but this is the way to find the USCIS appeal I referred him to: Go to: http://www.uscis.gov...errFrameset.jsp choose Administrative Decisions after August 1, 2000 choose D6 Fiancyes and Fiancys of US Citizen (K-1) choose 2003 choose apr2203_01d6101.pdf The critical paragraph (imho) is near the end: It is concluded that, if the petitioner's marriage is not recognized for immigration purposes in order to have an immigrant visa petition approved, then the petitioner cannot be considered "married" for the purpose of denying a fiance(e) visa petition. I wish you luck. Maya And may I say, it sounds like USC K1 petitioners might consider warning their fiance(e) about the possibility of this happening during their interview, and telling their Indian fiance(e)s not to sign something that says you're married if you are, or believe you are, in fact, not married! Or they could just say something to this effect: "My understanding to the best of my knowledge is that I am not married under Indian law." It seems they are being bullied into guessing at their marriage status in the eyes of the law when they don't know what the law is! Just my $.02 This stuff makes me so angry!	maya62	Female	Nepal	4/14/2008 11:37

Asia: South	Useful website for people traveling to/from Nepal	I think I've used an agent for all four trips (my memory s*cks these days). I had a friend who was a travel agent, but she's since retired. Last trip I used Manoj at Travel House Nepal. I've saved hundreds, too, doing through agents rather than purchasing tickets online. I've used e-tickets for domestic flights and I'd feel comfortable using them for Europe, but not Nepal. When I brought S & A back, I bought my own ticket RT here, and I think I made reservations here for S & A for one-way tickets back to the US, but waited until we had the visas in hand to actually purchase the tickets in Ktm. We flew that trip Ktm-Bangkok-JFK and drove back to VA. Let me know if you hear of any deals! Maya	maya62	Female	Nepal	7/30/2008 12:27

Asia: South	Overstayed Visa	AVISA, this little corner of VJ doesn't get enough traffic, in my opinion, for a question like yours. I suggest re-posting your question in either the K3, CR1, or waiver forums to get a good answer (or several). I believe overstays can get you banned, depending on the length of the overstay, so she may need a waiver, which is why I include that forum as one of the suggestions. And the name on her passport shouldn't and probably won't matter. Of course she must answer all questions about previous visits truthfully (and it will be asked on her application), no matter which passport she was using. Lying will get her a ban for sure. Good luck to your friend. Maya Edited by maya62, 22 August 2008 - 07:43 AM.	maya62	Female	Nepal	8/22/2008 7:41

Asia: South	Indian wealthy under fire for cruelty to servants	A touch of realism in Bollywood... how refreshing! Ever since reading a couple of books by Rohinton Mistry (which I could not put down), I have been interested in the caste system in both India and Nepal (my husband's country, and very similar in many ways). It is supposedly illegal in both countries, but still very much a part of everyday life. The caste system, cruelty of the wealthy perpetrated against the poor, and the whole chai pani thing are just like a bad car wreck that one can't look away from... There is a lot of this sort of cruelty in Nepal, too. The only video I've seen that was made by and about my husband's ethnic group has a plot theme of injust treatment by upper caste people. No wonder the lower caste people flocked to the Maoist revolution in droves. And just recently, the new Maoist govt has made indentured servitude (sort of like sharecropping I think) illegal. It remains to be seen how the govt will provide for these people who may now find themselves landless and unemployed unless land reform is also in place simultaneously. And I learned recently that there are more enslaved people alive today than ever before in the history of humankind. It is a smaller proportion of the total population, but the total population is so vast nowadays, that even this smaller segment is a larger population of enslaved people than ever before.

Asia: South	Waiting is driving me bananas!! What is the longest/shortest time anyone on here has waited for their fiance to get to the USA?	We were very lucky... but also went through Nepal, not India. 2nd visit ended 3-17-05 (we tried unsuccessfully to do DCF during this visit) I-129F filed 6-18-05 US arrival 10-21-05 total separation time: just over 7 months (before that, we were separated from Oct '04, when we met, to March '05... another 6 months) Our visa journey could've been even shorter. We lost time waiting for packet 3, which got lost in Kathmandu. We lost time waiting for a police certificate from Arunachal Pradesh, India, that we probably didn't need. We lost time trying to get my (now) husband's visa application to look presentable (I finally typed it up here and sent it over to him... which reminds me: we lost time when DHL lost my first package and I had to resend via Fedex). But we are NOT complaining about any of it... overall, we were very fortunate! I'm just saying that if we had filed immediately on my return from my second visit, and if we had not had the unnecessary delays, our separation could've been as short as 3 months or less! IOW, none of our delays were caused by either USCIS or the State Dept, both of which were VERY quick and efficient. So there is hope, at least... Best wishes on a speedy journey for you...

Asia: South	Got Interview Letter today	You could take your package to one of those mailing stores and have them give you a quote for Fedex's rate, then decide. I can't remember what I paid to send our Evidence of a Continuing Relationship, but it was less than $75 (by a lot, I think). Of course, it wasn't reams either... maybe 50 pages of an assortment of things spanning the time we were apart... letters, cards, emails, a couple of phone bills. 'Course that was when I thought that I'd be able to get there for his interview, bringing the rest of the Evidence with me (and I said so in a cover letter with the Evidence). We hardly ever chatted and only spoke by phone maybe twice a month, but we emailed daily. We decided to go with Fedex because DHL lost our first package . I also fax'd a letter to the Consulate right before S's interview, offering to fax them anything they wanted, and giving all my contact info and saying please call me if there's any question or concern. They didn't, and I don't know if my letter helped or was even noticed, but I felt better doing SOMETHING... I'd be happy share it with you if I haven't already... just an idea...

Asia: South	Does your Country charge Foreigner more than Local?	Walking around the whole hill in the early morning sounds lovely, especially with the lama's Ama! Those monkeys are ferocious, though, eh? We saw one of them rush a little girl in front of us who was carrying a bag of chips and just snatch it from her, quick as you please. Fortunately he didn't hurt her. But I've also read stories of people who have been bitten by them and have to undergo rabies shots at CIWEC. I'd be scared to trust any vaccine in Nepal (how do they keep them refrigerated with all the load shedding and fuel shortages?!?). S knows of one guy who went through post-exposure but died anyway because the vaccine was bad from poor/no refrigeration. I'm pre-exposure vaccinated because of my job, but I worry about S & A... We should be in KTM in either late June or early July, depending on soccer activities in VA around that time (everything revolves around soccer in our family!! ). It would be GREAT to meet up if it works out... I'll let you know when we have firmer plans. We got plane tickets in 2007 on fairly short notice... Gulf Air, I think it was. We flew DC > London > Muscat, Oman > Kathmandu (nearly had the plane to ourselves on the last leg) and returned Kathmandu > Bahrain > London > DC. It went pretty smoothly and was the cheapest of anything I saw around that time... just under $1500 pp RT. But let me know if you hear of something better!!
