K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresCan you apply for tourist while you are waiting for your fiancee visa
You will most likely be wasting $100 in applying for a tourist visa. I have only ever heard of 1 tourist visa approval whilst K1 was in process. They will tell you that since you have intent to immigrate they cannot approve your tourist visa.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresEmergency AP
You can apply for emergency AP if you haven't applied for AOS - AP & EAD are now bundled with AOS. But you have to be married to apply for AP.

You don't need the hard copy NOA2 for the interview, but you do need it for AOS.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresPaying by Money Order
QUOTE (meow mix @ Nov 19 2007, 09:14 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
You can't check when a money order is cashed, if you want to know when the money has been processed, you really need to use a personal check - which also has the case number stamped on the back (although not always accurately) so you can check your status.
With a money order, you have to wait for your NOA w/ the case number to check status.


Most money order issuing companies have an 800 # you can call to verify the status of a money order. You will need the serial # off the M/O. Not sure if they can give you the numbers off the back, or issue a copy of the canceled check, but you can check to verify whether or not it was negotiated.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Proceduresinfo on denials
Read this thread to read about another VJer who got the same notice that you did. His petition was denied.

You will need to wait for the letter to find out the reason for denial and start either an appeal, or file a new petition with an IMBRA waiver.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresUK to USA

Exactly, which is why I said that after doing some research, it might be better to have him come over on a fiance visa instead of just getting married then him having to leave and come back on a spouse visa.

If we do decide to apply for a fiance visa while we are both here in the UK, are we going to have problems due to the fact that I am not working in the US? I have been visiting and travelling Europe for 8 months, so I obviously don't have recent paystubs. I am very fortunate in that my parents have supported me and will do so until we are established and have our feet on the ground in the US, but will this be good enough to get a fiance visa approved? Thank you!


Jenny, if you don't have income you will need someone to co-sponsor your fiancee. Or, in the UK they do allow the beneficiary to self sponsor if the assets are adequate.

To your other point, its probably a bit faster to go the K1 route, which you could easily start from the UK. But as another poster pointed out above, you'll just need someone in the US to mail things to you in the UK - something that is certainly manageable.

Good luck!!!! And welcome to VJ!

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresSome advice Pease!
From what I have seen in the UK thread, most people seem to be waiting 6 to 8 weeks to recieve the interview appointment after submitting packet 3 to the London embassy. It will take some time for them to get you in the system at the embassy before they will send you packet 3. I'm sure you can prepare packet 3 whilst in the US. The only possible issue that could force you back to the UK earlier than anticipated (IMO) is the scheduling of your medical. Check around in the UK forum - you'll get lots of good info there. Good luck!

Thanks for the update! You should post your story in the IMBRA forum - it would be good for others with similar issues to know how this is being handle by the embassies.

I'm glad everything worked out for you guys!!!!

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresConfused about where to send the I-129
USCIS will only correspond with you to a US address, so what US address is listed on your application? That is the answer as to where the I129F should be sent.
