K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresAffidavit of Support
It is needed to prove that the US citizen can support the family. If you cannot support the family then they wont issue a visa unless you have someone who can co-sponsor.
It is needed at the interview and at the AOS stage after marriage.

Basically, they are not going to let people into america unless they know they will not become a bum and live off the government.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresWhen does the 90dys start?????
What K-1 90 days?

There is no K-1 90 days. After the K-1 is issued you have 6 months to use it.

When you enter to the USA - the 90 days starts the day you entered, in which you must get married.


You are totally confused and the NOA2 expiration has nothing to do with you or any of your filing. It is for the US embassy.

Most interviews are done with the interviewer behind a giant glass window. There is only a slot big enough for papers to pass through. Forget about books and binders.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresASC APPOINTMENT

Hey one more thing. On the k1 checklist it's asking me for a proof of US citizenship of the petitioner. Should I have her send me her birth certificate?

Oh really? So she won't even get interviewed at all? Should I have her send me the signed I-134 forms by mail?



No she wont have an interview at all.
Yes the 134 forms need to have original signatures on them so best to mail / courier them and their supporting documents to you.

The appointment is only for the beneficiary - the person getting the visa.

There is no other appointments for anyone else - the USC has no appointment.

Inky, as an Organizer. you were asked to delete the post. Not add Lib..... Yeah. Something to do I guess...


Sorry but the person posted first and then changed their post AFTER I had already posted. Also - organizers cannot delete anything. They can only move posts to correct places.

I did not add lib anything and I was not asked to delete anything.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresWOW INTERVIEW THIS WEEK, WHAT TO DO?!!!!!

Can't believe we are to this point.. exciting and nerve racking at the same time. Notice on the security section you can only bring plastic bag, only problem it will not all carry in a plastic bag any suggestions? On visajourney site many times it mentions fiance' needs to have all documents that were sent to the USCIS along with application papers needed for interview, so that is going to be alot to carry by hand without us of a bag.


If the security notice says you are only allowed a plastic bag then that is all you can bring.
Maybe try and find a really large plastic bag or use 2 plastic bags if you have to but you cant really go around the rules they use.

The reason people on VJ say to bring the original petition to the interview is in case they have lost something so you can just hand them the paper at the interview instead of waiting extra time to send them papers you didn't have at the interview time. Basically you do not have to bring anything extra other than what the interview checklist says - that is your choice to bring the extra papers if you want to be extra certain, it is not required to bring the original petition.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresShould we front load?

For my proof of ongoing relationship.. I may have encountered a problem..., my fiancé in the us has my computer and we communicate all the time via magicjack.. Now I made the magicjack a local number for me here so there is no long distance charges, I've had this phone and records of calling it everyday for over a year..

How can I prove I'm calling my fiancé at this number???


i'm not sure about this - we just used vonage to call each other.

we used things like e-cards / snail mail / emails / printed out MSN chats the vonage records, Movie ticket stubs from the theater near him photos, vacation itinerarys, tickets, photos.
screen shots of our online game we played with our characters - facebook msgs to-from each other also from family to him congratulating the engagement.

you can use just about anything as proof.

Wait, I need the USC's ORIGINAL BIRTH CERT for MY interview?? Won't the copy of the one we included in the I-129f be enough??


they asked for his (USC ) original at my interview - i wasn't going to bring it with me but i was glad i did.
InkyFemaleCanada2012-02-14 14:16:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresPapers for interview.

that is so good. When I made the binder for my fiancee. I put each item in a plastic protective sleeve. First copy is the original with 2 copies behind it. I really hope they don't keep any of my originals. They are hard and expensive to get. Especially my birth certificate with the apostille attached to it.


Ask for all originals back after the interview - they should not be keeping any of them if they have seen the original and a copy of it.
If you don't ask they may just keep it.
InkyFemaleCanada2012-02-14 10:50:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresPapers for interview.
They asked at my interview for the original USC birth certificate and divorce decree.
They wanted to see it next to the copy for proof.
They looked at every page of his divorce decree and specially at the stamp seal on it.
They gave back both originals and kept the copys.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresGetting married while awaiting Visa NOA2
A legal marriage is a legal marriage. If you get married its valid in the USA.

You waste your K-1 you go home to the USA alone and file and pay more money for a spousal petition and you start from the bottom of the pile with a year long wait ahead of you.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresLiving in Canada but not yet a resident

She doesn't have to be a resident, but she has to be there legally/lawfully if she wants her interview in Canada.


The visa she is on also must be valid before and after the interview. Generally they will not interview if the visa is close to expiration and the visa will need to be renewed before they will interview.

Having a child doesn't make a difference. Packet 4 is the interview letter and information on what to bring to the interview. You can try stalling that long but you will have to contact the embassy and speak to them about it. If you do not speak to them they will just call your case abandoned when you do not contact them.
