K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	After K1 and Wedding	1. Your immigration status is pending K-1. You can mention that you'll apply for permenant resident status shortly after entrance on your K-1 per the terms of the visa (just in case the application judges don't know what a K1 is) 2. Yes, people on K-1 have attended school. How and the costs are up to the school you apply for. Some will consider you a non-resident, some as pending resident have you thought of asking these questions to the school you're appling to? 3. you can leave the US anytime after you enter. However, if you'd like to re-enter the US after your wedding, you'll need your advanced parole document which can take up to 90 days to arrive. If you leave before you have your AP document or your green card, you cannot enter back on the K-1 and your AOS will be considered abandoned Good luck	canadian_wife	Female	Canada	2010-10-03 09:08:00

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	When can I go back to my country after marrying in the US?	Leaving the US is not the issue, you may leave at anytime. Returning to the US is the issue. The K-1 is a single entry visa - that means once you use it to enter the US, you cannot use it to enter the US again. In order to re-enter the US after you come on your K-1, you need your green card or your advanced parole document. Advanced parole is applied for when you submit your AOS documents.

While visiting is not a guarentee, the more prepared you are, the better chance you'll have at admittance. Oh, don't forget a copy of your K-1 packet Good luck	canadian_wife	Female	Canada	2010-10-06 04:47:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	Waiting with my fiancee in the US on a tourist visa	If you currently have a visa, of course you can try and visit. Admittance and duration of stay are up to the CBP at the time of crossing. There is no guarentee. Currently holding a valid tourist visa simply means you can apply for admission, it is not a guarentee of entrance. If you do not currently have a tourist visa, you may apply for one. You will need to provide strong ties to your home country - and if admitted, you may only stay for the allotted time Good luck	canadian_wife	Female	Canada	2010-10-11 07:49:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	CR-1 instead of K-1?	Because visiting the US with the intentions of getting married, and adjusting status is illegal. It's immigration fraud and carries a lifetime ban from the US. for most people, the risk isn't worth it Good luck	canadian_wife	Female	Canada	2010-10-12 08:03:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	CR-1 instead of K-1?	When we petioned, CSC was approving petitions in 2-4 months. We were stuck at VSC where we waited 178 days. So I know exactly how you feel. Don't lose more time by cancelling your petition, marrying, and then petioning again Good luck	canadian_wife	Female	Canada	2010-10-11 18:17:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	CR-1 instead of K-1?	If you cancel the K-1 now, you've wasted 3 months. SO that isn't good. Plus, the K-1 goes slightly faster than the CR-1 because of the time the CR-1 takes at NVC - which the K-1 does not. HOwever, the Cr-1 does allow for work and travel upon entrance. USCIS process at about 5 months - so if you cancel now, you'll still have to wait your processing time since K-1s and Cr-1 process at about the same time at USICS GOod luck	canadian_wife	Female	Canada	2010-10-11 17:45:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	Hit a major snag... it may be over	A co-sponsor doesn't have to be a family member, I know it is a lot to ask but is there a friend who can co-sponsor for you? Sorry to hear this, good luck	canadian_wife	Female	Canada	2010-10-11 13:49:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	Errors on G-325a and I-129F	Correct the mistakes on the Ds-230 and mention it at the interview. You can try calling the London consulate to see if they have any advice but I am not sure if they are like Montreal who doesn't receive calls Good luck	canadian_wife	Female	Canada	2010-10-06 06:27:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	Marriage possible?	You can get married anytime you want. However, if you get married before the K-1 is issued, you no longer qualify for the K-1 and all your fees and wait times are lost. You'd have to reapply for a spousal visa We got married in Canada and applied for a spousal visa Many people get married in the US and return to their home countries to carry out the spousal visa process. The USC petitions for his/her spouse. But the K-3 is a dead visa, it is now the Cr-1 Good luck Edited by canadian_wife, 13 October 2010 - 09:06 PM.	canadian_wife	Female	Canada	2010-10-13 21:05:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	Can correcting mistakes be considered as misrepresentation?	During the interview, you'll be given an opportunity to correct any mistakes (as I had to on our petition). I'd correct the mistake and note the attempts you've made up to this point to correct the mistake Good luck	canadian_wife	Female	Canada	2010-10-09 15:11:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	Sunk before I have even started?	You should consult an immigration attorney, if he was deported in absentia, this WILL complicate your case. You must prove that he was not deported, but voluntarily left which I have NO idea how you do Laural Scott is an immigration attorney that offers free chats on Wednesdays at scottimmigration.net. Ask her what you need to do to ensure he is not considered a deportee or a deportation absconder Good luck	canadian_wife	Female	Canada	2010-10-16 04:55:00

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	Do you have to use it right away?	This has been done, but only for Canadians for some reason. It is totally up to the discretion of the CBP and may either make you enter with the K-1 or turn you around. BUT, if this is done once for you, it is unlikely it will be done again. Part of being granted this visa is no longer continuing to visit, but actually immigrating Good luck	canadian_wife	Female	Canada	2010-08-27 11:23:00

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	PLEASE guide me in the right direction.	First of all, tourist visas are for tourists - those who intend to visit the US and return to their home country. The intention of your fiance getting a tourist visa is unclear by your post so I thought I'd clarify that The K-1 fiance visa is slightly faster (but more expensive) than the spousal visa. However, it requires you to marry in the US. You cannot legally marry outside of the US and often 'religious' ceremonies are mistaken for legal ones and K-1s have been denied for that reason. I'd play it safe if it was me. If you want to marry in Columbia, petition for a Cr1 spoual visa. A lot of people want the fastest way - as did we. However, the need to work and travel was important to us as was the cheaper cost of the Cr-1 Compare the options here http://www.visajourn...content/compare And the K-1 guide here http://www.visajourn...content/k1guide Good luck PS married is married, I do not believe you can marry in 2 countires legally.	canadian_wife	Female	Canada	2010-10-28 20:43:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	Can I visit?	admittance and duration of stay is up to the CBP at the time of crossing.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	K 1	First of all, never 'fail to mention' anything. That wouldn't be the best thing in this situation. I don't think that you have to wait a year before you apply, some members may suggest that because you'll have time to re-establish ties to your country in that time.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	start a K1 visa abroad	http://www.visajourn...content/k1guide Sure, I don't see why the USC cannot start the K-1 process while abroad. All the documents will still have to be sent to the US and you'll likely have to interview in France - someone correct me if I am wrong.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	Advice needed before visiting my fiance please!!	It is their job to assume you're going to 'sneank in' until you prove to them you are not. They are to assume EVERYONE as immigrant intent and it is up to you to show that you do not. NEVER lie to a CBP, you are not staying with a friend so do not tell them you are Good luck	canadian_wife	Female	Canada	2010-10-31 15:37:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	Advice needed before visiting my fiance please!!

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	Advice needed before visiting my fiance please!!	Dublin is a pre-clearance port, so therefore you'd go through US immigration and customs in Dublin, not in the US. SO if you are denied entry, your cost would only be from Dublin to home, not from the US to home Make sense? Bring any and all ties you have to your home country, including utility bills, lease or mortgage, proof of sufficient funds in the UK and a copy of your NOAs Good luck	canadian_wife	Female	Canada	2010-10-31 09:03:00
