K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresAnyone else placed in Administrative Processing-if so how long did it take?

Hello,

I have same situation but they never gave me 221g and even they did not tell me I am going through AP. now is 6 weeks I had my interview and when I call DOS, they say you are in AP!!!!



actually you aren't in the same situation, this original poster won the DV green card lottery. They also had other issues with their application that are nothing like yours.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresAnyone else placed in Administrative Processing-if so how long did it take?

we were in AP for 8 months and were never told why and I dont know of anyone who was told specifically why..... The good sign is that they kept the passport and said it would only be a short time... when it comes to AP all that can really be done is inquire as to the case status.. it can be done through the congressional reps or through an email to the consulate... both take a little time for a response...


I have never seen a K-1 visa in canada get an AP. I have seen a few CR/IR-1s get AP but that was because of issues that were told at the interview. Hence my saying that this is best posted in the canada forum.

Better to be posted in the canada regional section.

If you were put in AP they generally tell you as to why.

Seriously?

 

 

Yes seriously, the US consul in Montreal QC has been on, uses and knows about VJ. Its quite funny!

 

And yep to the facebook thing! There have been quite a few posts where the consul has showed people printouts ( that were not included in the petition/evidence ) or the actual FB page belonging to the petitioner or beneficiary. And asked questions about things showing on the page.

This might sound strange but do they google you at all for background information?

 

Lets say the U.S. resident has an IMDB page or a Wikipedia page. Does anyone know if they bother with these things?

 

I did search for a topic like this but could not find one....

Lots of Consuls use facebook to look you up.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresI-134 Affidavit of Support- Obligations of Co Signer??
Its a government contract it has nothing to do with paying you or your fiance. It has to do with your dad paying back the government if your fiance was to use means tested benefits which he is not allowed to do.

If he is signing the I-134 he will likely be signing the I-864 as well for you when the AOS happens yes? That one binds him till your fiance becomes a USC or dies or finishes 40 work quarters.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresUSCIS Processing Time Information for our Texas Service Center

I filed a K1 Visa last November and received my NOA1 on 11/07/11. I was looking at the processing time on the USCIS website for the Texas Service Center and I am confused. I am curious to about the processing time frame dated; 10/20/2010. I don't get it, what does that date mean? Here's the; link https://egov.uscis.g...TimesDisplay.do
I would greatly appreciate if someone could explain to me. It might be simple but I'm just not seeing it.


Texas service center DOES NOT PROCESS K-1 PETITIONS.

ONLY Vermont and California service centers process K-1 petitions.

You wont need DNA to prove its your baby for your visa. But you will likely need a CRBA and apply for the babys US passport if the father is the US citizen. http://honduras.usem...repbirthab.html


Totally did not see the US petitioner part in the OP! so forget the CRBA, thought you were in honduras!

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresDoes a Medical Exam expire?

Thank you i wasnt sure wether or not i could just ip and go or if i needed somethin required from a packet. I live in winnipeg. What vaccinations and police certs do I need?

 

You  need a Canadian Police certificate from your local RCMP.

 

The doctors are in Vancouver, Montreal or Toronto.

 

Here is the list of vaccinations required  http://www.panelphys...munizations.htm

 

You  need your vaccination history before you go for your medical

 

good luck


canadian_wifeFemaleCanada2013-06-03 08:59:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresDoes a Medical Exam expire?

Most panel physicians won't see you in Canada until you have your packet 3.  The consulate will only accept them if it is less than 6 months (I believe) old.

 

There are only a few physicians you can go to, where in Canada do you live?

 

If you don't wish to 'waste time' why not get your vaccinations ready?  Inquire about your police certificate (which the consulate will accept for a year)

 

Good luck

Thanks for the fast reply. I was thinking that I should just update and make a note of it. I hope they are understanding of an honest mistake. 

 

I made multiple mistakes on my G325 and that what was the advice we were given on VJ.  It was great advice and a non-issue at the interview

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresCan a I-134 be rejected at the K-1 visa interview if completed too early?

You won't be dealing with USCIS so their policy is irrelevant here, in fact, I'm not even sure they have one on the I134.  You'll be dealing with the consulate.

 

Although each consulate is different and they appear to cut a wide swath, we went with the 6 month rule.  It seems documents become out of date, according to the consulate, at 6 months...the police certificate, the medical, you have 6 months to use the visa. etc. 

 

good luck

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresCan a I-134 be rejected at the K-1 visa interview if completed too early?

my husband during our interview was asked for proof of tax transcripts for that year (we interviewed in May and they wanted to see that he filed on time in April) as well as updated employment letter and pay stubs.  None of these things are 'required' but can be asked for.  If we were not prepared it would have delayed our case.

 

You can put it together early, but no guarantee that they won't want updated info by the time of the interview.  Why risk it?

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresWarrants?

Just to clarify I didn't say we were going to try to circumvent the warrants or anything. In fact before we even begin the application process we're going to make sure she goes down to the police station and turns herself in with a friend who has cash to bail her out. This has been something that has been looming over her head for years and I agree that it should be taken care of. I was just curious if these warrants were going to be something that was going to end up keeping us apart. In my above post I was just asking if I had read the law right in that since she was under 18 her mistakes won't be held against her.

 

I did not mean to give you guys the impression that we were going to try to do something underhanded like have her try to just sneak on over with warrants. I'm sure everyone that has gone through this process knows how nerve wracking it can be going over all of the requirements and wondering "will this make us ineligible?"

 

Thank you all for the peace of mind and I wish everyone luck in their respective visa endeavours, this is truly a great website.

 

Obviously, make sure each arrest is correctly documented on the forms, does she have the court records that will be necessary?

 

good luck

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresA question about time limits and penalties on a K-1

Typically it is 6 months from the visa issuance.  There are exceptions, typically when a medical may expire

 

Yes, the delay is dependent on how busy the consulate is, it is not immediate and will cause significant delays.

 

If the beneficiary leaves within 90 days, there aren't any consequences, typically it will be more difficult if the beneficiary wants to return as a tourist.

 

Good luck

You were only married once.  If that 1st marriage took place in the US then list that as the US recognizes all marriages (that is to say if we were married in Canada, we are married in the US, no need to get remarried once down here)

 

If you are not sure (and are you sure your ex doesn't know your marriage date?) then list it as "July 1999"
