K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	just curious what the purpose of copying the package is	If you get an RFE you can see exactly what was sent so you can fix it before the hardcopy letter arrives If the beneficiary travels it is good to bring a copy to show that it has been filed Good luck	canadian_wife	Female	Canada	2012-07-29 13:47:00

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	Can you enter using Visa Waiver even when you have your K-1 issued?	The only real way to know for sure is for her to board a flight and attempt to cross using her VWP instead of her K-1. If refused...then what? Will she chose to return to Korea or will she choose to enter on her K-1, thus ruining your trip to Canada Play this safe, postpone your trip to Canada Good luck	canadian_wife	Female	Canada	2012-05-14 17:26:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	Worst Case Scenario	To answer your question, if you are denied you must address the issues and reasons of the denial before you move forward. Sending another peition or marrying does not erase the reasons for the denial. They probably won't outright deny you for financials, they will ask you to provide more information and delay your case Good luck	canadian_wife	Female	Canada	2012-08-10 04:10:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	I need advice.	I agree with Darnell If she manages to get a visitors visa, how will she demonstrate she can pay for the treatment? Plan on visiting her - not her coming to the US Good luck	canadian_wife	Female	Canada	2012-08-11 13:59:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	Need Help with my Marital Status	First thing you need to do is tell your fiance, because with the documents you have, he'll find out anyway 2nd, you probably need to submit the death certificate AND the annullment papers. You need to change that on the petition as well, you must NEVER lie on anything on the papers Good luck	canadian_wife	Female	Canada	2012-08-14 04:16:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	what should I expect ???!!	How long ago was it? how much drugs was it and what type of drugs? Guns and drugs are big no nos in US immigration. Marijuana is weighted differently than, say, heroine or cocaine. Good luck	canadian_wife	Female	Canada	2012-08-18 06:31:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	After the interview, do they take your passport to process the visa?	When you post here, it does also post in the Canada Portal as well, from what I've seen when I post. No, it does not OP - it SHOULD take a few days, but it may not. Vancouver could be backlogged or, like a case in Montreal, the beneficiary had to go back and do the fingerprints again. Now, you want your passport back, with the visa inside, then go for a visit, then come back to Canada, THEN enter using your K-1? If this is the case, I'd rethink your plan. It will be up to the CBP if you are permitted to enter before activating your K1, if not, then you will not be permitted to enter as a tourist Good luck	canadian_wife	Female	Canada	2012-08-19 07:49:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	Need help with K1	I have a job, finances are fine. What I wanted was advice for proof of relationship. Thanks anyways. The only 2 consulates that deal with these sorts of visas are Vancouver and Montreal for K visas and ONLY montreal for spousal visas. So if you were planning on getting married, you would HAVE to go Montreal. And montreal is strict about domicile so if you got married, you'd probably have to separate. You've been living in Canada for 3 years, i wouldn't lie about that. You mention a visa, do you have a visa? Is your passport stamped? Do you have pictures? Good luck	canadian_wife	Female	Canada	2012-08-21 04:06:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	Need help with K1	How long have you been in Canada? What province are you in? My husband got all our documents to get married, all he needed was a passport Regardless, file for the K-1. Separation is to be expected. If you are 'very much in love' a few weeks apart won't matter too much will it? You need to list all the information correctly, if you are living in Canada, you need to list that. Failure to do so could complicate your case You do not have sufficient proof of domicile for Montreal - please visit the pinned topic in the Canada forum. This is a major issue for Canadians Good luck	canadian_wife	Female	Canada	2012-08-20 18:08:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	Can you switch from K-1 to IR/CR-1 and not lose time?	Just a quick question, and I haven't seen this addressed in recent weeks. That's because the policy hasn't changed. no you would start from the begining, including new wait times and a new fee Good luck	canadian_wife	Female	Canada	2012-09-03 09:27:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	K-1 visa problems	Do you think that it would be advisable to hire an immigration attorney in my home state or hire one in the philippines? By chance would you know how long does it take on average in order to an annulment? Consult Laurel Scott. She offers free chats on Wednesdays. I'd hire qualifed US immigration attorney, who specializes in inadmissability - like Laurel This process will not be easy for cheap for you. FYI Good luck	canadian_wife	Female	Canada	2012-09-09 16:18:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	K-1 visa problems	She was fingerprinted to get her first visa. She'll be fingerprinted again and then the jig is up. They'll know They'll know she got a fake CENOMAR and they may find her guilty of misrepresentation for immigration purposes. Which is a lifetime ban from the US. Before they even ask her a question - the deal is done So I'm not sure why you say you dont' know what to do. I'd pull the peititon and refile, with the help of a qualified immigration attorney Good luck	canadian_wife	Female	Canada	2012-09-09 15:42:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	Best option to get married and keep travelling	http://www.visajourn...content/compare See the link First things first, drop the K3 from your vocabulary. It's been obsolete for the past 2 years. Although technically on the USCIS books, NVC will close it. Secondly, for your situation, having him return to France after the marriage, a Cr-1 spousal visa is for you. Perfectly legal to come to the US, marry, then leave Good luck	canadian_wife	Female	Canada	2012-09-10 04:12:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	K1 VISA and Work Authorization	K-1 is a visa, it is void the second he enters the US as it is a single entry visa It is not a work visa, it is not work authorized He cannot legally work in the US, and a company will not pay him (see the restructions on the I-9) until he has a work authorization document OR a green card Good luck	canadian_wife	Female	Canada	2012-09-22 13:47:00

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	Port of Entry and Connecting Flights	It will be opened at the first US airport his flight touches down on. So depending on your flight schedule, it will be opened BEFORE he reaches Raleigh. Good luck	canadian_wife	Female	Canada	2012-10-11 09:34:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	cousin marriage	i send the first one in dececmber 2009 and now reapplied in march 2012 in different state Since immigration is federal, does it matter what the state he lives in recognizes in terms of marriage? Just question as I am curious. You can move to a state that recognizes same-sex marriage, doesn't mean USCIS will approve the petition. Anyway, OP - how closely are you two cousins? 1st? or like 6th twice removed? Good luck	canadian_wife	Female	Canada	2012-06-09 06:22:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	We are living together, reapplying for K1	Your chances will depend on why you were denied and what has happened in the relationship since the denial Until then, no one can give you solid advice Good luck	canadian_wife	Female	Canada	2012-10-10 10:01:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	I find myself in AP, as a UK born, White male.	Being from the UK it is unlikely that you will be in AP for 5 years. It may be that you have a similar name or same name as someone and they are doing additional background checks to verify. AP, although not totally common, does happen in the US, have you posted this in the regional forum? Good luck	canadian_wife	Female	Canada	2012-10-20 06:22:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	K1 Visa Interview Montréal Question	Since this is a consulate specific question, why don't you post this in the Canada forum? We did the (in my opinion) superior CR-1 visa so I can't help you Good luck	canadian_wife	Female	Canada	2012-11-03 15:08:00

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	Marriage question..	You cannot marry in the UK. Part of the requirements of the K-1 is that you marry in the US. If you marry in the UK you cannot enter on a fiance visa because it is for fiance's good luck	canadian_wife	Female	Canada	2012-11-09 17:23:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	INQUIRY K1	If i am denied my right to have a visa and marry my fiance, is there a law that the consulate will have broken? and if possible is it ok to take them to courts of laws in the USA and compensate for the stress and the long wait they have placed on our happiness? You do not have a right to a visa. No one is stopping you from marrying your fiance. The consulate will have broken no laws if you are denied. No, you cannot take them to court for decisions YOU made. If you didn't want to wait long, then your fiance should move to your country. USCIS is not concerned about YOUR happiness. Not to sound cruel, but the US government doesn't owe you anything and you have no right to anything regarding immigration good luck	canadian_wife	Female	Canada	2012-11-12 05:17:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	Visiting while K1 is pending	Does your fiance already have the tourist visa? Yes she can visit, admittance and duration of stay is never a guarentee good luck	canadian_wife	Female	Canada	2012-11-14 05:19:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	how long should be a relatishonship before k1	Will it count? USCIS does not have a minimum for knowing each other before you file. You are required to have met in person in the last 2 years, not know each other for 2 years. Do you understand the difference? Good luck	canadian_wife	Female	Canada	2012-11-15 05:27:00

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	Bringing my 16 year old fiancée	From your original post, I am pretty sure they are also not going to over look the aspect that you have not met in the past 2 years, that is a requirement for filing the I129F good luck Edited by canadian_wife, 18 November 2012 - 07:01 AM.	canadian_wife	Female	Canada	2012-11-18 07:00:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	Visiting???	Filing the I129F, when worded correctly, is actually ties to Canada so you should absolutly mention it. As in "We've filed the I129F fiance visa packet and I plan to return to canada for my immigration medical and interview" Yes, bring any ties you can, visiting is a privledge, not a right, so anytime you can make your crossing easier, you should. You want to plan for everything and hope you don't need any of it. The letter from your employer is also a great tie I once crossed and was asked to produce ties to Canada. I had nothing prepared but managed to find a dr. apt card in my wallet. I said "well, I have a Dr. apt in 2 weeks" the BP agent asked how that was a tie to Canada, I said it was socialized medicine, why would i go to the US pay for it if I can get it done for free. He laughed and admitted me without issue good luck	canadian_wife	Female	Canada	2012-11-21 08:37:00

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	Considering Grad School during K-1 visa process	I'm sorry, maybe I am confused, why is it an issue for you to attend graduate school or move to PR? You are a US citizen, why shouldn't your fiance mention it? The issue will be financials, if you cannot prove you make above the requirements then you'll need a cosponsor. Secondly, the second adjustment of status is not an adjustement of status. It is a removal of conditions and read up on that process Could you provide me with more details about how you believe you the USC moving to PR to attend graduate school (aside from $$$) will be an issue? good luck	canadian_wife	Female	Canada	2012-11-24 15:15:00
