K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresGetting married before fiance visa approved
A K-1 is for fiance(e), ie, both of you need to be free to marry. Once you marry, you are spouses and the K-1 visa is null and void. If you get married you would have to start all over with a K-3 or CR-1/IR-1.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresSome help
QUOTE (JC&GP @ Nov 21 2007, 10:03 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
Thank you for all the replys but let me clarify something.
In the event i get divorce on July of 2008 and assuming i have in my hands all the divorce documents and I became a US Citizen, and i file a Fiance visa the Time i travel to see her while I was married Counts? or only Counts after I'm a fully divorced?

I'm asking this because i read in some part , that before file for the Fiance visa, i must have visited Her at least 2 times or something like that, probably I'm wrong.
Please help

PS: Also I already pass the Citizenship exam and I'm waiting for the Oath Ceremony.


The requirement is that you have met at least once within the last 2 years. It does not matter how long you have been in a relationship.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresWhat's the best time to call NVC?
FYI: when you call you want to talk to someone (603-334-0700, 1, 5). If you follow the automated system you will not get anything because K1's are not entered into the automated system.

Good luck!!!

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Proceduresstill waiting
Sorry you are feeling this way. It is frustrating that all we can do is wait.

Have you checked out the VSC thread? There are still some people from May and a lot from June that are waiting on their NOA2. A few lucky July filers have gotten approved though.

Hang in there.

I think i wrote about 3- 4 paragraphs. Stick to details and leave out all of the lovely dovey stuff.
Give dates and places.


My friend who has successfully completed the process said that they need to be convinced of your love and that the letter should definitely have the lovey dovey stuff. Does anyone else have any comments on this?



Names, places, dates and the next time I was going to see him. That is all I included, no lovey dovey stuff, and we were approved.

When you get to the consulate interview, that is where you have to prove that you have a bona fide relationship.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresContacting Ghana Embassy
Hey Erika smile.gif

You can try e-mailing them but it takes a couple of weeks to get back to you. Try consulateaccra@state.gov (for the consular section) and acsaccra@state.gov (for USC services). Make sure to include your case number and info about you and your fiance. I put something like "Approved K1 Petition" or something like that in the subject.

I would honestly try calling. It is expensive but worth it to find out if they have your petition. I think I said this before but they did not send the letter to my fiance until AFTER I called them (even though they told me it was sent 3 weeks earlier wacko.gif ). You can only call them between 3pm and 4pm Ghana time.

FYI: I did a quick check on the DHL website and it looks like your petition left NVC on 11/20 and was signed for in Accra on 11/26.

I would suggest having your fiance apply for one ASAP. It is not needed when filing the petittion but the proces may be delayed if it is needed for the medical and police certificate.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresSafe For American Fiance to Travel Longterm to Fiance's Country??
QUOTE (Luckyswife2b @ Dec 3 2007, 11:49 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
Still quite stressed about this........... unsure.gif

I have heard on here that it helps extraordinarilly to have the USC fiance there during the interview (not to mention I am sure it doesn't hurt the SO for emotional support!) wink.gif

But I am worrying that at the interview they may ask him "How many times has your fiance visited you here in ghana?" and I have only come one time..... :/

Then again, I have to work in order to prove I can financially support him (even though I have a co-sponsor who is very financially well off... my father!???)..... so how can I work FT and visit him for interview??? Unless I can get a 2 week paid vacation from the job I DONT YET HAVE!!!!! blush.gif

AUGH.... SO FRUSTRATING!!! Anyone have any MORE advice for this discussion?

I am really stressing out!!!

Thanks!!!

<3 Stephanie and Lucky


While it probably helps to have the USC at the interview, not everyone does that and people are still approved. The proof of having a relationship is not only in the number of visits but also communication. Besides our first meeting, I have been back to see my fiance once. We also talk and text everyday, send each other snail mail, I have pictures that were taken when he proposed to me in front of his friends, pictures of him with my cousin, my sisters and friend and our own pictures.

I think that the COs would not begrudge you having only visited once if you have other kinds of proof to back up your relationship.

Just facts.

In our case it was 5 lines. Where we met, who introduced us, the date and how much time we spent together.

No need to get all sentimental and lovey-dovey wink.gif

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresNeed help with K1 Visa: Don't have a photo with Fiancee.. any suggestions?
All I had were the boarding passes from my trip and my itinerary for when I met my fiance. We had no pictures. In fact, the only pictures I submitted were the passport photos.

All I included was the flight info and a couple of phone bills showing our continuous communication and we had no problems.

Good luck good.gif

You will need the approval notice for AOS ... NVC nor London should need it...



Sorry I don't understand what you mean.


When you apply for adjustment of status upon entry to the US on the K1 you need to send a copy of the approval notice with your application to USCIS.

At this point, you do not need it for the interview or for NVC.
