K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresConsulate: do they already know they'll approve or not?
There is no way they could make a call on a couple of limited questions asked at the "interview " so yes.

It would be the consulate in Guangzhou, China.

It would be worth checking to see what this Consulates view of I 134 co sponsors are.

I tend to be suspicious, been on this board too long.

I think it most likely that she was scammed by the nursing home/lawyer. Would not be the first time.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresWhat color pen to sign on the forms?

Hi co-VJers,

This maybe a silly question but what color pen should I use to sign on DS 230 and DS 156? Blue or black? I"m asking because for my medical checkup for the visa I had to use a black pen only.

Are consular officers picky about pen colors in the DS forms too?

Thanks!


Blue is better when sending the original because they can see it is not a copy by the color of the pen. However if your sending a copy it will show up as black anyway.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresWhat the US considers "having met"

Photos are secondary evidence. Passport stamps and boarding passes are primary evidence you were in her country within the past two years. That meets the USCIS standard for petition approval. Demonstrating to a consular officer you have a bona fide ongoing relationship is a different matter, but I don't see any reason not to go ahead and file the petition. If at all possible, I would arrange another in person visit between now and the visa interview though.

Don't bother with affidavits. Being in the same country is enough to get the petition approved. Proving you met briefly does nothing in the way of demonstrating an ongoing relationship. Treat them as separate issues.


I agree, keep it simple.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresAffidavit of support Question
Tipped employees have taxes for their credit card income taken out automatically and are required to declare their cash tips.

The wage slips we issue, and I would have thought it is standard will show separate lines for wages, cc tips, then cash tips in for tax purposes and finally cash tips out for payment purposes.

L1 is dual intent.

So if you want to marry in the US that might be the best bet.

Trouble with the K1 route is that it could be 90 days or more before you get work authorisation.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresK-1 denied - told could appeal

I was in the country illegally. They had said they would send me summons to appear before the deportation judge and before I received the summons I moved.


That makes much more sense.

The non appearance is a 5 year non waiverable ban.

This is really something to discuss with your immigration lawyer.

Whilst I am pretty awesome, I do not think that was the reason.

I had plenty of photo's with me, I was watching others going through that day and it seemed I was not alone.

I am sure it varies significantly by Consulate, like so many things.

I looked at the affidavit form, they ask the name and address of the employer, can I put my french employer?
And then convert into $ from € the income questions?


Enter what your employer will be paying you in dollars when you move to the US.

It probably will not be a direct conversion of your French salary.

Its called FAMILY! Where I come from, you protect your family! Not hard to understand.

Would you protect your family?

Would you post on a website that your immediate or significant others family were in the country illegally?

Regardless if someone is trying to fix it, the tables could turn in a big way.

I would not, because mine are not.

Bu there are plenty of other sites that are more focussed on this issue and they have no problem. The obvious one is www.immigrate2us.net, and I have seen Univision mentioned.

I think you are making a fuss about nothing, it is no biggie.

As long as he does not get caught and departs before 18 plus 180 days he is otherwise good to go.

Bearing in mind his age who do you think the Consulate will suppose he has been living with.

If they really wanted to track down people missing a few documents they would not have to go to the extreme lengths of checking this sort of paperwork. A trip to the local Home Depot would do it.
