I hope I am doing this posting correctly- if not please forgive me.

I got NOA 1 and in anticipation and to stay ahead of the game, I want to prepare the Affidavit of Suppport and other documents to send to my finance'. I called the Department of Home Land Security to ask questions about the form and was told that I should be using the I-864 instead of the I-134. Can anyone help because this wonderful website says use the I-134 and I am not so sure I have gotten relaible information.

Second question is that I have other non-taxable income and I want to report that as well. I can clearing document the income and supply verification for the agency in which i recieve it from. How should I do this?

Help!!!

US Embassy and Consulate DiscussionPhone call record in Nigeria

Hello All,
I have been reading the post from members who have had theri interviews in Lagos and all the disappointments for various reasons.

Since when did Nigerians have access to telephone records? The Asian Lady seem to be very particular with conversation and phone records. Do they not know the environment in which they are operating?

For people that have presented phone records during thier interview, please which phone companies did you all use. Because we are becoming afraid this will also come up during our interview. My D calls every day but they phone company he uses (GLO, ZAIN and MTN) all say they do not give phone record except he goes to police station to get letter and pay XYZ amount of money monthly to be on a special service plan with them.

Are prepaid phone customers not supposed to have itemized calls sent on thier bills like it is done in some companies here?

Someone should tell the Asian lady that phone records is not an esential commodity for the common Nigeria.
I think someone needs to let them know the hassels of getting phone records.

This is ridiculous!
The number of refusal is gettign too much.

Hi All:

My husband and I can't contain our happiness when we FINALLY got 2 letters from USCIS today informing us that both petitions, I-130 and I-129F has been APPROVED. kicking.gif

Over the weekend, I already have this strong feeling that we will be receiving our approval anytime soon because both applications has been touched last March 21, Friday. We got another touched today (March 24, Monday) but only for our I-129F so we weren't really expecting anything as of yet but to our surprise, my husband found 2 letters from USCIS sitting on our mailbox which he claimed just a couple of hours ago right after he took the trash out of our place. laughing.gif The letters says both petitions has been sent to NVC.

For sometime we thought that we'll be getting email notifications first before we get the actual letters but anyhow, we're so delighted right now that this has happened. We also thought that it's kinda weird that we obtained our approval on the date of her sister's death anniversary. Might be a sign from God. innocent.gif

Thank you very much everyone for the prayers. I'll keep you posted on the developments of our cases. God Bless and remain positive.

I have something to say about this topic ..... Are you getting mad because you feel you are buying a husband .? are you feeling upset because you are supporting your love ?.... Ok !!!
I would like to say to those that the feel its already a scam... MOVE ON . Why are u still beeing with your love ? OR U cant , huh ? Let me just tell you something ... You have no respect for your love for your man .. because other wise you will not get amd at the whole situation from the begining and you still even seen how he will react once he will have a stabe work and a stable salary ... you are getting mad at a situation you put your self onto it .. and no one forced you to buy a ticket or send money .. SO i would like to say move on because your mariage will not lust .. Move on because it will be always a fight and always putting him down like he is a small ###### walking this earth .. You are buying a husband thats what you think .. . Oh dear that is a very bad way of thinking and u r already just in the begining ... I can tell ya why he dont wanna talk to you as much as before .. because he doesnt need a reminder each time of beeing a small insect needs help from you or beeing like a cat walking around your legs waiting to get food ...

I would like to mention That the right ... Supporting a husband that he doesnt have a job ... It's a sign of a good wife , caring and a loving one .... AMEN

Think about your husband as he is a part of you . Think about supporting him as you putting your mony on your saving account .. because no man will forget what his wife will do for him ... and let me tell you ... you Probably didt spend more than $ 10.000 , and if you gonna put your husband down because of that then i am sorry i wish i can know who is your husband so i can tell him find a way to get what you spent on him and give it back to you and then move on ... we might be from a poor countries .. but our pride is priceless .

My husband's family still hasn't met our son. His father gives him hell over it all the time. I told them that they can just wait until next year when the new baby is old enough to travel so they can meet them both at the same time.

Both parties have to be old enough to marry or have consent for marriage...
Both parties have to be legally free to marry........
You have to have met each other at least ONCE in the last two years......
as far as i know those are the requirements to apply for finance visa........

As for the travelling to the US while a K-1 is pending, make sure you have plenty of evidence. If you're not confident with what you have (and keep in mind that the border control officer can reject you no matter what evidence you have with you) don't travel. Have him come here instead, there will be no problems with that.

Hi if this topic has been covered before im sorry, im having trouble finding anything on this site thats answers my question. so here goes.
i'll start with our story,

i met my fiance on the 24th of august o7 where i work. im a barmaid in a small kent town hotel and he was staying there as a guest after two days of persistence and a sort of kick by my sister he won me over and we spent a lovely sunday togther getting to know each other properly. blush.gif this was the 26th august 07 and i see it as the first day of our relationship.

he was leaving early the next morning to spend a day and nite in london before he flew bk home to the US on tuesday. unfortuantly i could go not with him up to london to spend an extra day with him but he was so keen that he found some way of emailing me when he was in london. after that we spoke on the net every night, well night to me with the 8 hour time difference, on internet messenger and video links over the net and we have done this ever since.

as soon as i could get time off and the money saved to go, i went to visit him in LA. i spent two lovely weeks with him between oct 21st 07 and nov 4th 07. unfortuantly work couldnt let me have much more off crying.gif .

the next time i got to see my man, face to face was the 17th of jan this year when he came over and stayed with me till the 31st jan.
it was on the 26th of jan that he offically proposed blush.gif on our 5 month aniversary. heart.gif
now im saving up to see him next and living of the hours each nite i get to speak to him on the net.


we are currently looking into what we have to do and what options are open to us so not filled yet. in our quest for answers its been suggested to us that due to the nature of our relationship i.e. we've only known and been together a short period of time. we should expect a lot more questions and well the general gist i got was we might get a harder time as they will be more suspissious of our relationship. need the loo whilst waiting


has anyone else filled after being with their so for such a short time? did you have any problems?

Hannah.

My fiance is in morocco, and I am a US citizen. I just spent the month of april there, and we got engaged there. We are confused about what we should do next. We know a little about the fiance visa, but we were thinking of getting married in morocco, then doing another ceremony in the US. But he was telling me it might take a year for him to get here if we get married first. I am so confused, can any one who has been through this give me some guidance? Thank you in advance!


Sounds like he is pretty familiar with the process. Why do you suppose that is? Are you older than him? Don't care myself, it only seems to be a trend in Moroccan male fiances, though it is totally opposite local custom and tradition.

The K-1 process (fiance) offers little in the way of real advantages, maybe none, but it does get the foriegn person here faster, if his goal is to get to the USA in the quickest route, that is it. If his goal is long term, it won't matter and K-3 or CR-1 may be more advantageous in the long run. It will take 9 months for the fiancee visa, or thereabouts, so is he worried about another 3 months? He is marrying you for life, correct? 3 months is a big problem?

In dealing with Morroco it is best to be very thorough, especially when the circumstances go against local customs and traditions, such things are seen as "red flags" that cause a question of the reasons for the relationship. Read the guides carefully and check the regional forums for people with experience in exactly your type of situation

I am going to say something probably controversial but with good intentions. If you are older than him, especially if you are of an age where you are not likely to have children with him, if you have religious differences, and he knows a lot about this process and he is in a big hurry to get to the USA, and not so big a hurry to marry you, you better be very careful of what you are doing, for your own sake. Morroco is considered a high fraud country and they don't choose those by throwing darts at the map. Please. If I am out of line, so be it. I said nothing to hurt the process and hope gave some good advice.

Good luck



I thank you very much for your advice. First I would like to say, we are both in our 20,s, and looking forward to being married and having children. We don't care much about him coming to the US as much as we want to be together. That is the main point. We would love to get married in morocco, but I am the one not wanting to wait the year to be with him. Being apart is very very hard. We talk everyday, but we just want to be together, above all else. I appreciate your response!!

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresNew to this
QUOTE (tany1157 @ May 17 2009, 10:56 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
My fiance is in morocco, and I am a US citizen. I just spent the month of april there, and we got engaged there. We are confused about what we should do next. We know a little about the fiance visa, but we were thinking of getting married in morocco, then doing another ceremony in the US. But he was telling me it might take a year for him to get here if we get married first. I am so confused, can any one who has been through this give me some guidance? Thank you in advance!

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresHow much longer for a K-1 reply

We submitted the K-1 visa application to the California center and they acknowledged receipt of it on Oct 8th 2009,
We are still waiting for any word on it. I have flown back to USA just so I would be here when we got it but it still has not come.
Also what happens if and when I do get something from them, what do we do with it. We have all doc's that we should need but just need physical and interview. We are ready but nothing is coming out from them.
Any info or help would be great.
