Good luck OP it's a tough spot for you!

At least you can still visit him and during the wait time ull be waiting for ur visa aswell as ur husbands release. So might as well wait on both at the same time.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresI require a sponsor-

Being in school/university might have counted as a valid reson for not making enough but that there's be a future income to gain. HOwever, since you're not in school now and you're not making enough, you have two options as of right now;
1 - you have your dad be the co-sponsor and hope for the best.
2 - you find a second job to stay above the minimum income.

I'd go for a second job and have proof of that income at time of interview. You have quite a few months to secure the extra income needed.
After your fiancee arrives(and you go back to school) you can use your dad as a joint sponsor.


Thank you. Looks like acquiring a 2nd job would be the best course of action. I shouldn't risk anything especially after seeing how many people were denied just for not meeting financial requirements

Yes, try and see.

If else fails on K1, you can go for CR1. That category accepts joint sponsors. You'll have to get married in the Philippines though.



Yah for sure. Hopefully not the latter.

My moms pinay as well and I'm half.. If that will help factor into my co-sponsor approval. Sort for double post. Can't edit on mobile

Edit: I'm not in college right now anymore but I plan on going back and finishing once we're together again.

Hi! there's no way ill be making a gross of 18k a year so I need a co-sponsor. My dad talked to a congressman and he said he'll be able to co-sponsor, but I see from alot of people that Philippines doesn't accept k1 co-sponsors.. I'm in a bind here. I currently make roughly gross 16k+ a year. I heard to have a parent cosponsor is good but I'm also planning to finish college and I'm only 18years old. Also my dad can support up to 7 so that's fine.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresBringing fiancée's kids in the future

It can be that she was married before or not. I was in the same situation with her. My 2 kids uses my x' last name but we were never married legally that is why i have no issues bringing my 2 kids here. My USC husband filed I-130 for my kids coz we planned it that we will get my kids once i am settled here.

Just make sure she was not married before and to make sure get a CENOMAR first before doing anything else. Good luck!



you've cleared all my worries, thank you!

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresBringing fiancée's kids in the future
Ok thank you. So they won't need the fixed birth certificate until their interview and when they get their passports. Until then I'm definitely sure my fiancée was never married so I won't worry about the cenomar outcome
CRAKZORMalePhilippines2013-04-03 13:24:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresBringing fiancée's kids in the future

You have two options- the kids can come on a follow-to-join K2 within a year of the K1. This is easiest and cheapest. Or, assuming they are under 18, you,as the USC step father, can petition for them via the I-130 and get them here that way. If she as a greencard holder petitions, it takes much longer.

follow to join sounds like the best option. Do they come to the interview with my fiancée?

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresBringing fiancée's kids in the future
Hi my fiancée has 2 kids she's living with her parents and fam. We want to bring her kids later after we settle down because her son's birth certificate shows that she is married with the baby daddy but she never married also the son has his dads last name , but her daughter , the younger, has hers moms last name and doesn't say they were married. They were never married and this was an error on whoever issued the birth certificate. Now I'm hearing ill need to come up with 2 grand to change the birthcetificate. They're names are on the i129f and they won't be coming with us until later. Will they need to come to the interview?

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresCalled uscis
So on my 2nd call to uscis; i asked about VSC processing times. He told me 6-9 months, and about the workload of i-129f's. So why have 5 months be on the site if in actuality it's nowhere near that? Ill service request at 5 months and we'll see where that gets me. Im just experiencing one of those days where i really wish i had my love in arms, and to those still waiting, ill be there soon, and ill be killing myself wondering why i didnt take the i-130 route. :bonk:

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresPaid for Visa processing, can access form DS 260.

DS 230 can be found on VJ under forms. If DS 260 is needed and you can not find it, call USCIS. If you call USCIS national calling center, I suggest you do this. Call the number and just wait on phone! DO NOT pick any of the options!!!!! just keep waiting!!! eventually someone - A REAL PERSON will answer!


Just say "agent" at main menu

Hi I worked at a warehouse as a record specialist under a temp agency for 5 months. I was let go yesterday because they were cutting down and I have a new job starting Tuesday under the same agency and same pay $10/hr. I didn't work much last year and I only got $100 from taxes because I was still schooling.. Am I fine..? I have my dad who will co-sponsor me if I need it and he supports up to 8 according to poverty guidelines.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresFiancee's 1st child different surname

Hi, my fiancee's 1st child has the last name of the father, but never married. On the initial i-129f i put the mother's last name in place of the father's because we were going to resolve it, but now interview is coming close and we havent and arent going to. On the DS forms I had put the child's real surname of the father... So now with conflicting info surname of 1st child on i129 and ds forms, would that cause a problem? interview date is on sept 10th
