US Embassy and Consulate Discussion	ANYONE INTERVIEWING IN MADRID FOR THE K1 VISA?	We will be interviewing in Madrid soon, how did yours go??   Ours went very well. It was back in 2009.  It was a very easy process back then.  My husband is now a U.S. Resident without conditions and is now studying to become a U.S. citizen.  Wishing you lots of luck on your interview.  The immigration officers in Madrid are very nice and the interview went by really fast.  Just take all your stuff in order and you'll be ok.	helumu1	Female	Spain	2013-10-28 20:52:00

Our I-129F has been APPROVED!!!! When I opened my email on 01/10/09 and saw that it had been approved I cried. I couldn't believe it. Now what's driving me nuts is that I haven't received the NOA #2 hardcopy by mail yet. We're hoping that my fiance's interview is soon and hope that there won't be any problems. He's a native of colombia and is currently residing in Spain. So we requested an interview in Madrid instead of his native country, hoping that won't cause problems. But, we are anxiously awaiting the moment that my fiance can enter the US and get married. By the way I have 2 boys that are also very excited about all of this. To everyone who is still waiting, don't lose hope your moment is coming before you know it. It's seems like the california service center approved a lot of cases in January 09. Good month. Pray for us everyone, I'll be praying for all of you. Here is our timeline: We applied through the California Service Center. 11/07/08: Mailed I-129 F package 11/10/08: INS received package and cashed check 11/13/08: Received NOA #1 01/09/09: I-129F approved through email notification Thanks to Everyone who have posted and answered questions they helped me out a lot too. Wow Congratulations!!! Was your case expedited? If not, wow that was quick! Congratulations and best of luck! Thanks!!! No our case was not expedited. I couldn't believe how fast we got the approval. Hopefully, we don't have to wait too long for the next step.	helumu1	Female	Spain	2009-01-16 07:02:00

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	INTERVIEW NEXT WEEK--STRESSING!!!	Hi Everyone!!!! Well my fiances interview is next week and of course I had to find something to stress about. Here it goes. My fiance is Colombian and he'll be interviewing in Madrid (since he's living in Spain). On form DS-157 question 14, where it asks if he has any specialized training or skills with firearms, explosives, etc..... and on question 15, if he's performed military service, he answered yes to both. Being from Colombia all men at the age of 18 have to perform obligatory military service. Their he received responsible firearm training with a rifle. Will this cause a problem with his interview??? Has anyone who comes from a country where military service is obligatory have any problems with the interview?? Your help or words that can help me calm down would really help. I do the stressing for my fiance and myself. Thanks in advance and Lots of luck to all of you who will be interviewing soon, your in my prayers...	helumu1	Female	Spain	2009-02-25 06:23:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	FIANCE PASSED THE INTERVIEW	Hello Everyone!!! We wanted to share our good news with everyone. My fiance passed the interview. We have the visa in our hands. His interview was on March 4th, was approved pending medical results. Due to an illness he had in the past it was affecting the medical results. After further testing and traveling to Madrid 2 times, 2 weeks later we have the visa in our hands. THANKS TO GOD AND THE HOLY VIRGIN MARY!!!! The US Embassy in Madrid is awesome and very friendly. Everyone is in my prayers!!!! Thanks for all your support and words of encouragement.	helumu1	Female	Spain	2009-03-23 03:31:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	Immigrant fiance in Spain/remain or return to Peru?	My fiance is Colombian and we went through the fiance visa process in Spain. He was living and working legally in Barcelona. The process was easy. The people at the US Consulate in Madrid are Awesome!!! As for your fiance obtaining police certificates from Peru, he should be able to obtain them through the Peruvian Embassy in Spain. He should get that ASAP as for the Colombian Embassy in Spain takes 2 months to get them. As for getting documents translated from Spanish to English it is not necessary in Spain. Although it will be the US. My fiances case was approved in a total of 4 months from time of filing to the day when we received his visa. My fiance left Spain on May 5th to visit family in Colombia before coming to the US. He will arriving in the US on June 3rd. I wish you guys the best of luck. If you have any more questions in regards to the Embassy in Madrid just let me know. I'll be more than happy to help you guys out.	helumu1	Female	Spain	2009-05-06 22:29:00
