K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresWhat does it take to be touched around here!?!!?
Your time is almost here :) I didn't get any touches before my NOA2 today, it was out of the blue... A lot of people seem not to get touched :)

My first round of touches was possibly to do with check cashing and other administrative stuff :)

December filers seem to be flying right now. Maybe next week? :)

My NOA-1 was on Dec. 20. Last touch Dec. 25.

No touches, no emails, no NOA-2 since!!!! :crying:

Just called USCIS and talked to a real person: “We are processing applications from August. Please wait 3-4 months”. Yeaaa, tell that to people from Vermont. :thumbs:

Is it to late to move to Vermont?

Sorry for waste of bandwidth. :wacko:

Congratulation to all NOA-2 recipients. Good luck to the rest of us. :dance:

Back to refreshing my screen.

I press it and absolutely nothing happens :)

Maybe it is supposed to reset your selection? Say if you have 4 cases checked, you press reset and they go unchecked? May be useful for a representative with multiple cases for multiple clients?

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresSunday touch ?????
Not sure about Sunday touches (mine was tocuhed today too) but lotsa touches at the beginning is usually down to internal processing, such as the check cashing, moving it to the right place etc etc :)

I am sure it will be super speedy at VSC though :)
tonyeckMaleUnited Kingdom2007-03-11 17:31:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresRFE???
Sorry to hear that :( But don't worry to much, you will get a letter documenting exactly what they need and Iam sure you can supply it. It may be something small like missing a signature or something.

Keep your head up and you will get your approval very soon
tonyeckMaleUnited Kingdom2007-03-06 11:51:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresUg... is this really going to take 7 months??
Here is some more realistic times:

http://www.visajourney.com/timeline/

You can probably gage a better idea from there

At the end of the day, it all depends on where you are filing. If you file at Vermont you can have approval in 30 days or less, file at Nebraska, Texas or California (all get forwarded to Cal anyway) it can take 90 days give or take (all assuming no mistakes). Then you have to allow time to fill out further forms before an interview which can take around 2-5 months depending on embasseys (not sure about the Canadian one though...)

Ahead of time? Make sure you have your sponsor has his 'sponsor' stuff ready, tax forms, other supporting evidence. Make sure you have your police certificate in time (also making sure it doesn't go out of date...)

Check out the guides

Good luck

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresPhotos as proof of relationship
I wouldn't send a CD....

I printed pictures off at our local drug store and wrote the date, location (to support primary evidence such as plane tickets) and the names on the people in the shot (which were mostly me and my fiancé and some with family)

There are some online services that date stamp photographs I believe, but its not totally neccessary.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures2 year restriction
If you are on the 2 year restriction as far as I am aware, you cannot apply for a K1. So I believe you will have to wait till nov 07 :( Sorry

But I may be wrong!

Welcome aboard...

I think you'll find yourself welcome here - ok, perhaps hit with a ton of questions, but welcome nonetheless.. We're all here for pretty much the same reason(s) - helping each other out through the Visa Journey and creating a place to help cope with being apart from our loved ones.


Well said :)

Thanks for answering my question earlier :)

One more though :) What kind of hours do the service centers run? With so many applications I can imagine working a long 9am to 6pm day....

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresFinancial questions for K-1 Visa
  1. First, I want to congratulate couples got approved for K-1 Visa and say "Good Luck" to those who are still in the process. 
  2. I just sent in my K-1 Package to USCIS in Texas and they received it on 7/2/2013 by Fedex. I haven't heard anything since then however that is not a problem. I think I have to wait a few more days for my NOA1.
  3. I didn't send in the form I-134, Affidavit of Support. Should I have included this form in the K-1 package? Or is this something that I can submit later? Please let me know.
  4. I make around 90K a year however I never keep my money in checkings or savings but I like to spend most of the money. Most of the time, I look at my bank account, it usually shows up around 1K. So if I send in my bank statements for last 3 months, which only show up around 1K, will this pose any threats to my application? I am sure I make way more than 125% Federal Poverty Guidelines. Please let me know.

Just checked the case number onlien again and it says it has been denied access due to too many inquiries?! I have barely checked it at today (at most around 5 or 6 times in the course of the day....) Maybe my Finacee has been checking too

Ah well, at least it will stop me checking until tomorrow :)
