just to let everyone know i got the approved letter last week in the mail, Today i called NVC processing center to see if they got it and was told they mail it to the embassy in colombia on fri of last week. So i called the embassy and someone answer the phone and told me to call back between 2-4pm. I called later and got through to a person with no wate, She told me they mail the package out tue to my fiance.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresI-129F Filed
Hi all,

I filed my I-129F yesterday and got that process started to get married to my fiancé Chantal and move her here to Florida from Montreal. I have pretty much been lurking on VJ for awhile now absorbing as much knowledge as possible and I just wanted to thank everyone on the board for their collective knowledge and help, even if it was unbeknownst to them.

Thanks,

Stacy

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Proceduresproof of meeting in the past 2 years...
It's better to send a bit of everything than an album of photos. I was surprised to hear only 5 pictures as well - my fiance and I had separated 45 aside. But it is not necessary to send all those - USCIS would get tired of seeing our photos and wouldn't look at all of them.
Send those that can show you're in another country, of you two happy to be together, of you both with family/friends...

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Proceduresproof of meeting in the past 2 years...
Do you have bank statements that show you were in Morocco?
E-mails between you and your fiance talking about a trip?
Proof that you lived/worked there (if applicable)?

Maybe the airline can give you some kind of proof if you don't have the boarding passes - sky miles etc.
If this helps, this is what I sent for our case:
(I know everyone is different, but maybe it will help)

Copy of Brazilian visas from passport
Copy of Stamped entries into Brazil
Copy of teaching certificate from Brazil
Copy of both sides of Brazilian residency card with translation
Copy of Flight Coupons and Itinerary from latest trip
Receipt from hotel and business card with translation
Pictures (6) from 2004 until the present

I'm sure there are couples here who can help you even more. I've seen plenty of USC-Ghanian couples. Good luck!

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresOne way ticket allowed with K1 visa?
There is no problem but I think you'll find that a one-way is cheaper.
In our case it was - and there was a big difference.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresI am starting a prayer brigade for non-stop approval of NOA2s especially for those who have long been waiting and for all other approvals you
Clara, santa cheia de claridade,
Irmã de São Francisco de Assis,
Intercede pelos teus devotos
Que querem ser puros e transparentes.
Teu nome e teu ser
Exalam o perfume das coisas inteiras
E o frescor do que é novo e renovado.
Clareia os caminhos tortuosos
Daqueles que se embrenham
Na noite do próprio egoísmo
E nas trevas do isolamento.
Clara, irmã de São Francisco,
Coloca em nossos corações
A paixão pela simplicidade,
A sede pela pobreza,
A ânsia pela contemplação.
Te suplico, Irmã Lua,
Que junto ao Sol de Assis
No mesmo céu refulge,
Alcança-nos a graça que,
Confiantes vos pedimos.
Santa Clara, ilumina os passos
Daqueles que buscam a claridade!
Amém!

Meu Santo Expedito das Causas Justas e Urgentes, Socorrei-me nesta hora de aflição e desespero.Intercedei por mim junto ao Nosso Senhor JESUS CRISTO! Vós que Sois um Santo Guerreiro, Vós que Sois o Santo dos aflitos, Vós que Sois o Santo dos desesperados, Vos que Sois o Santo das Causas Urgentes, Protegei-me, Dai-me Força, Coragem e Serenidade. Atendei ao meu pedido: "pedido". Ajudai-me a superar estas horas difíceis, protegei-me de rodos que possam me prejudicar, protegei a minha Família. Atendei ao meu pedido com Urgência. Devolvei-me a Paz e a Tranquilidade, serei grata pelo resto de minha vida e levarei Seu Nome a todos que têm Fé! Muito Obrigada.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresBirth Certificate - Forgot to Copy the Back
I know some people have photocopied the back of their BC - which was blank. I don't think it is important if there is no pertinent information there.
I copied the back of mine and there was a graph, but it was empty. I sent it along anyway, with a copy of my passport.

A friend of mine sent a photocopy of her BC which specifically said "Do not photocopy", but that is what USCIS asked for.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresQuick G-235A question
You can write UNEMPLOYED.

I believe we filled out our forms in capital letters.
bora boraFemaleBrazil2007-02-01 12:47:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresG325A
I had that same problem - my fiance's address is super long. I wrote "see attached sheet" and wrote out our names, the question # and the question and then wrote down on that additional sheet what I could not fit onto I-129F or G-325A. I had no RFEs and my application was approved rather quickly for CSC.
Good luck.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Proceduresi129f questions
It's not on the I-134 form - the OP must have made a mistake. I marked "with work authorization" as well. When you mark that your fiance will work and/or study in the U.S. it is not showing that s/he plans on coming here just for a work visa.
I believe it shows that s/he plans on making a life for him/herself here. Of course my fiance is going to work - he's not going to sit on his butt all day ;)
Don't worry about it. Be honest.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresI-129F Birth Certificate Question (line 10)
Yea, fwaguy is right. They give you 3 options for why you're a USC. I just clicked through birth. If that is your reason you don't have to go into anything - just send front/back copies of it.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresIs his part done?
He will need to complete the I-134 form stating he can sponsor you. He will need to also collect the additional proof supporting the I-134 form. But basically the rest is up to you.

I wrote both our names (and the names of others if in the picture) on the back of each photo. We also wrote the location and the date (mm/yyyy). We sent our first picture taken together - in 2004 - and then a couple from 2005 and a couple from 2006.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresLetters to Russia
A standard envelope - under a certain weight - may be 84 cents to Russia.
But with pictures your letter may weigh more. You pay (to anywhere) depending on how much you're sending.
Also, if you send your letter express than it will cost you a lot more - but you're paying for security and speed.
It's up to you.
Ask the postman/woman.

We sent all 4 copies on white paper.

If your NOA1 is from Nov. 6th you're considered a November filer. USCIS doesn't know you mailed your application in October.
Good luck - hope you get your NOA2 soon.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresInterview and very limited English
My fiance doesn't speak English and in Brazil the interviews are usually in Portuguese, I guess you can request English. I'm not worried at all, nor should you be, if Russia is like Brazil.
However, I am fluent in his language and we can show that is how we communicate.
Are you afraid that will be a problem for you, or do you speak Russian?
