K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsBeneficiary Financial Responsibilities

Only the financial situation of the US citizen is important in this process, because he is the one who needs to meet some requirements and proof that he can support you once you are in the US. At the interview (at the Consulate), the non-USC is not asked to provide any financial info (unless the procedures are very different at the Consulate in Jakarta :unsure: ). I would say that you and your fiance have nothing to worry about regarding this issue. Good luck!

edited to add: I, myself, still have financial responsibilities back in Romania. I was not asked to provide info on credit card balance or anything like that...


Thanks so much for your prompt reply Happy. I am so relieved to hear this. Congrats on your wedding and your new life together. :thumbs: Was it a difficult decision for you to move?

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsBeneficiary Financial Responsibilities
Friends,


My fiance was worried that since I have financial responsibilities such as loans and credit cards debt, it would affect my visa approval. Have you heard denial based on this? I plan to maintain my local bank account so I can send money to my family. Also I'm keeping one local credit card since I have my 20 years unit link (retirement fund + insurance) deducted monthly. (The insurance is Cigna and I can't make payment via bank account). When the money is due will my acquired U.S citizenship influenced the payment? I am working hard and taking lots of over time so I can pay them all by October next year.

Your inputs and advices are highly appreciated. Thank you.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsI applied for K1 in July but still no approval?

The post you were reading was written October 4th...so ygr was referring to the October 3rd touch. Judging from your signature, you were part of that. :)


Silly me I thought there was another touched on October 4. I know 5 couples already approved from the collective touched on October 3. Our turn might be next :)

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsI applied for K1 in July but still no approval?

It seems alot of people filing through Vermont including very recent filers have all been touched yesterday - to be honest to have a mass tocuh as thins i think just explains that the system automatically updates on outstanding petitions or they are moving files from a spot to another spot, i am not convinced it has any meaning on the speed of the NOA2 :blush:


Really? There was another collective touched after October 3? How come I didn't get touched? So jealous :crying:

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsAny July Filers out there???

We are July 12th filers, and we called last week to find out. They told us (from the higher level of customer service) that they were only working on July 10 applications. BUT, come today, we just called the 800 number and got our approval as of today. Just waiting on the NOA2 hard copy now. And of course, the next step, NVC. I know it is hard, but patience is the best thing to have. It is even harder due to the holidays right now, for who knows when they mail things, work, or anything....and the blizzard? Sure it might add things. Patience, patience patience, young grasshopper.


Oh my God, congrats Ann&Wess. I am so happy for you guys. Your approval just made my day.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsAnother Approval July VSC

Yay.... my petition was finally approved on Jan 5. Got an immediate SMS, e-mail and status changed online. My NOA1 date is 7/22. I can't explain the relief and joy I am feeling. Even though we still have lot of steps but this feels awesome.

I sincerly wish and hope that you all waiting should hear something positive very soon. I don't know if helps or not, I had called my senator as soon as I had hit the 5 month mark. Senator's aide told me to hold on for 2 weeks and exactly 2 weeks later i got the approval.

Thanks for being the source of comfort and source of valuable information in this journey.

NVC here I come !!!!


Its happening. VSC is in full speed. Congrats to both of you! :dance: I think you also get touched on October 3, right? Would you mind fill in your time line to help us? Thanks for taking the time.

Cara notarisasi gimana? Minta dari bank atau harus ke notaris di USA?

Make that 3 now. I was part of the collective touch on October 3 and got my noa 2 approval last Thursday (11/4). It seems that "something" did happen that day (10/3) because when I called USCIS to follow up on my case, the higher level customer service(I guess I really bugged the person I talked to so my call got escalated to someone who knows what they're talking about and not just reading a script) I talked to informed me that my file was already at an adjudicator's desk starting 10/4. Just thought I'd share that info so that people will have a sense that "maybe" there's really something behind that collective touch and not just them moving our files from one box to another box or "spilled coffee" as I read here somewhere. Good luck to everyone who's still waiting! Be advised though that it's really looking like it's taking the entire 5 month processing time for them to adjudicate a petition. It took me 157 days!

I sure hope that everything will be faster like they said it would be after getting the noa2.

Cheers!

Yes, let's keep our eye on each other so we could share the info. For now, we plan to stay in Maryland but may be move. I just knew that American seems not really like us, me especially who just stuck in one place since kid until now. They seem love moving.


I know what you meant Utha. I was hesitant to go to Dallas because with these negative news on immigrant, I felt I wasn't welcomed. But the minute I arrived in LAX until I came back, all had been really fantastic experiences.

I am sure you will find Maryland much different than Indonesia. I will let you know my yahoo address so we can keep in touch. Till then...

I got touched again on 10/4/10 but I think it might have just been the adjucators at VSC putting my file in a storage bin or something bc I got NOA2 on 9/24 so maybe ours is in the "do this later" pile. I don't know, but all that activity almost a month ago was so exciting, now...just hoping for more summer approvals!


I feel you. Did you guys notice that VSC is barely approving petition in the last 2 weeks while CSC is speeding ahead. Even CSC had September petition approved. Let's send positive thoughts and get our long awaited NOA2 this month. (L)
