K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsMarch 2010 filers - Vermont Service Center

Hi Darren and Heather!

How you guys doing?

I just noticed that Darren came to visit after the NOA1 issued. Did he get asked special question at customs?



Hi! Things are going ok for us. Just missing each other like crazy.. lol

He wasn't asked any special questions. It was very smooth coming in this time. They asked way more questions last visit, he said.

Hiya Everyone! It's hard for us to really track from the date since our lawyer handles everything. However, we have THE RFE! :))

So.... The application has been received on 18th March. Touched couple times and nothing since 23rd of March. :(



What were they asking for in the RFE's?? Curious.

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresPlease update your timelines and not just your profle "signature."

There might be a better fix for this. One solution I can think of would be VJ.com sending emails every month to all user who have opted to have a timeline. Each user then will need to follow a special link. They will need to click on one of 3 options:
(1) There was no progress yet on my case, I want to continued to keep my timeline.
(2) There was progress on my case, I want to update it
(3) I am no longer interested in VJ.com timeline, and I would like it abandoned.
Based on the answers above and other criteria, and of course some programming logic, I think the timelines can be made more accurate.


Great idea!! :yes:

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresGrrr Just Frustrated

Darren+Heather--I hope the photo you sent works out for you but I did read that they have to be U.S passport size for the petition. The poster above me posted the link I got the info from. Like I said hope it works out for you



Now I am worried. Great. The pic I sent for Darren was not 2x2, but met all other specifications. I suppose only time will tell. If we get a RFE because of a photo then I will be gutted.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresGrrr Just Frustrated

I worked all weekend long translating my fiance's divorce certificate and assembling the I-129f packet. I had high hopes of meeting my goal of sending it of March 1st. Well when I pulled out the passport pictures she sent me I literally groaned out loud. The pictures were great for passports--Mexico Passports! Apparently the size requirements are smaller than the U.S. Well now I have to wait for a proper picture as I look at this perfectly assembled packet. Oh well just thought Id share my misery with someone out there. Oh and photoshop did cross my mind but Id rather wait a few days than jeopordize everything with fraud.



I didn't think for the I-129 packet it had to be a specific size photo. Everything I have read said it had to be a "passport type" photo. I know for the actual interview a 2x2 photo has to be presented. Maybe I am wrong, but I hope not as I have mailed mine out today.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedurestravel to us and not use K1 visa??
Oh, ok.. that is good to know. Thanks, y'all. I read that on another visa assistance site, so I am glad you clearified it for me. There is just so much false information out there.

Sorry, I had a little freak out moment when I read your question. My first impression was you had decided that you were unsure you wanted to move now, but I had time to think about it and I suppose I can see where you may not have everything completed there for you to move and you want to see your finace. Sorry, I get a little passionate about this kind of stuff. lol

I know people are saying that you have 6 months to validate your visa, but in truth you have 3 months to validate it and then 3 months to marry once you are here. You can't leave the US with out the parole paperwork completed and that can take up to 4 months. I think that is why my fiance and I are preparing for every situation now, while we wait. We have put to much time and energy into this, I would hate to risk it being revoked for any reason.

Also, you can travel between Countries while you are waiting for the Visa to be approved. My fiance has been here twice since we filed without any issue. Good luck!!

My fiance has come to visit me in America 3 times since we filed and had no issues. They asked a few simple questions, and looked at his itinerary. Best of luck! :star:

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresStill waiting for interview
Call the National Visa Center: 202-663-1225 press (1) then (0) - given them your LON number. Ask to verify whether the London Embassy has received your packet 3. If they haven't received it I would suggest that you resend it via certified mail, so they will have to sign for it. Call the NVC at least once a week to keep updated on the status of your case until you get an interview date. That is an extremely long time to not have heard anything. We sent ours in weeks later and have an interview date set. It also could be that they have set the interview, but you haven't received Packet 4 with the interview letter.
