K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresTravelling 3-4 months abroad while visa is in process???
Hey thanks for the reply. I dont excactly understand what you mean with with IMBRA, RFE ( Im new to this forum :blush: ) etc. We already got our NOA 1 on 6/12 its all filled out etc. Im waiting for this NOA2 thing..and this might take forever.


That will not be a problem, with the following exception:

Even if you use the "new and improved" I-129F with the IMBRA issue included, you may still receive a Request for Information (RFE) with the IMBRA questions.

If you are the USC, can someone forward that mail to you in South America? You will want to fill that out and return it ASAP, or your process will halt. They also impose a time limit to respond to the RFE.

With that said, be sure to establish a way to get that mail forwarded to you.

Good Luck.





Hey there,

I got a question. Does anyone know if there will be any problems with the K1 Visa when I travel at least 4 months in South America while it is being processed. I still will be registered at an address in Germany.

Thanks for help.

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & Procedureswhat to do while waiting?
Thanks for your help, everyone. I had just started gathering what I need when the packet came. Now, we've filled out our DS230 and sent it back in. When we have everything that we need, we're supposed to fax the consulate and tell them that we're ready for an appointment.

Until then, I have to get my taxes in order. Geesh. blush.gif I can't believed that I believed that I didn't have to report and pay my taxes when I wasn't in the U.S. Oh well. I'm on it now!

Thanks for your support!!!!

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & Procedureswhat to do while waiting?
Hi Everyone,
We've submitted our I-130 and it's been received. We had to mail additional material, but that went quickly and easily. Now, they said that we should wait for about 90 days. . . I have two questions:
1- What should I be doing while I'm waiting? Probably preparing for the next step. Does anyone have a list of what that is and what we need to gather? (I feel like an idiot, but I'm just overwhelmed and totally nervous.. . )
2- What's this about filing for taxes? I've (the US citizen) been working in Germany for almost three years and paying taxes here. My accountant in the States has always told me that I don't have to file US taxes then. So, I feel like I've put myself into a trap! What should I do? Any suggestions?

I appreciate anyone's advice and expertise here. This site is so great- just to have a sounding board and to gather opinions and advice!

Thanks in advance,
Marianne (the 'MO' of our log-name smile.gif )

Middle East and North AfricaDCF still possible?

I don't have one b/c I am a born US citizen, my husband does not have one since he is the one applying for US naturalization in the first place...although the form seems to stress the alien reg. number as if it is manditory.

Also, on all EIGHT forms...which are all identical...the information is basically the same all eight times, right? The info for the applicant is always the same info about my husband, whether the form is for me or him, right? I'm the petitioner, he's the applicant?

correct



and the alien reg no, you do not have you don't put

on your form put the alien reg number if you have one (ex if you've been naturalized you have one), if you do not have do not put. the same for your husband. ;)

G-325A has 4 identical pages. You need to fill all the 4 pages with the same info for you....another G-325A with 4 pages for your husband. :thumbs:

Hi and Salaam gang,

I keep hearing conflicting information...can we still file for DCFs after the whole Adam Walsh situation???

Hubby is Egyptian but we live in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia and will be filing from here (Riyadh). We have TRIED to contact the embassy a million times and they NEVER answer the phone and they also do not answer emails...it's difficult to get there physically because of the driving restrictions here on females and the very short window of time they see individuals for immigration questions.

:help:

Thanks guys!

Emily


Salam Amina
yes you can file your petition in riyadh post
i think my wife and I have the same case as you

you can check my timeline and post, so you could find the similarity for your case

you need to fill the following as instructed to do so
1- I-130 form ( fill in all information they asked for in this form, it is 2 pages "page 5 and 6" staple it and sign it as the
petitioner (since ur husband is the beneficiary) , there are 4 pages to instruct and help you

2- g-325a form ( it is 4 pages)
A- G-325a for you (Sign all pages and staple as one part)
B- G-325a for your husband (Sign all pages and staple as one part)
3- Marriage Certificate
A- if it is in Arabic Language, you have to translate it
B- take both the original certificate and the translated with you
C- one photocopy for each the original and translated
4- passport Size photograph for each of you
A- you can check the photograph specification, if you cant find it, just inform me and i'll tell you the
requirements for the photographs .
5- Original Passports for both of you and photocopies for the Bio pages of each
6- $190 Fees for I-130 Form
7- If Applicable you US Birth certificate (they won't ask for it, but just in case )
8- go to the Embassy in Diplomatic quarter from Saturday- Wedensday between 2pm and 5pm
9- you don't need appointment so dont bother yourself and the embassy officeres to get appointment
(just go to the embassy and don't wait in the queue and tell the gate security that you gonna file IV Petition)
10- the officer will ask you some questions then he/she will tell you to go home till they inform you about the approval
from the CIS.
11- before you go home ask him to give you the IV package (first page color is pinky)
12- after one or two weeks they will call you to tell whether CIS has approved ur petition or not
13- if they approved ur petition, Gongratulation now you can proceed with ur IV package (Medical Examination,
Affidavit of support, DS230 patr II etc)
thats it
Good luck
