It's a freaking RFE! we sent lots of proof, don't know what else they need, but we'll resend it and hope we get approved. I'm disappointed.

Hi Leenie please update the list with my biometric. Biometric date is 12/4/12, but I'm going to try an early walk in. I'm on my iPad and for some reason It won't let me format the list the right way.

Thanks!

PhilippinesVisa delivery

Hi guys, first of all I would like to thank you all for patiently answering all my queries here in VJ :) this site did a pretty good job in helping us process our K1 visa....I just got APPROVED TODAY!!!!and my fiancee and I are so happy about this news. but I have another question...it actually took me 9 hrs. before I got approve because my medical exam and passport is not yet in the USembassy. Does any one know here how long will it takes for me to receive my visa? I would like to know the time frame so I can plan ahead in buying my plane ticket while it's still cheap :P

PhilippinesInterview Questions for Teens/Pre-Teen Stepchildren
They'll probably ask them questions about you...such as: where you work, when they first met you, what you're like, if you treat them well, how often they talk to you, how long they've known you, if you have kids ( names, ages, grades), your name, age, have they ever spoken to your parents ( know their names)...these are just posibible questions they may ask. just make sure they know things about you. From what i've read from VJ, children are usually not grilled as much. Good Luck with everything!

I agree with JoannaV...you don't need to add assets, you make more than enough to be the main sponser. And I DOUBT you'll need to mention your mortgage. All they want to know is that you're able to support your household.

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresIs CR-1 / IR-1 Our Right Choice?
Yes the IR-1/CR-1...is a spousal visa....so that's what you go for.

You can get married while she's here on the torist visa, but she'll have to return home while the case is pending. About coming to visit, i think she'll be able to, but she may have a hard time at the POE.....Someone else will come along with more concrete answers for you

i would send it the way it is. I don't think they would refuse it.Passport pics have a specific size requirement so if you cut it, i don't think you'll be able to use it.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresK1 visa though we're already married in Peru?
Rule number 1....Don't lie to USCIS it always comes back to bite you!!! be honest and file for a spousal visa instead...it's better to take the long route and get approved than to lie, get denied, and then get a ban....just saying!

Not at all. They should cash it by the end of this week or early next week, keep in mind that there is a holiday this week and that there are more likely some USCIS workers taking some vacation time :)

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresSSN to get Married?
I got married in North Carolina, and since i didn't have a SSN then, i had to sign a waiver stating i didn't have one. check with your local SS office, they may have something similar there.
SisJFemaleGhana2010-12-20 17:48:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Proceduresworried about k-1 being denied

i had been living in thailand with my fiance for the last three years. we decided to get married back in may and come back to america ASAP. we got all of our paper work sent in for a k-1 on july 27th, NOA1 on july 31st. i had my own internet business that was generating income, but i had no proof of it. pretty much i was spending what i was making, not really saving any money. after doing research on this site, i found out that thailand does not allow co sponsors and that i needed proof of income to get her back to the states. so, i just arrived back in the states two days ago (on the 5th of january) and i have been looking for work so i can send her the documents to show the immigration officers in bangkok that i am working and have income to support. i have no proof of income from the last three years because i was in thailand, doing my own business. no w2's, tax returns, nothing. i have a little bit of money in a few banks in america, but much less than 10k.

i have a few questions:

once i find a job and can provide a letter from my employer stating that i make "x" amount along with pay stubs, will that be enough for them to approve a visa for her?

i dont have many bank statements. i have money in two bank accounts, but it does not amount to much. will this affect the decision?

on special occasions, will the embassy in bangkok allow a co sponsor if we write to them, explaining our situation? my father would be the co-sponsor. my father has pictures of my fiance and him together so there is proof that they have met before and have a friendship.

thank you in advance to everyone who replies!




Someone correct me if i'm wrong, but if you're married, your K-1 is no longer valid. you have to file CR-1......right?
