K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresHelp..

Three threads by same OP have been merged.  OP, multiple posters have suggested that you read the Guides. This is the smart and courteous thing to do before posting.  If you ask the most basic of questions when the information is readily available (not only in the Guides, but in multiple previous threads), you clutter the forums and risk short-tempered replies from others.  Please study before posting.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresFiance's end of the K-1 Fiance Visa

Your fiancee (spelling for the female half of the engaged couple) needs to provide you a Letter of Intent to Marry with an original signature.  She might also provide you any "evidence of bona fide relationship" that might bolster your petition package (although Manila is not a tough embassy).  Given the time that it takes for USCIS to process petitions, there's no need for her to return to the Philippines anytime soon.

 

The above can be inferred from the Guides in the link above, and from studying the forums.

Welcome to VisaJourney!  And thanks for reading as much as you could before you posted. :thumbs:

 

1.  You have to mail it.

2.  Provide convincing evidence that you met in person within the last 2 years.  I'd include all the passes.

Yes, that's the "consular phase" or the "embassy phase."

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresK-1 visa

Welcome to the forums!  To be precise, you're working on the I-129F petition.  The "K-1 visa application" happens later, during the consular phase.  It's important to distinguish between the two. :)

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresAfter NOA2 what's the next

Honestly, you should have been preparing since the time the petition was submitted, or at least since one or more members of the couple became members of VisaJourney.

 

Sincere questions:  Have you thoroughly studied the "Embassy Info" and "Reviews: Embassy" (links atop any VJ page) for your consulate?  Have you read the various relevant posts in the Caribbean regional subforum?  Have you budgeted otherwise-untouchable funds for the petitioner's mandatory appearance at the beneficiary's visa interview in Santo Domingo?  Presuming that a visa is granted, have you allocated funds for the AOS fees?  Why do these queries need to be made at this stage?

 

Before anyone chooses to become offended on the OP's "behalf," please consider the up-side of a long wait for petition approval:  being fully prepared for the subsequent steps.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresStarting our k-1, we are so nervous!

Welcome to VJ, si man!  It's great that you're studying the forums -- keep it up.

 

In regard to forms, one of VJ's wisest members has said, "Read carefully, interpret literally, and answer completely and honestly."  Give the required information plus any extra if it would alleviate doubt or difficulty in identifying the location.  No need to go overboard.


TBoneTXMaleEcuador2013-11-05 02:02:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresREF for k1

When the RFE letter comes, it will tell you what you're lacking.  Supply everything exactly as they ask for it.  It could be something as simple as an unchecked box or a missing signature.

 

Absolutely every copied page of the passport -- even if blank -- is to be sent with the I-129F petition, if you're using it to verify your U.S. citizenship.  The passport stamps are primary evidence of your having traveled to the beneficiary's country.  Review the K-1 Guides (link atop any VJ page).

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresCan someone please explain this process to me, your own experiences?

You will not have any issue with age for your K1. You over stress yourself. You are not from a high fraud country.

You do not need to hire attorney because it is a waste of money but if you want to, feel free to hire them.

This process is easy and it's just filling out paperwork and all the instructions are written clearly.

Please avoid providing absolute assurances to anyone on these forums.  No one is assured of anything during this process.

 

-- The age difference might not be an issue; this won't become clear until the visa interview.

-- We don't know every particular of the OP's situation, so saying not to hire an attorney is premature.

-- The process is not easy for some people who lack the time, inclination, or attention to detail necessary to handle the petition paperwork.

Study ahead -- read "Embassy Info" and "Reviews: Embassy" (links atop any VJ page) for the consulate where the eventual visa interview will be held.  This stage is down the road for you, but it should not be taken lightly.  The procedures, requirements, and perils can vary widely among consulates.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresVisa expires on 19th May 2014. Do I need to get married before that or just present in the US before/on that date?

I HAVE to be in the US before/at 19/May/2014

 

if I want to go to the US on the 2nd month after visa approval, that means now I'll have 90 days to get married (based from I-94)

 

the same theory applies if I reach the US on the 5th month of the visa validity, I'd still get 90 days to get married

These are your answers. :)
