K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresAffidavit of Support question
Hey guys,

A quick question. My fiance is in the USAF. Does he need a letter from AF as evidence of his employment or payslip would be enough? Does he need tax returns?


Thank you in advance

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresVisiting while waiting?
Hey,

I just came back to UK from visiting my fiance in the US. Had to go through secondary inspection. They asked me questions about our relationship, my job, his job, my plans while in the US. I had my return ticket, insurance papers and letter from my employer. Then they searched my suitcase, asked couple more questions and let me go after i promissed not to marry him this time smile.gif It all took around 45 minutes. To be honest it's not the most pleasant experience in ur life, but at the end of the day u're going to see ur loved one, so who cares smile.gif
Once u see ur fiance, u forget all the hassle u went through smile.gif

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresQuestion and concern about checklist for packet 3...
I prepared my forms for packet 3 too and got confused with signing or not signing. It's so frustrating. It's said on the checklist in bold Do NOT sign the DS-156 form, so i didn't sign it. I only signed DS-230 Part I. I hope it's all right, cause i'm getting really nervous. unsure.gif

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresWill the B1/B2 Visa be revoked if you apply for a K1?
QUOTE (Kamz @ Apr 10 2008, 11:59 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
Hi everyone! I am new to VJ and I was wondering if you would know where I can actually find information or advise. I have an existing B1/B2 Visa. If my fiance files for a K1 for me, will my B1/B2 Visa get revoked while the K1 is under process? I don't care if they cancel it after my K1 is approved. I guess my concern is, I would like to keep seeing my Fiance before we eventually get married after the K1 is approved. I tried calling the National Visa Center but it's all a series of recorded messages. Any suggestions?

Thanks!



Ur B1/B2 visa won't be revoked while K1 is pending, u can still visit ur fiance if u want. I have a pending K1 and a valid B1/B2 visas and i just went to see my fiance recently. The border protection officers just pay particular attention to u when u fly there smile.gif

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresG-325A
Sorry. Not clear to me what you are trying to say?
" you need to send 2 copies of G-325A, one for US citizen and one for beneficiary" 1 + 1 doesn't equal 8
Sounds like you are saying you only send a total of 2 copies for both instead of 8!
Then more confusion!
"Make sure ALL 4 pages are signed and dated"
[/quote]

When u print out a copy of G-325A u get 4 pages which have to be signed and dated
same has to be done for the second G-325A copy
i guess i should've broken it down completely

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedureslawyer or not?
QUOTE (ms_jinga_lala @ Dec 4 2008, 11:16 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
I'm just curious how many of you had lawyers and how your processing of the K-1 went whether you had one or not? And by that I mean if you didn't use a lawyer do you feel like it was stressful, difficult, not that bad, etc. And if you had a lawyer did you feel comfortable during the filing process? And would you recommend getting a lawyer and why?


Hey,

We filed for K-1. Did everything without a lawyer, cause didn't feel like spending money on something we can do. I did a lot of research before, this webpage helps a lot. I wouldn't say it was easy, but wasn't difficult either, u just have to be prepared to do some work, be careful filing paperwork and pay attention to details.
It's gonna be stressful whether u hire a lawyer or do it yourself. The whole process makes you stressed smile.gif But it's worth it.

Back in August, I submitted my Petition for a K-1 for my fiancee (and K-2 for her daughter) who lives in Peru. We hope to receive our NOA2 soon.

When she fills out the DS-156 Nonimmigrant Visa Application for the embassy, what should she check for Questions # 36 which reads, "Has Anyone Ever Filed an Immigrant Visa Petition on Your Behalf?" Should it be "yes" or "no"?


U should check no. This question is in case somebody else ever filed a K-1 for ur fiancee.

1st thing is to get a touris visa, which after cancelled K-1 might be kinda difficult to get. And getting married on tourist visa and adjusting your status in your situation...good luck ( cause you will definitely need it). whistling.gif

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresThe requirement of seeing eachother hasn't happened yet!!
I'm sorry to say, but everybody here is right, u have to meet prior to filing the petition. Besides, how come you are ready to leave all your life behind and move to the US to live with somebody u haven't even met yet. U obviously can't go to visit because of the visa denial, but ... your fiancee doesn't want to leave the US.... Is there a serious reason for that? Or she just doesn't want to get on a plane and go through all that hassle.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Proceduresabout noa2
I have a quick question. I received my NOA2 (Petition Approval Notice) but my fiance(e) in India has not received anything so far. I am wondering if she has to go to the Embassy there and file any papers or she has to wait till she receive something in mail. Somebody told me she will receive Packet 3 then Packet 4 but the following website tells that after I (Petitioner, in USA) receives the Approval notice my fiance(e) in India should submit the Statement form to the Embassy stating that she has everything ready as far as papers for the interview. Please help as I am kinda puzzled what to do :-(

FEB-09 1ST TOUCH
JUNE-26-09 -NOA2
Still waiting here in PI my noa2...


You will not be receiving that piece of paper. Your fiance will. What you will receive are packets of instructions. NOA2 emailed will only tell you your fiance's petition for you has been approved and is on its way to the national visa center in new hampshire. from there it invariably (timeline) sends the case to the consulate in Manila. At an average however, it is between a week or a forthnight.

Congratulations!

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresK1 Visa Next step after Approval Notice received
What is the next step after I (Petitioner in USA) has received I-797 Notice of Action that my petition has been approved and forwarded to the listed consulate.

-- Do I have to ask my fiance(e`) to file any forms/ papers in the U.S. Embassy in Delhi, India (place where my Fiance(e) resides)? OR
-- Wait for U.S. Embassy (Delhi, India)/ Consulate to contact her and ask for papers ?

Following link I came across online says that my fiance(e) in Delhi, India has to fill up the Applicant's Statement form and submit at the Immigrant visa section at the American Embassy and also enclose the following forms :
1) Affidavit of support (For I-134)
2) DS 230 part I
3) Photo Instructions
