K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresIs a lawyer necessary?
We didnt use a lawyer because we had a pretty straight forward case (no kids, no previous marriages, no criminal record). Our K-1 process took 102 days from sending the petition to VSC until my Interiew in Frankfurt.

I hope you dont have to wait any longer on your approval. It's getting ridiculous! I can't imagine how you two must feel. I was going crazy and i only had to wait 102 days from sending the I-129F until my Interview.
I wish you good luck and i will pray for a "speedy" approval (F) (L)

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresJust curious
Our petition left VSC on the 18th of August and it was received at the US consulate in Germany on the 23rd of August. I don't know the exact date when it was delivered at the NVC and when it left the NVC. My fiance tried to call a couple of times but he never got to speak to a "real" person"

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresFiance visa to expire
I dont think its easy for anybody to leave their countries they have lived in all their lives. Sure, the foreign fiance(e)'s have to give up a lot but we all knew that before. Me and my fiance thought about all that before we even got engaged. One person has to give up eveything and basically start a new live in the US.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures19 YR OLD Marrying 16 YR OLD
What about getting a student visa? So she can study in the US and you guys can be together and see if everything works out. If it does then you two still can get married.

In my opinion 16 is far too young to get married.

Good luck to you. Whatever path you take :luv:

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresLetter from his commander? For I-129F packet
My husband is in the US army (currently working as an US Army recruiter in Elizabeth NJ) and we sent a letter from his station commander (SFC Moore) along with the I-134.

Letter from employer:

To whom it may concern:

CPL XXX has been working as a United States Active Army recruiter in our company since 2006 June 05, full time. Such a position is permanent. His annual salary is approximately $37.000.


Signature
Moore, Station Commander
SFC, USAREC

The letter has to state since when he had his job, if it is full time or part time and his salary.

We wasnt sure if we really needed to sent a letter from his employer along with our petition or not. We did it, to prevent getting a RFE over some stupid stuff like a missing letter from his employer....

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresK1 or K3?
Fiance(e) (K-1) Visa

ADVANTAGES
You don't need to marry immediately in your Fiance(e)'s country or the U.S.

You bring your loveone to the U.S. as your Fiancee, and both of you have 90 days to get married. This allows you both to get to know each other better and make a decision about whether you want to spend the rest of your lives together.

You deal nearly exclusively with the U.S. immigration system and U.S. immigration officials here, in the United States.

You avoid dealing with local foreign procedures of marriage in a foreign country in a foreign language.

DISADVANTAGES:


Your fiancee has a chance to see the country and get familiar with U.S. customs and language before the marriage.
Your Fiance(e) needs to make a strong effort to convince the Immigration Officer at the U.S. Embassy or Consulate in her home country, that you are both in love and are planning to get married upon her arrival in the U.S.

Close family and friends will NOT see your Fiance(e) get married in the U.S. unless they could manage to obtain another type of visa such as a tourist visa, which is hard to obtain.



Spousal visa (K-3)

ADVANTAGES
You are both together immediately. Your wife's family and friends are able to attend your wedding without any delay, which is very important for Russian bride.

Local marriage in a foreign country can sometimes be accomplished in 10 days, or less.

Depending on the U.S. Consulate, the process could take much less time.

Since with a Spousal visa your wife gains U.S. legal residency immediately, future immigration work is substantially reduced. There is no need to file for the Adjustment of Status Application and wait for months during which time your wife cannot travel freely without obtaining travel parole every time she travels outside of the U.S.


DISADVANTAGES:

Extensive supporting documentation is usually necessary of a U.S. Citizen to get married in a foreign country.

It is a two-step process, instead on one. First, you are required to submit a package for the Form I-130. And, second, upon USCIS Notice of Action, you would need to send I-129F Package. It takes time and a lot of patience from both of you.

This process is very document-sensitive which means that if you are missing a document, you may have to fly back to the U.S. in order to obtain a necessary document before process can be completed.

All your documents must be translated into the native language of that country where you are planning to get married. The translation much be certified with attached apostle.

Your might end up with more expenses for the marriage itself and Embassy visa processing charges and fees.

just be patient. it usually takes about 2-3 weeks until your petition reaches the NVC. Due to the holidays (xmas, New years) it will take a little longer than usual.

Dont worry your case will get there :thumbs: :blush:

You are saying that the whole I-129F petition got sent back???? (thats not a RFE!)
Dont bother to call them, because they cant give you any information yet since your case is probably not even in their system yet.
Like i said before all you can do right now is sit back and relax and wait on your NOA1 which should come soon!
The MolinasFemaleGermany2007-02-16 16:29:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresForgot to submit G235A now what???

The MolinasFemaleGermany2007-02-16 16:24:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresForgot to submit G235A now what???
You already have your NOA1 (Notice of action).
Wait until they sent you another RFE asking for the missing pages of you G-325

They are already "working" on your case.
The MolinasFemaleGermany2007-02-16 16:18:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresForgot to submit G235A now what???
If you meant NOA2 then first of all you already have a case number...
second, wait until they sent you a RFE. Dont sent them anything, without them specifically asking for it. It might cause delays to your case.

Other than that good luck and a speedy approval
The MolinasFemaleGermany2007-02-16 16:14:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresForgot to submit G235A now what???
