K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresFiance Visa Problem... Help!!!
Hi, I'm a newbie here.
Here is my story...
My Fiance(EJ) & I had been dating since 2009. But we broke up early of 2011 & I met a guy(LEE)& we've been dating for a few months until he got me pregnant. & when I told him about my pregnancy he told me straight to my face that he wasn't ready to settle down. He will just support our child. Then we parted ways.
...It was my 3rd month of pregnancy when EJ called me up asking me how I was & I told him everything (that I had a boyfriend after him, I got pregnant but Lee wasn't ready thats why we broke up)... EJ was said he was sad... But still wish me goodluck about my pregnancy after almost an hour of talking he said goodbye...
1 month had passed... Its was my fourth month of pregnancy... When EJ called me again he told me that he was deeply hurt after he learned that I was pregnant, he said he can't sleep at night because he's thinking of me :( after a month of sleepless night he realized that he still love me & told me he want me back he even wanna marry me. Even though I got pregnant with somebody else. He is willing to take the responsibility of being a father to my child... But I turned down his offer because I felt that time It wasn't right... It's so not fair to him... It's like I'm being dishonest to him even though we're not together anymore when I got pregnant... But he said will do whatever it takes to win me back. (believed me I still love him too)... But it's just sooo not fair to him... After a months of pursuing me I finally gave in. We got back together on my 7th months of pregnancy.
He' calls me often especially on his Day Off. Calling is our number 1 means of communication. After a month when i gave birth he ask me the most important question in my life :) he said if "I can be His Wife?" he said he is willing to be a father to my child"... & i said YES! With a tears of happiness... But we decided that he will file the Fiance(e) Petition after a few months because ge wanted me to take care of my child first...

He filled the Petition March 2013...
My question is how long will I wait to have my Interview?

Problem(s):
I only have 2 snail mails that he send me because we talked a lot on the phone. But we dont have a call history of telephone bills to show because he use call cards. & we a few email to each other because I don't have internet at home & he is not into "using computers" until now told me that he ask his kids to teach him the basic ;) (BTW he is already divorce with his former wife)
Will I have a problem with the CO about the proofs? What should I do? Please help...

He's coming this July 2013 to see me&my child...

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresVisa in Hand...next set of paperwork

Hi Guys,

Thankful to have the coveted K1 Visa in my hot little hand... have paid the USCIS Immigrant Fee via Ellis.... question..when I went to complete my profile it asked me to up load a bunch of documents.. Do I have to do this as it mentions something about changing from a non-immigrant visa so I didn't upload anything. and the instructions don't mention anything about it.  So just paid the $165 and added my US address and contact details.

 

Second question.  The concurrent filing of the next lot of paperwork.... can someone please assist me as to how to do this, forms etc and any hints to speed up the process would be HUGELY appreciated..

 

I am excited to have the visa and just want to begin preparation for the next step when I arrive... I know the answers may already be on the VJ forum somewhere, but if I could get some help on this it would be GREAT.... thanks so much!!

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresPolice certificate discrepancies

you must have the federal police check done with fingerprints. It will cost you around $100 plus the fingerprints.  on the form it asks you where you have lived and they do it for all of Australia.  the name check is a waste of time and money as its unacceptable.  the Feds tak around 3 to 4 weeks to process it.  You go to a local police station and get finger prints done and they send them with the forms downloaded from the AFP website directly to the FEDS.  YOU must supply a traceable envelope that you have addressed to the AFP in Canberra.

If you have lived anywhere else in the world for longer than a year you will need police certs done from them as well.  This is the only way to do it.

 

All the best

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresHeeelp G-325A form signature question!!! help!

I agree, your signature does not have to be legible. Just sign as you would sign anything else, like checks or autographs biggrin.png    That's why there's always a line for "Print name" also.

you can mail it from abroad, but be careful cause if you are filling for fiancee visa the address is in Texas, not Chicago. That is if you are filling for fiancee visa of course :)

do you by any chance have a copy of the declaration of meeting for the past 2 years? is it in narrative form describing how we met and what happened the whole duration of our stay together?


We wrote a short story where we met every time with the exact dates that can be found on the copies of plane and bus tickets. It was half a page, but don't write more than one page B-)

We already sent ours like that even if it said it was expired. I assume it's ok considering they haven't changed it with the new one. And besides, I think previous editions are accepted. Don't worry about it :)

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresCriminal Record and P.O. Box question

you can apply with the closest German consulate in Italy. you fill out a form and a couple of weeks later you'll get a letter with the police records.


:thumbs:
if i remember correctly, they only issue police records in german language; so for her interview she'll need to translate it.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresSending 129-f petition soon. Questions!

If natural-born citizen, copies of Birth Certificate and all pages of valid passport. If naturalized-citizen, copies of Naturalization Certificate and all pages of valid passport.

Good luck!!


Sorry, but i have to contradict you a little..
One document is enough. So it's either copy of US birth certificate OR copy of certificate of naturalization OR copy after all passport pages(issued with a validity period of at least 5 years).

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresSending 129-f petition soon. Questions!

Hello! I am sending my 129-f packet soon. I have a couple of questions:

I am confused about showing proof of U.S. citizenship. I made a copy of my birth certificate, well a copy of a certified copy of my birth certificate. Is that okay to use? I thought it was my actual birth certificate but at the bottom it says "Certified copy of vital records."

My mother is going to be our co-sponsor. It is okay if she writes the $340 check for the filing fee?


In the I-129f instructions says: "If you were born in the United States, give USCIS a copy, front and back, of your birth certificate", so it's ok just a copy. Passport copy is also good for proof of US citizenship(copy after all passport pages)

And yes, your mom can write the check on her name, but tell her to check this link before she fills it out, so that it won't be any problem with the payment:)

put them in a plastic bag and write on the back of the photos who is in the photos, locations and dates--> label the bag(photos of proof of having met in the last 2 years).
for the passport type photos, write on the back of the photos the full name of the person,put each one of them in a plastic bag and clip them to a sheet of paper(for G-325A).Also dont forget to label the bag.
Read the guide in case you forgot something else

Another question: How should we attach the passport pictures to the g-325as? I have the actual passport picture just paper clipped to the front of each g-325a. Is this wrong? How should we do it?


write the name on the back, put the photo in a bag, label the bag and attach it to a paper sheet. the photo attached to the paper sheet should go behind the g-325a form. this is how we did it :)

Hi! I sent iour Fiance k-1 visa package today ( I am American Citizen, he is Pakistani, living in Abu Dhabi) for myself and my fiance....after reading all of this...I feel like I may have left some things off...when I actually thought I sent too much. here is what I sent...

You sent a little too much(proof of support it will only be needed at the interview stage). I dont think it'll be a problem that. Oh, and you also needed a cover letter :)
did you also include a g-1145 form ? it is optional and it's for e-mail notifications :)
good luck!

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresQuestion on NOA1 (Wrong Address)
NOA1 is not that important, the most important one is the NOA2 letter, as you will need that letter when you will apply for AOS. As long as your fiance made the correction with USCIS and they have now the right address, everything should be fine.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresQuestions on K-1 visa
I'll try to answer, cause we are almost in the same situation as you(my fiancé has dual citizenship and he has been living in Europe for the last 10 years), but if I am wrong someone please correct me.
1. No
2. No
3. I'm pretty sure they won't do that
4. Send any proof that shows that you two met each other in the last two years(photos, traveling papers from your vacation etc). You might wanna also attach a paper explaining your situation
5. that's for the interview stage. Probably you'll need a co-sponsor, cause I don't think your savings will do
6. I wouldn't go to a lawyer. Seems a pretty easy case.

Good luck!

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresFacebook CHats
There is another way...go to your messages with your fiance, then click on Actions-->Forward Messages, choose the messages you want to forward to your email address and then you can print them. It takes a little bit of work if you have a lot conversations.

top right corner, next to "Home" is a pull down arrow. click it and open "Account Settings".

on this page, look at the bottom middle, and click "Download a copy of your Facebook data."

this will include EVERYTHING about you on facebook...it'll include your chat logs.


I just tried that but it doesn't give you the messages all together for one person..it gives you the messages for every day...which gives you a headache if you are talking to a lot of persons on facebook. Printscreen seems to be the easier way in this situation:)

Thank you. I just don't want to write a book. lol I tend to write a lot. I just don't want to give so much unnecessary detail but leave maybe what they consider important out. It's kinda hard knowing what are the key things they are really interested in knowing about and look for. Posted Image
Thank you so much!


Just give them exactly what they are asking for...we actually wrote it like a very short story(less than half a page and we actually met 4 times in 1 year), with dates that correspond with the boarding passes. Very short, so that they don't get bored while reading it.
