It depends. Some consulated do. Only DS230 part1. (K1 applicant is also considered as an immigrant-that is the reason. I had to at Chennai, India for my K3 which is similar to K1)


Manila does not use the DS-230 for K Visas

Irene lived in Japan off and on for about 10 years. She went to the Japan Embassy to get the process going but was told that she needs a special form from the US Embassy to put in the request. Does anyone have any idea where we might be able to get one prior to her interview? Also her last time in Japan was 10 years ago and teh only place tahts recorded is on the ds-230. Do they always ask for that form? Any suggestions ill be greatly appreciated.


When you file for a visa, the US embassy will send you all of the necessary forms. In Japan, there is no way to obtain a police certificate without the document from the embassy. After you receive the NOA2 from the service center (either CSC or VSC), they will send your approved case to NVC who will then forward it to the beneficiaries home country. Once the home country's embassy receives the pkg from NVC, they'll send the forms to the beneficiary.

Hope this helps.



Hola,

thank you and hope to ask you one more plz??/the letter i recieved was from US Embassy saying that i was eligible for interview and i can download thier instruction and all the forms from the website,but i cant find the form for letter of request from US mbassy to apply Police certificat at japan embassy,my interview sched will be 2 weeks from now and to apply the pc to JE takes 3 months..i dont know wat to do,if i still need to show up on the date of my interview w/out the PC and ask them the letter of request???and is this can be a delay of approval or might i get deny?

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresCSC to TSC to NVC: the Saga continues

When it rains, it pours...........................

We have hit a freaking roadblock and I am pi$ed. Wife called about an hour ago, pretty upset so I had a hard time understanding what she was saying.

Eventually I figured it out, for one, they said they do not have the divorce decree that I sent, the original and a copy. Christ!! She said that they said I could scan and email it to the Embassy.

Secondly, they are saying she was an OVERSTAY on her K-1 Visa even though we were married well within the 90 day window. We did not file AOS right away as I was laid off soon after we married. I made an INFOPASS appt back then to see what the requirements were for filing AOS and I was told there was NO time frame to apply. Good...........Long story short, unemployed for 5 months until I took a job across country in Florida. Due to the move and our son due 3 months after arriving, we delayed AOS once again. 4 months later I was laid off again, went a few months until I found work only to be laid off for a 3rd time. Needless to say, no income, no AOS. The economy really screwed me when it came to finding a damn solid job!!

Well, now we need to file an I-601 (Application for Waiver on Grounds of Inadmissibility) and pay an additional $585; they are expediting this. I am waiting for an email back from the Embassy since I cannot call and speak to anyone in the Visa Unit to confirm what my wife had explained to me. I am going over the I-601 and it is pretty straightforward, all 11 pages!! I'll email it to my wife and she can show up at the Embassy on Monday or Tuesday to continue this NIGHTMARE.

I want to BREAK something right now!!



I know exactly how you feel,I am so sorry.

You're reading this wiki right? http://www.visajourn...il_DS-3032_form There's no mention of a barcode. You just email the data that's on that page, send it from the beneficiary's email account, and that's it.

No, you don't send evidence of a bona fide marriage. That's only required at the USCIS stage and possibly at the interview. None is needed at NVC.



Thank you so much!!!

Do I have to send evidence for bonafide marriage with IV package also?(I already sent them to USCIS when I got RFE)
