K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresDisturbed about info I received on K1 Visa
the reported that that they tell you "january 16" is like a defense mechanism, if your NOA 1 date isnt earlier than Jan 15, they are going to tell you straight up that the computer system wont put in a service request for you. All you gotta do is wait or contact your congress man or senator and you might be able to get some help. I had to wait 6 months and almost 2 full weeks so i know the feeling :thumbs:

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresSome questions
everyone go about it differently, we wrote a detailed page about everything up to our proposal including how we met, dates of trips, locations, durations and all. Other people just wrote the basic like dates, location and duration and got approved too. Its up to you to do what you want. But a little extra info wont hurt

The expiration date on the form is the least of your concern. It wont get rejected because of that, as long as the papers arent really old, you are alright.

as for additional info that can not fit, just hand write it in neat and legible.

Good luck with your Journey and welcome to VJ :thumbs:

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresExtremely Stupid question

Hi all,

Another "stupid" question on the K-1 process. I have my interview on August 22nd.
I will bring all forms required. So I made a copy of the DS-156 to have two copies.
Now on the DS-157, the last section asks if you made any travel arrangement. I did (for air ticket cost obvioulsy).
Would it be an issue during the interview?
And I guess putting No would be dumb as it would be so easy for them to check with my passport number.

Its wise not to make travel arrangements until you know if your approved. what if things dont work out as planned? its ok to say your looking at a possible date to leave or have a date reserved with the airline before purchasing the ticket. It shouldnt be a problem at the interview still cause they going to ask questions about the relationship, not those irrelevant stuff :thumbs:

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresRFE for divorce decree of fiance that has never been married???? confused!
i think you might need to contact USCIS and try talk to a Level 2 customer service rep. a level one is not going to help. Ask them specifically about your case and get some answers before submitting anything, because it might have been an error on USCIS behalf.
djricky4MaleJamaica2012-08-11 21:48:00

djricky4MaleJamaica2012-08-13 14:34:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresHow to put a serv request
to qualify for a service request, you need to call USCIS and find out the current processing date that they are reporting for K1 petition. If they have passed your NOA1 date, then you can easily get a service request. otherwise it is going to be difficult to get it.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresK1 Process Questions
once the K1 petiton is approved, you can take you little time getting the other stuff ready. The times @ the service centers fluctuate during the year. No telling whats going to happen once you apply. but you will have the visa for a validity of 6 months from the date of your medical and another 3 months to get married. thats 9 months plus waiting on the petition to be approved about (5 months on average) :thumbs:

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresDS-156K Form

Hey Guys,

So with the DS-156K form, it says on the bottom of it that we must provide certain documents (like birth certificate, police certificate, evidence of engagement, etc) with this form, but I've read that you DO NOT send any documents until your actually interview.

Please help, we want to get these forms mailed by tomorrow morning. Thanks so much! :help:


you need to post your topic in the regional forum, i have provided the link for you. hopefully you get the answer your looking for :thumbs:

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresI-129F Fees and Presentation

Hi all!

We are just about to submit our I-129F form very soon, hopefully tomorrow. I'm suddenly confused about the initial fee and just wanted to check before sending it off.

I found a price of $240.00 quoted here: http://london.usemba...as/iv_fees.html

and $340.00 quoted here: http://www.uscis.gov...000b92ca60aRCRD

It seems that the $240 is current but if someone who knows the actual fee for definite and could just let us know that'd be much appreciated.

We are also slightly unsure how to present the package. We have gone through the package checklist as given in the guide and have everything ready. We don't know whether to use binders/plastic wallets etc. What is the most professional presentation? What makes it easiest for the officer checking our case?

How should we ship it? It may become too bulky for the envelope we were intending to use.

Many Thanks!

DO NOT BIND THE PETITION. Just try to keep it together so nothing gets lost before reaching USCIS (we punched holes in the top and put in a paper binder) . The filing fee for the petition K1 petition is the $340 you see on uscis. The $240 is the money for the visa that you have to pay before your interview.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Proceduresairlines and one way tickets with K-1

No...it's not suspicious...It's quite normal. The airline does know what a K-1 visa is, and so does the travel agent. They understand that it is a non-immigrant visa, so they try to get you to purchase a round trip ticket. This is normal. Find another agent and explain to them that even though it is a non-immigrant visa that you will not require a round trip ticket.

I agree :thumbs:
