K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	is this a scam? Please help	QUOTE (rdsey @ Nov 12 2008, 08:48 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I was married by someone who used me for his Green Card. In another relationship, although I love this man I dont want this to happen to me again so I dot my i, and cross my t's and yes im guilty about allowing the past to hunt me. I do want to know if this is ok to do or if this is another scam to use me again. My frien asked me to set him reservation in a country that would freely allow him to come to USA. He stated that once he received reservation (invitation to come?) he would take it to the Embassy or Immugration Im not sure on it. They would allow him to go over then once there he can come to USA. Im not sure of the timeline on any of this. Im wondering if this is a scam once he gets over, get what he needs and thats it. Please if u have info pleas share with me i dont want a repeat of my first husband. Thank You Much! don't walk away,R U N!!! THIS IS A GREAT WAY TO HAVE A VERY LARGE LEGAL PROBLEM...	john & jean	Not Telling	Philippines	2008-11-12 21:57:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	call center agent	If you were denied they will say so at the interview. They will also return the passport. The call center is a waste of time. I hope that you get the visa soon. Waiting after the interview is the hardest part. We waited two months seventeen days after the interview.	john & jean	Not Telling	Philippines	2008-12-02 22:36:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	age diference?	QUOTE (elkfarmer @ Dec 4 2008, 10:14 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> In Colombia it is legal to marry at age 12 with parents permission. Consent age is 14. The farther from the city you get, the more you see age difference. A lot of times it is a financial necesity. Other times it is for love and it really shows. Gentlemen age 40-50 with a teenager you ask. Saw it many times in the mountain villages. My wife happens to be 24 years my junior. There are many state in America that allow marrige at 14 with parents permission. So I can not possibly see a problem in your situation. And I wish you a long an happy marriage. Enjoy life and let others think what they will. TWENTY SIX YEARS DIFFERENCE HERE. GOT MARRIED IN THE PHILIPPINES. DID NOT HAVE ANY ISSUES. THE INTERVIEW WAS A NON EVENT, AGE WAS NEVER MENTIONED. I WILL ALMOST GUARANTEE THAT THIS POST WAS NOT WRITTEN BY THE USC. WE GET A FEW ODD LOOKS OCCASIONALLY, MOSTLY FROM AMERICAN MIDDLE AGED LADIES. I WILL SAY THAT WE ARE BOTH HAPPY. MY WIFE IS VERY MATURE FOR HER AGE. I DID NOT MARRY MY WIFE BECAUSE OF HER AGE. WE HAVE A LOVING, CARING RELATIONSHIP. LIVE LIFE AS IF TODAY IS THE LAST. PAY NO ATTENTION TO THE OPINION OF OTHERS. THERE IS BUT ONE THAT YOU YOU WILL BE JUDGED BY!!!	john & jean	Not Telling	Philippines	2008-12-04 23:35:00

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	Which way is quicker?	QUOTE (dpregan @ Dec 24 2008, 08:10 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Hi I am a British citizen and my gf is American. We have been together for a year and are starting to look at getting married and moving to the US. We have lived together in Australia and currently in Italy. We have plenty of photo's and email's and friends who have seen us together and room mates etc etc. So I hope i'm right in thinking it is basically a rubber stamp. (This is our first time even looking or thinking about this so please forgive me if this isn't the case.) We would basically like to know which of the following, from start to finish, is a quicker method of obtaining my EAD/GC so I can start working. 1. Getting married overseas and applying afterwards. 2. Applying for a the K-1 Visa and getting married in the states. Thanks. K1 WILL BE MUCH QUICKER!!!!	john & jean	Not Telling	Philippines	2008-12-24 09:16:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	Application Denied	Unfortunate, this is a very common result when a lawyer is used.

I also wonder if this falls under the jurisdiction of the Adam Walsh Act. This discussion is going all over the place. IMBRA is about informing the immigrating K visa applicant about certain US citizen criminal records. Petitions are not denied based on IMBRA. Crimes of moral turpitude are an issue for immigrants, not US citizens. A convicted murderer on parole can get a petition approved as long as the crime didn't fall under the Adam Walsh act. There are two kinds of IMBRA waivers. 1. Waiver of the filing limitations for multiple beneficiaries. (not applicable here) 2. Waiver of reporting the crime to the intending immigrant. (that's the applicable one here) Unless the petitioner wants to conceal the record from the fiance(e) or spouse, the second waiver category isn't needed. thanks for all your responses so far and i will tell her about it. The actual charges we plead nolo to were called (affray) a lesser misdeminor charge defined as "a scuffle" but still falls under domestic violence. Yea it was probably called "Simple Battery" or perhaps Assault in the 3rd Degree. Nolo is considered a conviction but it's not an admission of guilt & it usually protects someone from a civil suit on the same charge. this is the link http://www.fianceevi...illini129f.html to one website that says if you tick yes to part c question 3 without extenuating cercumstances IE: self defense, then your application will most likely be denied. now im confused again I guess you'll just have to use your best judgment as to who knows their stuff. Why not simply read the IMBRA law itself, then use your own "stuff"? ive read hundreds of comments here and everything i can find on the subject including the Imbra law out of all the comments and opinions ive read i trust your opinion the most even above my own becouse i am emotionally involved so it makes it confusing, im trying to do my best at this	john & jean	Not Telling	Philippines	2009-01-30 18:39:00

QUOTE (Goran @ Feb 16 2009, 05:20 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> QUOTE (bar1kenoby @ Feb 16 2009, 06:08 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Hi, I need to have few information. I never met my girl cuz a lot of reasons but now the time is coming and we are planning about a K-1 visa. I knew her online and I helped her to come out from a bad story with her ex and little by little we fell in love for each other...is 1yr and half that we are always together online constantly 24/7...spending even the time that we sleep online on camera....so I was thinking that now is the time to meet each other and try to make her my wife if everything when I'll be there, will be good like I think. 1. About the proofs that USCIS ask to have...can I use present's receives, letters and other stuff like that, coming from before the day that we met in person? 2. Can I say at the POE that I'm coming to visit my friend? 3. I have problems to find the prices of all the k-1 procedure....how much is going to be +or-? 4. How long I have to wait in Italy afther that I'll have my 1st trip in the USA? Thank U This is pure speculation on my part, but I would assume that before you are eligible to apply for a K-1 visa, you will need to be married. The Catch-22 here is that I don't think the USCIS is that keen on you entering the U.S. for the (stated) purpose of getting married. If you go to www.amazon.com, you may find some helpful books about your situation and how you may proceed. Also, it doesn't hurt (other than in your wallet) to contact an immigration lawyer. This may be something that's better done by your significant other here in the US, since a U.S. lawyer is probably better versed in this country's immigration laws. Good luck!
