K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsSeptember 2010 K1 Filers
Hey guys,
I saw some of you being excited that you got through to tier2.... we did too, and got an email saying that we have to wait since our case is not emergency and we cant provide any proof that it is.... so basically when they get tired of us calling they put you through, give you your number (that you cant do anything with) and say wait 5 days... 5 days pass and they say....yyyps sorry... we cant help til its your turn.... so yeah Im not overjoyed about having the case number :D

But we did get our sweet senator Bob to react on our email, so we are sending out privacy release and hope he will check it.... well i guess he will if his office called us back :)

Good luck with today.... and new applications that are approved!!!! :)

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Proceduresestimated processing time?!?!?!
Hey guys.....

We are also the "lucky" waiting couple.... we still have patience though :).... BUT was wondering..... the previous times we called, the processing time was said to be 5 months.... after that we could call and then we would be sending a message "up" to whoever would be interested in it, since it got out of time frame... the 5 estimated months (yeah I knooow its just us interested in it, no one else LOL ),but anyways.... this polite guy said yes estimated time is 5 months, but to get out of estimated time its plus 32 days..... so now we are confused LOL..... all the previous employees said call one day after the 5 months are over.... so when do we call..... ?!?!?!.... OR THEY WILL SAY THE SAME IN THE 5 MONTHS AND 32 DAYS AGAIN? lol


so yeah, we are 5 months and 1 day waiting time :D

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Proceduresfamily and k-1 visa
hey,
There is not much advice you can get on it, to be honest. People who will not want to accept her, will not.... I would say that it also depends on her, to be honest. If she is one that is lovable and nice and treating your parents as if they are hers- I think it should be less of a problem. In general Ide say probably they wont like the short time you have know each other guys.... not that Im better... so not pointing fingers.... but yeah... time is the proof that your parents and family will need... gotta be patient and loving and give them the time that they need to take it as it is.... all you can do is be there when they want to communicate... time will make it easier.... I sure would wanna be the one telling my parents that... so that they dont get it to know from someone else..... also the kids.... no matter what is their age.... if thats what you believe is right- go for it and present it as such.... Im lucky to have awesome mother-in-law to be :)

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresInteresting about I-134
Do the Same Income Requirements Apply to Form I-134 as Apply to Form I-864?

No. The 125 percent of the federal poverty guideline minimum income requirement, the most recent year's tax return, and other requirements only apply when Form I-864 is needed. Applicants presenting Form I-134 will need to show that their U.S. sponsor's income is 100 percent of the federal poverty guideline.

I believe Ive read it was 125%.... lol

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresCan i visit my USC fiance while waiting for the K1?
First, Im not a 3rd world country :D I thought that was a cute comment, but anyways.....

as said... it depends on the mood of the officer.... when I flew in I had to write the little form where it asked about visas (denied, received...bla bla bla) so I wouldnt lie on that piece of paper, second it has nothing to do with K1 process... it will in no way affect that... its only a matter of what happens if the officer thinks that you are coming for staying and you need to have money on hand to go back the same day..... We called the customs, USCIS has nothing to do with it, its not them letting you in the country in the airport..... We talked with the customs guy and his supervisor in JFK (new york, so Ide say they know what they talk about.... it can happen that someone got it, but somebody else could be more unlucky.... so we made the decision to save money and fire it off when we meet instead of not knowing if we even meet :) But yeah thats my opinion ;)
Chris & NikaFemaleLatvia2011-03-10 15:28:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresCan i visit my USC fiance while waiting for the K1?
Hey,
I wanted to do the same, but I was strongly advised by the customs ( I called JFK airport customs)... the answer was.... It all depends on the mood of the customs guy you will talk to... you basically need to have enough evidence that you come back to your home country that he lets you in.... I planned on getting a letter from my employer saying that Im coming back, the airport customs still wasnt sure though.... I think its more of a question if they let you in US (or you spent money in vain).... not the interview..... I calculated that Ide rather save the money in case they dont let me in.... remember that if they dont let you in US you have to have money to get ticket for the next plain heading back to where you came from.... so yeah.... I gave in and followed the "strong suggestion" of not risking....

US Citizenship General DiscussionOut of the country part in-400
Hello guys,

Just a silly question about the part in n-400 where it says to state how many days I have been outside the US in last 5 years. I am filling this application based on marriage to US citizen and I haven't been in US 5 years yet.. Do I have to count all the days that I was out of the US before I even got here?! I am thinking just to include the days after AOS... I guess... Any help will be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Removing Conditions on Residency General Discussionfilling the form in part 3 -I-751
Hi,

Just wondering if I am understanding the question right. "Have you resided at any other address since you became a permanent resident?" This means if me and my husband lived anywhere else other than the address we are living in now, right? Then why in the world is it in the middle of all these criminal questions?? I think i don't get it right or something.. wacko.gif Thanks!

Removing Conditions on Residency General DiscussionLost Passport
I just sent in my papers to VSC yesterday. I hope I get NOA1 soon, because if I have to get a stamp in a passport, I am dead sad.gif( In July I sent in all the paperwork required to get a new pasport that has my married name on it. And guess what?? They sent me my new passport through FedEx and I never got it!! They swear up and down that it was delivered - left at my front door 3 weeks ago... And how can they deliver something that important without a signature?? It looks like I will not find it and it takes at least 5 months to get a new passport. Is there any other way I can get this stamp on something else? I don't even want to think of what would happen If I'd loose my job... crying.gif

Removing Conditions on Residency General DiscussionAny recent approvals from VSC?
Hi,

Just wondering if there are any recent approvals of i-751 from VSC. It has been 6 months since they have received it. It hasn't been "touched" since our biometrics appt. It used to be that it took them around 6 months to get it done. Is that still the case? tongue_ss.gif

Have a Great Holiday!!!
