K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresSo confused- DS230/DS160?

 i dont know if is the same in united kingdom but i found this in the embassy of my country

 

All visa applicants under the following categories (K1-K2, K3 and K4) must complete, electronically, the form DS-160 (on line Non-Immigrant Visa Application).

The DS-160 plus the form DS-156K are the only forms that you need to fill out for the visa interview if your are applying under the following categories: K-1, K-2, K-3 and K-4. These forms replace previous forms such as the DS-230, DS-156 and DS-157

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresIncluding Translation with Proof

Of course you may know this already, but proof of relationship is completely different than proof of meeting within 2 years. So many get RFEs for that.


RedicentMale02013-07-25 22:32:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresI-134a

Thats all good advice. I will just add that if you are not going to wait until you have a few pay subs under your belt, at least wait until you start the job. Get a letter from the head of the department you're working for. A letter with official letterhead stating your position, annual salary and that it is permanent work, the department head would sign it stating their position and inviting any follow up questions to them. The more official the better. And get your sponsor to sign an I-864 and show income over 125% of poverty level for AOS, not just the 100% for k-1 visa. Have all of this available at the interview.

 

By the way, how much evidence of ongoing relationship did you send with your I-129F petition?


RedicentMale02013-07-21 21:09:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresEmergency Situation

K-1 visa is valid 6 months from the day of her medical, not interview.

For example, if you take medical on December 22, it will be valid through June 22.

 

Hope you are on a happy flight now star_smile.gif

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresDifferent kind of income question

It sounds like you are still self-employed. What is a 'real' business? Do you have quarterly profit/loss statements? Those plus proof of your business and half ownership along with bank statements showing your monthly deposits may work. Provide documentation that you have been in this new business and making that income since last Oct. The problem with being self-employed is that they may want to see the income on a tax return which shows yours actual total income amount.

 

my fiance is also self- employed..

and we're applying in the phiippines...do they accept this?

or would look for a co cponsor...

 

this is my greatest concern

 

if self-employed do we need w-2's?

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresG-325A Employment History
My fiancé is self-employed/freelance also. I just put "freelance editor and cinematographer (see attached)" and we attached a copy of his translated resume. The last part may be overkill, but we got our NOA2 in 25 days.

Don't overthink it.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresI-134 form (Affidavit of support) questions.. needs help pls..

Option 1:

 

Since they want you to attach the tax returns (2012 in this case), whatever you have on the 2012 tax return as your income (from 2 jobs from last year) should be on your I-864 (AOS) Part 6 Line 13 (a) and also on Line 10. The fact that you have a different job combination in 2013 does not have to be on the form as you do not have a tax return for 2013 yet, anyway.

Note only 2012 tax return is required. Returns for 2011 and 2010 (second and third most recent years) are optional. I had included all three of them myself.

 

Option 2:

 

Use letters from your two current employers to substantiate your estimated income in 2013. That estimated 2013 income  should be in Line 10 and also Line 13 (a). In that case you still need 2012 tax return amount to match with what you put in Part 6 #13 b (in this case).

 

My recommendation would be Option 1. You do not need to mention 2013 jobs and income because it is not over yet.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresK-1 process with an attorney or not?

I am using a lawyer, even though I'm sure I am capable of doing it myself. My lawyer has been extremely helpful and is charging a reasonable price. If your gonna use a lawyer I would shop around and yelp them or something. If your on some type of time limit for getting a fiance visa meaning like you would want to get it asap, recommend using a lawyer to avoid any chance of filing your application wrong or any set backs etc. Plus, the lawyers will have a better chance of understanding the terminology as well as understanding how to deal with changes any time the government decides to change any process of how applications are filed etc. For example, my lawyer just in formed me that the gov. on sept. 2 or 3rd changed the matter in which they are accepting forms concerning the paper work that is needed for my fiance to get his interview for his fiance visa, since we already received our no2. She told us that she needs to wrap in brain around the new changes before sending in our new paperwork so the fact that my lawyer needs to wrap her brain around the new changes, indicates that I made a wise decision to hire a lawyer to deal with these unexpected changes. However,  there are obviously many people on this site who have filed themselves and received their visa successfully, I just didn't want to take a chance. 

 

Best of luck with your decision and I hope everything goes smoothly!

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresA change of heart...and country?

Have you familiarised yourself with the requirements to bring your foreign spouse to the UK? Its got a lot tougher since July 2012 with minimum income requirement for previous 6 months before applying and no option for a co-sponsor etc.. Its harder to bring a spouse to the UK then for him to bring you to the US.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresPast Mental Health and Drug Use Problems

Amazing! no doubt you overcome those challenges in life and you're a great inspiration to others. congrats! good.gif

 

By the way, i just have a few questions, did the doctor put a classification on your passport when you had your medical exam? I read on one of your link the two classifications (Class A and B) on medical conditions. Also, on your interview did the consul officer brought up your past history of mental health problem and about the drug thing?

 

Keep up the good job!

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresAoS co-sponsor question

Thank you so much!  That's very good to know.  At any point do they look into your bank account & debts, or is it all based on the salary and tax return?  I'm not sure what, if any, supporting evidence a sponsor must submit.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresAoS co-sponsor question

Hi everyone!  I just joined this forum and it's already been an amazing resource.  I've been on here for a few hours browsing the forum and it's great to see so many people going through the same thing I am (or not great, since it would be much better if we could all just be with the people we love).  

 

I have a question I didn't see addressed anywhere.  For the past year, I've been working with a temp agency on and off because I needed the flexibility to go spend a few months with my boyfriend in the UK while we were doing long-distance.  Before that, I was a student in the UK, so my taxes show a much decreased income for last year.  I'm now back in California and applying for jobs, but we'd like to submit the 1-129F in November to get things started as quickly as possible.  If I do manage to get a job with more than the required salary, I can file the Affidavit of Support on my own, but will that be ok with a brand new job and low 2012 taxes?  Is there an amount of time you must have held your job and have pay stubs?

 

My plan all along was to have my parents as the co-sponsors, but I've recently learned that due to mistakes on a previous tax form, they are paying the IRS about $3,000 in back taxes.  They make $80,000+ jointly, but also have some debt they're addressing.  My question is - do they take into account both a sponsor's bills and debts or is it just the incoming salary?  Does the sponsor need to display a certain amount in their bank account?  The back taxes will be paid off this year, but is that going to be a huge problem?  Do I need to wait until they are square with the IRS to file?  

 

I'd hate to file with my parents co-sponsoring my fiance and go through the whole process only to be rejected.  But if they only take salary into account then I'd rather have them co-sponsor than wait the potential months it may take to secure myself a job.

 

Thank you all for your help!!  Really happy to be a part of this community.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresHow to set a wedding date (during a K-1 process)?

I'm also going the route of having a courthouse wedding so that it can fit around the approval of the visa.  Then once we're married and able to stay in the same country, we will start planning a wedding with our family and friends which will probably take place a year or 1.5 years after the courthouse date.  It's just way too much for us to spend money visiting each other this year, file the paperwork, and plan our wedding all at the same time (I think I would explode from stress) so this seemed like a great option.
