I tried that Sprint card and it didn't give me a good rate to a JA cellphone. It was about .18-.20 a minute, and it cost m elike $20 to buy it. is that the card you use?

Yes, didn't know what the rate was to Jamaica though sad.gif

Do remember that with this offer though, the rates are halved....

In theory, Jengs, yes. But, I have read of many with valid visitor's visa being turned away at the POE for lack of ties to their home country due to filing the K visa.

I cannot tell you how much I feel I need to warn you about not doing what you asked about. From all I have read, it is almost overwhelmingly bad news in the end. I would not wish that heartache on anyone.

With a valid VISTOR'S VISA, or on the VWP?

I have not personally heard of someone with a B2/visitor's visa being turned away though....

CONGRATS!!!!!!

You need to start gathering your documents for interview, such as non-impediment form, police record, immunization records. You need to gather all the evidence you submitted with the original form and any other stuff you have such as phone records, ticket stubs, letters, photographs, emails and western union receipts.
Your case will be transferred to NVC and then to the Embassy in Kingston who will then send your fiance packet 3 which contains details for the medical etc....

You may get a better response in the Yardie thread.

Hey guys...don't mean to rain on everybody's parade, but I was reading back a few pages and a topic that is very real to me came up, and honestly, a lot of your answers have surprised me. The topic was what would you do if you were faced with a 3 year ban. I saw several folks say that they probably wouldn't do a LDR for 3 years...well...quite honestly, that puzzles me a bit. For this reason only: everyone up here is either wanting to marry or already married. We've all found people that we say we will pledge our love to forever. That we will stand by our SO's side in good times and bad, yadayadayada. I've definitely learned that life will definitely throw you curve balls, and no matter how well you plan your life and what kind of decisions you make, things may not always go as we would like. Does that mean that we abandon our dreams, our desires, what we believe to be ordained and blessed by God? In my opinion (and I stress, this is just my opinion), I would say I hope not. What happens when you'fre living together as man and wife and you go through a dfficult spell...as many marriages do...that can't be fixed in a month, or 2, or hell even 8? Do you leave, or do you fight for what you believe to be right and good? I feel so passionately about this because the 3 year ban was imposed upon us because my fiance (now my husband) admitted that he had smoked months earlier (his blood tests and drug tests came back clean). At that moment is seemed that our lives were over, and for a while, I'm not even going to lie, I felt like I wouldn't be able to do it. I went back and forth with what being in this relationship would mean from that moment foward, because the whole scope of it had changed. I made a deliberate, and prayerful decision to continue in this relationship because I truly believed that he was the man that God had created for me. And while I resented him for a long time, we eventually worked through it, and I promise you that I could not be happier. This time apart has truly given us time to grow as people and as a couple. We have truly had time to think about what it is we truly want from this each other, this relationship, for our lives. I think when we were doing the K1, we got swept up in everything that was going on==it occurred so quickly (6 months from start to finish). We married nearly a year later. Now, our time for re-filing will be coming up soon. And we are much more focused, and more prepared. I believe that God definitely had a plan for us, and trust me when I say that as a result of what happened to us, I definitely had to learn that I would learn to follow HIS plan--not my own. We have put everything in God's hands, and I believe that we will be blessed this time around. I originally considered moving down to JA after the denial first occurred, but after talking over everything and trying to plan for our future we decided that it would be better if I stayed here. So, we do our best, like everyone else, to make the most of our visits and phone calls. We're hopeful about our future, and we appreciate and feel so much better about one another as spouses. I pray that no one ever has to experience what we had to---but if it came to the worse, I hope that you all would not abandon the ones that you love so dearly because things did not occur as we hoped they would. I know this was a long post guys, but I had to speak what was on my heart. Everyone up here has given me so much strength and encouragement, whether you know it or not...that's why I have continued to come back. Now, I want 2 enjoy all of these videos, so talk to you soon!

Love you,
Tamisha


Hey Tamisha,

I thought about you when the question arose earlier. I think most people just said how they truly feel. Lets face it. Not everyone here is in the strongest of relationships and we are all just human. Being faced with something like a 3 year ban can be quite difficult for some. It could also be a sign from God to LEAVE. I know we all love our mates but things like this would cause anyone to question what their next move could be. Not everyone has the time or money to continue a 3 year LDR. Some may not be married and when faced with something as serious as this in your LDR, and then not knowing your fiance for more than a year (maybe a month of that face to face time) the 3 year ban can be very detrimental. The relationship is too fresh and young to withstand something like this. And honestly in some cases maybe thats a good thing.


I agree with Marlita. And I guess the reason why if my SO got a three year ban for drug use I wouldn't wait is that I would have DRUMMED it into his head that he shouldn't admit ANYTHING and how important it was that he shouldn't smoke (I used the SO example because I've never even smoked a cigarette in my life lol!)
And YES, I sincerely believe GOD often says something when these things happen, I see a PROLONGED separation on here and I honestly believe it's happened so the woman will come to her senses and LEAVE...But who am I to say that's what is happening.

Marcel's Mom passed away eithr yesterday or today. She is trying to find out if there is ANYWAY possible for him to go home to JA to attend the funeral and not have to go through the initial process of having to file a K3 or IR/CR again!

Bwoy, I really feel it for them. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE keep them in your prayers today and going forward. If anyone knows of any route they may be able to go please post and let her know.

I told her to call the 202# tomorrow and if that does not work the Dept. of Homeland Security or/and the State Dept. Someone has to have a heart to at least hear her out!

I know we all believe in the power of prayer...and I know we all know ANYTHING & EVERYTHING is possible through the Lord. So please keep Lawny & Marcel in your thoughts and prayers.

Blessed love,

Hi everyone
I posted this somewhere else and was directed here, so I post again. I am new to the visa process and have read the guides and faq's
I have a few questions.......but you should first know that we are not applying until late January/early February '09 and please forgive me if the info is posted somewhere and I don't see it.

1. Does Jamaica accept co-sponsors? And if so, anyone have experience with it?

2. I don't see anything asking if there will be a co-sponsor on the I-129 or I-134, should the co-sponsor be filling out everything I do or just the I-134?

3. Does the co-sponsor need to be living in my household? Mine will be my mother who does not live with me and my 2 kids, but does live in the same town.

4. At what point would the I-864 be used, or how would I determine that> Will the USCIS or consulate let me know?

5. At this point the only evidence we have is photos with dates, iteineraries, receipts from Jamaica....will that be enough to establish evidence or should we work on getting him an email account now?

6. At what point does the police record and medical exam come in? And how do we get them?

7. What about government assistance (specifically section 8)? If you have section 8 housing subsidy (but are using a co-sponsor) will that be grounds for denial? Should I ditch it now and get a place with my parents?
THanks for any and all help.


Welcome!!!
1.Yes, Jamaica does accept co-sponsors
2.Co-sponsor only fills out I-134
3. No, the co-sponsor does not need to live in the same household. However, they must list any dependents they have in their household. Ie, if you had a little brother who your mother is financially responsible for, your mother would have to show she had enough money to support that child as well.
4. That evidence should be good to go, but with Jamaica, more is DEFINITELY better!
5. When he goes for his interview. He has to get his police record from the Jamaica COnstanbulary force in Kingston, but you don't need to worry about that JUST yet!
The Embassy will give him a letter to book his medical. Be aware he will either need a non-impediment to marry form or a divorcee decree if he's been married before
6. Govt assistance is not an issue since you have a co-sponsor.

I'm sure your parents (and maybe you!) have heard the saying 'If yuh cyaa ketch Kwaku, yuh ketch him shirt'...A direct reference to Kwaku Anancy....I heard that 'unu', 'yaso' and 'deso' were all African words.
I think that's why Jamaicans are so resistant to change for the majority, you do things the way you were raised and never deviate.....I think it was done to preserve the culture we could remember...

Some one in my has a whole manuscript tracing back our family to the Ashanti's of Ghana. Maroons are a direct decedent of the Ashanti's. I know you heard that the Maroons were warriors... well, the Ashanti's back in the days were fierce in Ghana. They too were warriors who were hard to defeat.

A friend of mine who is also a Maroon, remembers her granny saying words that she knew did not derive from any English words she knew. When she asked my cousins what some of those words meant he was able to translate for her. And she said that the translation made sense in the context that her grandmother used it.

In Ghana they talk about Anansie the spider too....They refer to him as Kwaku Anansie....same stories, same message. There are so many similarities that its crazy...I mow understand even more why roots reggae speaks highly on Africa. It's pretty cool.

More on a serious note:

I was not clear. I corrected myself. I am sorry if you are taking my not being clear so personally. I am use to talking to people who have religious ceremonies or "engagement" parties depending on where you are from (which you would not be signing a marriage certificate) and I should have made that clear since in the Caribbean we don't usually have those type of things.

The information was corrected in a timely manner and I like all of you are going through the process. No one here is a true expert or we would not be on this site looking for support. I am not use to posting on this forum, and again should have made myself more clear in the distinction between ceremony and marriage.

JAG, I appreciate your passion, and I see how me not being clear could have caused a problem BUT I don't see how you responding to me in that tone would help. The information u provided was good and right on time. Thank you.

I must say though... Your character is well needed in the judicial system...you would make a great attorney if you aren't one already. good.gif Thanks for the correction! Its well appreciated. I know now NOT to write responses in haste. There is a lesson learned in every situation. star_smile.gif

Trelawny...Thanks for the info!


I must admit, re-reading my response, I could have been less 'hard' lol..... I do apologize for that, I know you did not post maliciously smile.gif
I hope our dialogue will most definitely re-reinforce the message to remain single until on US soil when filing K1!!

Lita/JAE/Honey/Ashante;

This is what happened to my friend;

She was given bad advice. She got married after her visa was approved and in hand. She had a large religious ceremony. Noone told her about a civil ceremony in Jamaica and I had no idea she had done this until after the fact. When she came to the states with her fiance (against better advice) they were told to register their overseas marriage at the local courthouse where they lived (which is what they did)...well, guess what marriage certificate they turned in with the AOS...the one from Jamaica. The courthouse gave them something, but they were told not to submit that. That was 2006. She still waiting on AOS.

4.11)...My alien fiancee has been issued a K-1 visa. Can we get married abroad and then come back together to the US with the K-1?
A...No. The alien must NOT be married when s/he enters the US on a K-1 visa. Also, if using the K-1, the couple must marry in the US within 90 days of the alien entering on the K-1.
(FAQ Note: Some couples arrange to have a non legal ceremony prior to the fiance(e) leaving their home country, in order to satisfy the wishes of family, or to have a celebration if the family is unable to travel to the US for a wedding.

This is a CONSUL BTW

User Asked: Philip - Does the marriage have to be held in the United States after approval? Can the petitioner come to the Philippines to get married and will that marriage be valid in the U.S. and satisfy the K-1 question of marriage? Or will there still have to be another marriage once they come into the United States?

CONSUL: Philip
If you have been issued a K-1 visa DO NOT get married before leaving for the U.S. You must get married within 90 days of arriving in the U.S. but if you marry before you leave then you are entering the U.S. as a spouse of an American Citizen. You have been issued a visa stating that you are a fiancée of an American Citizen. If you are the spouse, then you are entering the U.S. illegally

1. Can I marry my fiancé(e) overseas and still bring him/her on a K-1 visa.
A: No. K-1 visas are available only to persons who are planning to be married. If the marriage occurs, you will have to file an I-130 Relative Visa petition for your spouse. The one exception to this rule is that if the marriage was religious or social ceremony only, and the marriage wasn't registered with the local government, a K-1 visa may be issued.

If you choose to apply for a K1 visa, DO NOT marry before the visa is approved and you enter the U.S. Marrying will make you ineligible for the fiancé visa and you will have to restart the process to apply for a K3 visa.

There is a girl on the Sub-Saharan forum who filed a K1 and is in Ghana right now preparing for her wedding in a few days. If you have anyone in JA that can help you with the planning, you can start collecting all the materials you need. It is very possible! I say go for your dream wedding good.gif

Please don't tell me you're still supporting him??????

Let him go find a job and help support HIS child!!

I would deliberately NOT get divorced, he can't lift conditions on his own if you aren't divorced devil.gif

He is on a conditional 2 year. status has not been adjusted. Honestly i am so hurt that they would use me like that that i want to send him back.

I can imagine.
What I would do is call the State Department line and get an address to send a letter to.
I would formal withdraw my sponsorship and also tell them exactly what happened.
If you believe your husband is guilty of marriage fraud, include that and cite reasons why.

So sorry this is happening to you.

I bought my husband up here Feb 08, thinking what we really had was a marriage. Come to find out that we really didnt. Once he located his family and established relationships he moved a couple states away. What can I do, could i send him back? I discovered that he neither his family care for americans and thought all types of things of me. I feel horrible. I bought him up here, and has supported him since because he still hasnt worked.

Wow, I am so sorry to hear this.
Have you filed AOS yet??
If you haven't he'll be out of status after the K3 is up.

Dammit....I just had to call the job I'm NOT taking and tell them, I HATED having to do it, but he was really nice about it!
Told me he was sorry I didn't take the job, but if ever it worked out for me, he'd be more than happy for me to give him a call....

Good luck! My sister-in-law LOVES Ross in South Carolina. The best I have up here like it is TJ Maxx. But why do you need suits if you are working from home??

I applied in Sears for a part time job doing photography, they have two people leaving next month they say. They also think they will have no problem slotting in with my schedule at the other job I'm starting.

We have discussed him bartending part-time as a second job and that I am fine with. It's just that any full-time job has got to have some benefits.

I am so happy my husband's insurance is really good.
It meant I didn't have to give a second thought to any benefits offered.....
