K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresNote about including the Beneficiery's BC or Passport
Alex+R, did you originally send your own birth certificate?

I sent in my birth certificate as indicated by the requirements and was never asked for my fiance's birth certificate.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresSignature question
I think the CSC is starting to get its act together... It'll just take a little while longer for the IMBRA fiasco to totally calm down. This is coming from someone that had to wait a LONG while...

I pray for those that are still waiting. :)
If patient, the wait does wonders in bringing an already loving couple even closer. This will probably be one of the first of many hurdles you cross together. I hope you all fare well.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedurestime between NOA2 and NVC
I suggest you send an email to NVC...
for info/suggestions on how: http://www.visajourn...mp;#entry565944

I think you guys will fall with the next batch that gets sent to the NVC. I received my snail mail NOA2 on the 28th of October. I called NVC every 2 days and emailed every week. I called on the 13th to hear it still wasn't received. Then on the 14th I received the reply with a case number to my second email (sent on the 8th) that stated my case was received.

I suggest BOTH calling and emailing. Give them about a week to give you a response to your email. I think they wait a few days to see if anything turned up before responding.

I emailed them immediately after receiving the response, asking if my case was sent to the london consulate. I received a reply today saying that it was (although I had already confirmed it on via a phone call last week).

Good Luck! :)

i hope this isn't confusing... i'm not feeling well today

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & Procedureshow long take k3

The K3 is dead, plus as you are married 2 years, the IR-1 is far superior, he'll get a ten year greencard upon entry. In theory, it shouldtake6-8 months, but Muslim men often get stuck in AP (security checks) after the interview.


Penguin_ie is right :yes: it took my dad 1 1/2 years to get off AP :angry: . Man was that hard for me and my family :(
the thing was he overstayed in iraq for 6 years and he had a green card.

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresMy CASE in NVC NOW help me

First of all, study the guide properly. Especially, in your case, study that EZ guide which will digest faster for you.

First question to ask is to get your NVC Case#. If ready, provide both the petitioner's and beneficiary's email addresses without the spelling mistake.

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresRFE AT NVC
Hi all,

Now I called NVC today to see what are the documents that are missing. They were 4 of them now i will explian what are they

RFE:
1: I-846 for pettioner: now i sent one for my co-sponser and did not send one for me because i though i didnt need one

2: original marrige Cert.: i sent my translated one because i thought it was certifed :bonk: . I have it and can send it.

3: original BC for benificary: I sent a translated one :bonk: . but i dont have it she has it in IRAQ :( now she can send it

4: PCC: I sent a letter stating that this document is not avilable in Iraq but they said it is avialable. Now she is working on it to get one.

now could i send RFE 1 and 2, and tell NVC that my wife will bring RFE 3 and 4 with her? Or should i Wait for her to send it to me and then send it to NVC in one package? which one is better.

Any help will be appricated.......
Thanks in advance.....

Hi all,

Just recently found out that I have a RFE at NVC. :angry: but anyway I found out what I did not send by my self (no check list yet). Hopefuly thats my RFE.... now my question is for part 5 Q: 21 "If you are currently married, enter "1" for your spouse" what should I put 1 or 0. She does not live with me. Also I have a sponser that is sponsering her only, not me and the sponser, since I didn't make enough last year. I got married this year.

Thanks in advanced.

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresRFE General Question
Please read all I mean every single word carefully in all of the guidelines @ VJ. So you don't have to get one..... you know I got 4 RFE at NVC stage :angry: and now I am mad but if I came across this website at my NOA 2 I would of been done by now. There is one thing to do READ THE RIGHT STEPS and you'll be fine. Now just to let you know it will probably take me until December to send in ALL the missing Documents because I am currently waiting for the PCC. by the time it finishes it will probably be by the end of the month. Also they have to send it by mail or a close relative to me which will take about a week or so. So I should finish with everything by February all because i didn't pay close attention to the guidelines I was in a hurry to get a interview. So to all people in any stage PLEASE READ CAREFULLY :yes: . But like always God is Great.

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresNVC second RFE
Hi all

Now on 01-18-11 i sent the first RFE package which inclulded the PCC, Orignal MC, Official copy of BC, and my AOS package.

now on 2-7-11 got a second RFE which is about the BC and MC. what they are telling me the BC and the MC are not orignal. i told them to look at them agine and they told me it will take 10-15 days for review.

Now if they are not accepted what are my options to get this fixed or sent out to the embbassy? also can i request the case to go to the emmbassy for processing? also what is the best time to call them agine to see what they are going to do? Also can i go thru the DCF route if they cant complete the case?

any advise will be appreciated.
and thanks in advance.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Proceduresslightly worried

I sent in my forms and got the notice that they had been recieved. My date is November 28th on the recipt. So far that is all i have recieved from the California center, only the initial letter with the recipt number and and saying they got it. Should i have gotten something else yet??? I was wondering because i saw that on peoples timelines it seemed like they had recieved packets and things. Maybe it hasnt been long enpugh. im new at this, but i want to make sure im doing it right. :blush:
thanks.



Nope, nothing to receive until the NOA2 approval comes (unless there is a RFE before that). My NOA2 came 88 days from the date I mailed the petition. You are getting close! (F)





Thank you!!
