K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresPOE

hello vjers family.. i would like to ask if i will be having a problem if my point of entry is in JFK new York and i will have a stop over in LAX in Los Angeles? Thank you..



if you have a stopover in LAX, then LAX is your POE. you want have any problem. you will just need to pass immigration and all those interview in lax.. with what i read here in VJ. please do make sure you have enough time 3hrs atleast in LAX to give tme for the immigration..


other option is take a DELTA or AA flight.. MNL-NRT-JFK so that you will just do the immigration in JFK...

most likely you should be okay. The CO or immigration is concerned if your relationship is true. as long as the divorce is final. your divorce is legit. relationship is legit... just be prepared if the CO asked for explanation though.. give your fiancee all the right info

dubai is a nice place. you can have your fiance visit you there <3 met my husband there.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresRequest for Expidtition on getting K1 Visa approval

 
Yes, lets clog up the system by applying for something that will be deny.
 
Don't you realize that making USCIS do useless work means that real expedites will take longer while USCIS is dealing with unapprovable expedite request?
 
If I dump a bunch of useless work on your desk, how much of your real work will you get done?




Chill.. Have you heard of such things as prioritizing.. Uscis knows when to expedite or not...
The OP ask for opinions and options.. If he gets expedited good for him. He exhausted all options to be with the woman he loves. Who are you to stop him,, besides its just a request...If others request for expedite and got decline too bad..

A lot of people are quick to advise that its a no.. True enough its a no if based on the guidelines..,

Its not fraudulent to request for expedite he is not violating any rules... It is a mere request...

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresRequest for Expidtition on getting K1 Visa approval

OP i know majority of us will advise you that there is no expedite... just try to file for expedite. if its not approve then atleast you try.

as for the others who are judging your girl getting pregnant if its your or not...if its scam or not.. dates are confusing... you will know and should know that yourself.. the people here are just concern and are entitled to our opinion..

 

goodluck

You can really try. Submit it with the request for expedite or call uscis..It will be hard on the mother if she is alone. Losing someone is not easy..

My condolences.

Based on research I would say you are VERY LIKELY to get an expedite. Medical reasons is part of the cases and you should definitely file.


No need for medical... The baby passed away :(

Yes her son is listed I - 129F... We are just not sure if the USA will require any release forms from the father... We can not locate him and his name is on the birth certificate and the child's last name is the same as the father.

Thanks for your help..




*Be absolutely certain you have a passport for the child. You will need this beginning with the medical, then for the interview.

Philippinesanybody who filed an annulment case in the philippines?
We went through same thing and it took us 14 months. The attorney we used was honest and that in its self is important as many attorneys will maliciously& deliberately lie and take advantage of you. I will give you his name and E-Mail address so if you wish to contact him. His fee was 100,000 Php + 3,000 for each court appearance. His name is " Alex Acain" you can reach him at : Alexander Llanes Acain, Jr. Esq. [alexacain@gtalawphil.com] Be also prepared to deal with the Philippine Court system. Its slow, inefficient and not always honest. We had to pay off an City Prosecuting Attorney, he boldly asked in front of everyone for his pay off not to object to our motion. I found this is very common. Unbelievable! but true.

Good to use TSA locks. If customs decide they want to look inside and you have regular locks (non TSA) they will just cut them off.

I even said to her that cases were being accepted that were in January and febuary and all she said was "theres nothing I can do". I swear to god this better be BS! or else I'm calling off the K-1 and were moving to England and doing a K-3 because there is no freakin way that its right we should have to wait 7 months when some get theres in 3-4 and when I call them on it they just say "what do you want us to do about it". Absolute BS!!!!

Don't feel alone, its extremely frustrating. Apparently these are not real people like you and I. They have zero empathy but an abundance of apathy. I think no matter what there name is their initials is always B.S. ! We are just beginning a 6-7 month wait ourselves and I guess if there is a bright side its that you will feel like you really earned it when its over. We wish you the very best and remember here on VJ, you are never alone.

I sorry!!It was posted and I was not finish with it.Some reason the laptop went crazy and got part my message.

Information for the I-134/ I-184 Affidavit of Support:I currently meet the 100% poverty guideline with my full-time position.I make about $18,000 and I'm about $212 short for the I-184 guideline of 125% ($18,212).So,I started a part time job and added with my current pay it's about $20,000 to $21,000 a year.It be helpful if I can add that to my I-134 and I-184 without having to ask someone to co-sponsor for me.I don't see on the I-134 a place to add the second employment,but I do see that on the I-184.Should I just make a second form for the I-134 and attached it or should I just get a co-sponsor.



I am not an expert on this but I would check with the USCIS and see if you can add the totals from both jobs on (1) I-134 form and attach a letter from each employer to show how it breaks down.

What may want to do is follow the instructions set forth by USCIS as to what documents are required to produce with the I-134. It is quite straightforward about what you need. I included the link for you below. I hope this is of help to you.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reportsmy interview experience (VISA approved!)

my interview was scheduled for 6:30am and i was there by 5am (excited & nervous!) :P but there were a lot of people already so the guard started calling those with 6:15, 6:30 and 6:45 appointment and told us to sit (in order) on the benches in the immigrant area.

waited like an hour...just sitting and hungry so for those who are going for an interview, make sure you've eaten na. you can't bring any food or liquid inside but there's booth inside with some crackers and chips and bottled water you can buy.

by 6am, they started letting us in by 5's. they'll scan everything so make sure you dont bring any electronic gadget or you'll get in trouble with the security people. first line is to get your queue number where they asked for the DS forms, receipt and your photos. (don't worry there are guards and employees who'll assist you in every corner). once you have your queue number, sit and wait for your number to be flashed on the screen for the initial interview. it would tell you what window to go to. Or you could be called first for fingerprinting, they dont flash your number for this so be attentive. They'll call the names and tell you to fall in line by the window 16 or 33.

my initial interviewer was a Filipino guy, very friendly. he asked for my NBI, Birth Certificate, CENOMAR while asking questions like the name of my fiance; how me and fiance met; how many times he visited me; what his job is; if i've ever been out of the country, how long and what was the purpose of the trip; he asked if my fiance has ever been married and asked for the copy of the divorce decree; he asked if my fiance gives me money and i said no so he asked if i have a job and i said yes (maybe they'll ask for receipt for this so bring if you have any)then he asked for support of evidence which I've put in one folder (we have the competed I-134, 2010 & 2009 W2s, 1040 and most recent 6mos bank statements); then he asked if i have pictures, letter, emails, phone records so i started pulling them out of my folder but he didnt look at them and just said the consulate would be looking at them. And we're done, told me to wait for my name to be called for fingerprinting.

So i waited for another 30min and my name was called and was instructed to go to this window and bring my queue number. they call people here by 5's as well. That took like 5min only then you wait for your number on the screen for the final interview.

The consulate was an american guy who asked me first how i was doing. Everybody was just friendly on that day. He first asked me to raise my right hand and he swore me in. Then the questions began. Who is your petitioner? How old is he? Have you ever been married? Do you have children? Does he have children? How many times has he been married? Do you promise to marry him within 90 days of your arrival in the US? What does your fiance do for fun? (I said he likes singing so he asked me what songs he sings haha!) All the while he was busy looking and flipping through the pages of now a very thick file of the petition which i think includes the original I-129F petition, medical Result, and the forms you gave on that day. He also asked about my fiance's job and if i have plans to pursue a carrer in the US. He asked for our photos so i gave him all the pictures i brought, he looked at those then said, "Ok ma'am, looks like everything is ok, your visa has been approved! You can wait outside for your name to be called." I was soooo happy to hear those words!!! :dance: :dance: :dance:


Then you just wait again for your name and they'll give you the courier's form to fill out. Then you go home. So I took a cab to get home fast so I can call my fiance! This was one of my happiest days ever!! Wish everyone goodluck on their journey and hope you all get to experience a smooth interview as well.

This morning I checked Case Status to see if they finally had my case in the system. I logged in and it showed Post Decision Activity. Our I129f was approved. I really feel so blessed. Keep the faith my friends. I pray everyone has such a smooth process. The crazy thing is.....Edouardo doesn't believe me. He lives in DR where they experience many power outages so he has no internet access. I hope he can check soon and know Im not playing a bad trick on him.
I know he wants to believe me, but wants to see it with his own eyes. He never expected it to happen so fast.
