K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedurescan i go visit in this scenario??
You'll be fine - bring as much proof of ties as possible! Noa1, noa2, letter off employer, letter off landlord if you are renting, anything you can think of that helps your case that you will return. Have you planned a wedding yet?

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresOnce i have k1 can i still enter on my b2 or crewman visa?
Ok some confusion. Once I enter the USA when I'm ready to come live with my partner I won't be leaving the USA till I get ap or even much longer. I will have left my airline job too so won't even need the crew visa . What I was asking was for the period (4 weeks) immediately after I resign from my job and have interview at london embassy until I do my last day of duty. My job requires me to travel to USA on a c1/d I think the visa is called. I'm going to go with the majority and opt not to do these US flights for my final month of working just in case they look at the k1 and start fussing.
I could even resign 4 weeks before my interview but I don't want to take any chances, I'm going to earn the money while I still have a job as I've looked at US jobs market and doesn't seem like a great deal available for me.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresOnce i have k1 can i still enter on my b2 or crewman visa?
yes most of our flights are to USA to be honest, so when I do have my interview in London I will make a point of asking the officer there if I can still use my crew visa. If I get to the US with my crew and they insist on the K1 being activated, I'm afraid my crew will have to go home without me! x

I agree. I am pretty sure they can't stop you from working - but as you say, its not worth the risk! I'll just explain to work the situation and stay away from the US until I am ready to immigrate. Thanks for replies.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresOnce i have k1 can i still enter on my b2 or crewman visa?
Oh yes i know that! Sorry i meant in the time after my interview that i have the k1 and in my last month of employment at the airline i will swap off us-bound flights. I wont be leaving the us for a while after that. I am hoping to fly to san diego a couple of weeks after my last day with the company. Its going to be a sad/happy few weeks :/

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresOnce i have k1 can i still enter on my b2 or crewman visa?
Work a month after i resign. My employer will be fine, if im going to spend a life time in the usa i can go a month without it im sure! So interview can be delayed? Could be an option. I just keep reading stories of noa2 coming from csc in like 100 days and we are at day 50 now so trying to be as ready as possible. I wasnt expecting to have tp resign till february but if things stay the same could be sooner.
Many thanks. It is not imperative i still have my crew visa they will just roster me flights to other destinations (lagos- my fave!). Its cool!

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresOnce i have k1 can i still enter on my b2 or crewman visa?
Hmm maybe its something i can mention to them at the interview. The b2 im not too worried about but it would be beneficial to still use my crew visa while i work my notice. Any more opinions? How sure are you that they will cancel the b2?

Thanks!

Hi everyone, got a b2 and crew visa due to my job - just wondering if ill still be able to use these once k1 has been issued? Are there any rules we need to know about?

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresOverstay in a country (NOT) USA effect on K1 visa
They may not issue a police check if she didn't have legal status in Taiwan. I don't think it's a case of the embassy caring, more they want to know if she got into any trouble when she was there.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresHer official name is different than the name I call her
Agree with kitty... Catherine I mean! Lol

I'd definitely document it as Asian nicknames are pretty much never any way similar to their real names! I think they just chose them randomly :) consulate will get it though, just let them know :)
ClaireGioFemaleUnited Kingdom2012-08-16 03:25:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresHer official name is different than the name I call her
I'd document it under the other names used section. I'm sure the consulate in China is fully aware of the nickname culture over there x
ClaireGioFemaleUnited Kingdom2012-08-16 01:38:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresHer official name is different than the name I call her
I think there's a section asking for "other names used" or similar. Use her real name for the actual form questions though, as in the ones that are on her passport.

I bet you could get it straight away in person if she went to argentina. A year is not acceptable. The Italian embassy in London told me the same thing, so I went to Florence and got one in less than 5 minutes and for a few euros! For a lot of countries you'd just need to present a passport. Or the attorney idea? Good luck!

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresLong Stays As A Tourist
So he's basically been living in USA, working on a laptop from home and I's here majority of time? When he god home, how long would he stay and where to? If he is going home just to return to renew the stamp then maybe he might be better spending more time at home so it doesn't look as fishy... I spend 50/50 here. I'm aware they might refuse me one of these days but now our petition is filed I intend to stay at home a bit more before the big move.

God home = go's home. iPhone spellchecker sucks!
ClaireGioFemaleUnited Kingdom2012-08-16 12:02:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresLong Stays As A Tourist
If he never overstayed then no! I do the same thing, my job is in London fiancé here - i am In and out all the time on my b2. They do sometimes ask questions when they realize how frequently I travel here but I always have proof of my secure job in London. Now our petition is filed it might get more tricky but if you have never violated the terms of your visa I don't see any cause for concern.

Ok going to need an A4 supplement for this. In excess of about 50 I think.
Do I just type it out nearly and label what the supplement is?

Also for countries I've been to multiple times do I indicate the last year I was there?

Help!

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresK1 and B2 complicated case
Give it a shot... And bring hardcore evidence of your intent to return back to Canada after your visit - how long will you be in the US for if you do get the B2? I think you will have a much stronger case if you intend to stay 1-2 weeks rather than say a month or two. Good luck
ClaireGioFemaleUnited Kingdom2012-08-16 00:49:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresK1 and B2 complicated case
If they've denied you for B2 twice already before filing I-129f, there's a strong possibility you may be denied again. But like you said, if you can prove to the consulate on your B2 interview day that you indeed have strong ties to Canada (job, lease, noa1 perhaps) then they could well approve you... But you have to have a good strong case. Why were you denied last time and what's your home citizenship? Think I read it right... Correct me if I didn't!

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresVSC vs CSC
Hey we've just been approved (noa1 June 11th) and believe me it's just as frustrating for us - we envisioned at least 5 months to prepare (this is not something to rush after all). Getting it at 66 days is going to put a huge strain on us, financially and the burden of collecting overseas police checks on time.

You should move to the west coast anyway, you know it :)
