If the child is applying for a K2 visa, then YES he needs to be present at the interview.  He will also undergo the mandatory medical exam at SLEC.

As soon as you have your visa, you can fly to the US.

She can proceed with the interview but expect to get a 221g form for the lacking police clearance.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsInterview in 9 days

If you lived or worked in Hongkong for 6 months or more, they will ask for the police clearance.  If you cannot present it, they will give you a 221g form for it.  Unless they have it, they will not issue/approve your visa.


apple21FemalePhilippines2013-10-07 01:08:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsIf visa is denied, will the CO inform you right away???

Finger printing is done before the interview.

 

If denied, you will be informed right away.  You will be given a paper that says why your visa is denied.

Interview letter from US Embassy, London dated 16th Oct 2013, sent (postmark) 17th Oct 2013, received Saturday 19th Oct 2013, for an INTERVIEW DATE 18th Oct 2013 !!!

 

Thanks to divine intervention, I didn't miss it, I was approved and now happier than a rattlesnake in a bag full of mice, he certainly works in mysterious ways.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsWRONG AOS FORM FOR OUR INTERVIEW TOMORROW
There's no specific timeframe for 221g. Depends on how fast you can send the i134 to USEM. It can take a couple of days to weeks that's why we shouldn't make travel arrangements until we have the visa on-hand.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsAdministrative Processing Because of missing Documents???

Ok, but what about them asking for original I134 from me and my uncle and putting the case under AP?

 

I think the "AP" is just a temporary status because the interview was not completed.  It will change once you have complied with their requests.


apple21FemalePhilippines2013-10-31 23:12:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsAdministrative Processing Because of missing Documents???

He VJ members!

My fiancee went to the interview in Uzbekistan and they told her that she was missing "the original I-134" from the petitioner and the joint sponsor (I dont meet the financial requirement so my uncle is sponsoring).

The officer at the embassy did not keep her passport and told her to come back once she gets the original I-134. They didnt even look at our photos nor asked for any evidence of our relationship.

Now our case is under Administrative Processing. Can you please tell us if this is something We have to worry about? because I read tons of negative comments about Administrative processing on the internet and it wasnt something we were expecting sad.png.

Any comments would be greatly appreciated!







 

They will look at your photos/other evidences once she returns with the original i-134.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reportsdo i need to take w me my son during medical and interview?
If you don't want to bring your child to the US, that'fine. He can follow you at a later date.

Leaving your child behind (even if he's listed in the i129f) will not affect your case.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reportsdo i need to take w me my son during medical and interview?
Do you plan on bringing your son to the US? If yes, then he is also required to undergo the medical exam at SLEC (with fee of course) and he should be present during the embassy interview.

You need to have your son's original NSO birth certificate, vaccination record/baby book (if available) and passport.

I called NVC today. I finally got a case number  - yay! 

 

I was told  by the rep on the phone my case is in AP and it could take several weeks. I've searched around and this doesn't seem too uncommon but I can't help but be a little worried. Can anyone chime in and ease my mind a little? smile.png

Those of you with cases pending at NVC from CSC hang in there. My NOA2 was on 9/27

 

There's a thread about that here:  http://www.visajourn...-dept-of-state/

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsMe being jobless can effect the fiance visa?
The embassy does not care about the beneficiary being unemployed because the burden to prove financial capability is on the petitioner's end.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsReceived 221(g). What now??

You need to find someone (LPR or USC) whose income meets the poverty guideline requirements for K1, based on that person's number of household members plus your fiancee.

 

Once you've submitted the joint sponsor's affidavit of support documents to the embassy, they will review it, and if everything is in order, they'll issue the K1 visa (might take a couple of days to weeks though).

No.  For the xray, they will only look at the lungs.  They are more concerned with tuberculosis (TB).

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reportschild custody order

For Philippines, if a child is illegitimate, sole custody automatically goes to the mother.  There's no documentation or court order for that.

 

How can your son accompany you if he's in the Philippines?
