I would say that mine was very accurate. Even considering that I got an RFE, I still got my NOA2 by the predicted date!

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresCatch-22?

To question 1: be truthful and say that the mother is dead. That way, if for some bizarre reason they check the death record (chances being .00000000001% that they would) you can just set it straight. A lie is always the wrong choice in this process. Which brings me to...

question 2: What were you thinking? No, you cannot forge your fiance's signature. Yes, the signature must be original. Overnight her the forms and have her send them back to you. It's the only way to do it right, and if someone can tell the signature was forged you could be in big trouble. You probably should not be admitting to your illegal activity on a public forum though...



Well said! Plus it will anger the rest of us who did things the RIGHT and LEGAL way!

I had to put that both my mother and father were deceased. The best bet is the truth. Also, by signing for your fiancee you are committing visa fraud!

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresSome guidance about timeline terms

Hi All,

We are obviously new to all of this. I understand some of the terms used in timelines. One term I'm not quite clear on is touched. Would appreciate some guidance with this!


--------------------
06/2004: Met Daywalker online
06/2004: Daywalker expressed interest in me I declined.
06/2004 - 11/2006: We remained friends being there for each other
11/17/06: Daywalker reveals to Icesickle that she wants to date him. Icesickle accepts!
01/13/06: discussed K-1 Visa
01/26/07: Daywalker visits USA(all the way from NZ, bless her heart) :D
02/10/07: Daywalker asked Icesickle to marry her, Icesickle said yes
02/12/07: Icesickle asks Daywalker to marry him with a ring. Daywalker says yes!
02/16/07: Icesickle and Daywalker file marriage license.


"Touched" just means that the processing date changes where you see the status of your K1 visa application. You will have to register for USCIS case status online once you receive your NOA1!

Welcome and good luck!

First of all welcome to VJ! I too met my fiance on the internet and I have been to see him twice. You do have to meet in person at least once and be sure to take many photos with you two together, with family and friends, and in front of landmarks or even with a newspaper with the current date. Also keep ALL of your receipts!

I was under the impression that for the I-129F filing, proof of meeting in the last 2 years was required. Evidence of a relationship is required for the interview.

Also, the G-325A use to have 4 pages. That is where the 4 comes from. It is now only 1 page. So one G-325A for you and one for your fiance(e).

And don't forget the medical fee, cost of the CENOMAR, NBI, birth certificate, police certificates (if needed), CFO seminar and visa stamp, plane ticket back to USA and AOS after you get married.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresNOA1 - Country of Birth Unkown
I plan on including a copy of my fiancée's birth certificate in my I-129F package because the spelling of her last name is slightly different than that of of her fathers on the birth certificate. He uses his spelling for all of his legal documents and she uses her spelling for all of her legal documents. I don't want a RFE for the spelling difference so I am including the cert to try and avoid one.

Not sure if you can electronically file a I-129F. There is much supporting documentation that has to be included with the I-129F filing that could not be done with an electronic filing, at least as far as I know. Someone tell me if I'm wrong on this.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresWhat are the documents need to send to Fiancee after receiving NOA2??
The OP makes reference to 'Karen's Blog, and that the I-134 needs to be notarized. The I-134 does not have to be notarized as stated in the 'Execution of Affidavit' section of the I-134 instructions.

"... You must sign Form I-134 in your full name. (Note: Signing Form I-134 is under penalty of perjury under U.S. law). For this reason, it is not necessary to sign Form I-134 before a notary, nor to have your signature notarized after you sign it."

Although it does not hurt to do this, you may incur unnecessary additional expense. Also, there is not a place on the Form I-134 for a notary to stamp and sign.

Just my thoughts, John

Just wondering if this will be an issue and raise a red flag.

My GF's NSO birth cert has a different spelling for her and her father's last name. He uses his last name spelling on his official documents and she uses her last name spelling on her official documents including her passport.

Does anyone have any thoughts on this.
