K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresUSCIS said he CANNOT visit

the G-28 is for our attorney to be able to deal with the proceedings


I know - but which proceedings? You don't have to file that form in order for the attorney to help you with the paperwork, etc. At least not to my knowledge. The info on USCIS' page about that form says 'will appear before U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services on behalf of a person involved in a matter before USCIS.' There's no need for an attorney - or anyone - to appear before USCIS for a petition. Unless something goes dreadfully wrong somehow.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresUSCIS said he CANNOT visit
Well, I just mainly thought the chances of the UK citizen having to appear before USCIS officials would be almost nil for the I 129f process. Once the petition is approved, it's out of USCIS' hands and over to the Dept of State for the visa.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresUSCIS said he CANNOT visit
USCIS has no dog in this hunt as they do not make the decisions at the border as to who is let in and who isn't. That's down to CBP officers. This would likely be another case of the infamous USCIS 800 MISinformation line striking again...!

A G 28 with your I 129f? Interesting!

Not to that level of detail. Your employment becomes more important at the consulate, where you need to prove your job/income can support you and the intending immigrant.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresFiance visit while waiting on NOA 2
Have a gander at the UK forum to find others going through the process right now. Should give you a good idea of what the timing is like right now (as far as wait time between medical and interview). In our case, it was about 2 weeks - but that was back in 2007.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Proceduresquestions due to k1 anxiety
The information from the consulate will be sent to your fiance via the address you listed for him on the I 129f. Sure he can open a post office box, but you'll still have to find a way to let the consulate know to use that address instead. The only possible way to do that is wait until the petition is approved and is at the NVC where it will receive a consulate specific case number. Then contact the consulate with that case number and the updated address. May not work but it's probably the best shot you'll have.

I didn't think that she could even get an interview at another consulate that she isn't under. She might be able to get an interview, isn't that a more difficult process.. Especially if she is out of status while in canada...

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresSend DS 2001

Hello

I'm the French fiancée and I still DON'T HAVE MY P3 but I HAVE ALREADY MY CASE NUMBER !

My question is :
Is there ANY RISK that I send my DS 2001 + DS 230 Part I to Paris Embassy without they blame me or reject my case or they postpone my interview ???

And another question :
Is there anything else do I have to send except these 2 forms ???

Cause it's like already 4 weeks I'm waiting for my P3 !
I want so bad to send it now, I can't wait anymore but I don't want they notice I sent it before receiving my P3.

Thanks
Séverine



The DS-2001 is no longer used. Just send the Ds-230 and its necessary related dcks

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresMedical fee

Hi everyone

what is the cost for the medical for child and adult.

and do you have to do it before your interview,


thank you
jenny


There are 3 medical facilities that's are in kingston that conducts this part of the interview. I think one of them is the mmemorial hospital located in the hwt area. Prices as contacted are subject to change so call them. vaccinations shots are required if the applicant has no proof....and there's a fee included for the additional service.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedureswill cancellation of K1 affect my B1/B2 visa?

so i just need to go to the embassy and let them know that i no longer wish to live stay in the US? will i tell this to the verification of the documents part or to the consul during the interview?

yes you can go there. They probably wont accept a phone call since that could be anyone and they are unable to verifify you. sometimes a letter maybe required.




the time to cancel the visa appointment has already lapsed and they already have my passport.


When is your interview date.. I asked because you said the time to cncl has lapsed However, An appointment maybe cancelled at anytime.

They might have cancelled your Tourist visa already or would have been at the time when youpick up the passport. At that time you can let it be known that you choose not to use the visa and that you will not persue living in the usa and would like to retain the tourist visa.... visa should be fine

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresHow much English is required for the visa?

My fiancee speaks primarily Spanish. I speak Spanish myself and we communicate very well.
What is her level of English she will need. She has a desire to learn English but I can teach her when she is here, as this is what I do in my volunteer job here in the United States.

I love this girl. I am buying English classes for her for this but am going to send in my i-129 next week and she is still working out the basics. I know the classes she is taking are intensive enough for her to pick up on some of it, but how well does she need to speak it? Are there guidelines or a test? She will be able to tell them about her love for me, but may have trouble talking about the past in English, like how we first met.

I have seen many brides come with nothing from many different countries.

If you are a husband or wife who is or was the alien fiancee, then it would be nice to hear your story. Is there a test for this? There is so little information considering that it can cost you over a thousand dollars just to have to start it all over again.



NO english requirements... the interview can be conducted in the "official" language of the country.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresHow do I send payment from outside the US?

When you say drawn from a US account, how does that work when doing it from Australia? These questions probably seem stupid :blush:

I understand. Drawn from a US acct. Means, if u are going to use a check to pay then the bank "must" be located on the usa.

If you will use A money order THEN the company/financial institution"must" be located in the usa..


Hope my explanation was clear.

Payment for what..? Visa../ Applicant..? If you are in Aus. have you not considered DCF..? IF you will mail any payment to the USCIS then payment must be made only with a CHECK or Money Order drawn from U.S. Account.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresSunk before I have even started?

Hello all, I just got engaged last month to my lovely fiancee but there seems to be a problem before I can even file the K1. It is a bit complicated but here goes. He was here before under a K1 visa with his first wife, they divorced but he found a new lady and married her while he was still here. They started the new paperwork and during that time things did not work out and they divorced. While he was waiting for a hearing to see if he would be able to stay in the USA or not he decided to chuck it all and went back to his home country before the court hearing (which was in 2008). Just found out that an order of removal was placed against him in his absence. He of course did not show up at the time and place required by the court since he was no longer in the country. Are we sunk?



His third time around doing immigration paper work..would definately need experts involved. So he was out of status for long....? This would help to decide how long of a ban they would try to place againt him.

best of luck

I'm submitting our I-129F visa today and I was curious if after they receive the application and begin processing it if my fiancee can visit me in the U.S. at any point during the processing period?



If she doenst already have a tourist visa... probably would be hard to get one.. if he is able to get to the usa on any visa type and will use it for the intended purpose then yes... also if asked she will be required to show stong ties to her country. There are people who have their family travel while the application is pending.

If my fiance entered country as a minor, but was sent back on the plane to go home(he wasn't deported and never left airport) is it wrong to answer "No" to the question "Have you ever been to the U.S.?

The Lawyer makes no sense... why not put it on the Application BUT confess/tell at the interview..? What's The difference.. The rooot cause need to be known first...

CBP doesnt just turn around people ... why would his passport be held ..? Why was he NOT allow entry..?

HE's been to the USA yes but was not allow entry.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresAge gap?

Hi, I am the 46 year old..... To everyone who has had wonderful supportive comments, thank you!! It is nice to hear comments that help alleviate the stressful process we all are enduring. To those of you who don't agree, isn't it wonderful we live in a country where you have the right to your opinion and I for one am glad you do not get to make laws. As a human citizen we have the right to pursue life, liberty, and happiness. Fortunately, here in the US, we are within the law. So, please do not judge, what you do not, or can not, understand. She is as mature as woman 3 times her age. I guess the joke is on me if you want to say I act 3 times less my age. ;) However, our relationship was born from a wonderful friendship in which we talked for hours without seeing one another physically or knowing each others ages. We became friends because we liked each others company and conversation. We grew into our love as it stands today. Maybe if more relations were born from the same pattern, they would last longer. We plan to fight for our relationship and appreciate everyone's struggles to achieve their own personal happiness while being made to jump through many legal hoops.
Good Luck to all.......!!!

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Proceduresplease be concern about the papers!!

Guys,

I was printing all the phone calls history, skype chat history, msg history, I could literally make 3 books out of it.
and the situation made me concern about how much paper we are actually wasting through this process. And sadly, how many trees we're killing here?? After this process, all those paper goes to the garbage can.Have anyone thought of this?

So I'm suggesting here that please use the both side of the paper for all your phone calls history, chat history, and msg history. I'm sure that visa officers would understand that, and would actually like it because they know people like you would saving american's resource when you start living in the States.
Its not the money issue, you know, it's not like trying to save couple dollars, is just nobody likes to pay to cut those trees down to waste.
