its like when they asked him to bring in his passport we thought yes this is it but instead they gave another hold. they said it would be weeks if not months several times so its like i didnt understand why they wanted his pasport and why they wasnt sending it back ( we didnt ask for it back of course) so dhl called and said they have his passport so he was like ok is anything with it and they said they wasnt sure what was with it so it was like omg this is it yes or no.. so he called me cause he said he couldnt hardly type at all. im thinking we are for sure going to get an attorney onit for his adjustment cause this was allot of stress so somone else can deal with it. the sad part is i think hes going to wait till around the 1st of october to come because he promised his mom to visit for EID but im ok just glad its over.. anyone hear if there has been pproblems on waiting like that to come. somone told me that he should arrive within 30 days

sorry i havent been around but its been too depressing trying to play this waiting game. ahmed got an email saying to bring in his passport so he can get his visa. he took it in 2 days ago so we are hoping we have it soon ( the letter acts like he can still be denied but i dont think they would ask for it then deny it)

i dont know if its too early to be happy but i am smile.gif

Candy - Does he have any paper which says your case is under Ap? Pls contact your congressman

I got a pet ( puppy) shinese ( Half pekinese / half Shi tzu) to keep me company while my fiance is at work. I have been working lately on the wedding favors and wedding menu. I love the time i have for myself without having to worry about work like at home. I try to keep myself busy sometimes with playing pool, working out ( gym) , reading and sometimes checking on wedding stuff online.


I miss the nice weather , cant wait till spring is here officially and its all warm


no paper at all... you know indiana has really messed up weather.. some of my kids are there. me and my sister will be in indianapolis soon to goto a cafe there. the whole thing is they didnt give him anything. they just told him its under review and said they dont know how long. i feel like its somthing they say to people cause they dont wanna say denied to your face. im working on a letter now im gonna sen d it to everyone including obama :S

i asked him what exactly ddid she talk about cause that gives us an idea what theyre looking into and he said they asked about the cosponser living in a diffrent state and if i have my own house or live with somone which of course i have my own house. maybe theyre looking at it as a badd thing but before they told us we only need somone in the u.s.
he wants to give it 2 weeks and then make plans for me to come live in kuwait. ugg i dont get what they are doing really i dont . at least if they give us some clue we could clear it up maybe.

I am just curious to know how you communicate with your girlfriend if her English is not that good ? I am assuming you know her Language well and you both communicate more using her language else if not then any body reading your story will easily make the conclusion although incorrect that your marriage is a SHAM even though its not..Thats how this Consulate officers usually reason .... ..I know love has no barriers but again your gf suffering from some English deficiency may have cost her own down fall with the Interview


i agree. iif she can speak it well ennough to hold a conversation with you then why not them? if she is in the place where she was born then shouldnt there be allot of people who speak the same language?

The Sydney consulate is really good (and quick) about responding to emails. I'd write them, explain your situation and see if you will need a co-sponsor. Don't bother calling them, you wont be able to get through to anyone who will help with k-1 questions.

Email to: SydneyIV@state.gov

Also, I dont think you need to include tax info unless you are self employed. Just the letter from your boss, checks and statement from the bank and any info on assets.



annax hun lots of loves your way!! THANKS!


I believe that SSI is counted as income on your tax return. So that would be in addition to your wages. If that is so, then your wages + SSI(assuming it's more than the $1200 shortfall you indicated) would get you over the hump.

Do a search here on VJ reagrding the SSI. I would bet that situation has been experienced by someone else. When asking the embassy give them all the info needed to give you a good answer.

Don't give up. Think BIG PICTURE and tackle the obstacles. It's worth it!



when you file taxes you cannot include ssi... because it is actually a form of welfare

Hey, I was wondering what will happen if I don't get my K-1 in time for the wedding date we have planned?? Is there any way for me to move to the US and get married without the K-1??? Can I just change the process from K-1 to K-3 (I believe it's a K-3) I am trying to do the whole application thing without a lawyer but early in the process I did call one immigration lawyer who said that what I'm describing here is indeed possible but she didn't say how... she wanted me to retain her services at a fee of $3500 CDN and I figured that was a waste of money....

you have all been EXTREMELY helpful in the past and I'm very thankful for this website!! It has made this whole process a heck of a lot easier! Please let me know!!!

I'm almost there guys. My interview's next tuesday and i've been going through all our papers. I did some research on possible grounds for visa denial and haven't found anything that might apply to me ( i hope i didn't miss anything...i'm not a criminal...haven't been convicted of anything...never overstayed in the US...not a drug user or trafficker...and my hubby did good with his income last year (and some supporting docs for this year's income) ). Oh and i passed the medical exams too. kicking.gif

Just pretty nervous right now. I will be like this until the consul says i'm good to go.

Wish me luck and please include me in your prayers. Good luck to us all and hope that we will all be reunited with our beloved finally.

Pray that my journey too will come to a beautiful ending. rose.gif

and i am freaking out here


First, stop freaking out! That won't get you anywhere and you say you have a co-sponsor, so relax.

Your SSI is your source of income. Yes, you will also need to submit an I-134 and state that SSI is your income and show a tax return and any other income documentation you have. There is NO REQUIREMENT that you or anyone else "have a job", you need to have INCOME (or a co-sponsor) to qualify.

If you (and our co-sponsor) have income exceeding the 125% it is NOT POSSIBLE for him to become a public charge and THAT is the point. Verifying your income for the K-1 and later the AOS disqualifies you or him from receiving public "means tested" aid. No food stamps for you for the next ten years!!!!



SSI is considered need based income and they don't count that as income on either the I-134 or the I-1864. There is a section, at least on the I-1864 in the instructions that talks about that. I think if it is not used for the I-1864 the same would apply for the I--134. I also get SSI that is not reported on a tax return. You can get a print out from social security saying how much you get each year, but disability based SSI is not reported to the IRS. If you work at all then report that, if not then you can't include it. They will go based off of your co-sponsor's information

Shrek, Brad Pitt and Jennifer Lopez were all having lunch together.
Shrek said, 'I have always thought that I'm the strongest man in the
world, but how can I be sure?
Brad Pitt said, 'I'm pretty sure I'm the hottest man alive but I've
never had it confirmed.'
Jennifer Lopez agreed. 'I'm told I'm the sexiest of them all, but
sometimes I wonder.'

They all decided that the best way to find out if their beliefs were
true was to approach the wicked Queen's mirror to confirm for them
whether Shrek was the strongest, Brad Pitt was the hottest
and Jennifer Lopez was the sexiest.

They agreed to meet again the next day for lunch to discuss their findings.
The next day Shrek walked up with a smile. 'Well, it's true. The
mirror told me that I am the strongest man in the world.'
Brad Pitt followed and boasted, 'It is true, it has been confirmed
that I am the hottest man alive!!'
Jennifer Lopez walked in, head bent, tears in her eyes and asked, "Who
the hell is Cuchita????
