K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsRight here...just waiting and waiting

Ufff...I can't do anything right, all I was trying to do was respond to a friend...


Don't worry Lisa,its not your fault. I didn't know that we had to be careful with VJ's police :rofl:
I understand that we have to write in english so everybody can understand on the forums but i was just sharing a song and you were responding to me personally so I don't know why such a drama for one sentence in spanish.

God bless you Lisa and don't worry, we have enough to worry about dealing with USCIS

by the way, thank you for your response I'm praying for all of us having our approvals really soon, Hopes up always!!!

chao...oops! Bye :P

The rule is that all of the posts made in the immigration sections must be in English so that the information is understood by everyone - not just you.


Can you please tell me where in the TOS said that? cause i was reading it and I couldn't find it...thank you

Please do not use languages other than English in the Immigration forums. The use of languages other than English is restricted to the Regional Forums. Thank you.


She was replying to me and I did understand...so if you don't have anything to say about the topic save it for you... :P and I'm not saying it in a mean way
God bless

I got the best news today I've had all year!!! I called USCIS again, not really expecting much (but hoping for the best) and asked to speak to a higher level of customer service. After waiting 15 minutes, she said that she had good news--my case was approved on January 4!!! Thank you so much, Lord!!! I can't contain my excitement =). I guess they just haven't updated my case online, but she said I should get a letter in the mail. Praise the Lord and thank you VJ for the encouragement!!!


yay!! :dance: Congrats!! God is always faithful!

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsJuly 2010 VSC filers

Have you been in contact with your senator yet? He/she needs a release form signed by you otherwise USCIS cannot talk to them. Most senators have the form on their website. You need to download it, fill it out and sign it, and fax it to their office.

A senator cannot force USCIS to do anything, but it frequently helps, as they will take a call from a senator's office much more seriously than a call from you.

If you can, do that tonight so they will have it when you call tomorrow.


well Paul left a message at his senator office before new years eve and they called back today so He will fax our papers 2nite :)

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsJuly 2010 VSC filers

Well, I got the long awaited reply from VSC today. After waiting the 2 weeks on the inquiry on my case, I got an email response saying, "Your case is currently under review. You will receive a notice of action within 60 days of the date of this letter." 60 days? Are they kidding me? It's already been 5.5 months! You'd think they could at least give me a tighter time frame than that! I knew the government was inefficient, but I didn't know they would be this inconsistent and unfair, approving August filers when a lot of July filers are past their time frame. Sorry I couldn't bring some good news, but just had to get that off my chest. I know the Lord's timing is perfect and that this wait has strengthened my faith and my relationship with my fiancee, but I just wish USCIS would show some consistency!


Totally agree with you :thumbs:
We are calling our senator office, idk if that would help but anything its better than just being waiting for USCIS to finally work on july filers

So Paul called to USCIS yesterday, useless as always :bonk: they keep saying that we should call after our 5 months mark...he asked them why some people was already approved if they applied days even months after us and they just said every case is different....GOOD GRIEF!!!

Hope to have good news any time soon, we are just 2 weeks away from the 5 months :blush:

God bless you all of us in this annoying waiting

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresPoe need help with problem please asap

ran into a problem and needing to solve it at the last minute.

Husbands poe is this Saturday, I attended the interview with him and so we had combined all the paperwork together and so when separating it before I went home I ended up with his vaccination records although it seems he has everything else, since it's Wednesday already there's not enough time to ship this paperwork to him I wouldn't want to risk him not getting it in time before his flight, is there a way to get this to him from the airport where I could go through security to hand him this document or hand it to the immigration officer at the poe immigration post, not sure what to do as it has been hectic and we only realized this at the last minute, if anyone knows what we can do let us know please.

would they possibly have vaccination copies in the sealed envelope, I'm not sure about this either, but I have the originals in hand and need to get them to my husband somehow.

Thanks,
Jen and Geert


Does he has the sealed envelope from Embassy?? if so there is no problem cause in that envelope is all his info,even his medical records :thumbs: he have to give that sealed envelope to the Immigration Officer at his POE.

God bless

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresQuestion about whether translation is needed for NVC

Thanks for the replies, I've generally taken a "better to have it and not need it" kind of attitude, but in this case we're late getting all of our documents together, and I'd rather not have to pay more if it can be avoided.


Hi, you or your wife can translate the documents, you don't have to pay to someone else to do it, I did it and I have no problem at the embassy...if you want to I can send the samples of the birth and police certificates translations, you will just have to fill them out with your wife's info :thumbs:PM me your email address and I'll be more than glad of send them to you
God bless you

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresQuestion about the medical exam

I was reviewing the information provided on state.gov for the medical exam required for our interview in Chile, and they say we need to bring three things to the appointment:
a) Carta de citación para su entrevista (our interview notice)
b) Formularios para el examen médico (forms for the medical exam)
c) El pasaporte vigente con el cual Ud. piensa viajar (passport that will be used to travel on)

My question is about the second item: Are there some forms that we should have received or grabbed from somewhere? Or maybe is this something specific to Chile? I'm not quite sure what they might be asking for. I may go ahead and contact the embassy, but thought I'd ask here also.

Thanks!


Did your get a package from the embassy with all the forms you need to fill out for the interview?? it supposed to go in that package and by the way, go to Dr. Grossman she is much better than the other Dr.
God bless you!

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresI-134 Help please =)

I was born in San Antonio, my husband lives in Santiago. I have a cousin in Valparaiso that goes to a really nice Christian church. Your English is great by the way. You have to be reaaly patient with this process. By the way I was able to expedite my husbands case because of the earthquake, but this benefit may only be for immediate relatives only (husband/wife or kids) check it out at USCIS website.
God bless and take care.

Emily


That's great :D
thanks for your compliment about my english, i don't have problems with my writing and reading but i still need to improve my spoken english:P
We knew that getting involved in a long distance relationship wouldn't be easy but we really love each other and that's worth all the waiting :luv: but sometimes missing him is REALLY rough:blush:
I told my fiance about the chance of get our case expedited because of the earthquake but he thinks, just like you said, that's just for immediate relatives so we will wait and wait and wait and...lol :P
thanks for your kind replies, ill be praying for you and your husband :)
