Removing Conditions on Residency General DiscussionMay 2011 Filers
Question concerning the "My Case Status Portfolio" on the USCIS website. The site lists the last update to our ROC CRI89 as 06/02/11, but our biometrics was 07/28/11 and we had to call twice to get the appointment information concerning the bio appointment. It seems most list the last update as sometime in relation to the bio appointment. Is this true? It seems our update is still set at possible the initial touch of the packet.

Cheers,

Alvin

Thanks Diazy,

I was surprised that Homeland Security called not too long ago to make sure we received the fax. I asked the HS agent about that header, and she said no ASC has ever not accepted a copy such as that from them.

Removing Conditions on Residency General DiscussionMay 2011 Filers
My wife called this morning to inquire about the bio appointment date. They transferred her to USCIS and the lady said that our appointment is July 28, today when we called being July 25. The lady stated that they had mailed out our appointment, but could not give us a day mailed and they had our correct address on file. She did fax us a copy of the appointment letter which is dated June 30, 2011.

She said that the local ASC will accept the faxed copy, but when the fax came through it reads in bold on the top "This is not an original document. Acceptance of this courtesy copy is at the discretion of the receiving office." That to me reads that the to local ASC can thumb their nose at this if they see fit.

Has anyone else used a fax appointment letter or non-original?

Cheers,

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedureswhat will happen if petitioner moved to another country
I assume he is a civilian contractor working in Kuwait to take advantage of the foreign earned income exclusion. If so those contracts usually last a year and can re-up at the end depending on which contract company he is with. If he is a contractor just working overseas he will not change his residency I assume. I handle many such contractors who have been in Iraq, Kuwait, Afghanistan, Dubai, Qatar, etc... They have married spouses from various countries then returned to the contract work overseas while the spouse goes through the continued process.

Go through with the process if that is what is wanted. You have 6 months to enter the US after the visa is issued. By that time he will be enough into his contract he can probably take a few weeks to return to the US to marry you then. If he is going to qualify for the foreign earned income exclusion there are constraints on the amount of days he can be in the US. He will have to be out of the US for 330 days in a 12 month period.

Hi all,

It's been a long time since I have written here, but I do stop by daily to read the new posts. My "visa journey" has come to an ignominious end. My ex-fiancee has made it known to me that for a long time she has known she will not marry me. It is rough finding out so late in the game, but it is best to find out now than when she moved here.

I envy you guys who this works out for! Good luck on your continued journey...

btw: What do I need to do about the visa? She was issued the visa a few months ago.

Hi Jer,

My packet that I sent may have been super overkill, but I provided 2005 & 2006 1040's, copy of the W-2's, statement for bank, letter of employer, past two pay stubs and tax document showing tax value of real estate holdings. As far as ongoing relationship I never provided any information or even hinted at any sort of financial support for her.

Just a quick question concerning "Adjustment of Status" (AOS). Under the K-1 Fiancee visa you have 90 days upon entry to get married. What is the time frame from the date of marriage to file for AOS? I have just started to research the AOS, but have yet to get too deep into it. I really just want to make sure that she brings everything that might be needed for that such as birth certificates, translations and medical goodies.

Hey George,

I have only met my fiancee once for a two week period and we had no problems at all for our visa. However, we both have the good luck of being able to chat while at work. So during my evenings we were able to chat during her morning time at work, and during her evenings we were able to chat while I worked (minus tax season.... innocent.gif). I was able to print my chat logs for two years and also show my cell phone statements showing 300+ text messages a month and the calls. I included letters, cards and postage from packages also. I am not sure how the embassy views the meetings/chat/text/phone/mail/letters etc..., but ours flew through with just one meeting.

Funny little story for you guys. Like I stated that I chat while at work... During tax season I am usually pretty slammed, but would still chat with Gam early in the mornings. Usually if I have a client with me I would tell her to give me a few...which sometimes turned into hours...LOL. But if I would get what would end up being a super-simple 10 minute return. I would chat with Gam for a bit while the client thought I was working on their return. I feel bad sometimes charging for the simple returns...want them to feel like it took me more than 10 minutes to do the work. When I was going over the chat logs to send with the I-129F I ran across a couple telling Gam my client is staring at me while I chat with you...

Cheers,

Alvin

This is just from my fiancee's experience. She translated only her birth certificate and she did the translation herself. She took it to the embassy and paid 200baht for certified proof and received it back in two days. For same day service it was 800baht. This was a few months ago so the prices may have increased by now.

Hi guys,

Now since we have the visa we are trying to schedule flights and the such for a trip to the US. Here is where I want to make sure before I purchase the tickets. Is anyone familiar with the Point of Entry (POE) procedures? Are there only specific airports that allow POE's? I have read over VJ and it seems most people fly into LA or JFK, but I always fly in and out of ATL Hartsfield-Jackson as it is the closest international airport to me. Do we have to use NY or does ATL allow immigrant visa processing?

Gam emailed me a scan of her visa and one thing that she and I are confused about. The visa expires on January 1, 2009, but under the Annotation it says that the K-1 Petition expires on November 2, 2008? She asked the embassy official and he stated the visa expires January 2009, but when she asked what the Annotation mean...she said he ignored her and went on about something else. Is this annotation pertinent to her entry into the US or our marriage in the US time frame?

It seems that this portion of the process is over for myself and Gam...well at least till she receives the visa in hand tomorrow. The embassy called her today, July 8th, and stated that she can pick up her visa on July 9th. It has been two weeks and three days since the time she gave her police certificate. All in all the process was pretty smooth. Just the mail clerk misplacing the original police certificate slowed it down by two weeks.

Tis wonderful news!

Yea it's unbelievable how things work there huh? You would think that people would do the right thing, by returning something that doesn't belong to them. I guess helping one another out is too much to ask, and if there is no monetary reward for helping, well then screw it.
So since you didn't get it back, how did you get another paper?
Unreal how unorganized these idiots can be.


Littleasianman,

She just went to police station and asked if there was anyway she could get a copy, but they told her it was impossible as they had to be stamped by the head-honcho or someone. They guy she talked to said he would try his best to get her a new one faster. I can't remember the day that she was to have received the first certificate, but he said most likely they would have her another one on the 20th. I know she called him a few times, and she went to the station to pick the certificate up this time. From all she said the police really tried to help her out and work with her on this.

I will ask her some more specifics for you. Maybe she remembers the guys name who helped her out.

Don't hold your breath on them ever returning it. My fiancées cert was given to the wrong person in her condo and even she said they would never return. They would trash it she stated. She said the condo owner and mail clerk didn't care at all they made a mistake because there was no monetary value to the letter. She said had there been a value on it they would have tried to locate it...so they didn't have to reimburse her. To say the least, this surprised the hell out of me.

The interview probably gets PUSHED back another 2-3 months?
This is unreal, it's like we're getting screwed over because these morons can't even do their jobs correctly.
I am SO angry, it's like the interview is in less than two weeks and this is happening.
I don't even know what to do.


Littleasianman,

Yep, Jessica&Lute are correct. Go to the interview and you will be requested to bring the additional information on any Monday between 13:00 and 15:00. My fiancee delivered her police certificate this past Monday, and now is just waiting for them to contact her when she can pick her visa up. It really wasn't as big a deal as I feared it was. It will prolong the process, but only a few days to a week at most I am guessing.

You are correct, I was worried about nothing. The official told her that doesn't matter, and she said maybe that girl did give all the information about her situation. I really want to tell my fiancee to stop using that website she does...as the information she gets from there always seems bass ackwards.

Alvin


She gave the embassy the information that was missed on the first interview, her police certificate. The official told her that the embassy would contact her when she can go back. They told her that if she has not heard from them in two weeks she should contact the embassy. She asked the official why this will take so long and they told her the embassy computers are not that good now. That sounds like a BS answer to me...has there been a slow down in the process? Granted I take anything from the other visa website with a grain of salt, but one lady had an interview on June 18, was told could pick the visa up on June 20, but the embassy called and postponed her. I was at least expecting them to tell her pro or con what happened.

My I-129F expires on June 24th, which is Tuesday. My fiancee is taking her last piece of needed information on Monday 23rd. She said that about one lady she read the visa was denied because the I-129F was expired even though she passed the interview, but the date they told her she could pick up her visa when she came they told her she could not get it. Seems rather strange to work like this, but I could see it happening. I will try to contact USCIS to see what I need to do.

Hey everyone,

So I was able to get a response from the embassy finally. I asked them about the co-signer situation I had where my co-signer filed taxes jointly.
Basically, they responded with this email where they told me that they don't accept co-sponsors.
I called my lawyer immediately and she told me that they DO accept co-sponsors as they always have, however I'm just confused why the embassy would tell me otherwise. Or maybe I don't fully understand the email. anyways, I've copied and pasted it here.

Dear Mr. _____________________



The visa Ms. _______________ is going to apply is K-1 fiancé visa. In order to establish that you can support the visa beneficiary when she is in the U.S., you need to provide the I-134 Affidavit of Support. The form has to be submitted with your recent tax return form or W-2. As the I-134 is not legally binding, the petitioner is the one who fills out the form. Unlike the I-864 Affidavit of Support for immigrant visa application, you cannot have any joint sponsor for the I-134.



Regards,



Correspondence Unit

Anyone have any idea about this?


Littleasianman,

The way I read their response is to the very letter of the I-134 and maybe just a semantics misunderstanding. You can't file a joint or co-sponsored single I-134, but will have to file a separate I-134 for each sponsor of the I-129F. You as the US fiancée will be the primary and the second I-134 would be the co-sponsor. At least this is my understanding. Their letter is correct, but they sure as hell do not offer and extra information.

Alvin
