K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	Well here it goes!	Make sure you have copies and extras of everything...just in case. Good luck! I have two extra copies of what I sent just in case!	jen&darcy	Not Telling	Canada	2006-04-20 13:14:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	Well here it goes!	Well I finally have all my documentation to file for the K-1. I have been on this board for over a year now and I can finally file. I have been biting my finger nails and checking the packet a zillion times. I had other people review it also and low and behold I forgot a signature. Phew! It will be sent out express mail today. I can now finally start the journey with everybody else. Yeah! Jen P.S. Thank you for pinning the RFE list. I reviewed that also!	jen&darcy	Not Telling	Canada	2006-04-20 09:39:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	Signature on photo	Ok so I have been reading ahead and it says when you get the additional pictures for the medical and the interview you are to sign the back of them. I just submitted the K-1 petition and I wrote our names on the back of the pictures that I submitted with the G-325A. This was according the instructions in the guide on this forum. Was I supposed to have signed them instead or is that only for the later stages? Yep I am freaking over every little thing!	jen&darcy	Not Telling	Canada	2006-04-20 10:08:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	Tax records required?	Nigel had a letter from my employer and bank and London didn't ask for anything else. If you have the tax returns handy I would say print them out and take them. But if not and you're not self-employed you probably won't need them. Getting tax transcripts from the IRS is free if you call them at 1-800-829-1040.. It's always better to be over prepared than under prepared and getting an 221g. Get the tax transcripts and send a copy of them to your fiancee. You'll need them for your I-864 for AOS anyways.. Thank you Zyggy. I am going to order mine today just to have. I like to be over prepared!	jen&darcy	Not Telling	Canada	2006-04-21 10:01:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	RFE - CIS lost our passport photos	So sorry to hear about this. This stuff always worries me.	jen&darcy	Not Telling	Canada	2006-04-20 13:06:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	Divorce Decree	I sent the whole thing and it was 32 pages long. However, I have two girls from a previous marriage so there is custody and a separation agreement attached. I figured if they are only interested in the first few pages then they can ignore the rest. I would rather be safe than sorry.	jen&darcy	Not Telling	Canada	2006-04-20 12:48:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	Divorce Decree	I apologize. I didn't see that this was just asked about a week ago. I did a search and nothing came up so that is why I asked. Again my apologies! Jen	jen&darcy	Not Telling	Canada	2006-04-17 19:45:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	Divorce Decree	I have a question on sending my divorce decree with the I-129F for the K-1. Do I have to send the whole document including the Separation Agreement? or do I just send the first four pages which is the Judgment Entry with the judge's signature on it? I have the packet assembled and was sending the whole thing. I just wanted to know what other people did. Thanks, Jen	jen&darcy	Not Telling	Canada	2006-04-17 19:37:00

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	CSC	I kinda doubt that a government agency works on Saturday other than the post office. I can't say for certain but they get more holidays off than us regular working people. Just my thought.	jen&darcy	Not Telling	Canada	2006-04-23 21:11:00
IMBRA Special Topics	Lets collect some information about IMBRA effects	Ok this makes no sense. I just checked my status at USCIS and it says last updated April 29, 2006. Umm this morning it said June 3, 2006. What the #$($*&($ are they doing over there? Now like 3 minutes later it says 6/3/2006. GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!	jen&darcy	Not Telling	Canada	2006-06-05 12:56:00
IMBRA Special Topics	Lets collect some information about IMBRA effects	I just wanted to say that I decided to look up my case today for the heck of it. I was 'touched' today again. 3 days in a row!	jen&darcy	Not Telling	Canada	2006-06-03 14:23:00
IMBRA Special Topics	Lets collect some information about IMBRA effects	This 'touching' deal has been interesting as of late. I was 'touched' yesterday, and just looked tonight and was 'touched' again. Do they do this everytime your case is looked at because of a phone call? I am pretty sure today was the day my Senator called, so I was curious about if that is why I'm getting touched more than a cheap hooker.	jen&darcy	Not Telling	Canada	2006-06-01 22:50:00
IMBRA Special Topics	Lets collect some information about IMBRA effects	Ok guys I just reread the email and noticed something. On June 1, 2006, we transferred your I129F PETITION FOR FIANCE(E) to an office in CALIFORNIA SERVICE CENTER for processing. That office has jurisdiction over the case. They will send you a written decision as soon as processing is complete. You should receive a notice informing you that your case has been transferred to a local office. This sounds like it is going to our local offices. What does everybody else think?	jen&darcy	Not Telling	Canada	2006-06-01 19:59:00
IMBRA Special Topics	Lets collect some information about IMBRA effects	I think people are bothered because they are being transferred to a center that is slower than the one we were at, regardless of it being connected to IMBRA or not. Yes, we will likely get something next week to check off whether we are IMBRA-related or not, but that doesn't change that my center's processing time went from looking at file from Feb. 20 to looking at files from Feb. 2. I still think a sign of movement is welcome, but I am wary of having been sent to California. Exactly!	jen&darcy	Not Telling	Canada	2006-06-01 19:13:00
IMBRA Special Topics	Lets collect some information about IMBRA effects	Yes in fact 5 emails.	jen&darcy	Not Telling	Canada	2006-06-01 16:55:00
IMBRA Special Topics	Lets collect some information about IMBRA effects	I've been transferred to CSC too. Just as I was reading about everyone else's transfers and whispering to myslef "please don't transfer me, please don't transfer me" I got a you have mail ding! This means mine must be coming momentarily!	jen&darcy	Not Telling	Canada	2006-06-01 16:54:00

IMBRA Special Topics	Lets collect some information about IMBRA effects	Didn't someone over on the USCIS Centres section post something about Nebraska splitting the K1 visas up between California and Vermont? Sorry, I don't know how to perform links, but there was definately a post about it. It was supposed to be I-129s not I-129Fs. It is posted on their website. It was effective April 1st though.

IMBRA Special Topics	Lets collect some information about IMBRA effects	Mine hasn't changed at all and I haven't gotten any emails but then again I am way behind both of you.	jen&darcy	Not Telling	Canada	2006-06-01 14:31:00
IMBRA Special Topics	Lets collect some information about IMBRA effects	you can add me to the list of those waiting for Nebraska. Got my NOA1 on April 20. No touches. Not that I was expecting any! We are one day apart hockeygal. I received NOA1 on April 21st.	jen&darcy	Not Telling	Canada	2006-05-29 16:20:00
IMBRA Special Topics	Lets collect some information about IMBRA effects	It would certainly be nice if the couple who received the NOA2 fr. Nebraska recently joined the forum and posted their timeline.... Agree! Gary - you are doing a great job!	jen&darcy	Not Telling	Canada	2006-05-18 09:09:00
IMBRA Special Topics	Lets collect some information about IMBRA effects	You can add me too Gary. Although, I don't anticipate a NOA2 for a long time considering I am going through Nebraska. NOA1 - 4/21. Thanks!	jen&darcy	Not Telling	Canada	2006-05-17 07:43:00
IMBRA Special Topics	Lets collect some information about IMBRA effects	As I mentioned in my post, we most definitely didn't meet through an IMB and were very clear in stating that we met in person at a sporting event, but our petition was still recalled. In addition to describing how we met the first time, we also mentioned that he traveled up to visit me during the summer and supported it with the stamps in his passport (even though Canada doesn't usually stamp passports anymore, they were working to rule at the time), photos of us at a city-run event he attended that I coordinated (it's listed in my employment history), and AMTRAK stubs with our names on them from our travel within the US (and both purchased with his credit card). There should be no concern whatsoever that we met through an IMB. I hope this means we'll be re-approved quickly. Damn! This really makes me nervous. So sorry cdngirl06.	jen&darcy	Not Telling	Canada	2006-05-16 11:02:00
IMBRA Special Topics	Lets collect some information about IMBRA effects	I attached a two-page letter further explaining how we met on the internet and our history together. Hopefully that will rule out any suspicions. So far, there isn't enough people affected here I don't think to see a pattern unfortunately.

IMBRA Special Topics	RFE for NOA1 people	-- I mean, people from Vermont Service Center. Its a good thing you added that part because all of us transferred from Nebraska would have said 'no'!	jen&darcy	Not Telling	Canada	2006-06-30 07:48:00

IMBRA Special Topics	california rfe,,,got mine!!	I got my RFE today. My NOA1 was May 5. transferred to Cali from Nebraska in June. I'm in Ohio. Cool! I am in Ohio too so let's hope its there when I get home.	jen&darcy	Not Telling	Canada	2006-06-30 11:36:00
IMBRA Special Topics	california rfe,,,got mine!!	Well this is awesome news! I would hope you guys in California would get yours first. So this means the rest of us wayyyyy across the country should be getting them any day now. Phew! I can breathe a little better. I am moving in two weeks and I didn't want to change my address until this came.	jen&darcy	Not Telling	Canada	2006-06-28 19:47:00

IMBRA Special Topics	California Service Center RFEs have been sent out	Sanity Gary? What's that? I think I lost mine long ago!	jen&darcy	Not Telling	Canada	2006-06-28 10:04:00
IMBRA Special Topics	California Service Center RFEs have been sent out	I am not trying to slam Gary because I am grateful for all that he has done but not all consulates/embassy's take 4-6 months to get an interview date. In my mind, it doesn't wash out. If I would have filed before this damn IMBRA came into affect, I would right now been approved through Nebraska. This is how the timeline was going when I filed. Vancouver only takes 2-4 weeks to get an interview so in essence I am lucky that I don't have the backlog that some people have with getting an interview but as it stands now with CSC I will be lucky to be approved by September or October. Sorry I am beyond the point of frustration!	jen&darcy	Not Telling	Canada	2006-06-28 08:41:00
