Hi yall.

On the G-325A form, right down the bottom it says-
“Applicant: Print your name and Alien Registration Number in the box outlines by heavy border below”

I don’t understand how I’m supposed to fill this out. I haven’t got an Alien Registration Number? Do I just leave it blank? Or fill out my name but leave the ‘Alien Registration’ space blank?

Any help is much appreciated.



Whenever you run into a question where you do not have what they ask for...enter "None". Many of these forms are used for multiple visas for multiple purposes...not all the questions apply from every form. The only form used ONLY for K-1s is the DS-156K. All others are multiple use forms. You will see the G-325a again for the AOS and then you WILL have an A number.



Ahhh that makes a lot of sense. I was wondering why some of the forms asked for information that there is no way I could have had. Thanks for the info!


Ok, now I'm worrying, I did 'none' for everything else except this part, is that a chance for a red flag ?

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresHypothetical question K1 to K3
What if, my fiancee and I cannot wait for the k1 visa to be together in marriage. I have just began the K1 process, question is, if we decided to get married at some point in the K1 process and then be forced to switch to the K3, how does that affect the timeline? The I-129F has to be filed anyway with the addition of the 130F, at least I could travel to Pakistan for a few weeks here and there and make the wait easier is my hypothetical question.

Signed,

The King of Impatience... no not impotence.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresReceived NOA2 but need to cancel application
I'm sorry to hear also, I too hope he reconsiders, but if not, it's best, even though it's painful now, that it happened now. The pain and suffering could be much worse if you two get married, have children and then decide to "have cold feet" I would wait to cancel the process and let things settle down.

Hi All!

Here's my question. I am a US citizen and my Russian fiance and I are filing an I-129F.
I am having a difficulty with question 11: Have you ever filed for this or any other alien fiance? The situation is, several years ago I filed I-485 (Application to Register Permanent Residence or Adjust Status) for my now ex-wife. As a result she received her green card.
Question: Do I need to put that information (my ex's A# and date/place of issuance) here or does this question refer ONLY to any previous I-129F petitions?

Thank you!



Read carefully, interpret literally. Have you ever filed a petition for an alien fiance(e)?

the answer to question 11 is NO. No attachment is needed. The answer is NO

The answer to the A number question is UNKNOWN



I Agree, had the same 'dilema' and I answered NO as well.

QUOTE (Mr. K @ Oct 29 2009, 07:53 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
I received documents (G-325a, Letter of Intent, etc.) from my fiancee today, as I'm about to mail off the K1 packet. I noticed her signature on the documents is only her first name. Basically, this is how she signs. Will it be a problem to submit the paperwork this way?


In my opinion, as long as it's consistent, should be fine. Come to think of it, my fiancee may have done the same on our paperwork.... though I'm on the early stages of the process. Guess I'm not too much help?

(PS, this fear my wife has results in her sleeping naked close behind me all night so please, do NOT tell her the bears hibernate in the winter and NEVER climb in second floor windows to eat unsuspecting people, they are, after all, black bears, not AFRICAN LIONS, but I like having a beautiful naked woman snuggled up to me all night so we are not dispensing with any unreasonable fears of bears here, and apparently she is not modest and does not care if a bear sees her leap naked from a bed to make good her escape!)

QUOTE (shakinthembones @ Dec 18 2009, 10:37 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
I got the I-797, and on it states that it should take about 4 weeks for the nvc to get the papers and to call if I dont hear. After 5 weeks I called, and they said they dont have it on file, and that it can take up to 90 days. I called after a month and a half still nothing, and wait. just called again yesterday after almost 3 months, still nothing, wait. In the mean time, the other people that my fiance knows have all gotten thier notice for interview. I am getting worried, the approval period ends jan. 21. Has this happened to anyone else. Don't know what to do.



Could you please fill in your timeline, it' s a huge help on tracking your own as well as the rest of our projection dates.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresPacket almost ready, one issue and looking to get a double check

Got engaged 1 week ago. New to forums.

About my package ((k1 - 129F step 1):
Contents include:
Payment in the amount of $ 455.00
I-129F
I-129F Supplement: Part B, Question 18, explanation of meeting in person
G-325A (4 copies) and passport style photo (Petitioner)
G-325A (4 copies) and passport style photo (Beneficiary)
Birth certificate/US Passport (Petitioner)
Letter certifying intent to marry (Petitioner and Beneficiary)
Proof of having met in person in the past two years
42 printed Digital Photos with labels (7 pages of 6 photos each)
Scans of Passports (Petitioner and Beneficiary)
Ticket and Reciept Scans (8 pages)
Email Reciepts (13 pages)
Emails (2 pages)
Letters from family members confirming relationship (4 pages)
Skype History edited for content – Only completed calls with duration greater than 5 minutes (8 pages)

My fiance signed a letter of intent while I was with her this weekend, but the date says today, when we had no contact. The rest of her forms state 1-1-10. Only that form states 1-4-10. Is this an issue?


I think you're sending a bit much, we only sent (along with other documents) about 5 photos printed on one page, airline ticket, boarding pass, dinner bill and just got approved a couple days ago. I would save the skype stuff and emails for the interview.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresNOA2 doesn't make sense

It can take awhile for it to get to the NVC, I think the tag line they give you is that it can take up to 90 days, but most people are there within a few weeks. Just keep calling; there's nothing you can do about it for at least a few more weeks. A bit frustrating for you; sorry, but congrats on NOA2 :)


Thanks everyone for the kind words and that everything is normal, just one thing still bugging me though is that the USCIS website still indicates Initial Review. I reckon it may be a third party person who updates it perhaps; guess the Hard Copy NOA2 is more important anyway.
kabhattiMalePakistan2010-01-06 22:40:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresNOA2 doesn't make sense
I received my I-797 otherwise known as NOA2 a few days ago, after re reading it several times, I can't help but think there's an error or it totally skipped the NVC step. (The Listed Consulate, Islamabad, is not listed anywhere in the notice)

"The above petition has been approved, and forwarded to the listed consulate. Please contact the consulate with any question about visa issuance, or if you would like them to forward the petition to a different consulate. The petitioner can also file form I-824, Application for Action on an Approved Application or Petition, with this office to request that we notify another consulate of the petition approval for visa processing purposes. This form is not a visa...... etc."

It's been exactly one week and NVC has not received my approved petition fyi.

Please advise

Thanks

I think you'll be ok, if you sent a bunch of evidence including several chats, emails, photos, boarding passes etc., I can optimistically say that they don't have the time to read every letter or sentence in your papers, especially chat logs.

ok i have a burning question from my fiance he has got ants in his pants from me sending he visa he has been nothing but a pain in the you know where and i dont know what to do to calm him down everyday i call the vermont center to see if anything is new but still nothing he thinks the more i call the faster it happens. right now he is on my case about when they are going to approve it i said there is no way telling and they said that as well pretty much is there any way bc we have been touched only 1 time on the 21st of this month and nothing else has showed up now we are both going insane but can i help him from making me more insane? :help: :help: :help: :wacko: :wacko: :wacko:


explain to him that most of us wait 90 days or more before receiveing the NOA2 so he will just need to be patient and let the system work. It's not like morocco where you can give a little money and get something done. The good news is once you have the NOA2 morocco is pretty quick with the interview. Usually 4 weeks from the time Casa recieves it (or 6 weeks from the NOA2)

I know in Morocco there are lots of stories going around about how the visa process works (or how they think it works). Tell you fiance not to listen to these stories. It took us 5 1/2 months from mailing to visa being issued. This was going through California. Vermont works faster and barring any problems with security checks you will probably have everything in order in less time than we did! Good luck!


see 2 of his friends just got their visas and he is getting nervous about some things that were done on the visa like the fact on my g325a i didput an a# and i dont have one for his i didnt put my name or anything no the g325a but he is also anxius about the fact of seeing his friends again in america its hard but he doesnt get the fact that its giong to take time for this he is worried about that fact as i am not as much bc he does enough worrying for the both of us plus if i worry thats another min out of every day i cant afford how sad is that?
