K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	If K-1 got denyed.......	Come on!. Why visa should be denied. Just follow all instructions, be aware and do your best. You went this far already. All will be just fine and dont give up. And as I have heard timings is almost the same. K-3 maybe easier about evidences, harder about affidavit for support.	Twomoles	Male	Latvia	2006-09-04 03:38:00

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	Not Accepted because not Properly Signed	Signed must be original. I did this from my side, he did, also. We read somewhere that something like this already happened, search in VJ. So - I made my signature like in oldschool - "n a m e s u r n a m e" nice and correct and expand. So dont make individual art from your signature (even this is not your way), do this as in basic shool, they will like it.	Twomoles	Male	Latvia	2006-09-10 18:03:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	End of the road	So sorry to hear! But maybe just take time to think, visa is available 6 months, no rush, not neccesary to go there immediately. During six months can entrance in usa, and then marry during 90 days. Its large step and sure time is needed to overthink from all sides. All I know in the moments while waiting for NOA2 we were up and down, end and start all the time, again and again. We overcme these hard times and this only made us stronger. This long, stressy and in some sort humiliating visa proocess surely affect relationship. And its not comfortable to be forced and pushed to marriage because of papers, its silly and hard also, its not right way how things should be. But still all can turn well.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	Hmm	Ok, I will go capture another, this is not problem. As I was redoing other things before But all in all this is about principles also. Because there should be one and only one exact and official information, not thousands interpretation. The same in thousands other questions, one say this way, another experienced this, but official pages each says something different. This is not how things should be, so every little silly question, I spend my time to figure this out, not sure about result anyway!	Twomoles	Male	Latvia	2006-09-10 12:05:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	Hmm	Nowhere in any guide. First time about ears I read here, in invitation letter: http://warsaw.usemba.../OF171_eng.html So I wonder It is preferable that ears be exposed. The key requirement is that the photograph clearly identify the applicant.* /http://www.usembassy.de/germany/visa/photo_req.html/	Twomoles	Male	Latvia	2006-09-10 11:39:00

Philippines	sending card to us	I just received my Valentines card in 8 days from Pangasinan to Pennsylvania. Usually would take 2 weeks!	johnR	Male	Philippines	2009-02-05 06:22:00
Philippines	Scheduling Visa interview in Manila	Hello VJers I hope you can help with a question we are struggling with. We have recently received our NOA2 and the interview apppointment letter however we are still trying to clear up my fiance's daughter's birth certificate which we hope to have completed on Feb 23rd. We are planning for them both to travel to USA together. How long is the wait in order to get an actual visa appointment at USEM in Manila? Or should we wait until her daughter's passport is received before attempting to set an interview date? I believe that you need to have your passport ready before you go for the medical. Any help would be greatly appreciated!	johnR	Male	Philippines	2009-02-12 20:12:00
Philippines	Made Visa Interview Appointment	Just called and got Cecilia her interview appointment for March 16! yeahey! Now her nervousness starts for real. I am sure she will do just fine! I was actually surprised that there are many appointments left for February still. We need to wait for the 16th because we are waiting for her daughter's passport to be finalized. 7 more weeks and we can be together!	johnR	Male	Philippines	2009-02-18 20:37:00
Philippines	St. Luke's Vaccine Package	My fiance Cecilia cannot locate who immunization records and she has already checked with her childhood Dr who also does not have any of the records. Does this mean that she will need to get all the shots over again? And if so, is this all covered under the medical fee or are additional fees required? It seems like a long list of shots are required! Thanks in advance to any advice! We are planning her medical in 2 weeks. She may end up feeling like a pin cushion!	johnR	Male	Philippines	2009-02-19 19:40:00

Philippines	Still waiting for the Visa	We have been waiting 5 weeks now for any information from the embassy since last request additional info had been submitted. I have called 20+ times to embassy from USA and I can never talk to a "live" person. Each time I call, the messages says the person is on the phone and to try my call again later. We are getting so frustrated. It would be nice if someone could just tell us why the delay!	johnR	Male	Philippines	2009-06-15 13:54:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	Recieved NOA2 but website still says "received and pending"	The same thing happened to us.

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & Procedures	Any experience with Denmark?	Cool! Thanks so much for giving your input, I appreciate it. I've been a worry-wort from the beginning with all this... I'm happier than I have been in a very long time today...THE HUBBY IS GETTING HIS VISA TOMORROW AND COMING HOME WEDNESDAY!!! :-) So, yeah, he passed and all went well THANKS AGAIN! I am just absolutely overjoyed...finally... I love your icon with the DK and US flags :-) Philly too huh? Same here :-) Asia Eriksen	AEriksens	Female	Denmark	2010-05-31 22:07:00
IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & Procedures	Any experience with Denmark?	Thanks for helping me get some peace of mind. He was really bewildered, it seems, that the interview was nothing at all what he expected. That combined with such a long waiting period (it seems like everywhere i look they have a 7 day turnaround, and everybody picks them up the next day!) really made me so nervous. Feels like we've been waiting forever, and on a day that we thought would bring closure, we only found out that we have to wait even longer than normal.	AEriksens	Female	Denmark	2010-05-26 17:06:00
IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & Procedures	Any experience with Denmark?	Hey everyone... My husband is a wonderful Dane, and he just got finished his interview at the US embassy in Copenhagen...it was the moment we'd been waiting for so long for. He said it was mostly paperwork, waiting and then the interview itself went so quick, that he barely had time to ask anything....at the end nobody said whether or not he was approved! They had him sign something, a statement that swears that the contents are true to his knowledge, and that was it. They took his passport (which we assume is a sign that he is approved?) and told him that they will notify him when he can come get his passport and "packet"...they also said it could take up to three weeks. We are wondering what is going on, because it seems like with other cases people get their Visa right away after the interview. At least all of the Denmark cases seem to be issued the next day. I am also wondering why they did not even state whether or not he was approved? We thought we'd be celebrating today, but now we are just sort of confused. Can anyone offer any help? Thanks a million! Asia Eriksen	AEriksens	Female	Denmark	2010-05-26 11:49:00
US Embassy and Consulate Discussion	Did not received packet 3 yet. I have suspects it’s been lost.	My mail: I did not received packet 3 yet. When I called to embassy about it, someone said, that probably something happened with this because of post services, and if so, that I can send these forms already and not to wait for packet. So I did, and hope this is right. This fax number is always busy, so I sent these forms (DS-230 first and second page with supplement about employers, and WRW-1) by usual mail in Friday, September 15. Embassy mail: Dear Madam: We have received your completed forms and have updated your computer record to reflect that you had obtained all the necessary documents. Shortly, we will schedule an appointment for your visa interview. Poland	Twomoles	Male	Latvia	2006-09-22 09:32:00
