K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsSeptember 2010 K1 Filers
Touched again today! Tomislav is starting to think they're passing our application around to show everyone our cute pictures from fun trips or something! haha no I know I saw somewhere that anytime someone goes to lunch and comes back it can be another touch but I'm surprised that there are so many touches so early! This whole process is just so confusing/exciting/exhausting

I'm sure they cashed your check already, but the bank didn't update online. Cashing checks is the first thing they do. :D


Thanks! Yeah I assumed they would but the money hasn't been taken out of my account yet and everyday I'm like, oh it's still there!

Edited to update Anna and Ali's touch. Everyone seems to be touched on October 3, 2010. :P

Got the hardcopy NOA1 on Saturday, touched 10/1 and 10/3 but they still haven't cashed my check yet! It's good to see a lot of us are getting touches at the same time!

That's great that you'll be coming to visit. My fiance's also coming for two weeks at Thanksgiving. I'll be going to visit him for two weeks at Christmas.


Little late to the conversation but Tomislav is coming here December 11th to spend Christmas with me here. I can't wait because we've never spent Christmas together before and I'm so excited for him to see what Christmas is like here. Just a bummer because he's going back on the 26th so we won't be together for New Year's and we've been together for the past couple of New Year's. I have to admit I am a bit nervous though because what if they schedule an interview for him or something like that during the time that he's here? Would not be ideal...

Hi everyone! Tomislav and I got the email and text today that USCIS got our application and immediately I went to check the case status on the USCIS website. It says we're under "initial review." Is that where everyone else is right now? I'm really excited even though I know this is still so early, I just can't wait to be with my babe again

I added my boyfriend and I to the list..I changed my display name but this is the one here to stay FYI! Our application was delivered (according to USPS tracking) on Friday but still no text or email...I'm really looking forward to just hearing that they received it.

Hi everyone! Tomislav and I just sent our I-129F forms to Dallas and I just checked the tracking status from USPS and it says "Notice Left." So hopefully they receive it for real soon! I'm nervous and excited and anxious about the next steps in this process and am so glad to be able to have this resource here so I can talk about it with you guys :)

Also if you need documents translated, give yourself at least 3 days to get it back. That's standard time it takes to get certified translations. If you need the translated docs sooner, you can get it done but there will be a hefty rush fee. (I work for a translation company in Philadelphia.)

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresBased on timeline data, your I129f may be adjudicated between

You are really on a roll with the sarcastic comments lately. Why do you bother wasting your own time when you could just as easily close the window and let someone else answer? People post here because they're confused. It's great that you understand the process so well but not everybody gets this stuff as easily as you do. If you don't want to use your knowledge of the process (which I know you know a lot about) to be helpful, why even bother?


I also agree JlovesA! People are afraid to post their questions for fear of being made fun of and ridiculed. Gary-You are clearly, very knowledgeable on the immigration process, but comments like the one you made earlier are not helpful or constructive, they are just plain rude.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedureshow does this work?
Just so you know, you can call 1-800 numbers for free on skype. You don't even need any skype credit in order to call. I know when I lived in Egypt, I had to call my bank and was able to call for free from skype because it was a 1-800 number. Maybe you can try to call from skype?

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresJust Looking for Advice
Hi Jared, my fiance and I felt the same way. We've come to terms with the fact that our relationship is different than a "normal" relationship and we have to speed up our marriage much sooner than we probably would have otherwise. It's hard because you imagine the proposal and the surprise of it all but at the same time, I know our love is so real and so strong because long distance relationships are so hard and the K-1 journey definitely tests the strenghth of relationships. That being said, I'm so excited to begin real life with my love and this is the best option of us to be together, for good. Good luck on your journey! Keep us posted on how things are going :)

Good luck!! Follow the guides and once you file, follow the timelines of fellow VJ members who sent their applications close to yours, it'll help you feel more sane to know at least an estimated timeline. Good luck and congratulations on the engagement :D

Don't worry, it's only a small setback. You'll just send everything one more time. Good luck with your journey! Hope the rest goes smoothly after this little setback.
