true! i don't see any good reason why they are increasing the fees when they are delaying the process... soooo frustrating!

and by the way, we pay whatever fees there is on the spot... same day we are asked to pay... soooooooooooooooooooooo sad! :unsure:

yes neel06, there was a time when they kept approving k3 petitions almost everyday. I wonder why they stopped...

sumonlopa, we just kept calling NVC everyday using until one day the operator told my husband that they received it. A few days after, he called again and was given the case number. We checked yesterday but our DS3032 and AOS fee bill was not generated yet. Probably next week.
keep in touch!

i wonder why it's taking forever for them to approve all of us. It's very frustrating...

Please correct me if i am wrong, in regard to approvals - do they only do this on fridays? or anytime within the week. how come i noticed approvals on fridays...

or maybe i am just going crazy... :wacko:

K-3 Spouse Visa Process & Procedureswe are soooooo confused! we need help on our visa application

First you need to file the I-129F. The I-129F is the petition that when filed along with the I-130 will constitute it a K-3 and that will be adjudicated in Canada ( the country in which the marriage took place)

As far as your ability to remain in Canada during the process ; well that would be up to the discretion of the Canadian Govt. For some reason I wanna say the consulate will want proof that you are in Canada legally.



I came here in canada to visit my cousins and my grandma. I am always here legally. as a visitor, every other year. My husband came to visit me here, he proposed and next thing we know, we got married! we just want to tie the knot because we are soooooooooooo in love. And we have been gf/bf for a almost a year.
Without a doubt, i really wanna go back home - to the Philippines, as i just hate the weather here. The only reason why i am still here is because I am confused wether to wait for my k3 - for my interview or i can do it back there. ChinaDavid, thank you very much for the information. I really appreciate it. And to the others, thanks as well.

ok, i am married to a US citizen. I am a filipino citizen who is currently visiting here in canada. We got married here in Vancouver, last year December but im really from the Philippines. My husband got a mail telling him that they received our I-130 application. So we are working on our I-129f form but for some reason, we don't know what to start and what to do. Cause as what we know, to apply for a K3, it should be where the marriage took place. We just want to know if i, being a filipno citizen, do i need to go back to the philippines? or i just wait here in vancouver and apply from here. Please help us!!!!!!!!!!! All your advices wiill be of great help for us cause we miss each other soooooooooo much! my husband is in the US army and i just hope we will be together again soon. I LOVE HIM, HE LOVES ME! we love each other!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

US Embassy and Consulate DiscussionPlease help! thank you!
i live in the philippines but we got married in canada. I heard that the interview will take place where you got married right? so basically, the processing will be in the philippines and my interview will be at the consulate. they will send the packets to my country of residence. correct?

US Embassy and Consulate DiscussionPlease help! thank you!
Hello Everyone! My concern is in regard with the K3 visa. I heard this will be issued in the country where the marriage took place. I am a filipino citizen who got married in Surrey, British Columbia to an American. We have already filed for the form 129F (K3 visa) and we are just waiting for the 2nd notice of action. We would really like to know if the processing of the packets 3 & 4 as well as the medical examination will take place in Surrey, BC or would it be processed in my country of residence (Philippines). As far as i can remember, we wrote Vancouver as the consular office but we didn't write down my vancouver address. We would really appreciate any feedback coming from you guys!

God bless! thank you!

Canadado i fax checklist first? or do medical first

Book your medical and fax off that checklist! :) Make sure your "requested interview date" isn't after the date of your medical though.



Ok, i will do that.

Requested interview date? that's interesting! i can choose my interview date? how do you do that? via email? and when do you do that? after faxing i guess? please let me know everything i need to know so i can prepare for it!

Thank you so much to those who left me some replies regarding my concern. Thank yoU!

Canadado i fax checklist first? or do medical first
Hello everyone! My husband and I are awaiting for our Packet 3 to arrive. We are wondering if we can fax the checklist and DS 230 as soon as we get it since we have prepared all the documents already or is it necessary to do the medical exam first before faxing the checklist. Any information or advice would be greatly appreciated!

THANK YOU SO MUCH!

Mia

CanadaPolice check in Vancouver Area
So all i need to do is ask for a Wide name check when i go to Surrey RCMP? any other requirements? like photos? forms? any information will be appreciated. THANK YOU!


I'm sure this has been answered before, but I searched and couldn't find anything, so I'm just wondering for people around Vancouver where did you get your police check and how long did it take? What should I ask for when I go in? I have no previous convictions so I understand that I don't need to do fingerprints.

Thanks.


I went into the RCMP detachment in Langley and asked for a canada wide name check ... I think it cost me $35.00 and I had it in my hands in about 10-15mins ... I believe you need to go to the local police station that serves your area ...


mamalovesdadaFemale02007-08-02 20:29:00
Canadafaxed the wrong form

You'll be fine. Just refax the checklist and the DS-230 (part 1) with a coversheet indicating you mistakingly faxed the DS-156. Vancouver is awesome to deal with. Trust me, it'll be fine.



Thank you so much! that's a great idea. I will do that first thing in the morning. Thanks!!! :thumbs:
mamalovesdadaFemale02007-08-09 00:52:00
Canadafaxed the wrong form
ok i know i was so stupid to faxed the DS 156 form instead of the DS230 along with the checklist... Do you guys know what will happen? I am going to fax the correct forms tomorrow. I hope i didn't give them reason not to give me the visa during my interview. I'm really so worried. I dont think i can sleep tonight... :blink: :blink: :blink:

CanadaInterview Date Set
yes, my k3 interview is in 3 days and i am really anxious at the same time worried of the outcome.

I'm thinking of doing CR1, i'll wait in the states with my husband while the process is still going. If i'll have my interview date then i'll go back to my home country atleast, if i get approved, i'll have my immigrant visa and not worry about adjusting status.
mamalovesdadaFemale02007-09-09 01:49:00

NVC. My husband and i have not talked about it yet wether to go for CR1 - which is i need to go back to my home country. If not, proceed with AOS. Right now, we are just looking forward to being together. (",)

Yup, never hurts to call and ask if they can accomodate your request. Would a later date help? You could also ask if they cannot schedule you in earlier if they can get you a later date.



:thumbs: Hey vanee? what time is your interview? Yeah i guess that's the soonest date eh? i might as well stick to that. Don't wanna ruin anything... :unsure:
