K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresMust copies of documents be notarized
NOTHING need to be notarized or certified.

Anything sent to USCIS must be accompanied by an English Translation, the Translation does NOT need to be done by a professional, just someone fluent in both languages.

QUOTE
  • Please submit certified translations for all foreign language documents. The translator must certify that s/he is competent to translate and that the translation is accurate.

    The certification format should include the certifier's name, signature, address, and date of certification. A suggested format is:

    Certification by Translator

    I [typed name], certify that I am fluent (conversant) in the English and ________ languages, and that the above/attached document is an accurate translation of the document attached entitled ______________________________.

    Signature_________________________________

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresStill not sure what to do... K1 or K3 any advice?
K-3 is NOT faster than a K-1.

You need to first marry to file for the Spousal visa.

K-3 also need I-130 filed first for (CR-1) adding weeks while waiting for it's NOA1 letter before you could file the OPTIONAL I-129F to start the optional K-3 process.

Note it you are in the deciding mode, do some research, USCIS has all but eliminated the reason the K-3 exists. K-3 was developed at a time when it was taking a LONG time to approve the I-130 for a spousal visa, K-3 allowed spouse to enter the USA and wait for I-130 approval before they could them move on and interview for a spousal visa or adjust status. Since USCIS has been tieing the I-129F and I-130 together for K-3 and approving them at the same time, this eliminates the whole reason for K-3 (Entry and waiting for I-130 approval). FORGET the K-3, you can get a CR1 spousal visa in just about the same time as K-3.

K-1:
($100 more than K-3) ($1596)

K-3:
I-130: $355
I-129F: NONE
Consulate: $131
Adjustment Of Status: $1010 I-485
($1496)

CR-1
I-130: $355
NVC I-864: $70
NVC Visa fee: $400 ($355+$45)
($825)

I see many posts from K-3 holders stating, "Wow this sucks, I am stuck at home because I don't have EAD, DL, etc, or I am having hard time getting added to bank accounts because of NO SSN." K-3 has a 90 day or longer period of limbo while waiting for EAD or Green-card.

K-3 was developed at a time when CR-1 was taking much longer that today, NVC and USCIS has greatly streamlined the CR-1 process to the point where K-3 becomes irrelevant.

If it is a clear and legible copy when it prints and IF the certification stamp, court filing stamp or whatever makes it "official" is clearly visible, then it will be fine BUT the translation needs to be an original, so kind of a moot point.

Thanks...everything is nice and legible but the certification stamp is red and if I print it out Im sure it will be in black and white
Actuly they both can be photocopies. This was the case for us when filing for a visa, and when adjusting status, NOT aproblem.

I highly recommend that you do a few things before filing the I-129F.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresFiancee's ability to work in US.
QUOTE (MikeA @ Jun 2 2009, 02:56 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
My fiancee holds a degree in Education and was a scholar. I am trying to get her certified in Florida so she can teach here upon arrival. Will the Embassy view her degree and the fact she is a Certified Licensed Teacher as a plus in evaluating her as less likely to becoming a public charge. My I-134 should hopefully be adequate as well, but you never know. Any opinions?

Note a K-1 is NOT a work visa it is a FIANCEE visa, as such will not be able to hit the ground running and take a job.

The K-1 first needs to marry, and the file to adjust status, and apply for an EAD and have the EAD card or Green-card in hand to take a job.

I-9 required to be filled out by an employer requires EAD (CARD), Green-card, or I-551 stamp to satisfy employment authorization requirements. The socalled EAD stamp issued at JFK no longer satisfies the I-9 requirements.

If work shortly after entry is a priority then marry first and file for a CR-1 IMMIGRANT visa. The CR-1 gets an I-551 stamp on entry.

Hi all,

I have a quick question regarding my employment history in US.
My fiancee is going to file in the I-129F packet soon and I am filling out the G-325A forms where I need to state previous employers.

In the past I have worked in US during my J-1 visa internship for one compony for 18 months. During this time I have found another employer and worked there too (carried 2 jobs). I paid taxes in both places and everything by law was done correctly. My concern is that according to J-1 visa instructions I was not eligible to work for second employer.

Does it matter if I put this second employer on G-325A form? Or maybe I should not list it there because they will dig it out as illegal employment or something?

I will appreciate your comments on this one and looking forward to hearing from you.

Thx



First - are you an USC?


Second, you should never omit accurate info on these forms. It can be construed as misrepresentation of the facts. If you paid taxes, then the jobs are in the system.
The OP is the foreign citizen, they mentioned working on J-1 visa.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Proceduresbetter to be engaged or married?
Makes no difference.

Also if you are considering the K-3 you are better off considering the CR-1. K-3 is an OPTIONAL visa type for persons doing CR-1 or IR-1 spousal visas.

The K-3 is no longer a relevant visa type, it was developed at a time when I-130 for spousal visa was taking a year or longer to process through USCIS, in this case the K-3 allowed entry to the USA to wait for I-130 approval, so that the couple can either adjust status or interview for the spousal visa, since USCIS has begun approving I-129F AND I-130 on the same date, this eliminates the whole reason for K-3 (Entry and waiting for I-130 approval).

K-3:
I-130: $355
I-129F: NONE
Consulate: $131
Adjustment Of Status: $1010 I-485
($1496)

CR-1
I-130: $355

I see many posts from K-3 holders stating, "Wow this sucks, I am stuck at home because I don't have EAD, DL, etc, or I am having hard time getting added to bank accounts because of NO SSN." K-3 has a 90 day or longer period of limbo while waiting for EAD or Green-card.

Yes, it's exactly that - severe financial loss. The rest I cannot disagree more on though - he paid for semester after getting enrolled into University because he might still get here on time. But since the K1 is getting delayed, he might not make it and his enrollment for semester will be void, but the money is non-returnable!. So how is that not a sever financial loss? There should be other scenarios than cleaning out the house by family members. What scenario is accepted or not will I guess depend on the officer who reviews it. My question was more about - what IF they decide the reason was not good enough - can that negatively affect entire K1 process?
I don't know why people plan things hoping that a visa will be approved within a set timeline. I read all the time how a delayed K-1 spoils things like weddings, honeymoons, flight reservations, etc.. Note there is NO guarantee that your fiancee will get the visa, the visa may be denied.

Sounds like your fiancee is planning on going to school in the USA?? Why the K-1, why not a F-1 student visa?

In this case if you used a student visa to come to the USA and eventually got married, this is plausible, your fiancee has evidence the primary intent when using the visa is SCHOOL, not immigrations.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Proceduresstop K-1 and apply for tourist visa instead?
Keep the K-1 moving, It has a 6 months validity after it is issued.

You still can visit while waiting for the K-1, however visiting AFTER one is issued without using the K-1 can be tricky, sometimes POE allows entry on VWP or a visitors visa without canceling the K-1, sometimes they don't.

OR you can do as you say "Withdraw" the K-1 petition and then later do a Spousal visa. And FORGET the OPTIONAL K-3 visa. K-3 is NOT an option when doing DCF, it requires that you file I-130 to USCIS in the USA, and then filing an I-129F to start the OPTIONAL K-3 process.

NOTE: K-3 was developed as an OPTION when I-130 was taking a year or longer to process through USCIS. Since USCIS has begun the practice of tying I-130 and I-129F together and approving them at the same time, this effectively eliminates the reason the K-3 exists (Entry to USA and WAITING for I-130 approval)

US citizen files the I-129F for the K-1 visa, this is done only after divorce is final.

As for support, this is not an issue when filing the I-129F, it is an issue at the time of visa interview.

US Embassy UK does consider foreign citizen's assets for support, and also income ONLY if the income will continue after UK citizen moves to the USA.

If Casablanca does not require the I-134, then how do they know whether or not I meet the income requirement?
In the case of a K-1 visa you have 90 days to marry or leave. The I-864 filed for adjustment of status handles this. Keep in mind the I-134 is considered to be non-binding so the consulate simply waives it. They use it if they feel that the intending immigrant WILL become a charge of the state, they can stall and demand evidence that the intending immigrant wont become a charge of the state.

Two things, I-134 is NEVER filed with I-129F when initially filing for a K-Visa, it is always brought to visa interview.


Secondly, Casablanca does not use or require the I-134, but is a good idea to have one handy at the interview just in case.

**Although instructions in packet 3 do not request an I-134 affidavit of support, it would be a good idea to have one ready just in case as an interviewer may choose not to grant the visa unless that form has been provided at the interview.**
