K-3 Spouse Visa Process & Procedures	Affidavit and Losing A Job...	Yeah that could be an option I guess. I still don't understand why the 'foreign party' can't have a family member to sign for that as well. I could have been living with my love for at least a year now if that would have been possible. So many people have offered me to become my sponsor and so many times I had to explain why that isn't allowed by the US. Ugh. Just how much proof do they need to know you'll be able to make it work together. It's frustrating because I know I could get a healthcare job over there and in time so will he again. Too big a risk I suppose. Thanks for your quick response though! We'll just have to stop moping and keep the faith that all things will evolve as they should.

K-3 Spouse Visa Process & Procedures	Affidavit and Losing A Job...	Anyone got any experience with the latest development concerning the economic crash? Me and my man Tommy got engaged in the US last November during my last visit. I'm Dutch, he's an American citizen from Alabama. So I've been traveling between our two countries for 2 years now. Our problem is that Tom lost his job last year, just around the time we got engaged and wanted to start up the K1-visa procedure. But you know the drill: no income = no visa. Which means they're keeping thousands of couples apart right now... Plus the economy started crashing rapidly so jobs are hard to find these days. We simply don't know what to do anymore. It's very frustrating. I have all the right (and legalized) credentials / recommendations as a therapist (and a steady income) in the Netherlands but we really wanna start our life together in Alabama. Tom's got a house for sale but since the housing market crashed as well it might take some time to sell. I've started applying for AL jobs myself but they're not very keen on foreigners it seems. I simply get no response at all. I know there are many more couple like us in the same terrible position right now. We seem to be waiting forever for the smoke to clear up... Any bit of advice or help will be greatly appreciated!	Frouke77	Female	Netherlands	2009-04-24 04:53:00
