K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Proceduresk1 visa..beneficiary working abroad.
QUOTE (filipinawife @ Oct 18 2007, 11:01 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
hello to everyone,

this site has been so helpful to me when my husband and I are still processing my spouse visa.Now im already in the US...happy together with the man i love..im so thankful to all the members who were so unselfish in sharing their knowledge to me and to other who needed help.

this question is not for me though.its for a friend.just want to know if its possible for someone working abroad to be petitioned on a Ki visa without going back to his/her home country . been trying to search bout this topic but to no avail.

thanks so much.


Hello! I am a filipina and currently working here in Singapore. We are on process of K1 and my interview will be here in Singapore too. So no problem with her as long as she has all the documents with her.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresI-129F papers mailed! It begins...
QUOTE (trinner @ Nov 1 2007, 02:30 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
Hello all. I've been vising this website for a couple of months now gathering information for our K1 submission. Wow - what a wealth of invaluable information and reassuring documentation!

It is a little scary mailing all of these K1 documents since you never feel sure that you have done everything correctly... so I suppose it is only appropriate that I mailed them today on Halloween. wink.gif

I just wanted to say that I'm very thankful for this amazing resource... this is such a difficult time to go through (being away from your loved one, dealing with mountainous government requirements and paperwork, etc)... I would hate to think of going through it without all of this first hand knowledge and examples.

So - thank you!

And now the waiting...


WELCOME TO VJ... I hpe everything will be fine for your journey yes.gif


Are we there yet??

Dear Fellow VJrs',
I just want to share my good news regrading my case, my Fiance' received a letter from NVC stating this:

Dear Petitioner,
The State Department's National Visa Center has recently received an approved I-129F petition filed on behalf of your fiance'. This letter is to let you know that within a week the petition will be forwarded to the appropriate visa-issuing post where your visa interview will take place.

Our records show that you filed the I-129F petition for:
MOSSYCOUPLE
INS Receipt Number: WAC071XXXXXXXX

Case Number: SGPXXXXXXXXXX

The case will be processed at:
Post: SINGAPORE
EMBASSY OF THE UNITED STATES, VISA UNIT
27 NAPIER ROAD
SINGAPORE 258508
REPUBLIC OF SINGAPORE

Your fiance' will soon receive a packet with instructions from the consular section on how to apply for the K1 visa at that post and what documents will be required.
Sincerely,
Bureau of Consular Affairs

Was she under 18 when the indiscretions occurred? There are some countries in which police certificates cannot be obtained.

no she was not under 18


Then she needs to get a police clearance


* Police certificate from all places lived since age 16

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Proceduresforms in the packet
QUOTE (journeyman @ Nov 26 2007, 01:16 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
K-1 is technically a Non-Immigrant Visa.

We processed in India we had to fill out all the forms you mentioned above in your original post. We also had to fill out DS 230 Part 2 but signed only in front of the officer in the consulate.


Thanks for the info journeyman! Now i can fill them out any doubts!

Until now I am still trying to fill -out the forms the consulate sent me. Last night, I notice DS-230 Part I, Biographic Data. included in the packet. Is this an error on their part of sending me this form because I am a k1 applicant which falls under Immigrant Visa type. Or this is really intended for me to fill it out too?

Please help....

Forms that was in the packet:

1 Form DS-230 Part I, Biographic Data
2 Form DS-156 Nonimmigrant Visa Application
3 Form DS-156 (K) Nonimmigrant FianceeVisa Application
4 Form I-134 Affidavit of Support
5 Medical Examination Instructions

Unless the K1 process in Manila has changed recently . It was a mistake you receiving the DS 230.
You just should have got the DS 156, DS 156K and maybe the DS 157.


I am processing in Singapore right now Haole.

QUOTE (kyla @ Dec 19 2007, 07:39 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
Forgive me if this question has already been addressed, but I have not been able to find any info on it so far... When I sent in my I-129f, I included the originals for birth certificates, divorce papers, etc ( I didn't want to risk any problems with copies!!) and now I see that they require originals for the package 3. Do I need to get new originals, or will they already have the ones I sent in with the I-129f?


You have to bring all original documents during the interview and some are also notarized. Good luck!

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresDS157 Document question
QUOTE (ScottnCati @ Dec 27 2007, 09:50 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
Hi Everyone,

We are near the end of our journey, we wait the interview letter as the Embassy in Brazil received our documents from NVC today.

My Question:
We are filling out Form DS157 and there are a few places that the space available is not large enough in questions 12, and 17(work, and school history) also the dates of employment, and dates attended do not accept more the 1 mm/dd/yyyy format.

What is the best resolution for this?

Thanks for all your help !!!

Hi you can use a separate sheet of paper if you think there's no enough space for you to write.

Goodluck!

Convinced her to get an annulment first because she or they will waste time, effort and money for the processing and in the end she will be denied with the visa. The consulate will still find out of her previous marriage.

I think you have to call the embassy and re-schedule your interview date with them.


Dear Mossycouple ,
I already paid the fee 100 USD on 29Dec'07 because I didn't know before that my boyfriend will lost the documents before he can send to me ,

Just incase that if I re-schedule my interview date that will be on Feb'08 (someday ) and the US Fee will change from 100 USD to 131 USD ,

How long I have time to add my boyfriend documents ?

Best Regards and Thanks for all your help
Sirikun K.



Better to contact the embassy before the interview so they can advise on what's the best thing that you can do.

I just got through IAH as my POE last tuesday, with my K1 visa.
I've given the immigration officier the brown enveloppe, but i've missed to give them the white one unsure.gif that contain the chest xray and the vaccination form filled by the doctor before the interview at the embassy.
should i call them to see if i have to send it to them or just keep it for AOS?
Thank you for your answer good.gif

You should keep the vaccination form for the processing of your AOS. Unless they ask for your chest xray, its Ok thats you have missed giving it to them.
