K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsRecieved our RFE last night. Here is what it says and what we are sending back. Is it ok?

Hum... I don't quite get it. I don't see how they would confirm that all the copies of the individual pages belong to the same passport. The page numbers wouldn't absolutely connect each page to the same passport. Does USCIS actually requires copies of all pages, or this is just a suggestion? I'd save some paper if possible. Lol

 

Let's say, how would page 17 (that has no stamps or a form of eye readable id) confirm or proof that page 8 (the one with the stamps i need them to see) belongs to my passport. In my case I won't be sending page 17 unless USCIS requires it.

 

Thanks

We got the same RFE long time ago, you need to send whole passport copy everypage of passport

 

Can you confirm that you actually mean EVERY PAGE,  or just the page with all the travelers ID, picture, and info, plus the entry pages with the stamps?

 

Thanks

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsI am so done with this!!

 

It takes 5-10 business days if you have him send it priority. My fiance is from Argentina too, and we're almost at the interview point, so don't worry there's hope!

 

Make sure you BOTH sign a letter of intent (one from each of you). I recommend signing the papers in blue ink (and filling them out/writing them in black ink) on a magazine so the imprint of the pen is visible.

 

Sometimes they suspect that the signature isn't original and send RFEs for that. Just so you avoid that!

 

So... the intent letter from my fiance (who is in Guatemala) will need to be an original with the signature?? Like I'm expecting a RFE on that and asked her to print it, sign it, scan it, and send it back to me on a email. Can some one confirm if this is wrong or acceptable? I thought they would ask to bring original documents for the interview.

 

Thanks

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsNOA2 Email on a Saturday Yay!!!!!

Congrats! I didn't know they worked on Saturdays either. I was just having this conversation with my fiancee and we wondered whether we should even check our status on Saturdays and we both concluded 'no'. I've changed my mind now!!

 

I might be crazy, but I even check on Sundays. To make it even worst, I check multiple times on Sundays too! hahahahah

 

I'm glad to know they actually sneak out some cases on Saturdays. I hope some of them enjoy working overtime on Sundays too.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsDenied K-1 - finally got response - says cash and sexual favors demanded in exchange for immigrant petition

They don't have access to your facebook login, or email login, or anything else.  But if they want to they can google you.  With the amount of visa's being processed there isn't enough time in the world for the DoS to investigate everyone thoroughly.

 

 

 

This is what I always believed. I read on that other post that they have asked for log in info at some interviews. I know we all can be googled, and FB and other social profiles stored online can be visited.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsDenied K-1 - finally got response - says cash and sexual favors demanded in exchange for immigrant petition

 

I remember one person's review of their embassy interview and the interviewer had the interviewee's FB page open in front of them!

 

If it was just their public FB page, I can take that as OK to do. With all the information you provide and the pictures, I'm sure any of them can find you on FB. Specially if you set it to public.

 

My question was if they actually access, like if it was you logged in.

Everything can be accessed. Nothing is private that you put out there anymore. They can get their hands on whatever they want

whether you submit it or not. 

 

Wait... are you saying like... they can access my emails and facebooks accounts??? - kind of... dumb... but... How?

I was wondering if any of the May fillers still waiting on response are starting yo worry about sending an inquiry.

 

Out of a group of 20 consecutive case numbers, there only 3 on initial review including mine. I hope we all see some response soon!

 

My NOA1 --> 5/10/2013. Last transfer update was on 8/09/2013 from Vermont to Texas.

 

Thanks

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsAn "impossible" I-129F just got APPROVED! THANKS THE LORD!

Don't want to rain on your parade, really, you overcame something huge, but realize getting the I-129F approved is the easy part. It's the interview you want to ace.

 

Thanks everyone!

 

I thought the hard part was getting this approval. At interview they are just going to ask questions about our relationship (our family) to make sure is real. Correct?


Eliezer y WendyMaleGuatemala2013-11-27 19:28:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsAn "impossible" I-129F just got APPROVED! THANKS THE LORD!

It was "impossible" to get an approval according to many VJ members, lawyers, and others because we didn't meet  within the two years immediately prior to the initial I-129F form. Well, we got RFE, I replied with my explanation and some documents to proof the situation I was living raising our newborn , and they APPROVED US!

 

I really thanks God for this approval and USCIS for understanding.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsK1 DENIED WE CAN'R BELIVE THIS???

I'm with this:
 

You would need to wait for the hard copy of the denial notice to see whether it would be best to reapply from scratch or appeal. 90% of the time it's best just to resubmit, since (i) you need to show it was USCIS' error, not yours, to have any chance of success in an appeal, and (ii) it's usually faster just to reapply, since an appeal would take around a year to do.

 
Wait for your denial notice so you learn why you were denied without any RFE. You said you checked almost everyday and there was never an update between initial review and your denial notification, right? I'm assuming you get at least email notification when your case is updated, and you are sure that there was never a notification that a RFE was sent.
 
I couldn't find an old post where people discussed the reason of a denial without any RFE and at the USCIS stage. I'd look around the forum while you wait for your actual denial notice on the mail.
 
Sorry this happened to you. Hope there is some work around at the end.

I'm wondering why my case doesn't specify where is being processed. It only says "at a local USCIS office". I called two weeks ago and they couldn't tell me witch office was processing my case either.

What's up with that? I feel like calling again... It was last transferred on 8/9/13

Looking at your timeline... If your A# didn't changed shortly after NOA1, maybe then it's a good sign for you that your NOA2 is near.. Goodluck


Thanks... I only remember my case being touched because my fiance (beneficiary) moved and I sent to update her address.


By the way Congress representative sent an inquiry about my case two days ago.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresVisiting and Submitting more evidence after I-129F's NOA1

So I received NOA1 on May 10, 2013 for my for my fiance in Guatemala. I recently purchased a one way ticket for me and our son to go visit her on August 22. I'm hoping and praying our NOA2 comes next month so we might be able to come back together. Yeah I have a lot of faith in God!

 

Anyway, I'm wondering if there is a way to submit or if I must follow any steps since I'm leaving the country for a little time while the petition is in process. I have family members that will be checking my mailbox while I'm out, although I also get email notifications for my case.

 

I also found some other evidence that I wished I sent in my I-129F packaged the first time. Is there a way to send additional evidence before their decision or NOA2?

 

Thanks...


Eliezer y WendyMaleGuatemala2013-07-30 08:45:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresWhat did you write on back of photos? Our I-129f so far, Mailing options?

The photos I submitted were taken with a digital camera. I took that SD card and went to walmart to print the pictures for the I-129F, and the dates they were taken was automatically imprinted in the back. I didn't write anything extra. I wish I would've thought about it just to make sure.

 

Good luck!

Eliezer y WendyMaleGuatemala2013-08-02 10:54:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresWhen will I need to prepare the afidavit for my I-129F K-1?
In the USCIS website says that I don't submit the affidavit of support until my fiance enters and we are ready to adjust the status to permanent resident. In some posts I see comments about bringing the affidavit paperwork to the interview. Witch one is correct?

Since I'm going to visit my fiance in Guatemala and hopefully stay there to come back together (I have a lot of faith in God), I wanted to get all that ready. As of right now I don't meet the income requirement to sponsor my fiance, so I was counting my dad would do that for me if this is ok to do. The problem is that my dad is serving as affidavit for his daughter and the husband of another of my sisters. We want to make sure he will be able to serve as affidavit on 3 different cases.

I'd really appreciate any advice.

Thanks

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresGuatemala Strange Mailing Address: Problem to receive packages?
I just came from Huehuetenango, Guatemala. They told me in the area that if some one sends any package or letter, a messenger will first come to the are and call to meet with the recipient. The messenger would verify the recipient's ID to give them a notice or ticket to go pick up the package or letter at their local post office.

So mo much to worry about getting the packages to my fiance in Guatemala.

My fiance lives in an "Aldea" outside of the city in Guatemala, and her mailing address doesn't have a house number or even a street address. We researched if there was any kind of PO box service that we could use but she didn't find any.

Does anybody have any kind of experience with mailing addresses in Guatemala or any solution we could use to avoid any delays?
