K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresCrossed out personal check, is it okay?

 

He still has his name on it. He just lined out the ex-wife's name and the old address. 

 

You misunderstood what I said so I'll rephrase.  Did he write the first letter of his first name and the first letter of his last name next to the line he wrote through the ex's name on the check.  If so, then it the fact that the line out is through the ex's name should not be an issue.

I believe you  should send copy of fiancé`s passport info and signature page....

 

This is not needed.

 

To the OP, just a word on semantics, an I-129F is a petition form, not an application form.  With that out of the way, your list looks good.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresI-129 versus I-130 opinion!

I know with your K1 you get 90 days for the employment authorization document



Incorrect, to obtain an EAD without having applied for AOS, it would have to be applied for and a fee would have to be paid. Furthermore, it would only be valid for the length of the I-94, so it may only be in-hand a short time before the I-94 expires or it may never be in hand before the I-94 expires.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresVisa Denied because I am ugly???

When I try to get the number for the Vermont Center, I keep getting the National Customer Service for USCIS. I am trying to find the KEV as you suggested.

 

You're calling the wrong people, Darnell is telling you to call the NVC (a State Department entity) to obtain the case number if you don't already have it.  The first 3 letters of the case number would start with KEV.  Once you have that number, he is then telling you to call the State Department's visa hotline and ask for a case status using that case number from the NVC.

Will you be living at the address that your fiancee currently lives at, if so, then that is the address you list.  If you and your fiancee will be living at a different address from the current one, then list the future address (if known).

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures2 Important Questions about keeping the same answers throughout and reapplying if denied

We shouldn't add extra information onto the DS-156, that we forgot to put on the DS-230, right?

 

Wrong, you need to answer this question honestly, no matter how trivial it may seem. An updated DS-230 can be brought to the interview.

 

2.) Also, if for some reason they deny the Visa because of any small mistakes, what would be a normal/acceptable time to re-apply? Would we have to start from square one (i.e. I-129-F)?
 
Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks.

 

Concentrate on putting the correct information on the forms. Small mistakes can mean big problems down the road.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresK1 visa, confused about payment and amount

She is not be eligible for an SSN until she becomes a US resident.  Unless she is required to file a US tax return, she is not eligible for an ITIN unless you are already married.

 

A photocopy of both sides of your credit card is unacceptable for a petition filing.  An actual check or money order drawn on funds from a US financial institution must accompany the package.  The guide you read about credit cards being acceptable is only applicable when paying fees at a stateside field office in-person.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresPassport expiration data

I'll answer the second question first, if you have to obtain a new passport, it will not be an issue.

 

For the first question, you need to find out from the Embassy if they require that a passport have a minimum length of validity (e.g. 6 months) or not.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresNoA 2 Validity Date

I guess I still don't understand your response concerning "no action on your part".



The "no action on your part" means the petitioner or beneficiary does not have to contact the Embassy in order to have them re-validate the petition in order for an interview take place. I see the updated letter of intent applying to all countries, not just the UK.


Ryan HMaleChina2013-10-08 10:51:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresNoA 2 Validity Date

***Moved from UK regional forum to K1 Process & Procedures; OP's question about NOA2 validity dates is not limited to one specific country.***

 

**Moderator hat off**

 

 

For London it does require action...a new letter of intent that has been notarized. It is taken to the interview. The packet 3 letter tells the beneficiary that.

 

The OP's question was not about an updated letter of intent to marry, it was solely about the expiration date on the NOA2 which has nothing to do with an updated letter of intent.  My answer to the OP was the Embassy has the ability to re-validate the petition if an interview has not taken place by the expiration date on the NOA2, I also correctly stated the re-validation of the petition by the Embassy requires no action on the part of the OP and I also correctly stated that re-validation of petitions is common and routine.

If an address will not fit on the form itself, don't abbreviate; instead, write "see attached" on the form itself and use a separate sheet of paper to write out the address in full.  This is perfectly ok to do on the G-325A, like the I-129F, be sure to reference the question being answered on the supplemental sheet.
