K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresPhoto required?
If you have a digital copy just use the government website to size it correctly and have it printed here.

Dept of State Photo tool

I used this for the NVC stage as my husband sent me ones not even in size. Worked great!

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresPhoto required?
Yes, it is required.
Just have her mail you one express. It should be recent - it is supposed to be within 30 days of filing.

I actually do. Would that substitute the boarding pass or plane ticket?

Yes, the stamps are proof of travel, dated in and out - so that should be good to use.

Thank you my friend. It was really helpful and our case seem to be familiar. Are the plane tickets or boarding pass required?

Under his tips he said Cambodia does not accept plane tickets or boarding passes, however I am pretty certain a copy of the visa/passport stamps would be looked at.

Thank you. It was very helpful. So what if you don't have plan tickets or boarding pass but just have the itineraries?

Don't you have some copy of a visa or stamp in your passport? That works.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresFacebook Chat---Ongoing relationship

Well, do you think facebook chat is enough because that's all we have? We only either chat on facebook or viber/tango calls?

Not all by itself, no. You are required to have met each other within 2 years before you can apply for a K-1 visa. Have you done that? If so include things like pictures, proof of travel... passport stamps, receipts, etc. Do you use any other form of communication at all besides the two you mentioned? Have you sent anything by snail mail? I would assume you have something else other then just Facebook if you think about it.

They will need proof of a bona-fide relationship. Facebook is an option for a small piece of proof.

No. Hard copy proof only.
No videos, DVD/CDs, USB drives, etc. No electronic copy of anything.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresWhich office do I send the petition to?

I read the instructions and even went on the internet to read about lockboxes lol. I was looking for a short cut by mailing to the local lockbox but it looks like the safest bet will be the Dallas center. There are no short cuts I guess.

Correct!
There is no shortcut in immigration - only careful handling on your part. Be very certain of what you tun in and turn it in as soon as requested and I am sure all will be good. Sounds like you are on the right path!

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresWhich office do I send the petition to?

All K1 petitions go to Texas now, all of them. Other lockboxes are for other immigration issues.

Exactly.
My concern for you is these are the only addresses in the actual I-129F PDF Instructions. I understand you found other addresses online, but did you get a chance to read the full I-129F instructions yet? You will want to make sure you do as this will give you the list of everything required to send. Maybe I am just a bit "detail oriented", but I read my instructions like 10 times to make sure I had everything. If you have, then great! But if not, you might want to before it's too late :star:

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresSpeed ticket
Hi all. I got a speeding ticket yesterday or some kind of violation while my fiancé was here in Germany visiting me.. We rent a car and he was driving so I got a letter that we got a violation somehow and I guess it's a speeding ticket. Will that affect the whole visa process? I already got my police certificate ready to send to the embassy when the noa2 arrives.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresWedding after entering with k1
Thank you. It's Washington Seattle.,I think it's ok , it says on the website that it is legal if an authorized person performs the ceremony. I'm still kind of worrying though. Hm.

"
The person who performs the marriage ceremony (officiant) will retain this copy for their records.

The Marriage License provides notice to the officiant that he/she is authorized to perform the marriage ceremony of the parties named on the license only between (and including) the dates specified on the license.

The officiant can be any justice or judge of Washington State supreme court, court of appeals, courts of limited jurisdiction, or superior court commissioners, or any regularly licensed or ordained minister or priest of any church or religious denomination.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresWedding after entering with k1
I have a question about the wedding. The brother of my fiancé got a license so he can marry us when I arrive there. Is this going to be a problem (valid)or should the wedding be performed by a judge or a priest? We are both not religious so we thought either a court house or a beautiful ceremony at his garden. ( courthouse wasn't my first option though )

Tell your fiancee to call USCIS and double check with them. It could have been a typo.

This is bothering me for some time. I was born and raised in Germany and I am Greek (Greek parents). Since they got a divorce I've been Germany-Greece, Went to college here then living in Greece for some time and worked there, was fired, decided to start something new in Germany since its my second country in my field of studies, then Greece again and then again here with a nice job.. So.. how should I explain that in the interview because it's weird.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresK-1 and HPV

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresK-1 and HPV
I searched that because I'm concerned too. Since 2008 I thin HPV is NOT a reason for denial and the vaccination is not necessary. I'm 30 and I didn't make the vaccination.

My German VJ friend told me when I asked her, that they don't test for HPV . Also the pill is not a reason for denial too.
