you need to show both parties in the same place at the same time... if you meet in a 3rd location, then what you propose is what you need to do.. present both person's travel activities..

I-134 is at the consulate many months from now... you have time to study up...

We will be submitting the I-129F in a week. I presume I will need my Affidavit of Support in about 5 or 6 months. My question is this. I did not work last year. I took 2 trips to the Philippines plus one trip this last Feb. to be with my fiancee. I will submit tax returns from the years prior plus I am starting to work now so I will be have adequate annual income to show for this year. Not having a tax return for last year? will that be a big negative for me?


Yes. You need to either provide a tax return or a reason you did not file one. You will also need to do this for the AOS. I would submit the explanation plus the previous years return (2007) plus your docuentation of current employment and income.



The reason I will provide for not working is that I took a sabbatical plus went to the Philippines 3 times. Which is why I did not work. Do you think this is an adequate reason? I hope, because it is the truth


i made a stupid mistake made a typo on my I-134 on my fiancee last name and middle name spelled wrong what to do can my fiancee scratch out name and write maganda


Is it a bad thing if the consulate sees that the petitioner does not even know how to spell his future wife's name?

It's stated "long form BC", same for french marriage transcription....


If you are filing the I-129F a BC for the USC is NOT required and can use the US Passport instead in order to prove citizenship.

What Documents Do You Need to Show That You Are a U.S. Citizen?
A. If you were born in the United States, give USCIS a copy, front and back, of your birth certificate.
1. Your original Certificate of Citizenship, or
2. Your Form FS-240 (Report of Birth Abroad of a United States Citizen).
B. If you were naturalized, give USCIS a copy, front and back, of your original Certificate of Naturalization.
C. If you were born outside the United States and you are a U.S. citizen through your parents, give USCIS:
D. In place of any of the above, you may give USCIS a copy of your valid, unexpired U.S. passport issued with a validity period of at least five years. You must submit copies of all pages in the passport.

QUOTE (EasternDE @ Jun 6 2009, 03:12 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
Hello...

I've been reading this forum for like a year waiting for my man to finally propose.
And he did. I'm going back to the US as a visitor in 3 weeks, we'll start to fill the forms then.
So for now we're gathering all documents.

Let's be honest, my american fiancé is a monkey when it comes to paperwork or organisation.
So we need his birth certificate (the long form, yeah i've been reading the guides over and over again).
And tadaaaa, he doesn't know in which county he was born!
So at least, he knows he was born in St. Louis Missouri, but there are two countys, St. Louis and St Louis City.
He's got no clue which one it is... He lost his parents so he has no one to ask.
He's got a passport though, of course; but this is it. He doesn't know which hospital neither...

Anyone's got an idea where should we ask to get this information?

I thought that maybe we could make the resquest to Saint Louis, and if it's not there I guess they check Saint Louis City but well...
Or would it be written St. Louis City on his passport if that's were he was born?

Help...!


He needed his BC to get his passport... How did he do that?

FWIW, You have got his passport why do you need his BC?

what your future wife needs in order to travel back to Mexico will be contingent on timing.... If it is before her greencard then advance parole will absolutely be required.

If the child will follow less than 6 mos. after the K-1 then the child could get the K-2 issued at the same time as the visa is valid for 6 mos. after issuance. When you fiancee goes to CDJ for her interview, put the consulate on notice regarding "follow-to-join". Have them explain exactly how they do it. That will be the best source of information

My fiance and I will have been talking for a year now online. I was just wondering for anyone who is a seasoned vet of the visa process could help me.... I have only been able to see my Fiancee once since we have started talking. Now, she has come to the US this last April-May and has her I-94 with a stamp and boarding passes sent w/ the I-129F package plus about 8 photos with me and my parents all dated and described. Will this be enough to prove a legit relationship? We would love to see each other more but the economy has been hard on both of us in the last year and international travel is a little too rich for our bank accts right now. I know it says you only have to provide proof that you have at least met in the last 2 years and it was hard financially just to arrange her trip to visit me here, I just worry that our relationship might be viewed as "For immigration purposes only" We really love each other very much and are willing to go through this visa hell together, we just are not rich and cannot just up and jet set around the world. What do you think?


existence of a bonifide relationship will be "judged" later by Moscow... USCIS won't pass any judgement or make any determination on this issue...

You're not stupid, You just probably have never had to jump through bureaucratic process before (like most of us). Follow the guide for the K-1 package on this site, make sure you sign and date every thing, make sure you send all 4 G-325A forms. The guide on this site is pretty helpful. Just triple check everything make sure nothing is left for uscis to question. There is no limit to the supporting evidence that you may send. Visa stamps, boarding passes, photos w/ dates, persons, and locale are all good supporting evidence. Most of the people on this sight are very helpful and will give you their honest, sometimes brutal opinions, but yet this site is an indispensable resource. Good luck with your package, take your time putting it together, I know you want to send it as fast as possible but take a week or two and make sure you feel comfortable and confident you have all your ducks in a row so to speak. Good luck!

QUOTE (Battle Geek @ Jun 9 2009, 05:19 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
assuming that non-visa waiver means she has a tourist visa?
---------------------------------------------------------------------

I thought you could only apply for one kind of visa at a time? Wouldn't a B-1 application and a K-1 conflict?
Australia is a NVWP country, it's how she visited last time we met - THAT time we had a lot of trouble, border
agent must have asked us if we were getting married about 1,000 times. We'd been talking for maybe 6 months
online but we had actually only just met each other in real life, kind of put us on the spot, he finally took pity on
us though and issued her an I-94 (which we forgot about a month later when I drove her to the Vancouver
airport -- we had to mail that back in a hurry).


Let's get some facts straight

1) Nobody has applied for a visa yet... You have petitioned the USCIS to determine eligibility of your fiancee to apply for a visa at a future date. The USCIS does NOT issue visas... that is left to the consulates

2) Australia is a VWP (visa waiver program country) not a Non visa waiver program (which would actually mean that a visa is needed)

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresHomecoming from Iraq, can she visit
QUOTE (Battle Geek @ Jun 9 2009, 03:02 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
First time poster, long time reader, I'll keep it brief. I'm forward deployed to Iraq, filed an I-129F on my Australian fiancee's behalf that
was received by USCIS on April 24th. By the time I come home there should still be 70-90 days of waiting until K-1 approval, I am on a
tight deployment schedule, we can't afford to wait that out, we need to see each other - this deployment has been tough and we are very
eager to be reunited. The plan is to fly her to the US and seek admission with a non-visa waiver, then fly her back to Australia once we get
our 2nd NOA.

According to CBP weather or not she can be admitted while a K-1 is pending is entirely up to the discretion of the customs officer at the
airport, doesn't leave a lot to work with so I'd like some advice as to how we can convince them she intends to return to Australia. She'll
be able to provide statements from school and work that she's expected back, but will that be enough? She's basically a poor student
sharing a flat with her brother (sadly, no lease in her name), and having a K-1 on file signals intent to immigrate, I haven't heard of many
Australians having trouble entering the US, but we'd like some peace of mind here, she'd have to fly 18 hours and we're both a little
nervous about this. Thanks in advance, any advice welcome

QUOTE (chrisc85 @ Jun 8 2009, 01:11 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
Hey everyone, I'm going to be filing for the K-1 visa for my Moroccan fiancee. We met within the past 2 years (last fall while I was studying abroad in Morocco). I just had a couple of questions/concerns regarding this.

I don't have any ticket stubs left from when I was there as evidence (I didn't see any reason for keeping them at the time), however, I plan on submitting a copy of the Certificate of Completion I received at the university, proving I took classes there, along with my transcripts from the university, my passport stamps from entering/leaving the country via Spain, and a letter from my study abroad director stating that I was present during the fall 2008 semester. I also have several photos of myself and my fiancee together (they aren't dated though). I also have emails, phone bills, letters, etc to prove we have an ongoing relationship. Should this be sufficient evidence of having met there during the fall of 2008 or might I have a problem?

Also, for the affidavit of support (I-134 form), I know that I'll need to provide supporting evidence. However, I only recently attained my full-time position as a Counselor upon graduating just last month. Therefore, my tax returns from the previous year or two would not represent my current income which is approximately $25,000.00 per year (pretty well over the 125% poverty guideline for New Jersey). I plan on submitting a letter from my employer stating my position, status, income, various benefits offered (medical, dental, etc) and date of starting (May 2009), along with numerous paystubs up and to the time of the interview, which I assume will be at least 6 months from todays' date (I haven't sent anything in yet - me and my fiancee both thought we should graduate first this past semester and have me find a good full-time job first). I would also submit evidence that I was in school (like a copy of my diploma, transcripts, letter from professor) which is why I do not have tax returns and only recently attained my first full-time position making sufficient income just last month. Would the fact that I only recently started my new career position hamper my chances of the visa being approved, or am I safe with that amount of evidence? Any advice?

Thanks very much. I appreciate it.

Chris

My question was more about - what IF they decide the reason was not good enough - can that negatively affect entire K1 process?

I-129 is a petition for a non-immigrant worker and an I-130 is a petition for an immediate relative... currently your bf is neither

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresCopies of paperwork
QUOTE (samillerm @ Jun 14 2009, 03:08 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
I will be taking a trip to see my fiance in about 3 weeks I thought this would be a good time to take him all of the copies of the paperwork that I sent in for the original I-129. I am wondering if there is anything else that I should take down to him while I am there. ie. papers to sign, etc. I think I read somewhere that I will need to fill out more G-325's...not sure if I will have to send those in or if he will. Sorry, I know I am getting ahead of myself, but I thought taking them directly to him would be the safest....especially since recently I sent a package to him in Mexico and it was shipped to Canada...oh the great USPS. lol

Any input would be greatly appreciated!!!

If the petition is filed then nothing he needs to sign for you until after entry into the USA...

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresWhy did Vermont SKIP NVC and send NOA2 to Consulate?

Humm, PAYX so this is the standard letter? Does everyone have the ability to interview at a different consulate? I thought Juarez was the ONE AND ONLY for people coming from Mexico. I wonder why they would give me an option for a different one? Anyone know?

Yes tglea I am doing a K-1.. it has been a long process, but we are closer today than we were yesterday :-)

Standard "boilerplate" letter does not know if your country has more than one consulate that performs the "K" visas. For example, in Canada it could be Vancouver or Montreal (but not Toronto, Calgary, etc..)... In Mexico it is Juarez or Juarez.

QUOTE (I Am Mello @ Apr 8 2009, 11:10 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
I got my NOA2 APPROVED! But this is puzzling to me. The letter starts as follows:

The above petition has been approved, and forwarded to the listed consulate.(Juarez I guess) Please contact the consulate with any questions about visa issuance, or if you would now like them to forward the petition to a different consulante. The petitioner can also file Form I-824, Application for Action on an Approved application of petition, with this office to request the we notify another consulate of the petition approval for visa processing purposes.

I did contact my congressman and told him I was concerned about all the violence in Juarez and was there any way to let her do the interview at her consulate in Guadalajara. (This was before I knew ALL interviews must go through Juarez) It seems as if Vermont sent the approved application to Juarez and skipped sending it to National Visa center. That's Odd... isn't it !

I am in Guadalajara this week for Holy week and can not read the contents of the letter for myself. I had someone open the letter and then email me the contents. I do know the letter was from Vermont and NOT the NVC. So it seems as if they went directly to Juarez with the approval. When I get back to the states I will contact the consulate.

I'm scratching my head here and hoping this doesn't add more time to the whole process. Does anyone have any ideas here? helpsmilie.gif

Well...My fiance is wanting to feed me cheese, I need to eat it... opps she said its not cheese it's a snack LOL


It is the standard letter, it still goes to NVC so they can send it to the consulate.... NVC is the gateway... the petition cannot get into the consulate system without passing through the gateway
