K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	New to the whole process... any advice?	Hi Lil_missy_in_love, my fiancee who is from Canada just got done with her interview Wednesday ( jan 21st) and received her K1 visa on Friday ( Jan.23), so now we have a date set. It is a long process but the wait is worth it . Things to remember that the K1 visa is good for only for one time, meaning that if you want to go back to England to visit family you may have a hard time coming back to the US, we just found that out and all the research I did never came across anything about it. So once she enter the US on the K1 visa she will set start the process for the Green Card. which can take up to 12-16 months. To answer your question you could visit on a tourist visa while you application is being process. When you travel back with him it would most likely be best that you both pass custom separately. Why? so that you won't get hassle about your visit into the country, they will make you feel that you are coming and try to get married and stay. It happen to us the first time she came across and she had a passport. So every time she came across she said that she was staying for only 10 days. Your boyfriend can not go inside with you during the interview, he wait outside for you. My fiancee interview was in Montreal while she went inside I wait across the street at a coffee house. Since my fiancee doesn't drive I will be driving up to Windsor Ontario to pick her up and drive back with her, that will be next weekend. I which you the very best of luck be patient as I said it is a long process, the US government like paperwork. I hope that is helpful for you I will follow your progress. Take care Melchior55 QUOTE (Lil_missy_in_love @ Jan 25 2009, 12:22 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> My boyfriend and have both decided we are going to apply for the K1 visa and are, at the moment, compiling documents etc in preparation for sending away the I-129F petition. We both stumbled across this website and have found it so, so helpful. At first you feel as if you're the only people in the world having to go through this, but its so good to hear from all the other people out there experiencing the same. Russ plans to visit me for the months of May & June this year. On his trip home, I will travel with him to visit for the 90 days, so whilst I'm there, we are both thinking of mailing off the I-129F package and finally starting the process then. Once I arrive home in September/October, does anyone know if we are able to continue visiting each other whilst our application is in process. I've heard of possible problems with me travelling over to the USA, but would he be able to travel here, instead? And eventually when we have reached the stage whereby I have my interview date at the US Embassy in London, does anyone also know if he is allowed to accompany me and then afterwards travel back to the US with me aswell. We'd both like to re-enter his country together before we get married as I also have a pet dog I'd like to travel with and it'd be much easier (and less stressful and nerve wracking) if we could do it together. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!! Good luck to you all. Its so inspiring to read all of your stories!	melchior55	Male	Canada	2009-01-25 13:05:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	Anyone gotten a visa approval	Kara, I think the best person to answer that question for you is an Immigration attorney. I am sure you can find one and usually the intial consult is free. In my opinion depending how much time as past by and seeing that he has not had any other charges since that one, I don't think it would be a problem. I still think that you should consult an Immigration Attorney and get his professional opinion. Good luck with you process. My fiancee and I got the K1 visa she will entering the US next week, then we start with the Adjustment Of Status process. Albert	melchior55	Male	Canada	2009-01-31 12:21:00
