Hi,

Thanks.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsDecember filers that got transfered from NVC to TSC, Still no NOA2?
We are dec 17th,transferred from Vermont to Texas in May along with lots of others.Very frustrating to see later applicants getting processed from Vermont after we were transferred but to be honest,we are used to it now.Just need to hang in there a few more weeks and we will hopefully hear good news.Good luck all.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsAPPROVED!
We didn't get a text but I got 2 emails. First one at 10am on Wednesday that it was being processed mad then the second email was at 10:45pm on the same day telling us it's approved. When we were transferred to Texas we did get the text and email notification but for some reason we only received it by email. We always check the website before we check the emails.

Our visa is approved. We are so excited to start our next chapter in our lives together. This will be our first Christmas together in our 7 year relationship and it's going to be wonderful. We want to wish everyone the best of luck and hang in there. There have been times when we thought we would never get to this point but as they say good things come to those that wait and it can be true.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsDecember Filers
December filer here but transferred from VSC to Texas so the waiting game starts again after seeing some January filers getting their second notice. A little upsetting but no sense in getting out of control about it. Lol. I have my fiancé here for another 2 weeks so going to enjoy my time with the best guy in the world til he has to go back home to Scotland. It would be nice to get some good news while we're together. :)

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresSubject Access Form Vs. Police Certificate
I recently obtained my Subject Access Request as I hope to obtain my k1 visa soon.I am Scottish and I believe that this is the form we use.I think it's ACPO in England and Wales.I may have it wrong though?

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresWrong Embassy on the I-129F?!
Charlene17,I too put my embassy as Belfast as I live in Grangemouth,Scotland.Its so much easier and cheaper to get to Belfast than travel to London.I only noticed after I sent away my I-129f that Belfast don't process I-129f's,however I was approved this week and as far as I am aware my stuff will all be sent to London ....I hope so anyways!Silly little mistakes are so easy to make but can cost you months and month of extra waiting.We originally filled in Jan 2012 but only filled out the form and sent the cheque.We heard NOTHING for 10 months,but low and behold they cashed our cheque within a week.Now you are not trying to tell me that whoever opened up our envelope didn't know there and then that we had not put all the supporting evidence in there?All it would have taken was a phone call to save us 10 months of waiting on nothing to happen.Hands up though,it was our fault.
Anyways,hope to be all finished and moved to Florida this year,maybe even as early as October.Still freakin out though about making any more mistakes.Im so glad to have found so many good people on here to help and advise everyone,thanks again to you all.

My I-129f was approved last week and I have not recieved packet 3 yet.Can I book my medical now?If so,how do I actually do it?Do I call them up or do they automatically give you a date for your medical after I send the 4 forms away?

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresQuestions regarding the DS 157, DS 156 and DS 230 forms

We have received our approval for our I-129F. We now are in the process of starting the K-1 Visa application and to get ahead of the game we are  filling out the above forms, However we are  slightly confused.

On form DS 157 question #5 it says Spouses full name (if married)

On the DS 156 question #18 same scenario except it says Spouses full name (even if divorced or separated including maiden name).

On the DS 230 it also asks for spouse's information.

For all these forms even though we aren't married at this time  because we are filing for a K-1 Fiance Visa are they considering me (the fiance) as the spouse in all these forms or his previous spouse?

Since we're not married it just seems strange that I would be putting my name in when by law I am not his spouse.

Thanks,

Tina & Stuart

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresTravelling from Scotland to London Embassy (Medical)
Hi.I just wanted to ask if any Scottish VJ's have travelled recently to the embassy and what route/transport they used.It looks like its reasonably cheap to fly (around £200 return flying from Glasgow to London City).Then use the Docklands Light Railway to get to Bank(Central Line),then a short ride to Bond Street.I am still waiting to book my medical but want to be as prepared as possible.I was hoping to fly down and back in one day depending on the time of my medical,but it looks like I may need to fly down the day before and stay in a hotel which will probably cost an arm and a leg.
So,Has anyone managed to do this trip in one day?
Can anyone recommend a cheap hotel which is not too far from the Embassy?
Thanks in advance.Stuart

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Proceduresconfused by all the information
Feel sorry for August filers.We filed in December and were transferred to Texas in May,then we too we're "overtaken" by Jan/Feb filers.we didn't wait long after that though,I-129f approved 2 weeks ago,but we know how you feel.
As for a ballpark figure re process time,10-12 months seem to be a reasonable guess,all going well.
Good luck everyone.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures156k question 4
Hi.I know this question has been asked before about what to put re the question of your spouses name.It would be n/a.But on the 156 k it clearly states...Marital status,even if you were previously married.Im guessing that this is the one occasion that I DO put my ex wife's name in?Forgive my stupidness,just about to send all my forms away and don't wanna mess up after waiting 2 years.
