K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresIs Permanent Residency necessary after K1
QUOTE (Mike T. @ Oct 18 2007, 09:37 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
Hello all,

Thanks for reading. For my fiance, entering as a tourist is not a problem. However the greencard process will heavily interfere with our plans after marriage. Can we forego that process until we are ready to settle permanently in the US? Can she, after our honeymoon, reenter the U.S., as a tourist with no problems? It seems logical but does the goverment work logically? Thanks a bunch. It is much appreciated!!! cool.gif


Mike


If she leaves the country after marriage before getting Advance Parole they will not let her back in the country and she will have to apply for a K3 or CR1 visa which will take another 8 to 12 months.

Ok, so from people's experience, after their case has been marked received and pending, what is the typical turnaround time from that point? When can I TYPICALLY (barring any issues with my petition) expect to receive an NOA2? I know that each case is different, so I'm asking for an "on average" answer. If anyone wants to share their personal experience that would be great. Thanks!


If I were you, I'd be thinking in terms of 150 to 180 days at this time.

QUOTE (Kayleigh+Kyle @ Oct 22 2007, 10:49 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
So I called today to find out about where my NOA2 is and why I haven't got it. The first guy told me I was wrong and I had not been awarded an NOA2 yet (umm hello? Then your whole website is wrong because it's telling me I am). Then finally he accepted that I was right and they'd have one out to me in a few days.

Then the next guy I talked to when I call back after the idiot I talked to the first time told me I had to file something for a new one and that I have to pay $340!? I'm sorry but I am not paying for theirs or the USPS's mistake.


Email them here CSC.NoNotice@DHS.Gov and tell them that you never received your NOA2. They should send you a replacement.

Hello, I've been lurking around for a while this post has given me and my fiance a lot of hope that are case won't take too long.

We were lucky enough to have filed with the VSC

Our I-129F arrived on Oct. 9 and I'm checking the status online constantly. It's been 16 days and so far nothing, I'm not complaingin because I'm ready to wait more but I'm just hoping to hear some hopeful comments here. Anyone with a similar filing date who has already received their NOA1, if I'm not mistaken that's what you receive when it is approved right? What happens then, is the interview scheduled?

Well I look forward to being a part of this forum, I wish all of you the best of luck, all of us here know how hard it is to be far away from the one we love.


If you fill in your timeline it will give you an estimate of your NOA2 date based on historic data.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresSeeking advice on K1 process
QUOTE (akaliquidsnake @ Oct 26 2007, 07:40 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
Hi i'm new here and i'm currently living in England whilst my fiance lives in Oregon in the USA.

I just need some general pointers as to what to do as both my fiance and myself are getting frustrated and we both obviously Love each other dearly. She means the world to me.

My questions are this.

1. If She files for the K1 I-129f will I still be able to visit her at christmas while it's being dealt with ? OR ! is it better to file after I visit ? I have visited my fiance while the K1 Petition was being processed. Make sure you have ties to home with you when you travel in case you get asked for them.

2. I have read so much on here already and as helpful as it is, it's also "VERY" overwhelming. How long will it take to process as im in the uk ? It's taken around 8 months for me but it with the current slow down I would estimate 9-10 months

3. If it gets accepted and then to stage 2, do I then recieve everything in the post so as to fill it out at my end and post it to the embassy ? After approval the petition is sent to NVC who give it a LND case number and forward it to the embassy. The embassy will then send you Packet 3 with full instructions. It is worth ordering a Police Certificate from the police station around your estimated NOA2 approval date as it takes 40 days to arrive from the receipt of your application but is valid for 1 year from issue.

4. I read about the medical, do I have that prior to my interview ? and where would it be ? I just wondered if there are accepted hospitals in other countries that they must use as people cant just fly to the states and then back for an interview ? The medical will take place at Knightsbridge Doctors near Bond Street in London

5. How strict is the medical ? Check the UK forums for reviews of the medical

6. Everything seems so much right now. Plus my fiance is not working currently so could we possibly get 2 co sponsors and if she got a job how much does she need to be earning for us to be accepted ? An immigration lawyer told us in Oregon it was roughly $17,500 ?

7. I have read and understood all the forms for the petition, but whilst it's being processed until it's approved and I recieve my package, can we still see each other ? You must convince the border guard at immigration that you do not intend to marry and adjust status. There is a thread about this which would be worth you searching for and reading. When I visited I told them I was staying with a friend.


8. it seems a minefield of information. what sort of information do they require from me ? I currently have a personal loan , though im working. are my finances taken into account ? I have been with my employer for 20yrs and i've never broken the law. Do they check my bank statements as well and see what i earn ? They are not interested in your income. If you have a lot of savings then this could be used to prove that you will not be a burden on the US Government when you come over on the visa.

9. How long can we expect to wait if we file now for me to be accepted for a k1 visa as im in the uk ? Probably around 9-10 months but there are no guarantees

Apologies if i've repeated anything but we seriously need some advice from those who have been through this.

Our only other option was to get married regardless , like alot of genuine people all we want to do is get on with our lives and live together. Sadly we have realised this is NOT so simple.

Once started on this route im sure it's very simple if they know it's genuine.

I did think about hiring an immigration lawyer to assist us with it all ? Would that be wise ? or should we save the money and just follow the paperwork ?

Any tips on what to do would be hugely recieved

TY

QUOTE (Gwen666 @ Sep 17 2007, 02:01 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
My husband visited me three times while the K-1 was in process, each time for the maximum of 90 days. We entered via Newark each time. On the first two trips, he was not stopped or questioned beyond the norm.

On the entry for the third visit, he was stopped, questioned, and cautioned not to try entering again without the visa. Fortunately, we got the visa after that, so we didn't need to worry. During that questioning he was asked to provide ties to the UK (bank account, letter from work, and all of our visa paraphernalia such as the NOAs we'd received, the medical information, and the interview letter from the Embassy). We have also been stopped since then (we didn't pursue Adjustment of Status and currently live abroad) when entering the US; nothing major, just the same where we are asked to show ties to the UK.


Wow, that is amazing that your husband managed to get in for a total of 270days ohmy.gif
Wish I could have the same kind of luck hehe, but I don't have the same kind of ties that you have (letter from work etc).

As a matter of interest, what kind of questions was he asked at the POE? If you know smile.gif

I last left America after a 87 days visit on July 21st 2007, and am wanting to visit for 31days in a week or so.

Any further help would be truely appreciated.

P.S. Anyone that has visited 2x for around 87 days or so and has visited again for a lesser time, PLEASE private message me what happened to you at POE and if you got through or not. Many thanks!

Hey all.

I have been in the USA got 6 months on the Visa Waiver Program, 3 months at a time (to be exact, 87 days at a time) (visited 2x)

I am from the UK, am 17 going on 18 this November, have never been deported, don't have any form of criminal record, and my petition is pending at the CSC.

I am currently unemployed and I am WANTING to go visit my fiancee within 2 weeks.

I am intending to stay for 1 month on the Visa Waiver Program.

My question is:

What are my chances of getting through the POE considering I have been in the US for a long time this year (long visits)
What forms of strong home ties can I bring? (I am living with my mum and stepdad, am not in school and have no job)

Thanks!

You ARE abusing the VWP. Have you figured that out yet?

There have been others on here that have said they visited the same amount of time as Jakey, some even longer.. They were abusing it and still got in. So those of you who are married already, it may be a bit easier for you to just point blank say "you are abusing it and thats that" dont you remember when you couldnt see your loved one? I beleive he is in the same shoes as you married folk were at one time. So instead of just saying "you are abusing it." try to help maybe?! Give some advice maybe?!
Done for now smile.gif


Thank you Tinkerbell.

If I am abusing it, then I am abusing it, but you stating that isn't going to help me with visiting or staying, and john_and_marlene, I really do not know what you are trying to accomplish posting 3 times on this thread saying the same thing, you act as if I have a short term memory loss or something... Don't you have anything better to do? :S

While the terms and conditions of the VWP are business or pleasure for 90 days or less, they'll also look at your previous visits for the year and how long you've stayed for. If they believe that you're using the VWP to spend more than the allowed maximum time you're given in the US, they might ask you to shorten your visit or even deny you entry. The officer at the POE may believe that you have intent to stay despite the ties you may have to your home country.

I don't think it's so much an issue of how many times you've come into the US, but so much an issue of accrued time that you've spent in the US already.

A doctor's appointment may not be enough to prove ties to the home country - could you get a letter from your parents stating that you live at their residence and you intend to return within a specific time?


Yes I can get a letter from my parents VERY easily. They support me 100% on this, so that wouldn't be a problem.

Excuse me?
My visits to the US is not going to influence the chances of other people getting into the USA or not.

And I am abusing the VWP how? Because I visited 2x in my whole life this year?!

The terms and conditions of the VWP are that you can travel visa free for BUSINESS or VACATION. It is a vacation, to be with my fiancee.

If it was against the rules, then the Immigration officer wouldn't of let me in for my 2nd visit for 3 months.

I think you seriously need to reconsider your attitude towards others.

Passport stamps, boarding tickets, pictures, phone bills, anything which would show that you two have had a relationship before and after you filed the I-129F and also if your fiancee didn't do a NEW letter of intent, then he should do a new one and send it to you, stating that he still intends to marry you and stuff.

Hmm, I was told yesterday that 'if it gets to 90 days and you still haven't heard anything' (about my I-90 to get my green card corrected - which is also currently showing a processing time of 6 months on the USCIS site) that I should call back and they will 'expedite' my case. Yeah right, of course they will. I know USCIS well enough by now to know that the woman I spoke to was obviously talking (in a very friendly way, mind you) out of her #######, and that that is just one of their standard 'please get off the phone now and don't bother us again for a few months' lines. Still, I wonder if I spoke to the same customer 'service' rep that you got - it's probably something she reads from her script to every caller! I can practically guarantee that if you call them 5 times in a row and ask the exact same thing, you are going to get a different answer every time.


An I-90 is a bit different than a I129F petition. And yes they should be willing to look into it for you at that point.


I know it is (well, obviously...)... but as the other USCIS people I've talked to have told me it will take 'a year', 'anything from 180 days to six months' (hmm, aren't those one and the same?!) and various other things... (and given that the CSC processing times are now saying '6 months' - slightly better than 'July 2006' which is what it said the other week)... ah, I was just wondering if we'd landed the same customer service lady, more than anything else! (Not that it's remotely relevant, but the only reason I called them at all was to find out if there's any way of establishing that the thing actually arrived safely and isn't lost!)

(edited... I remember WHY I posted in the first place now - it was just because the OP couldn't remember the word the customer service rep had used, and I was just wondering if it was 'expedite', 'cos that's what my 'call back when it's been 90 days' woman said. That was it! And of course I know I-90 processing and I-129F processing have nothing to do with each other... but that doesn't mean the USCIS customer service people don't sometimes spout the same lines no matter what you're calling about!)

Anyway... sorry, back to topic! good.gif

QUOTE (Engineer @ Sep 25 2007, 06:27 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
Hello:

Our K1 Visa was denied at interview. The reason given is: "Beneiciary signed an affidavit noting that she married Petitioner SPECIFICALLY to incur immigration benefits and raise a family in the US". They also state she speaks little or no English as a specific problem.

What is our best option now?


I am not to be rude and it is none of my business but, I would of thought that signing an affidavit saying that you are specifically wanting the K1 for Immigration benefits is just going to make the interviewer think "This is visa fraud, it isn't a bonafied relationship, the beneficiary just wants to use the country for these things which their country doesn't offer"

Although there is nothing that can be done about that part now (the affidavit part) I can only suggest as others have, getting an Immigration lawyer, not sure if you can get it appealed, but best of luck to you.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresWhen to file through Vermont?

I would file right away. If you happen to get an interview scheduled before the trip, postpone the interview, or, delay sending back the Packet 3 information for a bit. I wish the Montréal consulate and the California Service Center were as speedy as the London Embassy and Vermont Service Center.


How long could I delay sending back the packet 3 information for? I've had a look through the guides but I can't find anything telling me how long I can hold it up for - perhaps I'm not looking in the right place. :unsure: I'm now beginning to think that it may be a good idea to file sooner rather than later so that if we get an RFE, or anything else causes a delay, at least that will happen when we're not really too bothered about the speed that things are going.

Thanks to everyone for their advice so far.

Thanks everyone. After looking at the timelines link and reading your advice we're going to file in mid-July. That way I can visit in September because there's no chance I'll have the visa before then. If we file mid-July I'm hoping to have the interview somewhere around the end of October or beginning of November.

Also you can visit after you file and before the visa is issued, so dont feel too limited by that. By the way, I love your screen name :)


Thank you, it's one of the many nicknames my fiance has for me. :blush:

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresWhen to file through Vermont?
Hello all. I am a UK citizen and recently got engaged to a USC. Ideally I would like to move out there around January 2008 and don't envisage any problems with the visa (no criminal record etc). I have a holiday booked with my fiance in the US for 10 days in September so I don't want the visa before then. We will be filing through Vermont and wondered if anyone could advise on when would be a good time to file the I-129F in order to get an interview any time between the middle of October 2007 and January 2008? I appreciate that this is not an exact science and I know that it's impossible to be precise but a rough idea would be ideal.

Thanks in advance.

I think we all can learn something here. The only notational requirement for a picture is writing the applicant's or beneficiary's name on the back... No dating of the required.....

How are the photos dated? Is there some sort of notation on them?

"10/8/06"

and my signature.
