K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedurespetitioner's telephone number
Your name should appear on your phone bill. From an evidentiary standpoint, that should be enough.
On each of the phone bills I submitted, I sent only excerpts (marked as such), but I included the first page (the one with my name and address) and highlighted my name. FYI- I heavily redacted my phone bills (account number, non-relevant phone numbers, etc.).

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresRFE--pls help
Before you send, do one last check to make sure you don't have any documents that are not in English (those would be the Foreign Documents they are talking about). It sounds like you don't, but don't just send off Monday without double checking.

If every single document is in English, ok. If not, check and make sure every document that is not in English is attached to an English translation thereof, marked as ENGLISH TRANSLATION OF ____________________[name of the document] (or something like that).

I understand that this is a repeat of suggestions above, but I don't want you to gloss over something potentially valid.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresName Change BEFORE Fiance Arrives
It is not actually that fast a process to change your name in California. Check this out: http://www.courtinfo...hangeadult2.htm

However, it should not necessarily delay your visa process. I will note, however, that the choice of name (given the current, unfortunate political climate with respect to people of certain origins) may. You also have to consider the country of origin of the beneficiary of your petition. If you are really concerned about the timing issue, I would consider checking out the regional forum to ask how long the name/background checks took. And note, that they will now be looking for you--original name and you--new name. That you have to take this into consideration is unfair and I don't endorse it, but if you care about timing, you should think about it.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresQuestions on the G-325A
I am assuming you are filing you I-129F. Therefore, you should not put K-1 Visa. The G-325A is being filed in connection with I-129F. If you are post- petition phase and you have the K-1 already, you will put the form number for AOS, which is I-485 (assuming that is the step you are on).

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresProves we have met
PLEASE translate anything that is not in English that is provided with the I-129F petition. The directions and USCIS policy state CLEARLY that all foreign documents must be translated. Anyone who says otherwise is just wrong. (Read the form and you will be able to confirm.)

Now, you are not required to provide things like insurance cards etc. However, if you do, TRANSLATE them. You should explore this site more for people's opinions on how much (i.e. 3 lbs) or how little (i.e. bare min.) evidence should be provided with the I-129F petition.

Note: I imagine that, at the stage of applying for the K-1 visa (i.e. after the I-129F petition is approved), the relevant consulate in France will accept documents either in French or English. You should check their website to confirm. At the I-129F stage, however, you have no way of knowing whether the particular officer reviewing your SO's I-129F will speak/read French. Moreoever, you may annoy him/her if you fail to follow the clear instructions stating that all non-English documentation should be translated.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresThe marriage in the US is it valid in my country?
FYI--

Marriage is not marriage. And every country does not automatically recognize the marriage of its citizens abroad, just because that marriage comports with local law. You may not be allowed to legally marry another person if you are married in another country (assuming bigamy is illegal in your country... in Italy, it is), but you will not enjoy the benefits of marriage in Italy. For example, eventual immigration benefits for your spouse.

Otherwise, most of the comments above are pretty accurate. You do have to register at the consulate, but many times you need to do it BEFORE you get married to make sure you comply with the laws of a valid marriage in the home country. In some countries it is difficult, if not impossible, to do this after the wedding. You may have to be married all over, which is not necessarily cheap. (Don't know about Italy on this point)

Here is a link to the relevant info for an Italian on the Italian embassy to the USA website (scusami per non cercare la versione italiana): http://www.ambwashin...i/Stato_civile/

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresShould I marry my girl before trying to come to USA?
QUOTE (europm @ Jun 16 2009, 02:46 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
I wish to marry my fiancee from Ukraine. I am a U.S. citizen living in Europe and can not return to Ukraine for 6 months. She is a widow with a young son, owns her own flat and a business (on paper). Ukraine does not let single woman leave easily. These are my possible options: Marry her in Ukraine by proxy (not present) and then get her a visa to USA (not likely). Get her a visa to go to her brother in Spain and marry her there. This seems to be the best option, but how do I get her to USA afterward? Does getting married first make it easier to get into the USA? What would be necessary to accomplish this? She is not in a safe situation in Ukraine and needs to get out. Please help.


The best way is K1 visa, you ask for permission, you wait and go through all the stuff like the rest of us. or
You get married now, and get K3 visa and wait and go through all the stuff and then bring her here or
She comes to the US with a tourist visa and you get married here and then you do the paperwork and tell them she's not leaving, but you might need a lawyer, I don't know how that works, but I heard that they don't like it when you do it that way, you might have more interviews if you do it that way, but if she is in danger, then what can you do.

Either way, it's very expensive, the prices have really gotten high

My name is Alice and i was looking for information about US fiance
visa then came across this site. I'm so happy that you are all real people with real experience and you
know alot about this. please help me.

I got traditionally enagaged with my fiance last summer back home. he returned back to france and I came back here in the US. he's been my first and only boyfriend, since I was 14 years old and I now 23 years old. I have beein in the USA and never went out with someone else. really miss him and I'm now ready to live with him and start an extra exceptional life together. he's also very exited about it.

i want to bring my fiance inthe USA, I've already filed the I129F form in may 14 as I just became a US citizen on may 7. so far, we have received our receipt letter from VSC.We are now waiting to receive something else from immigration. but in the mean time, what do we need to have?? what information should we be collecting for now? we've already sent along with the application, a proof of meeting each other, our intention letters, our G32s, if he ever gets an interview, what does he need to have on him? is he going to get that first or some thing else?

My biggest concern is that I don't think I make a lot a lot of money, but I have two people who can sponsor us. ( one of my teachers and a lady at me Church) does that work in this case?? do they allow you to have a sponsor? how much do they want you to have or be making, in order to bring some one over? I'm a student and I only make about 13000.00$$ a year. I have read from other sites that the process is very complex, so I'm now terrifed. I wonder if I should have gotten a lawyer.
please write, I'm begging you.

Thank you


Congratulations on becoming a citizen. And contrary to your impression, we here at VJ are not all real people. smile.gif

Sounds like you are coming along fine. The next step will be your fiance's interview and visa application, some months down the road. He needs to begin gathering all the documents he needs for that, check the embassy website. For a never married male, it is not so difficult. He will need his birth certificate, and police certificate from France to show he has no criminal record (background check). He can get that anytime, the consulate accepts police certificates within one year (no matter what the certificate itself says)

He will also submit a few forms which you can download from the consulate website.

You will need to make, minimum $18,212 to qulaify to sponsor him. If you do not make that much you can use a co-sponsor. A co-sponsor fills out the same support form you do. They need to be a US citizen or Permanent Resident.

Bonne Chance!



Gary, What are the types of form he's going to need? so we can get them and stard filling them up now.
Thanks

(MY ANSWER IS NO.)

3.If you have provided information about a conviction for a crime listed above and you were being battered or subjected to extreme hardship cruelty by your spouse,parent,or adult child at the time of your conviction,check all of the following that apply to you:




QUESTIONS:
1.) WHAT IS A FOREIGN DOCUMENT THEY ARE REQUESTING? ONLY IF APPICALBE (ie, response to Quest. 2)
2.)DO I SUBMIT IT WITH THIS FORM BACK TO THEM? YES WITH A COPY OF TRANSLATION.....only if you a foregin doc. that relates to quest. 2
3.)MY ANSWER TO #2 IS NO. OKAY I MARKED IT FOR YOU
4.)WOULD THAT MEAN I DONT ANSWER TO #3 SINCE MY ANSWER TO # 2 IS NO? YES..... COMMON SENSE, TRY TO USE YOUR NOODLE
5.SO I JUST SIGNED THIS AND SEND IT BACK TO THEM?? READ MY SMART A.S.S REPLY

Cutie, im going to try and answer your question in a relaxed state of mind. I feel that your in panic mode right now, so you cant think clearly. I have modify your OP, so you can an idea of what i mean. The foregin doc statement is probably a template that is use for all RFEs. You took it the wrong way, they only wrote it there as a reminder for the petitioner.... trying to be helpful and not generate further RFEs. Your RFE is simple, answer no to quest. 2 and sign. If you noticed at the end of Question 2 there is an instruction for you to follow. I have underlined and bold that part. If you had submitted anything to your answer to Q. 2 that was in a foregin lang. then get it translated and submit.
Next time try not to panic and look at the situation with a more logical approach. From the pattern i have observed. Since You have filed in feb, and now that the IO has picked your file off his floor and now working on it. It a very good sign that after they receive your reply your NOA 2 will arrive in about 2 weeks. Only my predicition, wink.gif Good Luck

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresMy Embassy Interview was cancelled a few times by my fiance
QUOTE (JeremyR @ Jan 8 2009, 10:52 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
I'm wondering why the USC is able to cancel a K1 interview at all? Surely the beneficiary would be responsible for that? Certainly when I did mine (admittedly not in Manilla) all the appointment stuff was down to me and my USC better half had nothing to do with it.

In any case, I'd go if I were you. Even if you can convince the consular officer that you had valid reasons for cancelling, every time you do, you make it more and more likely that they will take issue with it. Furthermore, you do not need all your documentation in place to attend the interview. London almost dropped me right in it by scheduling my K1 interview before I had returned the packets and got all the documents. I accepted the interview anyway and went with what I had. In the end, all I was short of was the Affidavit of Support but that's quite a critical piece of documentation. The consular officer simply continued with the interview and gave me instructions for sending the AoS to the embassy as soon as I had it. I submitted it plus my passport a week later and my visa was then issued.

If you can, show evidence that you've at least applied for the missing documentation. The embassy won't issue a visa on grounds of a receipt, etc, but it should be taken as a show of good faith at least.

Bluntly: Stop messing with the embassy. Sooner or later, they are going to get fed up with it and you'll have a really hard time getting a visa from them.


The USC is not actually "cancelling" the USEM interview, but just keeps rescheduling. You are allowed to schedule your USEM interview up to one year from the date of your petition being approved. The beneficiary might better just go to her interview and let them tell her what additional documents are needed to be approved for visa, if deadline is getting close. The phone call costs $9USD each time, and I would be very annoyed paying THAT each time.

Hey does someone what to comment i heard from a Customer Service Worker at the USCIS.

She said "The USCIS has a system that works! Trust them it works and they have many Happy Customers".

I cant believe they say that because it is large government corporation of 17,000 people that have wasted money without updating there processes to make the process of immigration FASTER. Everyone knows that your User Fees it used to fund the USCIS. Your User Fees that have increased dramatically the past years will be used to update the system that other people with benefit from in the future.

I personally cant fathom a HAPPY CUSTOMER of the USCIS. Maybe a relieve customer that is glad the IMMIGRATION POLICE is finally stop dragging there feet and allowed them to bring there fiance to the US. GIVE ME A BREAK USCIS. I think an appropriate think for the USCIS to do is remove the S from the title of this department since SERVICE is not what they do!

Please comment.



So what EXACTLY are you angry about with the USCIS?

Try the Russian Gov't. for immigration matters, and you will be so glad you are going thru the American system.

USCIS is a monster-sized bureaucracy, and things don't turn on a dime. Just go try and be a manager there, and see if you can make it a better system. There are lots of happy, united couples thanks to the work of the USCIS.''

The lawyer knows which end of the clientz check book is up. Of course, the immigration lawyer told you he could get you a visa in weeks.

DITCH THE LAWYER, AND USE THAT MONEY FOR YOUR WEDDING AND HONEYMOON. DIY WITH VISAJOURNEY.

i forgot to put our names on the back of the passport photos... but we are doing the visa through a lawyer and everything is sent in about two weeks ago... is it ok? would the lawers catch that??
thank you so much



Do the USCIS instructions actually inform us to write names on the back of the passport style fotos? Never do more than you are asked to do with these govt entities: They will use your enthusiasm against you. blink.gif

hey i am sorry to hear that but remember u can not file again for 2 years bcz the immigration only allows one visa in 2 years period.


Sorry, but this is not true. If you file again before the two year period, you only need to submit a letter requesting a waiver; read in the IMBRA forum on VJ for more info.

DJ;
As Brad said, Russian and former Soviet Union women expect a man to show strength. This is not to imply you beat women or drink heavily; it implies you can make a solid decision, plan a future for your family, support yourself and your family, protect your wife, etc. She has spent little real time with you and can only really judge you via skype, email, etc. Be strong, be confident, PM me if you wish. You have a strong family here in VJ, especially in the Russian Forum.

I urge you not to withdraw now; give it some time and really learn her feelings and your feelings.


Both you and Brad are spot on. FSU women definitely want a MAN, a "rock" who makes decisions and relieves them of things they would rather not deal with. A good man is strong in character and spirit. but quiet and gentle to his wife. Plus, you have to be a really good lover! laughing.gif



So you have these same requirements and pressures on your husband and agree with them?
