K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresFiance to receive gov't assistance and affadavit questions
You questions are addressed in the Affidavit of Support Tips guide.

Being on government assistance may be an issue if it's viewed as a permanent arrangement. Your employment history and/or assets will have no bearing on the evidence of support requirement.

If your fiance is getting help and will actively be working towards future employment, then you may want to still go ahead with filing the petition. Approval can take several months, then once NOA2 is sent, you have up to 4 months to schedule your consulate interview. This can be extended if needed. So essentially you will have 6+ months from the file date until the I-134 even becomes an issue.

Good luck.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresLetter for border official for visit pre NOA2
QUOTE (SunTiger @ Apr 1 2009, 04:50 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
You might also mention if the officer who approved her visitor visa knew full well about the K-1 in progress, so the POE officer would understand he/she would only be going along with the previous officer's judgment. Does that make sense to anyone?


Not in this case - Finland is a VWP country. Besides, CBP officers can deny entry even with a visa already in-hand.

I doubt the letter would be of much help. If the CBP officer is suspicious that your fiancee is lying or obfuscating the truth, then I would imagine that they would also be suspicious of the author of the letter.

Take the advise given here of ensuring your finacee has strong proof of ties. Another tip is to have her pack lightly. I saw an Eastern European woman in secondary claiming to be visiting her "friend" for a couple of weeks, but she had 5 bags with her.

The way I think of it is if it's not part of the official instructions, then use your best judgement. If it's something that is not in the instructions but could potentially delay the processing of your petition, then ask here.

The I-129f instruction says U.S. Passport is acceptable.


It is acceptable to provide a copy of a U.S. passport for proof of U.S. Citizenship, however this is not the issue the OP was querying about.

Bobby_Umit already answered the question, but I will reiterate for clarity: Question 10 is asking how you acquired U.S. Citizenship, so since you were naturalized, you must provide your Naturalization certificate#. A passport is not applicable here.

Truly the best way to overcome this c**p is to let my boyfriend pay the amount for his back support so he could get a passport to visit me here.


C**p?

How is it this? if your boyfriend took care of his responsibilities, you wouldn't have this issue.


But yes, once he takes care of his back payments, (below $2,500), then he can get the passport and visit you.



I believe he started to have this problem regarding child support since the economy went down there in the US.


Unfortunately, economic hardship affects all of us in one way or the other. But, if your boyfriend had/has financial trouble to the extent that he has fallen behind on his child support payments...he needs to concentrate on paying that off before having any new expenses (like a trip across the world to meet you).
And, I'm sorry...it is not C**P to be financially current with your financial obligations towards your child.
-P


Yep, which is also why USCIS does not accept excuses of financial difficulty for not adhering to the meeting in person requirement, so OP, that route is not available to you either in terms of a waiver.

My advise is to stop looking for ways to get around the meeting requirement, as it will result in a denial of your petition and a loss of $455. If your boyfriend/fiance/whatever is already having financial difficulty, then wasting $455 is obviously not a very good option for him and his child(ren).

Based on what I have been reading here your fiance had better bring more strong ties to Canada than just a return ticket for his next trip. I have been assembling a fair bit of evidence for my May trip as I will be stating I am coming down to see my fiancee then.

Good luck, keep us posted of your progress.

T&D


Can someone please explain to me how this is a problem? I flew to Canada just last month. He has flown to see me 5 other times. All that happens at the airport is they check your passport. Is there some database that they scan your passport against that notifies them of our I-129f? I just received my NOA1 last Friday, and he is coming in less than two weeks for Spring break.

I don't see why he should bring any extra papers or request a letter from him employer. As far as I know our file is sitting in Vermont for the next 130 days or whatever until they approve it and send it on.

He is taking classes in college that aren't over yet, so that's a reason to return. He also works as an accountant and Canadian taxes are due by the end of April so he has a lot of work to return to. I don't want him to have to request a letter from his employer, because then they will know that we are engaged and then they might surmise that he is leaving. He is close to getting a raise and he doesn't want to lose it because who knows how much longer he will be in Canada until this is all approved?


For a Canadian, traveling to the U.S. is usually hassle-free but not always. The point is that you need to provide proof of ties if requested by the CBP Officer. Simply saying, "Yes, I have a job that I intend to return to and I am a student" is usually enough, but not always, and does not really prove anything.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresTraveling to see each other (US and Canada) after...
Although your employer cannot legally fire you for a possible future resignation, if you'd rather not get into specifics with them, you don't need to. I would just tell them that I am going to the U.S. on vacation and that I would feel better about crossing the border if I had a letter from them confirming that I am a current employee and am expected back to work, since there are many cases of Canadians being denied for being unable to prove ties. You're not lying, but you're not giving out personal details either.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresNo rent receips for "proof of ties"
I had a similar experience. I had just graduated from University, had no job, and lived with my parents. I went to visit my fiance (boyfriend at the time) for 3 months and was stopped at the YVR customs preclearance and sent to secondary. I was stupid and had no return ticket. I had travelled to other countries and to the States numerous times in the past and was under the impression that I only had to prove that I could financially support myself while I was there. Anyway, after being interogated and told that I would have to go buy a return ticket, I was allowed to enter. I didn't receive a waiver though, so I'm not sure if that will make a difference to you or not.

I was worried that I would be flagged, but I have never had another problem getting through customs - some 4 times after this incident. Just be sure to bring a letter from your employer that states that you currently work there and they expect you to return. Also, if you have any bank statements from the month you returned, you could bring those just in case you need to try and prove that you didn't overstay. If you're asked about it, just be honest about being naive. I think as Canadians we don't really expect that we'll be denied at the border. I certainly didn't consider it. wink.gif

If you have specific questions about the process that are not answered within the guides, then I would suggest searching the forums. If you still cannot find an answer, then post a new topic. If you have questions of which you would like a Canadian perspective, then by all means join us in the Canada Regional forum.

You can visit the USA as many times as you are allowed entry; there is no set number of times that one can be admitted, it is up to the CBP officer who interviews you at the POE.

Advice needed:

I'm Canadian, and my fiancée is American. The thing is-we met in person by driving-NOT flying. My passport has nothing on it, as Canadians never get stamped going into the US-esp. via car. So, we have pictures of us together, emails send to eachother pre-sending in the I29-F and that's about it.

Is there anything else I can and should provide as evidence considering the above? Any thoughts and/or solutions would be most appreciated.

Thanks!


This is not really an appropriate thread in which to post this question, as it is really for posts about receiving RFE's and how to avoid them. But, the answer to your question is found within the Guides: K1 Visa Guide

Also, as this is a Canada-specific issue (I assume that Mexicans entering the U.S. have their passport stamped, but I could be wrong here), perhaps asking for advise in the Canada Regional forum would be helpful if you don't find the info you need within the guides.

Hello all,

A few weeks ago, my fiancee had her interview in Montreal and was denied because at her medical interview, she admitted to using marijuana before. She is not allowed to immigrate now for three years and is required to go to rehab and receive monthly drug tests over those three years to show she is rehabilitated. As much as it doesn't matter now, I want to be perfectly clear upfront...She has never purchased it in her life and her use of it was infrequent at best. How there is no appeal process or gray area here is astounding. Even the immigration officer who denied her said so and admitted that the law, in this case, was "archaic". But I understand that the law is the law, no matter how much I disagree with it, and sometimes being honest about how we have lived our lives bites us back.


I think your fiance should have lied, You have to REALIZE that these people are not like mom or dad or sisters or best friend that are understanding to you and would appreciate your honesty, they are jerks (not all them but most are). That's what you get for being upfront with jerks, straigh up. I'm not saying you should lie where there is risk of you getting catch but for someting like that, smoking pot once in a blue moon, she shouldn't have said anything and there would have been no way for them to find out.


Not helpful advise and does not develop this discussion in any way. Your personal opinion of consulate/immigration officials does not justify lying during any point in the process, nor does the presumed chance of being caught.

You're right, but SandJ's assessment was correct in that, because the CO's cannot readjudicate, they can often use more than necessary 'scrutiny' during the interview. That is why it is crucial, in a situation like this, to find out what exactly was the ineligibility....it will help guide the next steps of the petitioner.

This is a Canada-wide search, so you only need one certificate.

If you have had a conviction or just lived in Canada temporarily, then you will need a fingerprint-based search.

Also, funny story: We were driving one day and he pronounced W as "dub-ya". I asked him what two "yas" look like and he looked at me like I was crazy. I then had to explain that W is pronounced "double-you" because it looks like two "U's". He was shocked that he didn't know that and said that he always thought the letter was "dub-ya" because that's how all of his teachers pronounced it. However, he later looked it up on dictionary.com and they now have an alternate pronounciation... I blame Bush for this.
