K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresNO2 RECEIVED NOW WHAT NEEDS TO BE INCLUDED??
Aussiewench, sorry If i ask STUPID q's on this one, im on pain meds and very tired, but confusion set in.
As in originals that we sent to the service center, as in birth certs, we have to send our fiance overseas our ORIGINAL birth certs? if thats the case im not sure i trust the postal service that much with something that important. Thats kind of nerveracking. Again im on pain meds, so tomorrow I will prolly figure it all out and feel real dumb :lol:

yea, i kinda had a brain fart on this one and then realised i did not send in the intent letter on my fiances part. i still had it in my folder for all of our stuff. So i imagine thats what it is. Everything else was answered with answers or with none/NA. So I have the letter of intent ready, just waiting for the RFE now.


yea i survived lastnight with a book and a cup of coffee until i fell asleep. :)

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresRFE
Got an email this morning stating they sent me a letter in the mail about requesting further evidence. Im pretty sure I know what it is, it maybe about my job. I was working when i filled out all of the paperwork, but did not change any of it when i went on maternity leave, and when i sent in all of the paperwork i was on maternity leave. I am not on maternity leave any longer, decided to be a stay at home mom and work freelance building websites. Personal money, no company. But i do have a co-sponsor my mom, and she makes $75,000 a year, so im covered good there. Will it be a problem that i no longer work AFTER fileing the paperwork with a current job on it?

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresTrouble in the relationship
I too know what you are going through. Me and my fiance have been apart now a full year. I would have been able to file for the petition sooner but some major problems came up and then i had a hard pregnancy and after that it was just He**. I am sick of the bad connection phone calls, the text messenging, and the online chats. I have also at times questioned all of this, but it was more about, will our relationship hold out until the visa is issued. I have the option of moving back to Romania to be with him, but i know it wouldnt be good to our 8 month old son. I dont feel its safe to take him overseas just yet. Me and my fiance argue so much now, it is because of the distance, and the stress over the visa, i know this. But we always find a way to resolve things, because we love eachother, and the only thing we want in this world is to be together as a family.
If you love him, give it time and resolve all of your issues. Alot of people are right when they say you have time until your visa is issued. If you really have hard doubts about your relationship, and i mean super hard doubts, then maybe marriage would only ruin the relationship. Its not healthy to go through with something you really are having doubts about just because the wait is almost over.
I wish you all of the luck, and remember your not alone out there. When your apart from your loved one, anything and everything can cause hard feelings, especially when you have to resolve them over the phone or chat. Its heartbreaking, but as long as you love the person, anything is worth being together, even this long drawn out visa wait, and the arguments and fights inbetween.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresHow many peopel waited to file I129F
waited almost 6 years, i lived with him for a year in romania in 2003-2005 before we decided to get married. And we met back in 2000.
Its fine to wait or file right away, either way its the decision of both of you on whats best for both of you.
Good luck!

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresRFE confusion
Ok first the divorse/marriage bulls**t!
I filed for divorse from my ex husband 10 YEARS ago through one of those quicky divorse lawyers. It cost me $250 and i did NOT have to appear in court. I was later sent a divorse notice (which God forbid me after all of the moving I have done and one fire in my apartment, not sure where that thing is). Anyway i went back to romania in January of 05 for the intent of getting married to Ed. We did so, I signed something stating i was eligible to marry in romania bla bla. Well when I came back to Florida I tried to change my name, they let me change my name on my DL, but not on my ss card, i had to go to the court house to have it legally changed. So when i did so they told me I was not able to use my current romanian marriage cert because it was invalid due to i was still OMG STILL married to my ex husband!! So I had to hire another lawyer, and i did, one of the best here in my city, to make sure it was done RIGHT. It was, and i am not married to my ex FINALLY! imagine his surprise too when 10 yrs later hes being asked to sign another divorse paper. Anyway so our romanian marriage is NOT valid. But I did send it in as proof of relationship AND stated in my intent to marry letter all the info i just gave to all of you.
So now they send me an RFE asking me for a marriage certificate for me and Ed and well its above. :)
I finally contacted my lawyer, and he said to just write a letter explaining AGAIN all of this, that there is NO valid marriage cert for us, therefore me filing for the FIANCE VISA! And he said to go ahead and attach the romanian marriage certificate anyway with the explanation.
phew, i believe thats it :)
And theres an A# on the RFE, i thought those were given AFTER an approval.

SinergyFemaleRomania2006-02-27 16:09:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresRFE confusion
I received the RFE today, it has me a bit confused.
Here is what it reads:
Submit photocopies of the documents requested.
MARRIAGE CERTIFICATE: Submit a marriage certificate issued by the civil authorities for Tara Beth Miller and Eduard Ionescu. The certificate must indicate that after the marriage ceremony, it was registered or recorded by the county,state, or province.

OK, the only marriage certificate I have is the one we got in romania, and its not legal due to some problems my ex husband placed upon me 10 years ago and i wasnt even aware until i tried to have my name changed. Therefore our romanian marriage certificate isnt worth much. I did however send it though as a proof of relationship, and it is translated on the actual document from Romanian into English and French.

next:
FOREIGN LANGUAGE DOCUMENTS: Any document containing a language other than english must be submitted with a full english translation. The translator must certify that the translation is complete and accurate and that he or she is competent to translate. NOTE: the requested foreign language document must be submitted with the english translation.

I sent no document in with romanian. Everything i sent in was in english already. I think i sent in a photocopy of his passport and ID and birth certificate, but i dunno, im really stressing over this.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresEverydays A Day Closer To Your Partners Arms
1 year, 1 month and 1 day since i have seen edi :( !!! i sometimes think i cant take the wait anymore, ready to sell everything i have , pack up the kids and go to him, but then i use my brain a lil and realise i cant do that. :crying:
I know this wait causes alot of emotional pain, but its also catching up physically. the stress has given me chest pain alot, alot is missing edi and all that, the other part is not knowing when he will be here, and the last is, it was hard being a single mom with my 10 yr old for 10 yrs, now i have 2, and its HARD, we didnt think he would still be in romania at this time. But you never can predict the USCIS!

"to whom it may concern covers it all"

Glad to hear that, because thats all I or my fiance put on our letters. I didnt know about this site yet and didnt know what to put on the letter heading, so no RFE's on THAT part of the petition so i guess we are ok. I will however remember to do it correctly when i send him the second intent to marry letter after approval.

Get married at the justice of the peace first, then apply for AOS, that way your safe and within the 90 days. After wards then do the church wedding. Thats my plans, the week he is here we are getting married, then around June, when school is out for my daughter and my family can take summer breaks from work to come down here to be here for the celebration we will do the traditional church wedding.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresWhat do you do to keep from losing your mind ?
I hate waiting for anything, im so impatient. The only thing i found to take my mind off of things for a little while until im calmer is to rearrange rooms in my house, or go to the gym. My fiance is a rock climber, so when hes stressing over this wait he goes climbing. Nothing really takes your mind off of it completely though. Me and my fiance's son looks exactly like him, so no matter what i do when i see Joshua, i think about my fiance. But i find physical work to be the best for me.
