K-3 Spouse Visa Process & Procedures	I129F extension	Hi, I've been in the same situation, my husband is an USC. He has sent a fax to the Embassy in Romania, the Immigrant Visa Unit , requesting the extension . I think you should call them and ask, just to be sure. The letter was something like this: Name and address...... USA March 1st , 2006 Immigrant Visa Section U.S. Embassy in Romania ATTN: Head of Immigrant Visa Section Department Subject: Extending the validity of the I-129F Petition Dear Sir, Undersigned ............... US citizen, I am writing you in connection with the I-129F petition that has been approved on July 21st, 2005 and has been forwarded by NVC to the U.S Embassy in Romania. The beneficiary is my wife,........... Romanian citizen and currently living in Romania. She will apply for a K3 visa in July 2006, after she had completed the two–year foreign residence requirement of the J1 visa. Given the reason presented above, I respectfully ask you to extend the validity of the I-129F petition until my spouse, ..............., will be allowed to apply for a K3 visa at the US Embassy in Romania. Sincerely, ...................[i] I hope this helps. You should call them , just in case you need to fax them a request. I wish you luck. Daniela	so_confused	Not Telling	Romania	2006-07-11 08:07:00
K-3 Spouse Visa Process & Procedures	Question 8, form ds-156 - complicated	You have used your married name, and I wouldn't be surprised if you've used it at places other than the bank. Yodrak You would be surprised, but I haven't used it "at places other than the bank". But you're right, I have used it and I will put it on the form. That's all I wanted , a simple answer.	so_confused	Not Telling	Romania	2006-07-15 02:31:00
K-3 Spouse Visa Process & Procedures	Question 8, form ds-156 - complicated	Thanks a lot, your answers helped me a lot. My paranoia has an excuse, I've been away from my husband because of a former J1 visa with 2 year residence requirement, I just want to do it right and be back with my honey. I wish you all the best. For Yodrak: I haven't used my married name at all, I'm still in my country, you cannot use a name here unless you have an ID (passport or national ID), I had no reason to use it, most of the people here wouldn't know how to spell it and I didn't want to complicate my life. Thanks anyway for the reply.	so_confused	Not Telling	Romania	2006-07-14 12:45:00
K-3 Spouse Visa Process & Procedures	Question 8, form ds-156 - complicated	I have a question about form DS-156 for K3 visa. I will apply on July 19th and I'm really paranoid about filling out the forms. The question 8: Other names used...... In my case, it's a little complicated. Me and my husband have a bank account in US on both names, my name on this account is my husband's last name, the lady at the bank changed it and asked only for the marriage certificate. All my other documents are on my maiden name, I didn't want to change anything because I was afraid not to mess it up, the petition was on my maiden name and everything else. Now, should I declare this name from the bank account as "other name used", even if it's not a name shown on any ID? Tnaks a lot.	so_confused	Not Telling	Romania	2006-07-14 03:04:00

Eu am mai fost de 2 ori si nu am avut probleme cu zborul, sper ca nici acum sa nu fie..si nici cu bagajele, la alea am emotii ca am 2 de cala .	ALE_24	Female	Romania	2012-07-06 00:37:00
Europe & Eurasia (except the UK and Russia)	Hello Romania!!!	Multumesc , da stiu ca la POE trebuie sa dau pachetul ala sigilat si probabil o sa imi puna niste intrebari legate de casnicie nu? Intrebarile sunt genul celor de la ambasada?	ALE_24	Female	Romania	2012-07-05 03:07:00

Europe & Eurasia (except the UK and Russia)	Hello Romania!!!	Buna!! FaithInGod eu am mai ramas in tara pentru ca mai am de rezolvat cate ceva cu masterul, sunt an terminal.Mi-am luat biletul in schimb si abia astept sa trec de POE .Eu nu am primit nici o notificare de la ambasada din Ro, am primit un email de la NVC in care scria ca data interviului este pe 2 aprilie, ora 13 si ce anume au de la mine si ce mai trebuie adus: un fisier in care era o lista de documente si statusul acestora: original, taxa platita, etc. Si cum am aflat asta am sunat la BioMedica si am programat examenul medical. Ei comunicau cu noi prin email, de fiecare data cand primeau taxele de la noi, sau lipsea ceva ne scriau..bifasem undeva sa foloseasca adresa de email in detrimentul postei, pentru ca e mult mai rapid. Legat de posta sau curier, eu cand mi-am primit pasaportul cu pachetul de documente, l-am primit prin curier si am achitat pe loc o taxa de 25 de RON.Deci probabil asa vor proceda si in cazul tau..

Europe & Eurasia (except the UK and Russia)	Hello Romania!!!	Felicitari! Daca te referi la plicul pe care trebuie sa il primesti cu appointment-ul la interviu, eu una nu am primit absolut nimic de la romani, am stiut data interviului de la NVC din SUA, mi-au dat email si apoi mi-am programat eu analizele medicale si m-am pregatit de interviu.

Europe & Eurasia (except the UK and Russia)	Hello Romania!!!	Buna.Multumesc mult.Nu, in februarie m-am inregistrat eu pe forum .Am inceput la mijlocul/sfarsitul lui noiembrie, ar fi durat mai putin daca nu aveam un delay la viza + cateva saptamani in care sotul a fost in Ro cu mine si nu a primit corespondenta de la Usics/NVC, dar e bine si asa.Ma bucur ca s-a terminat si ca nu mai avem problema asta pe cap Tu esti deja in State?Vad ca esti tot pe CR1/IR1 ca si mine.Mult succes si tie.

Europe & Eurasia (except the UK and Russia)	Hello Romania!!!	Neata!! Am sunat la ambasada si am vb cu o doamna si a zis ca actele par in regula, trebuie sa le vada si un consul american si dupa aia, in cursul zilei de azi ar trebui sa mi se puna viza, urmand sa trimita maine prin curier..deci la mine ar ajunge cam luni!!! Oh, Doamne, sper sa fie bine!!	ALE_24	Female	Romania	2012-04-19 04:03:00
Europe & Eurasia (except the UK and Russia)	Hello Romania!!!	Buna!

Europe & Eurasia (except the UK and Russia)	Hello Romania!!!	Adevarat a inviat! Paste fericit tuturor! Sper ca ati petrecut bine ). Vin si eu cu vesti semi-bune!Tocmai mi-a venit noul pachet cu I-864 din SUA, avem alt joint sponsor.L-am trimis urgent spre Bucuresti impreuna cu pasaportul si ajunge maine in jur de ora 10:00.Sper ca de data asta sa fim acceptati si sa iau viza! Oare ma anunta prin vreun email ceva ...am asa niste emotii..oare in cate zile aflu..? ~x( Am impresia ca ei trebuie sa imi trimita un pachet ceva, pentru Port of Entry, cu actele mele:formulare, cazier + examinarea medicala.Ciudat e ca eu am o parte din examinarea medicala acasa si plicul e desfacut de la interviu, probabil restul imi trimit ei intr-un pachet sigilat pe care il arat eu la POE. Seara buna tuturor! Acasa am radiografia la plamani.	ALE_24	Female	Romania	2012-04-17 15:18:00
Europe & Eurasia (except the UK and Russia)	Hello Romania!!!	Buna dimineata! Deci se poate oare cu contul din banca? Momentan am gasit si vreo 2 persoane, sa vedem acum daca nu se razgandesc.. Multumesc Eu nu inteleg daca ei se refera la contul sponsorului, joint sponsorului sau la al meu acolo.Si mai zic si ca sursa trebuie sa continue si dupa ce plec in SUA..sunt destul de confuza, daca nu se rezolva cu joint sponsor sun si ii intreb la ambasada.

Europe & Eurasia (except the UK and Russia)	Hello Romania!!!	When assets are used, the assets must equal 5 times the difference between the annual income and the needed 125% of the poverty level, this is because the affidavit is in effect for 5 years. For instance, if you needed $15,500 income and had an annual income of $13,500, you would need an extra $2,000 of assets for 5 years, or a total of $10,000 in assets in addition to your income. In general, if you are deficient on yearly income for sponsorship and your assets are somewhat borderline, do not take chances--have a co-sponsor. If you do not have a job or a steady income from other sources (such as retirement income), you will likely have to get a co-sponsor for your spouse, even if your assets are adequate. The USCIS looks VERY CLOSELY at current income and not just the assets. La asta ma refer..poate pot pune diferenta intr-un cont bancar al meu si demonstrez ca am.De exemplu diferenta la noi e de 15 mii..daca eu as avea 45 de mii in banca oare s-ar rezolva? Undeva vazusem ca pentru "spouse" trebuie de 3 ori diferenta	ALE_24	Female	Romania	2012-04-05 12:09:00
Europe & Eurasia (except the UK and Russia)	Hello Romania!!!	Si inca o intrebare: conteaza varsta joint sponsorului? Adica daca e mai in varsta e vreo problema?	ALE_24	Female	Romania	2012-04-05 09:31:00
Europe & Eurasia (except the UK and Russia)	Hello Romania!!!	Buna tuturor again! Am avut interviul, a decurs bine..dar doar interviul, deoarece nu am putut lua viza, nu ne calificam la affidavit of support.Sunt atat de suparata, trebuie sa ne gasim alt joint sponsor si sunt foarte stresata.Stie cineva daca as putea contribui si eu cu contul meu din banca?Si cam cat ar trebui sa fie?Se poate aplica chestia aia cu de 3 ori diferenta dintre cat trebuie- cat are joint sponsorul meu?
