US Embassy and Consulate Discussionrquired vaccinations
i'm having her get the vaccinations before hand so she can just hand the doctor the records showing recent vaccinations. is that what is required or do they give the vaccinations at the time of the medical checkup?

US Embassy and Consulate Discussionrquired vaccinations
i have found a list of required vaccinations for all immigrant visa applicants to have before entering the untied states. in the article it states that a physician will review the records of vaccinations & could require some vaccinations to be repeated. my question is why would the physician require that & which ones would he possible require to be repeated?

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & Proceduresform I-485

i'm recently back from the phillipines where i married my wife. we are now looking to start the visa process. we figured that the CR-1/IR-1 process is the route we are going. going off the information from visa journey website i've gathered up the required documentation for this process. the USCIS website lists another form I-485 as a form to be processed along with the other forms but visa journey didn't list this form.

is this form required to process the CR-1/IR-1 visa?



thanks for your help.

i've read them & most makes sense to me but still uncertain about if i'm filling the right forms out correctly. would it be helpful if i send the I-864 affidavit of support with all the documentation now?

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & Proceduresmarriage license after wedding.
we did apply for the license 4 days before the wedding, the wedding plans were made for the 22nd. everyone kept telling me it's ok & not to worry about it. the maggiage license is goin to be dated after i've come back all the official paperwork if filed & going to be signed off by the correct people my concern is will the date on the license will show a date after i've come back. the wedding was mostly being held for the family members. will it be a problem to have the license dated after the date that i've come home?

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & Proceduresmarriage license after wedding.

your question wasnt so clear to me at all. but ill tell you something concrete about philippine law.


you should have to apply for your marriage license before the wedding. legally, there is a 10 day waiting period prior to issuance of a license. this license is valid for 120 days once approved. and u can get marry anywhere in the philippines. if I am getting your question correctly, this is my question to yah, how come, u marry without even applying for a license?

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & Proceduresmarriage license after wedding.
to all who helped with my last question thank you.


now on to my next question.

i'm filing for a IR-1 / CR-1 visa to bring my wife back from the philippines. we did the blessing from the church october 22nd. the issue that i'm not sure if it is an issue or not. we filed for the marriage license they told us there is a 10 day waiting period being we didn't have the 10 days to wait before i have to come back home we had the wedding & then showed the wedding date after the 10 days. which was after i had came back home. is this going to be a problem that the license is dated after i came back home. all the people that need to sign it are going to sign it so it should be legal still. is this a problem with processing the visa?

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Proceduresletter of intent to marry

The letter of intent could not possibly require information you cannot provide right this moment.

"I (name) intend to marry (name) within 90 days of my arrival in the USA on a K-1 visa"

what else do you need? Use the VJ sample letter.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedurescase number

no, that is the number used throughout the PETITION process... once the case moves to the Consulate it will be given a NEW number... this is not assigned until after the petition has been approved and the case file has been sent to NVC




does me fiancee use the WAC number when she goes to the embassey or the new number when i get it?

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedurescase number

If it's accepted, you'll receive I-797 (which is NOA1). Your case number will be on it.

Mine started with WAC (California) and has 10 numbers that follow.



so that is for certain the case number used throughout the whole visa process?
