Does anybody have a more complete list of the K1 process?

I have seen the one here, but that outlines mainly justs the forms in order and when to turn them in.

I interested in more of the documents you need to attach to each form especially packet 3.

Thanks for your answers in advance.

I explained earlier that I seen that, that is just a flowchart of forms and the process and timeline.

I want a flowchart that outlines the attachments needed for each form. A detailed list.

do you want a back massage and foot rub to go with that? how about i dangle some grapes over your mouth so all you have to do is open your mouth and you'll get a grape like a roman god......ranting33va.gif Seriously.. google is your friend: headbonk.gif

send me a msg and i'll link you to the flow chart i have since i cant post it on here ...

If that doesn't work then start compiling your own flow chat with detailed instructions

HINT: its not hard if you take the time to actually read the forums and other links on this website to do research

I found the flowchart on here pretty useful as far as K-1 goes. Did you see this? There are other flowcharts but you can't post external links on this forum.

Actually, neither get a police check.

The beneficiary (foreign born fiance/fiancee) needs to order police reports for any country they have lived in longer than 6 months, with the exception of the US or a handful of other countries wherein such certificates are difficult to procure (see DOS website for detailed list).

The petitioning US citizen will not need to produce any written information regarding their criminal background unless they answer 'yes' to certain questions on the I129F. This is a really good time to remember that making any false statements (orally or in writing) to DHS can result in the permanent bar of any immigration benefits.

Oh, I know. But terminology means a lot with this stuff, so the more you learn the right terms the smoother your journey will be.

Hi,

I found this comment on police certificates, and it seems that you've answered the question I wanted to ask the members. I wondered if I have to get a criminal record in a case I've lived in the US longer than six months. I've lived there for last five years, actually, fist studying and then working, but now I'm back in Ukraine to complete the K-1 visa processing. (I got a police certificate from Ukrainian authorities already.)

So, in some other posting dated march06 I found that I don't need to get a criminal record from the U.S. but it was almost two years ago and there is a refernce to the package 3 and I found nothing there. And now I found your posting dated yesterday, so could you please tell me where you read it? I've uploaded package 3 from our Consulate website and have read it many times but found no special note about what I'm interested in. I admit I may have missed it of course but I'm glad I ran into your comment. Once I thought I had found it right here (see the link below in the "Police Certificate" section) but it seems that it's related to Immigrants, not to Non-immigrants who we are.

We're waiting for our NOA2 now and, since we filed yet in September, we're hoping to get the approval in next few weeks.

Thank you smile.gif .

Here's a cool link from the Norweigian embassy. It talks about immigrant visas, but as many consulates actually process K1's in their immigrant section, it's still appropriate. It's also general enough to serve as a good guide for all consulates.
