Hi Everybody,


Help me please! I am new here. I am scared in posting here and a bit depressed right now I don't know what to do since I decided to go back to my country and I am not going to marry my American fiance. I need your advice, opinions and suggestions. Our relationship did not work . I came here on a K1 visa and I know I need to leave soon before my 90 days expires this February. Do I need to tell the USCIS immigration or Philippine consulate that I will not marry my American fiance? Does anyone know if there will be future problem in getting another K1 or K3 for me as beneficiary with another man?

I'm sorry that things didn't work out for you, but I'm also a firm believer in it being better to discover that you want out before you get married rather than afterwards.

It seems a bit soon to be thinking about whether or not this might effect you in the future should you be in a similar situation - there's nothing to say that you would ever meet another American that you would want to marry, especially since you have already had a negative experience.

I don't believe you need to inform anyone about your decision to return home, but it would be on record with USCIS and you would likely be best being up front about it in the event that you meet and believe yourself to be in love with another American citizen in the future.

Good luck with your future and try to stay positive.

You don't have to do anything other than exit the USA, and turn in the I-94 card upon exit.

forgive me for asking this question, why you dont want to marry your fiancee is he abusive?

Why do you think that is relevant??? Its none of our business why! it does not change anything she is not yet married.

Just leave.

if you really think that your relationship wont work at all .. just buy ticket and go back to Philippine ... some Vj'ers mention that you need to turn in the I-94. so that simple... but asking about having problem about future problem in UsCIS the next time you apply for any K -visa or any visa to come here ... they will Question you about that,.. then just tell the truth..".the relationship dont work"

Only thing you need to do is Go back to your country.

GO HOME if you are not going to marry the USC. If in future you meet someone start the process again. If the US sees you left because it did not work, it will not be hard to get it again, but if you overstay, then you not be able to enter the US again.

im not sure but u might have to check out with immigration in the airport. when my husband was on k-3 visa he had too. dont know if it is so with k-1 but might be worth it in the end.

The Airline takes your I-94 when you check in to depart.

Once they forgot and I had to remind them.

It should be easy for you. Do this:

Leave the country before your 90 day visa expires. Go home.

Then write the National Visa Center a email. Write your case # and visa # at the top of email. Say you decided not to marry your American fiance. Write the date you left USA.

Attach scanned photocopy of
* passport biographic page (the one that has photo and name of you)
* Visa page
* Exit stamp from immigration officer showing you left USA on which date

I believe this is a better way to do this. It shows you did not break law and stay in a marriage for a visa. The USCIS can not deny you a visa later because you left your USA before your visa expired.

Thats the purpose of the I-94 being taken at the airport.

But does no harm.

On the bottom of the I-797 (NOA-2) it says:
***
If the petitioner and the fiance(e) do not marry within these 90 days, status will expire, and he or she will be in violation of the Immigration and Nationality Act if he or she does not depart. An extension cannot be granted. It is requested that the petitioner inform his or her local USCIS office if he or she determines that the marriage will not take place within the 90 day period. Please attach a copy of this notice to any correspondence about this case.
***

You really want to make sure you are gone before the 90 days are up so that you can come back one day.


Too bad it didn't work out but like somebody already said, it is better to find out now then later when you have kids. Good luck and don't be afraid to come here to VJ for help.

That is too bad, good luck. Hope it works out for you.

You obviously forgot you already replied to this huh?
