Hello,

I'm new here at visajourney and so glad found this site. My fiance filed the K1 petition last March, and we received notice of receipt last March 18, 2008. The last touch seen in the website was last April 7, 2008. What we are wondering is when to prepare the affidavit of support and where to submit it? Is he going to just send it to me (notarized original copies) for my visa interview? Or he needs to submit it to Vermont Service Center?

Pls. enlighten me on this. Hoping for your prayers too that I receive the approval very very soon. Thanks a lot.

When the I-129f that your American fiance submitted to Vermont is approved, he will get a notice called an NOA2. Vermont Service Center will then forward the whole file to the National Benefits Center for the next stage of processing, then shortly afterwards (a week or two) The National Center will forward the whole package to the Consulate responsible for where you live. They will then send you a package of information advising you of what you need to get together. When you have everything ready, they schedule you for the interview. One of the things that you need to bring to the interview (you will know what you need to bring because it will be listed in the package you receive) is the completed I-134 Affidavit of Support from your fiance along with the requested financial documents (bank statements, letter from employer, etc) to verify the information on the Affidavit of Support. Basically, part one of the process is done by your fiance and handled in the States; part 2 of the process is handled by you and is handled by the US Consulate where you live.

Good luck in getting a quick approval. (If you fill out your information and timeline those who are using the same Consulate can also respond and give you specific details for that Consulate.)

rubchett,

This question was JUST posted yesterday and there have been like five responses to it.

First, I recommend you read the guides to better educate yourself on the process. Second, I recommend you search for your question first to see if it has been asked already, for chances are it's been asked before, 100 times over.

But to answer your question, No your fiance will send it YOU and YOU will bring it to the embassy for your interview. You don't send ANYTHING to VSC. You don't deal with ANYONE but the embassy.
Good luck, and please read the guides.
