Hi everyone. I hope someone can give me some advice.

Me and my fiance have recieved NOA1 a couple months ago. Im visiting him in 2 days and I was wondering if I need to bring copies of all documents for our petition form.

I already got "Employment Certificate" letter and "Certificate of leave" letter from my company. Also I have a resident record of the city Im living and a copy of NOA1 letter.

Is it still better to have copies of all documents for our I-129F ?

Hi,

I just wanted to add that I have visited the US, to see my fiancee on the VWP, and told the officer at immigration that I was to see my fiancee. I believe he asked about the K-1, and I just told him that we were looking to apply for it soon (which was the truth).

He wasn't interested in seeing any information, other than my passport and flight/travel itinerary. I'm sure it comes down to where you enter in the country, and who you get.

Thank you for your add! It totally eased my mind a little.

I have done a lot of thinking and I think I will tell immigration officer that I am here to see my fiance.

It might be a bad idea to volunteer and tell him/her that but I dont feel comfortable about not being honest.

I am going to bring a letter from my company, return ticket ,copy of my resident record and a copy of NOA1 as information.

I will be honest and just have to hope for the best its too late to worry now.

I wish good luck to everyone who are trying to visit their fiance and I will post how thing goes at immigration.

Wish me luck!

Thanks everyone!

I have just got back from a 2week stay with Rob.

When i arrived at RDU I was half expecting to be asked loads of questions,who/where/what etc...i was pleasantly surprised when the only thing i had to show was my return ticket!

I had a letter from my employer stating leave dates but apart from that i only had my return ticket to prove i was coming back. I didn't volunteer the information that i was in process of visa application but had they been asked i would have been honest.

I'm not sure if this will be the same when i go back out for Christmas as it will be further down the visa application and hopefully by then NOA2 will be received...ever hopefull for the elusive NOA2!! haha

Boyfriend or fiancee is truly a matter of semantics as far as CPB is concernced...what term you chose to identify your man with is not their concern. And you're not lying by stating that you're coming to visit your boyfriend....he is that AND your fiancee AND your other half AND the man you're going to marry....you get the picture? On your tourist visa application, yes you needed to put the address where you are staying, and you may very well have had to identify your relationship to the person who'se address you've listed...but again, the term "fiance" is just an identifier. The general advice is to not volunteer too much information at POE, lest it cause you trouble by showing that you have immigrant intent when coming here. This may cause the CPB officer to reject your attempt to enter. Just answer the questions calmly, but without telling them your life story. :)

I would take a copy of your visa petition, but not bring it forth...just keep it in your bag. If the entry questioning goes in that direction, you can produce the paperwork.

Good luck and have a good time seeing your man.
