Ok alot of you already know me and keiths situation. So I have some questions. We are talking now and no promises to each other but we are still very much in love and I want to know what our options are. We did the k1 , we got approval. we got packet 3 and then broke up. Like I said we are talking now so I want to know if I can request an extension on the k1 as it expires in march? I dont want to give this up completely as then we would have to start all over again. If we can get a extension to hold off on the interview until we are ready then what do I have to do and how long will they give us? I also know that once the interview is done and the visa is in hand we have 6 months to use it.

Our biggest problem was a cosponsor as they kept backing out at the last second and that caused alot of stress. If we can get the extension then it will give me enough time to find a second job in order to meet the guidelines. Now where I didnt work much last year.. only made about $ 11,500 that includes child support as I spent half the year in england , will they take a letter from my employers now to cover the money needed to sponsor him if we continue with this route? This part has always confused me alot.

I am willing to move to England to be with him if that is another option for us but right now I want to see what we have in options with everything.

Thanks

Chelle

Yes, if you increase your current income, they'll accept documentation of that. Petitions can be extended in four month increments. It would be good to simply request the extension without elaborating about why. Something as simple as, "We need more time to get our paperwork together." will do nicely.

Yes, contact your respective embassy.

We had no problems at all rescheduling the interview for a month and, apparently, it's not that much of a hassle to extend the petition either (I still hope we won't need it). Our simple explanation was - my fiance wants to be here for the interview, but can't make it prior to April 1st and we need some more time to collect all the paperwork, too. This was in Croatia.
