Up until you get to the consulate, the process is exactly the same for everyone from every country. Nobody gets preferential treatment because they are from a particular country, though some people do get a LOT of extra scrutiny because of the country they are from. Some consulates do work faster than others, so that might make a difference. The US Embassy in London tends to be pretty fast and relatively easy, compared to many other countries.

Be careful how you phrase things. Some people might be very offended if they think you are implying that UK citizens are somehow better than citizens of other countries, and deserve a "fast track" immigration process. While the UK is a longtime friend and ally of the United States, citizens of the UK have no more right to immigrate to the US than citizens of any other nation. Also, even though immigration fraud is lower in the UK than it is in many other countries, it DOES happen, so the process is just as necessary for UK citizens as it is for everyone else. It's not "dumb" that English people have to go through this.

No, it's not a problem as long as you list the child on the I-129F. If you fail to list the child then the consulate might suspect he hasn't told you about the child, and they might question him about it.

If he was previously married then be sure you have a certified copy of his divorce decree. You must submit that with the I-129F.

And should i also submit a birth certificate of his child?

No. You don't need to submit any documentation for the child. The main thing is that the consulate knows you are aware of the child.

The I-129F specifically asks for a list of all children, and not just children who are intending immigrants. Children of K1 beneficiary's have derivative status, meaning they can get a visa because their parent is getting a visa. However, the child would need the same documentation from you in order to apply for the visa at the consulate, including a separate affidavit of support. The child isn't going to get a K2 visa if you don't sponsor him, but his father could still petition to bring his son to the US once he becomes an LPR. The consulate wants to know that you are aware of this. Declaring the child on the I-129F will satisfy them.

Alright a couple more questions.

The paperwork that my fiance has to fill out at the embassy there is a question stating Do you want the social security administration to assign you a SSN and issue a card?

I dont know what he should check off and we want to be prepared when he is at the embassy for his interview.

Also for the last year he has been on the visa wavier program and has been in and out of the country every three months until he got denied this last time because he didnt have the right visa, it states on the 325 A that he shuld list his residence in the last five years He was staying at his dads house while in america, well coming between my house and his fathers should he put his fathers address as well???

He only lived there for three months at a time?

Thank you

He will complete the paperwork prior to the interview. Unless things happen differently at the London embassy.

Read the Guides and the Example Forms. Residence is a person's legal address. At his dad's in the US he was visiting.
