I was wondering what is the difference between the types of nonimmigrant and immigrant visas (forms).Why do we fill out forms which say nonimmigrant or immigrant on top of the forms? For example in packet 3 the forms will have one title or other on the forms.Iam at the point where I dont know if iam filing for an nonimmigrant or immigrant visa.Sorry for the dumb questions, maybe I am just over thinking this stuff.

You fill out both immigrant and nonimmigrant forms because the K-1 is a strange hybrid: a nonimmigrant visa with immigration intent.

In short, you fill out the forms the consulate tells you to fill out, disregarding whether they say immigrant or nonimmigrant on top. The example forms here on VJ are a great resource in figuring out how to fill them out.

Improved USCIS Form G-325A (Biographic Information)

Form field input font changed to allow entry of dates in the specified format and to provide more space for addresses and employment history. This is the 6/12/09 version of the form; the current version is 8/8/11, but previous versions are accepted per the USCIS forms page.

Some of the forms I'm filling out for the K1 Visa interview are the same I had to fill out when I applied for a nonimmigrant visa (J1) a few years ago. Just give them what they ask you to. Good luck!
