[bornfree 0]

Hi all VJ members..

I am new here and my fiance just filed our K1.heres my story I have 4kids and my fiance's income is not suitable for 5persons so we just just 2 out of my 4kids for beneficiary since the children are not really interested to come with me to once we get approved.In biographic form we just declare and write 2 names of my kids.My question is would it be a problem in the future if when times of interview and ask how many kids I have I will answer "2" as what is written in the form G-325A.??I Am anxious if I will do the right thing.

any suggestion will be appreciated

thank you VJ members God Speed!

Yes - it would be an issue.

If a form asks you how many children you have - and you say "2" when you really have "4" - you just misrepresented yourself and opened yourself to bans for immigration. You have to answer the question in the context of the form/question.

For example - the I129F question 13 says to list all your children - it doesn't specify only the ones coming with you. So if you have 4 children, you would write their 4 names.

The affidavits will ask how many people you will sponsor. If only 2 children are coming with you, than that is what you write on that form for the count.

Of course it would be a problem to just not mention two of your children. The G-325A isn't asking how many children are coming with you, it's asking how many children you HAVE. The I-134 will be asking who is coming with you. Do not, EVER EVER EVER, misrepresent yourself on a form. It's just asking for trouble.

HI Bobby+Umit thank you for your quick reply...

we only put 2 names of my kids out of 4 in form I-129F.And already sent it on 2nd week july.So far we are still in a long process before the time of the approval and future interview and I have checked that we should need to fill up another DS form in actual interview where I can still fill up all the names of my kids would it be a problem that the I-129F is not Q #13 is not coincide to the DS 156form?

Hi Coconuts I appreciate your reply though I found it hard at first to understand the question I thought the one that list from the I-129f petition means tha,that is list of beneficiary and that should be a dependent..is there any possible idea I can do?

I'm not sure what the process will be for you since you failed to mention two of your children on the G-325A form. Hopefully someone here will be able to help you.

Really depends who is looking at your documents and what the embassy sees.

You could chalk up the 129 mistake as a "mistake" - since you could think they meant only the children you planned on bringing with you.

I suggest you carefully read and follow the instructions - don't guess or assume on questions, just answer what they are asking for.

The G-325A does not ask you to list your children. The I-129F does.

USCIS won't deny the petition for this because they have no clue how many kids you've got. However, it could be a significant problem at the interview, and it has been for some other VJ members. Every child under 21 is eligible to apply for a K2 visa, but if they aren't listed on the I-129F then the consulate may presume your US citizen fiance didn't know about them, and that perhaps you might have been hiding the additional children from him. This is one of the reasons some consulates won't accept a K2 visa application for a child that wasn't listed on the I-129F.

You'll be asked again on the DS-156K to list ALL of your children, and indicate for each one whether they will be coming with you or are applying later as a "follow to join" applicant. You will also be asked on the DS-156 to list the names and relationships of everyone who will be traveling with you. I strongly suggest you tell the truth on both of these forms.

There's nothing you can do about the I-129F. It's already been submitted. Unless your fiance gets an RFE then he won't have a chance to correct that form. He should probably prepare an affidavit indicating that he's aware of your other children, listing each by name, and indicating his failure to list them on the I-129F was because he misunderstood the requirements of the form. You can submit his affidavit with the forms you send to the consulate. How many children you've got is not a material fact that would affect whether or not the petition or visa are approved, so they shouldn't reject the petition as being improperly approved because of this.

If you and your fiance had done some advance research you would have known that the I-129F is not where you list the children who will be applying for derivative visas. You've got some time now. You should both be studying what will be required at the consulate so that you don't make a similar mistake. Some mistakes can have much more dire consequences.
