What are the chances of us being denied?

[BlueBonnet 84]

There arnt that many requirments to K1 - for approval

Have met at least 1x the last 2 years

Both free and legal to marry

Hmmmm ... pretty simple there. Your concern is more about the evidence, send chat logs, phone logs and pictures, travel documents ( tickets and itineries ). Gifts, like cards, reciepts, hotel reciepts, things like that.

During the K1 its not really about proof, because you have met the requirements, at your interview though, thats where your evidence is really needed.

Good Luck !

Hello all!

My fiancé and I met online about a year ago now. From the day we met, we have had Skype conversations every single day for hours at a time. I think in the entire year, we've only missed 10 or 11 days. We Started dating December 2010, and carried on the relationship until we met for the first time in June 2011. He lives in Arizona and I live in Ontario, Canada. We both traveled to New York to attend his cousin's wedding, where he proposed to me while we were dancing. After being in New York for 2 weeks, we came back here for an additional 2 weeks, and then he went home. Last month (October), I went and visited him for 12 days, and when I returned home, he purchased a plane ticket to come and spend Christmas with me (December 19th until January 7th 2012). We continue to have an amazing relationship going, we have never fought about anything, and we love each other more than anything in the entire world.

We sent our 1-129f application in September 16th, and they mailed it back at the beginning of October because the amount of the cheque was wrong, so we have to re-mail it with the proper cheque.

Our plans were for me to move to Arizona as soon as we were approved, but I'm really nervous we'll be denied because we've only been together for a year, and only been engaged for almost 6 months.

What do you think the chances of us being denied are because of the amount of time we've been together?

Also, would it be a good idea to send in the plane ticket receipt for him coming next month when we send in the new cheque? And would pictured from our visit last month improve any chances?

Thank you so much for your help!

You won't get denied for this reason. So don't even give it another worry. I met my husband in January, married in October and filed in October 3 days after wedding and our case was seamless, we got approved and I did my POE July 29th. Love is a mysterious thing, we cannot control how relationships grow and blossom if they were meant to be. Good luck!

the main requirement is having met PERSONALLY WITHIN the last two years and if you read posts here in VJ, you'll see that 6 months is not too short =)

Here is the link to the Canada section, you can get a lot of good information there. http://www.visajourney.com/forums/forum/93-canada/

You have absolutely no problems with knowing each other a short time. That is a non issue.

Hello,

My fiance' and I had met in December of 2010 also and have a very similar story . We haven't missed much more than a few days also and we use Skype,Yahoo and International minute through Magicjack to see and talk to each other. We cant stand being away from each other for more than what it takes us to sleep . I went to see her in August of 2011 for 9 days and it was the best 9 days of my life. I met her in Manila and stayed there for 2 days then went to Boracay for 3 days and then to her moms house in Bocalad for the remainder where I was welcomed by most of the neighborhood and family . I went back home in Maryland and started filling out the forms and documents for the I129f ,We had our 1NOA on September 8, 2011. I was fortunate enough to have a friend who went through an K-3 visa and he helped me fill it out and we checked it 4 times before we sent it . We had tons of pictures, hotel and plane ticket receipts and had everything labeled explaining what it was .We are 81 days into the process and looking at maybe after the first of the year to be approved . We wish you the best of luck
