I-129F question 12

[JimTory 0]

I am currently visiting my fiance in the US and we are filling out and double checking all the forms and information to send off for the start of the K1 visa process. QUESTION 12. Is your fiance currently in the US? Yes, I am but I did not need a I-94 form to enter the US so didn't fill one out. Will the consulate identify this as a UK citizen I entered the US through the ESTA visa waiver scheme? Should I state 'yes' and explain with the visa waiver in the answer box?

Thanks everyboby for your help

i would put that as a no, you're just visiting and the way i see it the question basically means is the person living in the us

We were in exactly the same situation and we also used a service to help fill out the paperwork. On that question our caseworker answered yes and also put "Leaving date --/--/----.

Hope this helps.

Be totally truthful. Check YES, then explain and like the other poster mentioned put the date you are intending to leave.

You see it wrong. Read carefully, interpret literally "in the US" is not the same as "residing in the USA"

He should answer YES if he is present in the USA when he files the form. USCIS is fully aware of the VWP, it will be nothing new to them.

I was in the same situation and put something like None (Visa Waiver Programme). Submitted just a few weeks ago, so can't say for sure it didn't cause any problems, but seemed the simplest, most honest answer.

I was in the USA during xmas when we filed our I-129F

I remember we ticked YES and left the I-94 number blank and wrote in the box

Visitor on VWP (ESTA)

see passport page xx

The passport page shows the US entry stamp, I only stayed for 14 days but they gave me 3 months stamp.

I agree, answer Yes and then state VWP. The USCIS will determine that UK visitors won't have a I-94. There will be no harm to answering truthfulling and tons of potential harm is you do not.
