I filed my 129-f in august so i am patiently waiting and its not easy! My girl was an au pair in america for about 2 years. Thats how we met and so happend to be christmas night at a local restaurunt! Also she lived in my same neighborehood ! Now shes 1000's of miles away ;[. SO im still waiting for my no2 which i hope i should get by february. she is going to be going to the embassy in rio, has anyone been there? Lastly when her au pair visa expired she went back to brazil to file for a student visa but was DENIED. She had alll her paperwork and everything, not sure why. Will this denile effect that we are giong for a 129f? Thanks guys i just hope everything goes smoothly because im loosing my hair. haha

My fiance and I were at the embassy in Rio a few weeks ago. Everyone was nice and polite and the interview went very smoothly. She should be fine. I know in Brazil they have a lot of requirements they have to fulfill in order to get any type of visa so I would think her denial of a student visa wouldn't be a big deal now.

did they give her a letter as to why she was denied or did they tell her why,

Thanks for the info! That makes me feel alittle bit better ;]

I do not remember exactly what it said, but it was a common denile letter they sent her. I think it was something along the lines of they did not beileve it was her true intent to come back to America. Part of me beileves she litterly was here for 2 years went home and within a months time tried to come back to America. I think thats the reason. So we made our decison to get married and file for the 129F. I guess they were kind of right because really she wanted to come back for me and go to school as well. haha
