dates on K1 forms

[Sebastiangator 0]

I have had a couple of financial setbacks that have prevented me from submitting my K1 Packet. A few of the dates on the forms are atleast a year old. I have since recovered financialy. Is this going to be an issue? It will be two years since we have visited in person in August. Thanks in advance.

Sincerely,

Glen L.

which dates? dates on forms that you signed? can you cross them out and initial them? as far as seeing your fiancee, if you have met within the last two years before filing your petition then you are fine.

The only requirement for the petition to be approved is having met within the last two years and the petitioner being a USC. After that the process moves to the Embassy/Consulate in the country of the beneficiary and that is where it becomes specific and you may have to provide a ton of relationship evidence or very little. Given what I have read about the PI and the K-1 visa process, you may want to make another visit. If the dates you are talking about are for signatures, I would resign them with a more recent date as the date of the signature is saying that everything is true and correct as of this date. It is not a date I would want to cross out and change. YMMV.

Good lcuk,

Dave

Why don't you simply make out new forms?

Wow, thanks for such a speedy reply to my post. The reason I didn't want to re-print the forms was that some them I had notorized and date and time stamped. Good idea regarding resigning and dating. I have seen that done on other legal documents didn't know if the U.S. or Phlippines governments would accept that. Thanks again.

My only concern is that you may have a difficult time showing a bona fide relationship if the last time you saw each other was nearly 2 years ago. Otherwise, it's not a problem at all.

Sorry didn't mean to muddy the water. Yes my concern is the dates on forms that I and my fiance have signed. We Skype each other atleast twice a day and on the weekends. And post on F/B as well. I have sent gifts to her and her family over the past year. I have receipts, photos, and bill of ladens as well. I had plan on printing out a few pages of highlighted Skype conversations etc. to include as well. Is that enough? Thanks again for all the assistance.

First you do not need anything notorized on the US end.

Second you must have seen her within two years of filing from the US side of things. As one mentioned, knowing this process is taking 5-8 months (and you nearing the 2 year limit) you may for good nature want to make a return trip if possible just for piece of mind as well as the interviewer knowing you returned recently to see your fiancee. Or make 10000% sure you have a lot of proof of on going relationship, chat logs, phone receipts, money transfer receipts etc. Over prepare is best.

As long as you are earning above the 125% poverty level gudelines then you meet the criteria to sponsor. Since you are recently back to work review one of my posts as to the total costs A-Z that I posted last month. Others found the total costs close to what they spent on this process.

Good luck

None of the forms or documents for the I-129F petition need notarization.

Salamat, LSnBigBear, for the help and advice. Never stopped working had a misshap but have recovered fully. Income was just suffering but is above the 125% threshold. I think I have proof of an on going relationship, chat logs, money transfer receipts about every other month or so. Emails of copies of the few letters that made it to her. I don't want to over do it as well because I've read that is not good to do. I figured atleast 3 to 5 pages of emails, the same number for chats in Skype and scanned copies of letters. These correspondence span approximately two and a half years. Thanks again.

Thanks again for all the help uh one more question? (yeah, we've heard that one before)

Did the cost for k1 go up last time I checked it was $240.00.

The visa processing fee for applying for a K-1 visa at the consulate IS $240. However, the I-129F petition filing fee is $340. That is actually lower than it used to be a couple years ago. All current forms, fees, mailing addresses, etc. can be found on the USCIS website and in the form instructions.

The K-1 visa application fee is still $240, payable in pesos at the prevailing exchange rate.
