[Nathan&Cata 5]

Hello to everyone, My fiance and I have been in an official relationship for 5 months... I knew him before that because we attended the same church when I was an aupair in the USA. We dated for some time and then we decided to start a serious relationship. We spent a lot of time together before I had to come back to Colombia because my program was over. He came to Colombia to visit me for my birthday and he brought me my engagement ring. We talk everyday and night by face time and i message because we both have iphones... Now I have some questions and I would like please to get some answers:

1. Do we have a short time in a relationship to start the K1 proccess?

2. We don't normally use skype, or phone cards, or email because we easily can talk by face time. We don't know how to get the register of this phones since we normally use wifi...How can we prove that we are a lot in touch then?

3. My fiance has been talking to a lawyer, but I am not sure about that because I know lawyers can charge a lot money...and I don't think we need one because I consider we can start this process in our own, but we are scared also that we might do something wrong because we don't know a lot about this. This lawyer asked him for pictures,but he hasn't asked anything about me, like my passport pictures,or my biographic form, or my letter statement. I told my love we need to add these documents also when he starts the process, I know this because I have been reading a lot about it, but he believes more what the lawyer says because he has a lot experience about immigration processes. So I would like you to please help me so my love can see this post and believe what I have told him already.

Anyone who can help us would be great...thanks.....

You don't need a copy of the petition. The only thing you might need from that petition is any proof of relationship evidence you submitted which you should have still have. You absolutely do not need to bring a copy of the I-129F petition to the interview.

To answer your question, you cannot get a copy from USCIS. 600 dollars for a copy? Not even worth it in my opinion.

NO! (I really wish VJ would remove that BS.)

You need what is listed in the embassy instructions letter. PERIOD.

BTW (in my opinion) your attorney should be giving you copies of anything and everything related to the service she is providing (maybe a hint of filing a complaint with the Bar Assoc would straighten her out). You got a wiener there!

For the K-1 visa process in Manila follow the flashing arrow below (seems I posted this to you before)

Oh ya, you would do better to post your questions for the visa process in Manila in the Philippines forum: http://www.visajourney.com/forums/forum/129-philippines/

you dont need it but to fill ds-160 you have to fill exact the same info what you did in 1-129f, just save money, and if you fill ds-160 dont forget to save it.

OP, luckily you were approved. You don't need it for the interview. I sent a copy to my fiancee, which she brought to the interview, but they never asked for it. The only reason why VJ guidelines recommend making copies is because if your packet to USCIS gets lost, you have a backup ready to go. The reason they ask you to send a copy to your fiance(e) is so that (s)he can look it over to become familiar with the content.
