US Petitioner living overseas - Several Questions. Please help!

[girlygirl420 0]

I've already sent the I-129F. I live in South Korea and have been working for 3 years here (making over the 125% poverty level).

1.) On the I-129f, I wrote my Korean address on the form (since it says "mailing address), but I attached a supplementary form indicating my US address, as well as a copy of my driver's license.

I've read that the NOA can only be sent to a US address. Is this true? Will they rescind my petition bc my mailing address is not in the US, despite providing one on a supplementary page? Will they send it to me in Korea?

2.) Since I've been working in Korea/overseas, I have been able to claim the foreign earned income exclusion. Considering my AGI on my tax returns are at $0 bc of this, we have a cosponsor.

Is there a point of showing my W-2 equivalent forms at my overseas place of employment if this is the case? Does my income really have nothing to show for this whole process? What about my foreign fiancee's job?

3.) Should I move to America before my fiance does his interview? or will it not matter since I have a cosponsor?

There's a lot of conflicting information on this site. I initially just went in and applied for the K-1 visa bc i've read others have done it too, but I've also read that the US petitioner must be domiciled in the states as well. I mean... I do have an unexpired driver's license, but I'm guessing i need to get a job?

I (USC) lived in Canada when we did the K1. I put my Canadian address as my mailing address and they sent everything there. It just took longer to receive them. Not sure what they will do since you put that supplementary page?

Any foreign income from either of you doesn't count. We had a co-sponsor, but I am a stay at home mom, so they did ask what he does for a living and how we were going to support ourselves in the US. My fiance brought his Canadian paystubs and our bank statements, but they didn't ask for it.

You do not have to move in America. If they ask, you can prove "intent to reestablish domicile," which would mean showing them a lease of where you're going to live, job offer, moving plans, plane tickets, driver's license, etc. They asked where we were going to live at my fiance's interview, but did not ask for any actual proof. I say bring it, so you have it. Better to have more than less.

I have a friend who completed the entire K-1 visa application/process while staying in Vietnam. On his I-129F, he gave his Vietnam address for contacts - no problems at all.

Also questions 2 and 3 will depend on your embassy. Check the embassy reviews and your regional forum on here to see if you would have to do anything out of the ordinary... Good luck!
