What to do please?

[KikydeUS 1]

Hello everyone!

I am a US citizen by naturalization and I would like to petition for my fiancee who is currently overseas to join me here with a K-1 visa and my questions are the following: How can I file for K-1 visa since she is pregnant and will be delivering in a few coming months? How can I address it to the USCIS? Is there a special form or I have to include a statement explaining that situation? ( don't wanna wait to file after she delivers because this all process just lasts forever. I think the sooner I start, the better).

Also the form I-129F I see online is saying expires 06/30/2016. Are we still allowed to use it? and the very last question would be about the poverty guideline. Please can anyone help me find that information? who is above poverty guideline according to the USCIS?

Please your advice is needed.

File before 12/23 or pay $195 more for I-129F.

Form can be used until it no longer shows the old edition on USCIS website.

I used this form AFTER 6/30 and it was accepted.

Others can answer your other questions.

Please see the helpful Guides at the top of the page for instructions on how to proceed with a K-1 petition. You'll find the answers to all your questions there.

You are of course welcome to include a statement regarding the pregnancy with your application, but be aware that a pending pregnancy isn't a circumstance that will affect the process one way or another.

Yup the fact you knocked your GF up makes no difference to the USCIS or Embassy.

I know that the pregnancy will not stimulate case in any way. My question is to know if I just have to file for one person; The baby will already be born before the visa is issued. do you see my point now? if I do not address this situation approprietaly right now, what is gonna happen?

Jim thank you for the feedback. I perfectly know that. What I am trying to know is by filing for just my fiancee, what is gonna happen when the baby is born ? will they automatically issue another visa or I will have to apply for again and go thru all this process?

I am asking to know if there is a way to address it ahead of time.

You only need to file one I-129F. Your fiancee will be a K-1 and her child when born will be a K-2.

There will need to be two DS-160 forms filed and fees paid $265 each at the moment but this may go up as well.

The DS-160 is the visa application. Each person infant or otherwise will be required to have a Passport AND Visa.

When you file the I-129F if baby is not yet born then there is no need to list him/her on the petition.

Hope this helps.

If the baby is the ops, he will need to file for crba so the child has a proper us passport. This may take a little while

I think it depends on how long ago he naturalized and if he maintained us residence for 5 years I think for the child to be a usc at birth. either way once the child steps foot on us soil as a lpr it will become a citizen.

just file the i-129f for your fiancee. once the baby is born, he/she can derive citizenship from you, so you just need to apply a US passport for the child. just prepare for a DNA test for the baby, because the Consulate MIGHT require it prior to the application of the US passport.

about the poverty guideline, here is the link https://www.uscis.gov/i-864p.

during my interview, the consulate didn't ask for an affidavit of support, maybe bacause they already did a background check, but be ready just in case.

MOST IMPORTANTLY, MAKE SURE TO SUBMIT ALL THE REQUIRED DOCUMENTS AND FORMS TO AVOID DELAYS.
