Hello everyone! First Post here. I am currently overseas with my fiancée and have been here for two years now. Any evidence covering the validation of our relationship really is not of concern. I do have a few questions and concerns about our case. I will state right away we have a cosponsor for our case due to the circumstances. So I guess I will list some of the concerns.

 

Please no need for harsh criticism, I just need advice! 

 

1. I have been in Poland for 2 years now, I was granted entry back into Poland a year ago. I don’t know what to call this but, technically I am here longer than I should be. We have been working on getting married here but it’s a little more complicated than we’d expected. My concern is, will the United States government try to get me “returned” back to the states if we file this? It may seem like a crazy concern but I good at worrying. 

 

2. I was working for a moving company that paid me in cash as a helper for a few months. Other than that I was working on my art career just trying to get better and make a name for myself. So, for the employment history for the past 5 years... do I leave it all blank? Or do I state I was working for said company. I don’t have any time sheets or anything like that of how much I was working. Just thinking whether this is being honest or stupid. Sorry if this doesn’t make sense. This is why we have a co sponsor.

 

3. Are Police clearances required in the petition? Or is that for the interview? My fiancée lived in the UK for 9 years and turned 16 the year she returned to Poland. Is she required to obtain the certificate from the UK as well? 

 

4. Affidavits of Support. I134 I believe. I was told I as well as the co sponsor must fill this out, are the both of ours required to be in the petition itself? Or brought to the embassy? 

 

5. We have very minuscule evidence of our relationship prior to me coming here. Some Skype messages she printed out and kept, some videos she took a screenshot of. Not a bunch of logs or anything like that because we didn’t think of keeping them at the time. Hell, we knew nothing of this process. Just being honest here guys. We were trying to get married here but I couldn’t get my single status document from my county without being present. Does this matter if we have evidence from the day I got here until right now? 

 

6. Does the cost of the engagement ring matter? It was like $500. It may not seem like a lot but I will get her a better one in the states. Don’t tell her  

 

7. We don’t have any pictures from when I proposed to her on Christmas. It was a surprise to everyone. They all knew I was doing it, but I didn’t say when. That was my fault. Would this be a problem? We have the letter I wrote that day for her. 

 

I am so sorry for this super long post, I’m new and really seeking proper advice. I was looking into some “coaches” or “experts” but they all gave me the run around. Thank you all in advance guys! Have a great day!

I'd be more worried if you'll be able to get married at all while being "illegal" in Poland. Doubtful.  Also if you plan on getting married in Poland then you need to file cr1 spouse visa. Not fiance visa. K1 visa is for people who want to get married in US.

Yes you write down all your employment. Hope you filed your US taxes, as requred, because those are necessary for visa petition.

Rules are pretty clear. She need a police clearance from any country she has been in longer than 6 months.

Embassy.

Again. You need cr1 visa if you're getting married in Poland.

I'd be worried how your illegal stay and work in Poland will reflect on your background check though to be honest.

Thanks for the quick response. But I don’t work in Poland. Nor are we trying to get married here. She is my fiancée, we are filing for the K1. I was stating we were trying and ran in to some obstacles along the way. About the police clearances, embassy or petition?
