Rapid Visa

[Joec214 0]

Has anyone used Rapid visa? My Fiancé and I, we are going to get married next month in August and I’ve been researching the process for AOS and I feel like it’s very time consuming and could use more help and also they offer payment plans for your UICIS fees. Is the service worth it? Were they transparent during the process? Did they get your green card approved? I don’t want to spend money on an outside company and they aren’t helpful.

Multiple posters have used RV.  Use the search function on this site.   That company is a partner to Visa Journey.  I have seen mixed reviews.  Be aware that you will still be required to do all the leg work of gathering documents, evidence, etc.   Good luck....

you want to pay them for mailing your package? 

expensive postage 

You still do all the work yourself

they can not make it faster

All they do is to fill in your information, check and mail your package. If you need real help, find an immigration legal office.

Using RV won't guarantee that your GC will be approved. What's guaranteed is:

 

1. You'll do all the leg work in terms of providing information to them (which if your case is simple as A B C, you may as well use the DIY guides at the top right of the page and save $$ paid to RV, albeit even in installments)

 

2. Depending on how busy they are or how many back and forths that'll arise between you and them, your case will be delayed by you just sending it to them (you may as well just cut off this lapse time and send the information to USCIS yourself because you've already DIY-ed 1 above)

 

3. You will pay them. I don't like typing anything in a computer but it took me 4 hours max to fill all those forms on Adobe. So if you're like my wife, you can crack it in half the time. Some of us prefer old-school pen to paper. One of you can type, the other can take charge of collecting the documents.  Then you switch and crosscheck each other's work..🤷🏾‍♂️ Btw, the instructions are also free online. So it'll tell you what to submit with the documents 

 

4. They will send your application to USCIS. 

 

5. That's all.

Yes. They will do all these things and they do, sometimes, make mistakes. So, in addition, to all the things you'll have to do yourself anyway, you will have to do your own research to be sure your application has been completed correctly.

We used RapidVisa for the K-1. Based on that experience, we decided not to use them for AOS. I agree with all the responses above me that tell you that you will still have to do all of the leg work. They don't provide a lot of bang for your buck. They will actually slow down your timeline, because they will act as a middle-man and take time to review your package before they mail it. I found VJ to be infinitely more helpful throughout our entire process. Whether you decide to use RV or not, you should still spend some time reading the VJ guides and asking specific questions here, also. Good luck!

Don't waste your money..a lot of people messed up there application..dealing with them..I say trust your own judgement..also it's not rapid either..everyone has to go through the same process🤷🏿‍♀️

I used Rapid Visa for my K1 Visa and AOS. I think instead of paying for a lawyer if you don't have immigration issues, Rapid visa worth it because they make sure you have all your papers before sending your packages and you can call them for questions.

You still have to provide all of the documents and thoroughly check and sign everything.  Most of us at VJ have done our entire processes ourselves.

Sadly we have come across some real Horror stories, best to do it yourself or employ a Lawyer.

We used them for i130 submittion and dumped them before NVC.. save your money do it yourself your basically paying them to tell you the forms instructions, which you could read yourself anyway.. you still do all the work.. wish I’d of found this site sooner..

My friend paid them $500 and they got an RFE for their I-130. If you can spend a few hours reading through the guides here, you can do it yourself. I did it myself and did not receive an RFE.

Did my AOS all by myself. Did it over a few months honestly. I started on it before my wife arrived here in her K1 visa even. There is now the I944 as an extra form, but just do a form a day. Doing it in one shot will drain you, spend a week putting it together and you still will get it done faster than RV. Here is a photo of my AOS ready to go. It can be done. I honestly just disassembled my spare copy of our K1 package, as almost everything I needed was in there, and then assembled the AOS.
