Hello VisaJourney Team,

I recently joined your community and am looking for guidance regarding my fiancé’s K-1 visa process. My USC fiancé has a criminal history dating from 1996 to 2020, but there are no recent or pending cases. I would like advice on:

  1. How to properly prepare the K-1 visa packet considering this history.

  2. How to obtain official records of his past criminal history for submission.

  3. If there are any sample K-1 petition packets or templates shared by members that I could reference to understand how they filed successfully.

Because I'll be the one who will do the documentation on his behalf. And I am fully aware of the other documents needed, I just need to know when regard to his Criminal History to avoid RFE. I'm kind of skeptical, tho I have started to gather all our information to compile some of our requirements needed. 

Any guidance or resources you can provide on these topics would be greatly appreciated. 

 

I want to share his Criminal History here, but I doubt if it's a good idea. coz I know there were some really serious cases. What do you think?

 

Thank you very much for your time and help!

Read the form instructions carefully.  They will specify what your fiance needs.

Hi, thanks for your response. Yeah, I did carefully read all the instructions in the form I-129F. That means he needs to get ALL those almost 30 cases' certified records? 

 

Thanks🙏

I guess so.
