Community SpotlightDV Lottery of K1 Visa - Can I file for both?
Petrisaint Mpaka posted a topic in K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures,
I applied for the DV lottery 2025 and hope to be selected this year. My fiancé and I discovered that there is a fiancé visa for the USA. Do you think if we apply for the K1 visa but are selected for the DV lottery that we can stop the fiancé visa process? What are the timelines and options here :)?-

Confused about steps after marriage
SP1988 posted a topic in Adjustment of Status (Green Card) from K1 and K3 Family Based Visas,
My fiancee arrived last month on K1 fiance visa and we got married yesterday. It seems from what I have seen online that I made a mistake by not getting SSN prior to marriage? I am going to the SSN office on Monday to gather more information... also worried about employment authorization and travel authorization(s). Thanks for any insights!-

Tourist visa cancelled by CBP agent. Can we still get a CR1 or K1 Visa?
yotajeeper posted a topic in What Visa Do I Need - Family Based Immigration,
Upon my gf's most recent arrival, her tourist visa was cancelled at the airport due to her frequent visits last year and suspicion of working here. She was denied entry and sent back same day. Is a CR1 or K1 visa process an option still? I would appreciate any advice or tips you can provide!-

Accidental Errors Found on Introductory Letter in I-130 Packet Submitted 12:16 am today

2 RepliesGreetings,
I couldn't find any related topics to my question, so hopefully someone can help me.
So, I recently submitted our I-130 application packet to USCIS and we each submitted an introduction letter (per our legal consultant) stating who we are, what we both want, and why from the USCIS VISA process and signed/dated it. Unfortunately, I didn't catch this error until today, but our legal consultant's secretary accidentally sent my husband the incorrect template that had the header stating in error, "In Connection to Our I-129F" instead of "In Connection to Our I-130". My letter, of course, had the correct header but his did not. Also, when I was browsing my USCIS online account today, I noticed that those two documents were scanned and uploaded to the Documents section. I'm not sure what that means when they upload supporting documents that I submitted with the I-130 application packet, but hopefully someone can tell me why.
My main question is, will this pose an issue with the possibility of an RFE to resubmit a corrected one, or will they pardon it... or should I upload a scanned letter attached to an amended version or just wait?
Any help is much appreciated.
Thanks!
Did I mess up my standalone i-130? 11:35 pm yesterday

2 RepliesHi all,
I submitted i-130 application for my wife in June 2023.
I submitted all the supporting evidence separately(each separate pictures, separate pdf for 401k beneficiary, separate pdf of my visit to wife's country. )
I read lot of comments where people uploaded one pdf with all evidence while providing some details of the evidence.
Did I mess up? Can I upload unsolicited evidence now with one pdf combining all evidence?
Thanks
