US Immigration from Canada

Hello! I'm getting ready for my interview in Montreal next week and have noticed that the consulate email checklist requires both beneficiary AND petitioner's birth certificates.

This is different to the packet 3 instructions I received.

Would a copy of my fiance's birth certificate suffice? Curious to know what other montrealers have done?

Thank you!

I'm Canadian, and for three years my American fianc e has lived in Buffalo and drives across the border to visit me every week. I received my NOA1 back in September and would like to make sure I have enough evidence proving the genuineness of our relationship once we get interviewed later this year.

The problem is, we don't have the usual sorts of evidence that most K1 applicants have. Here are some common examples of evidence that other K1 applicants use, and why I don't have them:

1. Visa stamps. Canada does not stamp American passports when they cross.
2. Phone call logs. We don't call each other (what year is it anyway?).
3. Mail deliveries. We don't mail each other stuff. She visits so often anyway that we just give each other stuff in person.
4. Flight bookings, boarding passes, etc. She drives.
5. Hotel bookings. She stays at my residence when she visits.
6. Pictures. We don't really go out and do anything. What would be the occasion for which we would take a picture? I suppose we could just take selfies in my home, but that's... odd.
7. Credit card or bank statements of our purchases at the same time and place. Again, we don't really go out and do anything. Besides, I usually just pay for anything (e.g., pizza delivery). If we suddenly started paying for things together now after three years, wouldn't that be suspicious?
8. Engagement ring purchase. I never got one (I was intending to just get a wedding ring when the time comes; engagement rings never made sense to me.) We sent our I-129F (along with a letter of intent to marry, of course) back in August. It's now February. I suppose we could buy rings now, but wouldn't that look even more suspicious than not having rings at all? ("It says here you bought rings in February, but your letter of intent to marry was from August. Why would you buy engagement rings so many months after your stated intention to marry?")
9. Chat logs. We do indeed have 91,000 messages sent between us on Discord. But does that matter? Anyone can manufacture chat logs, and she doesn't use her real name on the application we use (Discord).
10. Names on lease. This one has never made sense to me. The whole point of immigrating is so that we can live together. Obviously we don't currently live together; we're in different countries!

I'm fine with doing some new things to get some of this evidence, but it seems so... obvious... that I would just be doing it for the sake of the K1 instead of organically. Like, there's little evidence of these things for years, and then all the sudden a few months before the interview we start doing all this stuff together? I don't know... Am I wrong to be concerned about that? And is there any sort of evidence I haven't mentioned above that might be compelling?

Thanks!

Hi, everyone. I am looking to get a k-1 visa to go to the us and marry my girlfriend. Currently, she is not working due to a medical issue, but her Father indicated that he would be able to co sponsor for me. Her step mother also is working, and stated she would help with it too.

Their combined income would most certainly meet the HHS poverty guidelines.

What forms would I submit to show that I would be supported financially during my process in the US?

Hello, everyone. I'm looking up information on the k-1 visa process, as my girlfriend and I want to live together and marry in the United States. (I am Canadian). I like to prepare in advance, but I am concerned about something related to the medical examination that is part of it.

I was struggling with an eating disorder for a few years prior to this. I have recovered, and I have been doing great for over a year now, but I am concerned that I would be deemed inadmissable. I spent time getting treatment in our psychiatric ward, as there was not any eating disorder ward that specifically treated us on our own. I had a few admissions. I had previous issues receiving and maintaining employment prior to this, but I have held a job pretty well so far for close to a year, and I have been eating perfectly for the past year and a half. Things are going great, and I don't feel any need to worry about my condition. Would my eating disorder pose any significant issues in the k1 visa process if it is no longer with me anymore?

Hi my fianc and i just received our packet 4 today with a very near appointment date (feb 14th 2022) and im a little confused in the information packet they sent us.

IMPORTANT: ***please bring this letter and the appointment confirmation sheet you will receive from http://canada.usvisa-info.com/to the panel physician medical appointment. ***

Now i had just registered to the website and paid the MRV fee and have set my delivery to my home address. Now is the "appointment confirmation sheet" what they sent me when i paid the MRV via email? or does that "appointment confirmation sheet" come in the mail?
