US Immigration from Indonesia

Hi All,

I'm preparing the I-130 package, please help me (beneficiary) with these questions below:

1. Part 4 about the beneficiary, item number 46. Asking If the beneficiary is currently in the United States. I'm currently in the U.S with a K1 visa, getting married, and planning to get back to my home country for work. Should I mention it in this question although I'll be leaving soon before we submit this?

2. Part 4 about the beneficiary, item number 59. provide an address at which you physically lived together. I write "Never lived together" although practically I'm staying here for 1.5 months and I also have changed my address on driver's license. so does it count as lived together?

3. For evidence of bonafide marriage, we prepare:

a. Wedding Related Documentations: Marriage Certificate, Photo at the Wedding shower and wedding, Airbnb receipt for the wedding night, the receipt for wedding ring purchase, and Congratulations card from friends.

b. Honeymoon Documentations: Photo, boarding passes, some receipts from our spending, the ticket to show, bank statement showing our spending during honeymoon

c. Proof of Joint Ownership: the act of donation entitling beneficiary own 50% ownership, both our names on utility bills, copy of our driver's licenses showing same address

d. Proof of Joint Responsibility for Financial Assets, Liability & Welfare: establishment statement of joint bank account, authorized CC on Petitioner's account, power of attorney for Petitioner only, receipt petitioner pay for beneficiary insurance

e. Affidavits From Family and Friend(s): Notarized

f. Proof of Shared-Activities & Relationship: Other photos & Travel document from our k1 timeline until now. like boarding passes, pictures, visa stamps, our bank statement showing our spending at the same place, chat, and phone log.

g. Synopsis of Marriage in the U.S and Living Apart Explanation

are we missing something? will it become a red flag if we only send power of attorney only for petitioners? or should we take this out?

4. Most of the time, the petitioner is paying for our expenses like during wedding, honeymoon, and travel. should we concern about this?

I appreciate your help.

Thank you

We submitted I485, I765 and I 131 to the Chicago address, in less than two weeks we received three I 797 , one for each form we submitted with the receipt number starting with IOE, and no where on the Notice of Action does it say where is the processing center. The IOE means is the Electronic Immigration System - ELIS - but how does one determines where is your case being handled, whe you do the search ELIS is not one of the choices to pick to see the timeline. Thanks

Now that the CDC said that the Covid vaccine is required when doing your medical exam, not sure who that will apply for a AOS application from a K1 visa as there is no medical as you submit your vaccine records that you brought from the Medical Exam in the country you had the interview at. It will be interesting how they will handle. My spouse was vaccinated on the 4 day from arrival so that is not an issue, just how we provide the proof.

Hello! We need to change the embassy that our packet is going to. My fianc is working in Qatar but is leaving the country in a couple weeks to go back to Indonesia even though we put Jakarta as the embassy on our I-129, they have it marked to go to Doha.

does anyone know how to get this changed BEFORE it leaves for doha?

Hello all,

this is what is says on the NVC page. Is that mean we are document qualified and wait for the embassy to schedule interview?
