US Immigration from Netherlands

Review Topic: K1 Visa

Hallo allemaal, Sorry, ik heb geen tijdlijn, wij zijn al bijna 3 jaar bezig met het K1 visum door allerlei tegenslagen. Nu eindelijk hebben we in September het D-160 formulier kunnen inzenden. Maar de ellende houdt niet op, ik probeer nu op alle mogelijkheden mijn fee te betalen en een afspraak in Frankfurt. Iedere keer dat ik probeer in te loggen of de site geeft een error of gooit mij eruit of loopt vast enz. Ik heb gemaild en online gechat met Frankfurt maar ook die konden niet verder helpen. Ligt dit nou aan mij? Doe ik iets verkeerd? Ik lees overal dat het zo makkelijk gaat maar ik ben nu al weer weken bezig en de deadline komt akelig dichtbij. Ik ben helaas niet meer zo superjong (59) en heb M.E. waardoor concentreren en presteren onder spanning en stress heel moeilijk is. Het mooiste voor mij zou zijn als iemand zei, zo en zo betaal je je visum, zo en zo maak je een afspraak en zo en zo heb je een afspraak bij een arts in je buurt. Sorry voor het lange verhaal en me niet houden aan jullie regels maar ik weet het gewoon niet meer en ben zwaar in de paniek.

Groetjes, Linda.

Hey everybody,

after a joyful wedding we are now preparing our aos packet. As we all know the marvelous decision has been made to require all i-485 forms to have an I-693. Woohoo

Anyhow. I am trying to find a civil surgeon who a) does not try to scam me into a full medical and b) doesn t ask for 300-500 dollars for a bit of paperwork.

My question to everyone is: is this amount of money normal for this bit of paperwork? And: if it isn t, does anybody know a civil surgeon in the Orlando area who doesn t try to get you to do a full medical exam and/or make you pay full price?

don t get me wrong, if this is a normal price I m a-ok with it. I just want to make sure I m not getting conned

Hi hello!

So me and my fiance are filing for a K1 visa and to start with we'd be gathering all the documents required to send along with the I-129F. She's from the Netherlands whereas I am the U.S citizen. I was wondering if a birth certificate alone is enough proof that I am a U.S citizen or am I required to provide my passport aswell alongside my fiance's passport?

As of right now I don't have a passport, that's why we're worried. I requested it about 5 months, it got sent to the wrong address, now they're saying they don't even have my passport application so we're frustrated and worried taken re-requesting a passport would take even longer and post-pone our entire plans/schedule. Any help/answers are appreciated! Thanks.

Hi friends!

When I was researching before entering the US, I saw someone made a beautiful checklist on what to have in the i-485 etc. But now I can't seem to find it. Does anyone have it or anything similair? It was an actual list with checkboxes, I know there's the guide but I preferred the one I looked at haha.

Hi dear friends!!

We went to the SSA office last friday, it was a BREEZE, made an appointment online (10000% recommend doing this, I hear some people call and wait for a long time, I scheduled mine in 5min), she said that it can take upto 4 weeks because they have to check with immigration, but I always read about 2 weeks, is this an updated wait time? Or do they say 4 weeks and it's usually around 2 weeks?

Not that it really matters, because all I can do is wait anyway, but our desired wedding date was Dec 12th, and we seem to need a SSN to get a marriage license, so if it's 4 weeks, it's going to be tight haha.
