US Immigration from Peru

Hey all! I'm still working on assembling all the documentation to submit my K-1 visa packet. I'm at the point of compiling photos of us together with their descriptions.

The directions listed on visa journey are to lable the photos and place in a clear bag and attach to a paper. However, I feel that I have read forum discussions that say not to this. That tape, paperclips, and stables are a nuisance from the processors end and not advised.

I think I saw recommendations of assembling photos with descriptions and then making a quality color photo copy of this one page. Is this what most people are doing? Or what did you guys with successfully accepted applications do for your photo documentation of meeting and proving relationship?

Hi All!

Ok, so my wife received her IR-1 visa several years ago and we entered the US (Resident Since) 08/28/2022. We left the US on 09/12/2022 to go back to Peru to deal with ending our lease, packing/selling our stuff, etc. We returned to the US on 12/16/2022, and aside from a two short trips back to Peru (4 days, 9 days) since then, we have been residing in the US. Her eligible date to submit the N-400 (90 days previous) is 05/30/2025. My question is should we wait extra time or just apply in June?

Any recommendations?

Hi all! I'm trying to gather all my data and complete my K-1 packet to request my fiance to come over from Peru. I have a question regarding the Fiance letter of Intent. I see the example that visa journey has of this letter and was using that as a guide. My question is in the section that says United States department of homeland security US citizenship and immigration services, what address is supposed to be listed under that? Is it the lock box address where I mail this entire application packet to? Or is there a different address that I'm just not understanding. Also, is my fiance's letter of intent that he sends to me to be included in the original application request going to have the same address and Dept of homeland security/Immigration services info? Or does his need his consult in his country? We may be totally over thinking this but any direction would be appreciated. Thank you!

Ok, so I came across some discussions here today regarding the I-865 (sponsor change of address) and I realized I never did one, actually I never realized I had to....and it's been a long, long time. We did do the online change of address submission for my spouse (the beneficiary) and I made the mistake of assuming that the government would just magically link us together that I was included in that deal (yeah, yeah...I know).

So now, we are getting close to 2 and 1/2 years in and I'm not certain what I should do at this point. Any recommendations?

Hello! I know I need a letter from my employer (I work for the government) stating various things. I asked HR and they stated that an sf50 should be sufficient. Is this true? It shows the nature of employment and my annual salary. Do I need an actual letter or is this fine? Furthermore, our i129F was approved in September. Will the validity be extended for a year?

My fiancee is currently working on getting the 3 civil documents required for the Peruvian embassy. What else is needed? Birth certificate, passport, civil documents, approved i129F... anything else? A checklist of things required for the actual interview would be helpful. Thank you so much.
