US Immigration from United Kingdom

I have 3 biological children living with me but in the list of evidence I was asked to provide proof of child support? What should I provide or should I skip the question?

Hi all,

I am a first time poster but have been reading over threads for the last few months to help me (UK) and my fianc (USA) put together our I-129F (post-marked 30th March 2024).

Now that it's been sent, my mind is rattling forward and I'm starting to have some concerns about how we approached (or will at future points approach) my K1 application.

My most recent visit to the US was 16th - 31st March and while I was there we filled out the I-129F together. My fianc was working Mon - Fri so I helped out by completing my (Beneficiary) sections during my free time. This means that there's a noticeable difference in hand writing when looking at the Petitioner versus Beneficiary sections. We did initially discuss just filling out the form as a PDF file but had some issues with saving our progress on the document. In the end, we decided it was simpler to print them off and handwrite, but now I'm worried. We both had to provide additional information via the blank page at the back, and both signed/dated them so it should be pretty clear that it is my (Beneficiary) handwriting. I can't really find any concrete answers here or elsewhere saying if it's ok to do this or not. Does anyone think that this will pose a problem?

Additionally, in our I-129F, we were only able to include one picture of us together (dated a previous visit in November 2023). Even though we told each other that we should get more pics together, we just aren't the type of people who like to take lots of pics of ourselves and others. I don't think this will pose much of an issue with the I-129F as I've read here that others didn't prioritise pics for evidence. For context, here is a run down of what we included:

1. Two Passport-Sized Photos (Petitioner, Beneficiary)
2. Form G-1145 for E-Notification of Application Acceptance (1 Page)
3. Application Fee of $535 via Cashier s Check
4. Form I-129F, Petition for K-1 Fianc (e) for Beneficiary (14 Pages)
5. Confirmation of Approved ESTA for Beneficiary (5 Pages)
6. Airline Tickets & Flight Itinerary [November 2023] (3 Pages)
7. Airbnb Reservation [November 2023] (1 Page)
8. Boarding Passes to and from the USA for Beneficiary [November 2023] (2 Pages)
9. Picture Together [November 2023] (1 Page)
10. Airline Tickets & Flight Itinerary [March 2024] (2 Pages)
11. Boarding Passes to the USA for Beneficiary [March 2024] (1 Page)
12. Communication Transcripts (10 Pages)
13. Fianc Letter of Intent to Marry within 90 days, executed by Petitioner (1 Page)
14. Fianc e Letter of Intent to Marry within 90 days, executed by Beneficiary (1 Page)
15. Statement of Circumstances of Meeting (2 Pages)
16. Proof of United States Citizenship for Petitioner (2 Pages)
17. Passport Copy for Beneficiary (1 Page)
18. Form I-94, Travel History for Beneficiary (2 Pages)

I am now thinking ahead to my K1 interview and whether or not we should really prioritise pics between now and then. If we should, then the timing of my next visit could be challenging. It would not be possible for me to make another trip any sooner than November 2024 and if my interview is scheduled for before then (wishful thinking?) then this could become an issue. It also is unlikely that my fianc would be able to visit me in the UK between now and then. Does anyone think this will cause difficulties?

It may be quite clear to many of you that with current processing times, there is a very slim chance of me getting an interview date before 2025. This would actually be helpful to us if you do think we should prioritise pics on the next visit.

I am sure that it is probably completely normal to second-guess all of the hard work you have done over months, putting together docs and evidence, as soon as it's sent off and out of your hands. I am just seeking some friendly advice and/or reassurance at this very early stage!

Thank you

Hi Everyone!

My medical appointment is booked for the 23rd April.

In the email confirmation, at the very top it states the following:

Hello everyone,

In 2016 I moved from London (I'm an Italian citizen who lived in the UK) to the US on a K-1 visa and married my now husband in New York. We had our first child in 2018, and in August 2019 we decided to come to Italy for a long stay (6 months) to allow my parents to spend time with our child. A few months later Covid hit and we were unable to move back due to a new pregnancy and loss of job. This means that my green card expired and I wasn't able to renew it.

Now we would like to move back to NYC with our children, however as I am the only one with no citizenship I was wondering what would be the best way forward to reapply to move back. We do not have any assets in the US and our only co-sponsor would be my mother in law, as my husband currently works here and does not own any property back in NYC.

Any info would be much appreciated.

Thanks!

Does the London Embassy conduct IR1 interviews on a daily basis or only on some days? Also, I see that many interviews are undertaken early in the morning; does anyone know if afternoon appointments are also available? Need to reschedule an interview and trying to align with train times. From what I see you first need to cancel the appointment and then select an alternative. Are you then presented with a list of days/times available after you ve cancelled that original appointment? Thank you
