I am having the most difficult time serving my ex fiancé in Valinhos, Sao Paulo, Brazil. I have tried contacting a lawyer there to serve him but I come up with nothing!!!

bump

scammed by a narcissistic sociopath from Brazil.

I filed for the K1 and welfare didn't cause any issues for us, he was approved. I had a co-sponsor though.

We set our wedding date... got the visa... and he left for Europe! Three weeks later he wrote me and said to withdraw his visa application (can't really do that, he already has visa in hand) and he does not love me and does not want to marry me. I've started the custody process and child support process. There was another woman in Europe. Now I have all this wedding garbage (decorations and whatnot... including one hell of a ring and dress that I'm holding on to for a little while). I really hope everyone elses stories end better than mine did. Now I'm looking into how to verify my son's birth with Brazil so when he is older I can get him dual citizenship if thats what he wants to do.

I've been receiving government aid for a few years and my (ex) fianc'e was approved his visa with a co-sponsor.

I have already emailed them and they said I needed to get him to send in his passport so they can remove it... not likely that he will send it in though.

My fiance left me 6 and a half weeks before our wedding. He is still in possession of his K-1 visa and hasn't traveled on it yet. I'm filing for custody of our son and I'm just wondering how child support works internationally.

He has a very good job at IBM Brazil and my son does not have dual citizenship and does not have a passport. I'd rather not get my son these things until he is much older (right now he's only 1 and a half!)

The paperwork I had started for custody also says he is held to US laws regarding this because he conceived a child in the US and signed the declaration of paternity.

How does child support work internationally? (US/BRAZIL)

Interview today!

Interview date is set and we're trying to change it because they set it for a date that the embassy is closed ¬¬ fail.

but we're working on the medical exam appointment (waiting for a call back)

got our official letter

got our RDJ#

and now we've got another bit of a wait.

Yes! I was just going to tell you to call DOS! I tried calling the NVC as well, and they never picked up, the people at DOS are so nice and very helpful.

That's awesome that your case was finally moved to Rio

Best of luck!

I'm shocked. I expected to need a packet 3 and 4 but I don't and its all set and ready to move along and I'm in shock.

really congratulations!

do you know their timings?

nope, its a really quick call though, no wait for me. took a total of 5 minutes to get the info i needed. Call!!!

Holy carp! Our case is already in Rio and we already have an interview date and they didnt notify us at all after USCIS sent out our NOA2! I had to call DOS and they told me all of this just now!

Holy #######! I just called DOS and they said my case is already in Rio de Janiero and they already have an interview date set. CALL DOS AND TALK TO A REP AND ASK ABOUT YOUR CASE! They may already have your interview dates set!!! CALL CALL CALL!!!

no news. 8/26 approval. called uscis and they said they sent me to nvc on 9/28... cant get ahold of anyone at nvc!

uscis said i was sent to nvc on 9/28... nvc doesnt answer the phone. im so frustrated >.<

Capaldi was already in Doctor Who

and in Torchwood

just venting a little bit...

Feeling a little overwhelmed right now. I was happy with my baby not crawling all over the place. I was ok before he turned 1. I'm getting to not be ok with things going so fast... The standing, the crawling, the birthday party, the holidays speeding up to us... I'm not ok with any of this now because I should not be the only one watching it happen... I do not want to do any of this or let any of this happen without his dad here to take part in all of these things... I'm trying hard to put on a strong show for people like I'm excited or happy about things but I'm miserable doing these things without him, I hate that he has to miss it, I hate that immigration is taking so damn long, I hate that they make it so hard for people trying to come here legally but will give handouts to those here illegally. I'm drained and I'm stressed and I'm so worried that he won't be able to be here for Christmas and I'm just so frustrated right now with the "when is he coming back" question I get from everyone... and having to answer "i dont know" and feeling that pit in my stomach and the urge to cry and kick and scream and turn into a 2 year old throwing a tantrum just because of a ###### question. I need this to stop happening, I need life to pause. I don't need him to miss his son's first steps...

HURRY UP, STUPID PROCESS!!! YOU'RE KILLING US!

Still waiting to be sent to NVC... Today is our son's first birthday. I received my dress about 2 weeks ago, fits PERFECT and its gorgeous! Calling USCIS on Monday to ask why we haven't been sent over to NVC yet. Why the hell are they holding on to our file for 8 weeks?! WE ARE GETTING ANXIOUS AND ANGRY!

Ordered my wedding dress It should be here tomorrow. I'm excited! (Still waiting to hear from NVC)

Just wondering if anyone elses NOA2 said they've been sent to the US Embassy and to contact the consulate about further questions regarding our case... nothing about NVC or DOS...

how long does it take for CSC to make a decision once they receive my response to the RFE? they received mine yesterday so im excited to hear back from them

Took us about a week tops...

approved approved approved approved approved approved approved approved approved!!!!!!!

already updated my timeline

Received the NOA1 on April 25th, a week after we filed, and I've yet to hear anything. Our status says that my "alien fiancee's number has been changed" or something to that extent. I called and asked about it and they said it was a computer error and he's sent a request of inquiry, or something... I'm confused and also upset, it feels like something went wrong. Anyone else have to deal with this? Given, it's within the five month window on the USCIS site, but seeing people here getting theirs in 58 days doesn't make me too confident or happy. We are at the California service center.

a request for evidence, there was something missing in your petition or something they need before issuing your approval... you'll get all the info in the mail... dont stress too much, mine was as simple as putting "none" in a box i left blank.

should I send my tax info with my fiancé or does NVC request it?

My fiancé goes back to Brazil on Friday to wait out the rest of the K-1 process and I'm just making sure he is leaving with all of the papers he needs to have in his possession at the interview... Do I need to send the joint sponsor's tax forms and pay stubs with him or will those be requested by NVC? I don't want to send them with him if he doesn't need them, I'd rather keep them and send them to NVC myself if thats what they'll be asking for...

Do I send them with him or will they be requested by NVC?

What other documents will he need to have for the interview?
