    in K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports

    Posted

    Really? Who's house exactly? ALL OF THEM? ... and everyone that is applying for a K-1 from there is homeless at the moment? I find that hard to believe. You know this HOW exactly? The oh so trustworthy American media?

    My fiance has cancer that can only be treated here because of the Socialist deathcare system in her country, and her very LIFE may depend on mere weeks. People are individuals ... NOT cogs in an abstract collective without names. .... but nooooo ... somebody's material possessions MIGHT have gotten wet ... that's WAY more important says our brilliant masters in Congress. ... and I'm callous for being annoyed by the ruling class that not only violently coerces us for crossing imaginary lines on the ground but grants permission to do so in an arbitrary manner?

    Again ... lucky you guys in the favored class ... and if your homes and possessions really HAVE been destroyed, and/or you know one of the 6,000 people that died, and by sheer coincidence you were ALSO waiting to immigrate via K-1 when that happened ... than you have my best wishes. I hope the best for you and you will get TRUE sympathy from me regarding your specific suffering. I will never pretend to know your pain until it is explained to me.

    What annoys me more than the expected favoritism of the State is the belief that the proposed benevolent acts of the State result in a net benefit for all. ... but no ... we are all just selfish greedy slaves that deserve to be shot or thrown in a cage for not obeying our masters right?

    There were 4.1M people displaced by the typhoon and almost 100M people in the Philippines. That's terrible ... yes, but it must be nice to have your level of clairvoyance to know that that 4% of the population is represented by 80% of the K-1 filer's from the Philippines at the moment. ... and what wonderful people their American fiances must be for specifically targeting ONLY that 4% of the Philipinne population as potential life partners! ... and I'm callous?????? ohmy.png

    sorry ... <END FLAME> ... challenge me on principles and my fangs come out.

    First of all, I know how you feel, it might be unfair for some people to get their NOA 2 faster than average but it does not only happen to the beneficiaries from the Philippines. I am not part of the typhoon stricken area, therefore not auto expedited and I felt bitter seeing my fellow Filipinos get their approvals in weeks. Compared to them I waited for almost a month and a half (not that long, I know) but beneficiaries from other countries, not only from the Philippines, some even filled later than me have been getting approvals in January.

    Second, the typhoon really devastated some regions and up to now, some of them are still living on the streets. I hope you don't take the disaster lightly.

    and third, stop overthinking and finding out all the possible reasons as to why you have not received your NOA2 yet. We know how USCIS works, so don't even be surprised. Each case is different, some take only a couple of months, some take up to a year to get the visa in hand. We all know that when we filled for the I129F, and it is not right to make passive aggressive comments over a specific country just because their cases are being processed faster than yours.

    Instead of over analyzing over when you'll get your NOA2 and how many people have gotten theirs way before yours, I guess just use the time to gather all the important documents because once you receive your long awaited NOA2, everything will go by fast.

    I hope you get to visit the typhoon affected areas and see for yourself how it is like there.

    And yes, you can ask for your case to be expedited because of medical reasons, i hope you know that.

    I would love to know where the law is that gives Philippines special immigration processing. I know that the Visa Bulletin has special columns for India, Mexico, and Philippines, they CLAIM because of immigration caps ... but that really doesn't explain why we see so many K-1(s) here on VJ from the Philippines getting fast-tracked.

    6/8 of the NOA2(s) this month out of TSC have been from the Philippines ... with an average wait time for those 6 of just 27.5 days ... its hard to believe that special treatment doesn't exist while the rest of us have to wait 4 to 5 months. I'm not complaining about the special treatment. We all know involuntary governance is NEVER equal in their treatment of the law. This is GREAT if you are from the Philippines ... I'm not knocking you ... I'm envious. But seriously though ... there MUST be a law regarding this somewhere.

    The Philippines had a typhoon not a tsunami. It is said to be the strongest typhoon in world history. Eitherway, not everyone gets auto expedited. only those who are in the typhoon stricken areas.

    So my Fiance resides at the same house as mother who will be the co-sponsor (just incase). However, he was not declared in his mom's tax and has his own income, therefore he's independent. Should we include him in the household size count?

    No company letterhead?

    It should be fine, plus like said you will have pay stubs which also show the company name, I really don't see an issue. Just the same the embassy may have issues with your most recent tax return not showing adequate income, it might not be a bad idea to write a letter to explain that you were still in college and such as to why the low income. And for sure have the co-sponsor documents.

    We will provide letters for the following :

    1. Reason.as to why he didn't earn enough for the past year (proof of being a student, of being with me for 3 months.etc)

    2. Letter that we will be living rent-free with the signature of the apartment owner(his grandpa)

    3. Letter of my educational background showing I have a high chance of employment in the us (plus transcripts and diploma)

    Anyone on the planet could type up a letter on blank paper. Of course anyone on the planet could also make up a bogus letterhead in 5 or 10 minutes on line and create a letter on that. Perhapos your spouses employer could just make up a letterhead. It's really easy. Ay least it shows some form of professionalism, I hope. They don't need a logo. Just go on line there are tons of free backgrounds for all kinds of purposes.

    Thanks for the suggestion. Ofcourse we will substantiate the employment letter with his paystubs to show that it's legit. :))

    So as i've posted before, my fiance just started a new job in which he makes more than the poverty guideline (He was a student before(2012)and stayed with me for 3 months (2013) so he did not make enough on his w2 and tax returns for the last year and 2012). His boss signed the employment letter stating his average income (with overtime, he works 50 hours a week) and that he will be getting raises within the next months, however, the company does not have a letter head or a logo , is this fine? Will it still be accepted by the consulate?

    Hi,

    I just want to make sure about the case number thing. We have to call the NVC or we shall wait them to send us letter or contact us by email??

    I noticed that lots of people call the NVC to obtain the case number. Shouldn't be sent to us by formal letter by mail? or by email? or they never going to send it to us??? Would you please explain to me little bit about this part.

    Thanks a lot

    Congratulations and good luck with your journey :)

    You have to call NVC for your case number so you can track if your petition is already sent to the consulate. Upon receiving your case number, you can check your status at ceac website.

    My wife rescheduled her interview appointment about 3 times before getting March 13. I suggest refreshing the page any chance you get to get a better date!

    But you can only reschedule twice without paying the interview fee again and being banned for 90 days, right?

    Doing your medical on a Friday means you will have to come back again on Monday, if you passed your medical, to get your vaccinations.

    Some do manage to complete the whole medical in one day along with getting the vaccinations, this is the exception but it happened with my wife.

    I will do my medical on friday because I have University exams the other days . I really pray I'll be able to finish everything in a day
