Hi,

We've just had a RFE on how we met, after we submit the required evidence and recieved the N0A 2 can somebody tell me what is next?

Thank you slim! We weren't aware we were suppost to send evidence on applying in the first place so we got a RFE! So we're doing our best to scrap everything together.

Totally true about concerts! We have one picture of us at a Eddie Money showing in Stockton California. Although our faces aren't in it but the back of our chairs and heads! But there's a security gaurd in it so LOL Plus some pictures of us at the county fair, professional portrait, cruise picture which was part of the package we payed for which we didn't know we'd be having our picture taking! Plus we have some with my parents at the hotel so that'll go along with the hotel receipts we've gathered.

Wish us luck. VJ is very helpful!

Hi,

My fiance and I are in the "gather evidence that we met" stage. My fiance labelled the photographs of us as a couple last night to put in our bundle of proof. He put the names of the people in the photos, location and attempted the dates. We know they were all taken in June and July 05 but we cannot remember specific dates for 2 of these photos. Would you think it's ok just to put June/July 05?

Can somebody point me towards the list of things required to take to the interview and medical so I know as the process gets nearer what to copy and what not? Thanks.

Hi,

I'm noticing as I'm reading through the posts people have to collect everything they already sent during the process and take them with you to the interview. I have a few copies of some things but not of others like the I-129F for example. I have a copy of the form but not our answers. What can we do when the interview comes up and we don't have copies of the things we've sent to them leading upto the interview?

This thread caught my eye. My fiance & I have sent in our petition, got a NOA1 and then a RFE that we met. We're just gathering all the evidence to send back to them by March 4th (the deadline they gave us). I believe there will be a request for a police certificate later on. Would it be for me (the BC) or for my fiance? If I sent away for it now would the embassy accept it if they see it was asked for months before the embassy requested it?

Hello,

I realise there is a medical later on in the k-1 process. I am incredibly worried about the fact I have two medical conditions. A muscle wasting disorder which makes me wheelchair dependant (genetic not infectious what so ever) and I am chronically asthmatic. The muscle wasting disorder is progressive (worsens with time). I have already contacted california social services and I have a number to call if my visa is approved to recieve emergency disability benefits for 2 years till I have to change status and then I can apply for the full amount.

Has anybody gone to this medical with a medical condition and been turned away because of it? I have done ALOT of reading online and can find no mention of any k-1 visa stories with people with medical conditions. I realise you have to have a chest x-ray. Will asthma show on this? I realise they are looking for signs of TB but I was just wondering. Also I realise their is a blood test involved, I take steriod inhalers so this would be found in my blood yes?

We keep trying to be positive, surely they cannot turn us away because I have a medical condition. Thats disability discrimination. But on the other hand they can argue back I'll be a burden to the system.

Anybody at all got any information?

As you have actually met physically within the past 2 years then it should be fine. Alot applying for the k-1 meet online you see. If you actually know her by meeting in the flesh (within 2 years) it's all good.

He still has the burden of proving the fact they they did meet regardless of the time spent in the USA by his fiancee.

Aussie... Whom are you disagreeing with? We are once again saying the same thing.

Yes I realise this, I was responding to his confusion on visiting fiancee and actually met in RL to establish a LDR. Of course he still has to prove they have met physically. I was just saying he doesn't have to go to her country if indeed when they met when she worked in the US it was within the past 2 years. Otherwise if it was earlier than that I should think he would have to go visit her in her country. Either way however they met, the fact they met period needs to be proved.

visit my fiancee? i never fly to Japan to visit her, since she worked here for 18 months till January 06. i thought the requirement is er ahve met each other.

i mean my fiancee work in the USAfor 18 months, is tht good enough to prove that we have met each other within 2 years. Unfortunately i do not save the boarding pass......

i guess i probably should visit japan at least once

As you have actually met physically within the past 2 years then it should be fine. Alot applying for the k-1 meet online you see. If you actually know her by meeting in the flesh (within 2 years) it's all good.

Assuming you have visited your partner within 2 years (required to apply for this visa) it is helpful to include airline stubs, tickets (if you kept), payment receipts from the flight, lots of photos of you two together (they like those) and another helpful thing is a receipt for any engagement rings bought.

Thank you for the clarification.

We did send letters of intent as did my parents as I am not yet 18.

What we origionally put was a brief answer to the how we met question on the 129-F which was "met online through AOL member search engine. Andrew was looking for somebody in similar circumstances - a wheelchair user." Feel pretty stupid now if we were suppost to write a letter then and thats why they're asking now. 'sigh

I'm from San Diego, my fiance lives in the UK. We are preparing our paperwok for an I-129 Fiance VISA. We have a question about the Fiance Letter of Intent, that we downlaoded from the site. The letter asks for the name of country where the Embassy is located.

Do we write United Kingdom on both letters of intent?

Thanks.

I'd say so. We did and haven't been questioned.

Sounds like you received an RFE? Submit what they require...usually its just one or two things they need to finish processing your petitio. I would imagine once you send in what they require, you will get a respone soon. Best of luck!

An RFE? Is that bad? We figured everybody was asked for this evidance, no? That's worrying. We're unsure what a RFE stands for. When we get all the information in will everything be ok you think?

They asked for:

A letter explaining how we met

2 frontal face passport size photos of each of us

Plane stubs etc and any documents that can be used as evidence we have met within 2 years

Photographs of us together

So far we have:

A letter explaining how we met.

2 frontal face passport size photos of myself

Plane stubs of myself (BC) and my parents who travelled with me last June to meet Andrew

4 sets of documents explaining I was granted a "wish" to go to Andrew for a 2 week visit in Cali. We waited 2 years for the wish to be granted (the wish charity is for people with life threatening illnesses nothing to do with being denied entry to the states or anything). We contacted every company involved in helping me travel due to physical impairment and each added up together to be 4 packages of documents explaining what they had on record, details and how they were involved in helping me travel.

Photographs of us as a couple.

A covering letter explaining whats included in the envelope.

Andrew is still trying to get his own frontal face photographs done.

Looking at what we have, we think its more than enough but some of you guys are further along than us, what do you think?

Once Andrew gets his photos done it'll be sent off.

Hi Everybody,

We're very new. Lingered a bit before the forum crashed and now are registered after seeing the great info members are providing. It's also very handy to know there are others our there in LDR overseas - apart and waiting......waiting....and waiting still. It is a very hard emotional struggle.

We are at the stage where the embassy has requested evidance that we have met within two years. We've gathered almost everything and have a deadline for March 4th 06 to get it all in. We would like to know after this evidance stage what is next normally? After of course this lot is sent and we get a reply would like to look up the next step (set of forms maybe) and types of things we need to pull together so we're ready and can get right on with it when we get a reply. Can anybody help?

When first applying the petitioner needs to include his/her birth certificate. I never included mine and have had no requests for it so far. I can imagine though if the BC is adopted, had name change or moved around alot they may need it early on.

Good luck!

All the best! Good luck!
