I called USCIS they said there is nothing I can do on their end as I was approved. We were approved and have 90 days to set up the interview and medical etc... at the consulate here in the dominican republic , that expires on the 29th of December . I want to know what if anything I ca ndo so I dont hurt my chances if we get married then apply for a spousal visa

I mvery frustrated spending hours trying to get a solid answer

I hope someone can help me

thanks,

I know its me im not that savy

We are not able to fulfill the process at this time due to finances. IS there a way to cancel formally so tha twhen we are ready to re-apply we don't have a problem.
Will this create a problem for us next time?

thank you

Is there a hot line of some sort for questions . Or a consulate number or anything like that

My big question is this..

We live in the Dominican Republic. We want to go to the States and get married , meet my Mom ,etc. then come back.

I have been approved and need to set up the meeting.

If we go and get married and stay a couple weeks then we leave to come back, without staying and applyign for a green card, am I violating the visa?

Will we have a problem when we want to come back.

I was thinking we could come back and when ready apply for the spousal visa.

Will I be creating a problem for us?

im very confused and having a tough time getting good info

thank you everyone

Thank you for the information my friends. So I may be wrong then about the stay. Presently we live in the Dominincan Reppublic. Someone told me if we went tot he States and got married she wouldnt be able to leave for a year so maybe Im wrong about that which is great.

SO we can go get married and come back to the D.R. ?

Hi

We were approved for the first part of our fiancee visa. I didnt realize we had to go to the States and stay there for a year,. We are not ready to move there yet full time , we need time financially .

I would like to maybe try for a tourist visa and visit, then maybe get married here and apply for a spousal visa.

If I back out of the fiancee visa will it be bad for us in any way?

thanks

Do I need to go to the consulate office or is there an easier way tht I could talk to someone on the phone/???

thanks again

thanks again guys

thank you all so much ,still confusing stuff, but this is super helpful

Having already applied for the Visa, if Idon't follow it through and get married here will that create problems for me in the future if I apply for a spousal visa?

Thanks Kaydeecee

I am in the Dominican Republic now. And I want to marry my Domincan girlfriend. She has a daughter. I would like to have the option of living in the States and maybe sending the kid to high school there.

My hope was to go to the States with her , leaving the kid here, get married , meet my family , spend a month or two there and then come back here. And either get ready to go back to live ir visit a couple times a year.

I want to get married. If I marry her here it is hard to get her a visa.

Do you think it would be better to marry her here and then get a spousal visa , or is it too late for that'?

Thanks for the response . We hoped to go get married and the ncome back to the Dominican Republic

SO we cant do that ?

And if we left after we got married , for example after a month or 2, she couldnt go back?

We finally got an approval email after 6 months.

Now what? It said something would come on the mail and to follow those instructions

QUESTION

If we got to the States and get married how long do we have to stay because ultimately we want to mostly be in the Dominican Repubic

thanks in advance

Peter

why does it appear that they are so against helping us? or the reason for enormous delays

Seems like the visas forwarded to Cali get processed and the ones that stay in Texas do not,is there a reason for that ,? Mine stayed in Texas

Welcome to the forum.

A point of correction:

Form I-129 = Petition for Nonimmigrant Worker

Form I-129F = Petition for K1 Fiance(e) visa

easily accessible at the top of the forum page. In particular the step-by-step K1 Visa Guide: http://www.visajourney.com/content/k1guide

Good luck on your immigration journey.

Thank you very much,this site is amazing

Hi

Im new, Day 1

I filled out the K-1 (1-129 Form) confusing, it has 2 names.

I guess my first big question is doe the site have a list of everything I need to include, like photos, proof of relationship etc.. ?

Hi,

My name is Peter. I am from Boston. I am starting the process of a Fiancee visa. My fiancee Ana Julia is from the Dominican Republic.

We want to get married in the States.

I just filled out the first K-1 form .

I really know nothing else. A friend told me this was a great site for walking me through the process.

Not sure what to even ask . I am going to fill out all the forms and then try to do everything right.

Hope this is a good way to do it.
