Well, they denied him the visa.

Is the tourist visa interview in Lima in English or Spanish??? Thanks!

Thanks so much for the info! My boyfriend has 2 jobs and is studying English in Lima. I hope that will be enough.

Any idea how long it takes to get the visa, once you are approved?

Who filed? My Peruvian spouse (then GF)

What country? Peru

What documents did they bring to the interview?

Too many...

From me (USC):

- Letter to consulate asking for her to get a B2 Visa

- Invitation letter stating why I want her to visit with me and where we will be in the US

- Letter from my employer saying I work in Peru and my salary

- Copy of my employment contract

- My bank statements from USA and Peru

- Copy of my passport

- Copy of my Carne de Extranjeria

- Letter from me stating my financial responsibility for her during the trip

- Letter stating I will ensure her return to Peru

From her (Peru citizen):

- Letter from her employer stating her position and salary

- Her Peru bank statements

- Copy of her medical degree(s) diplomas

- Affidavit showing personal property she owns in Peru (car, apartment, etc)

- Affidavit of return assurance

What questions were asked in the interview?

She told me she was asked only 4 questions: Why she is going. Who I was to her. What my job was in Peru. How she met me.

Questions asked at POE?

- Who is she visiting

- Where she was going in the US

- How long you staying

- Why so long of stay (3 weeks)

Did you do a letter of invitation for the family member(s)?

- Yes, I wrote a letter of invitation

Any tips?

- Take everything and anything that this site recommends. Better too much than not enough. All the stuff she took, they didn't ask to see. But we both felt better that she had it in case they wanted extra stuff.

About how long did it take for her to actually get the B2 visa after her interview? Thanks!

Right, I am worried they will consider my boyfriend an immigrant risk if he says he's visiting me.

Are all the B2 visas 10 year visas?? I thought they were for 6 months only.

Thanks!

Send a notarized letter stating that you want to withdraw your I-129F petition to the USCIS service center that adjudicated your I-129F petition, the NVC and the consulate in Peru. Include a copy of your receipt notice and/or approval notice so they can see all the info for your case.

No reason needed.

Withdrawing an I-129F petition will not have an impact on applying for future visas.

9 FAM 41.81 N7 TERMINATION OF K VISA PETITION APPROVAL

(CT:VISA-1845; 06-25-2012)

USCIS regulations (8 CFR 214.2(k)) provide that the death of a petitioner or written withdrawal of the petition prior to the arrival of the beneficiary in the United States automatically terminates the approval of the petition. The consular officer should return the petition to the approving USCIS office with an appropriate memorandum.

So I need 3 letters total? Right now the petition is at the NVC, it hasn't gone to the consulate in Peru yet. Can't I just write one letter to NVC?

How hard is it to get a tourist visa from Peru to the States? I have heard it's really hard but I'd love some advice.

Also, is it true that if they deny you you can't apply again for a year?

Thanks!

Also, do I have to give a reason for canceling in my letter?

Thank you! When you say it can take a while, how long do you mean?

If my fiancee were to apply for a tourist visa to visit me in the US while the K1 was being cancelled, how would that work? I would imagine it wouldn't look great in his interview. For example, if I wrote the letter to cancel it but hadn't received an answer yet, and he tried to get a B2 tourist visa, would he have to mention the K1?

I received my NOA2 so I would need to write to NVC to cancel it.

If my husband and I have kids, would I file an I-130 for each person coming to the U.S., or would the kids go on the form under the benficiary's children?

I am strongly considering canceling my K1 visa application and going to my fiancee's country to live and marry instead (Peru). Is it hard to cancel the K1 visa? Will it make problems if we want to come back to the US later on a DCF/CR1 visa?

I have only gotten to the NOA1 stage. I can't find a job here, so I don't know how I will support myself, let alone him, once he gets here and has to wait to work.

There should be an option in WhatsApp to email the chat to yourself. Go to your SO's 'Contact Info' page (just hit their name at the top of your chat history), then at the bottom there should be an 'Email Chat' option. I believe you can just send it to yourself from there, and then print it off from email!

Found it, thanks!!

After having read some of the discussions on here, I am getting the idea that the medical exam needs to be done within a certain time, i.e. close to the interview date. Is that true? What is the time frame? Or can my fiance do it now even though we have only recently received NOA1?

The Peruvian Embassy website doesn't say anything about this.

Thank you!

Can my fiance pay his $265 fee in cash, and in soles, or does he have to pay in some other form in USD when he goes for the interview? Thanks!

How do I even print WhatsApp conversations off my phone? We have a ton of those too and I'd like to include them. Thanks!
