Dear all,

I need an advice.

We got our file in NVC but did't submit the AOS yet.

I have a tourist visa for US but my kids don't (my husband is American but the kids are mine from a previous marriage).

I want to apply for visit visa for the kids because we want to travel for Christmas.

would the US Embassy have any issues with giving the kids a tourist visa?

We are all living abroad.

Thank you!

Regards,

MIha

Hello everybody!

Quick question:

Can the AOS fee bill be paid by the applicant?

Yes, the petitioner can forward the Affidavit of Support Fee Bill Invoice to the applicant for payment.

(link: http://travel.state.gov/content/visas/en/immigrate/immigrant-process/documents/fees/nvc-fee-payment-faqs.html)

BUT:

how can I (the applicant) pay the AOS bill since I do not have a US bank account? Can I pay by international money order or what?

Thx!

M.

I just had the same issue happen, did you find out what happened? No one can give me answers.

Thanks!

yes. the courier needs to specify that the payment for the package is inside (money order)

they accepted my package after the courier informed the receiver about the payment method.

Dear all,

I have sent the I-130 petition package through FexEx to the Chicago lock-box.

Fed Ex told me that the package was rejected by the receiver, Does anyone know why??

They said they were asking for payment method. I paid the courier. Do I need to pay some fees to the Lockbox or what??

I'm confused.

Dear all,

i have purchased a money order from Money Gram.

Where do I write " for I 130 application" ? The money order does not have a specific place to write it on and I don't want to write anywhere to void the payment.

any help?

thx!

Is it possible, that after a case is in NVC, to make a request to be processed at the Embassy where we make the application from? We live abroad (Abu Dhabi, UAE) and i was wondering if our case can be processed at the Consular section in the Embassy.

thanks!

Dear All,

I want to know if it's possible to submit I130 for CR1 visa in Abu Dhabi.

I am kinda confused cause i keep reading that there are cases processed at the Embassy in AD.

I want to know what is the procedure to have the case handled here at the Embassy and if it is possible will the time frame be shorter?

Me and my fam want to move to US before the next school year starts because we have kids.

I really need accurate info cause time is really an issue.

thanks a lot!

Hi Miha,

Yes you can appy for CR1 visa in Abu Dhabi Embassy but it is your husband who will petition you. All he has to do once he applied in US (i don't know the procedure for CR1 petition because I am a K1 applicant) he can choose the Abu Dhabi as the consular location. They will forward your application to abu dhabi embassy and you can process the application from there.

Again I'm not an expert so I suggest you post a new topic regarding your question. There are a lot of people in here who can answer your question in detail Good Luck!

we are both living in Abu Dhabi. So he will need to file I 130 from here. As i read on the Embassy website we need to file in US.

I don't know how the file can be processed here...I'm confused...What he needs to do to process here and it will take less time if we do so?

Hello everyone. I need help. I am currently fillip up the DS160 form and i have a few questions.

1) I am currently living and working in Dubai. I have applied the k1 visa in abu dhabi. my question is what should i write in the home address? Should I put my Dubai address or should I put my home address in my home country?

2) I have filled the DS160 form before when I applied for a tourist visa in 2013 in USEM Manila, Unfortunately I didn't get my visa. But I need to ask, does the information I have submitted before should be the same information I will put in my DS160 for k1 application? Does it affect my application if there are changes in the information?

Please help me.

Thank you in advance

can you apply for immigration at the EMbassy in Abu Dhabi? I knew that there is no direct filling. can you give me details? I'm applying for CR1 visa and if possible I will apply in Abu Dhabi.

thanks!

M.

Hi!

I'm preparing the package for the I130 - CR1 visa.

I have one question:

I'm filing from Abu Dhabi and here there is no zip/postal code. What do I put on that line on the I130 app form?

thanks!

you said your wife has a green card. on her maiden name or your name?

I got married outside Romania and I just issued mt romanian marriage certificate so I can tell you what is the procedure.

the name is very important that is why I need to know which name she has.

let me now and I will give you details.

good luck!

Thanks!

what about the proof of income if we live abroad?

Hi !

My husband and I are living abroad for the past 4 years. We need to fill up the I-864 affidavit of support but I have an issue.

He did not file for taxes for the past 4 years because he is exempt (annual income less then 99200 USD). He still needs to file ? or he can check the box on the form saying that he is exempt and that is why he did't file?

Also, can I be added as a household member to support his affidavit and fill up I-864 A form? I am working as well and my income can be counted as well, true?

We did't start the process for CR1 visa for me and my kids yet and I need to know what's up ahead so when the time comes, I don't want to lose time.

Also, we are both work here, but if we move to US we do not have a job. How do we prove that we are not a charge for the state? We have a good separation severance from the company when we leave from here. Can we use that as proof that we can support the family till we find a job?

any reply will be useful! Thanks!

M.

so....I can make payment from Abu Dhabi through a international money transfer. Anybody knows what i need to write on the money order?

thanks!

but the currency of the international money order is USD.

So the transfer will be in USD.

To make that money order I need the details of the USCIS account no, right??

or how do we do it?

Can't do it by cheques because the bank does not issues cheques.

Another question...can someone in US pay for us? To make a money order from their account on our behalf?

thanks!

Hey everybody!

I am applying for a CR1 visa for me and my kids from a previous marriage.

my husband and I work abroad and we need to file the case from overseas. there is no DFC possibility in Abu Dhabi, as the Embassy does not accept I-130 applications.

How can we pay the USCIS 420$ fee from Abu Dhabi? My husband has an USAA account but no cheques and he cannot go to US to make a money order due to his work. I have called the USCIS and they said they accept international money transfer. Is it true? Can it be from any bank?

I have read some topics on this site saying that USCIS didn't accept the money.

how can we pay?

thanks!
