Fill out the paperwork for the CR1. Married is married. I would also contact my congressman to have him/her help you expedite the process.

Dear moustafa I really appreciate your assistance. I applied for the I130 and now it is pending Receipt number is: LIN1591455084. Do I need to Re-apply for I129 because it is the same form submitted before as a fiance visa form that has been approved and is already at the NVC center. I've been waiting for this since last year. I wish i known she would have already been hear. I just need her to be safe here with me and you know how difficult for me to live overseas especially at this time. Any recommendations will be appreciated. I'm afraid that I might lose her because she waited a full year and I'm not sure how to tell her that it may need to be another year before I can see her again please advise.

According to our law not only in Syria but in all Muslim countries you are married , but Katb Ketab is not valid for a marriage visa because you do not have that civil marriage but you have a religious marriage , so you can apply for a fiance visa , or if she can come to Egypt , too many Syrians are here , and you come to and get a civil marriage and apply for a spouse visa

I think her dad did ktab mahkameah when I was gone so her ikraj keid says she is mohaleah meaning married. I heard that you can apply for I30 in turkey and it takes 7-10 buisness days. doese that mean to get to us to get processed or does it finish and you can apply for visa so i can take her by the end of the month. Doese anyone know?

This is the link I found. It says only for syrians national.

Please advice on this.

Thank

You

Sounds like you wasted a lot of time.

I thought Jordan also processed Syrians? So that would be an option. Maybe Turkey?

Anyway you need to get the CR1 process going, I would double check that you have the required documentation to process a spousal visa.

I think it is given directly from USCIS I did not choose the embassy. What do citizens do normally leave their loved ones behind in war zones until they get their CR1 I think teh process is going to start from scrach Im just worried that she may not make it that long there. I know me personally I can't go there she has been wanting me to go visit she misses me alot I'm afraid I might be taken ransom.

CR1 goese hand in hand with I30 form? someone mentioned something as RFE from the embassy when applying for I30 not sure what he meant. I was also reading something about a refuge visa that you can apply for a spouce any ideas or recomendation? Thank you very much moustafa.

signing the "ktab" is a marriage contract, you are legally married in the eyes of USCIS and no longer qualify for the K-1. You need to withdraw the K-1 and apply for the Cr-1, you have no choice.

I don't think I applied for k1 I applied for the I29.so do i need to withdraw that? I29 got approved. expires in november. Can I apply for 130 and still use the i29? or do i have to apply for i29 again. because i29 is submited. I was reading somewhere that you can apply for both I29 and I30 and you can get which ever comes first. Can I apply for Cr-1 with I29? and also file for I-30? Thank you very much.

Post in the regional or have this moved, others have dealt with this and know how they will handle this. I know in Nigeria they have a state couples can get into that is too married for a K1 and not married enough for a CR1. Good luck

can you explain more on what you mean? do you mean that this will not work for me in either way?

Last year I got engaged to a syrian. The syrian culture is really complicated. In order to go out with the person you like we do something called "ktab" and we get engaged. This"ktab" gets registered as marriage. At this point you can date go out ...etc but no sleeping together until you get married and do a wedding ceremony. So I did the engagement party went out together...etc. I knew this girl way back but the engagement was last year. I headed back to USA and I applied for aI29 for a fiance visa. After a long wait it finally got approved and they requested documents. in her documents they don't say single anymore it shows as married. As you know right now syria is not a safe place and she is at risk. I am not sure how to proceeded with this can I continue filling or do I need to do I30. If i need to do I30 is there way to still use the I29and have her get on a k1 visa? I'm really scared for her. I can not function correctly with out her, i'm always up all night trying to figure out what to do. if there was an american embassy in syria she can go there. but its very hard to commute back and forth being a girl by herself all the way to lebanon; her parents don't ever let her go out alone. last time she went to lebaon with her mother. I also applied for her mother's visa so she can come to the states because no wedding has happened yet and she wants to be here when her daughter gets married in usa. She got denied. On the boarder they them only 48 hrs to enter lebanon and the only reason she was allowed is because she had an appointment with the us embassy. now they will not let her enter lebanon. Now my fiance who is registered by law as my wife will have difficulty entering lebanon because she can't go by herself. America has issued a warning to not enter syria, and recommended not to enter lebanon. I'm terrified to go there and get her and even if I am there im not sure How i can bring her to usa. What can I do in my situation. I'm willing to try anything to get my love here. In my eyes she is my fiance, to arab culture she is not married but according to law she is. What can be done in this situation?
