Hello again,

Just quik question. Can my fiancee submit all paperwork if he is a residnt of FL to VSC, and if his mother a resident of MA? Oh he should change his driving license (from FL to MA) to be able to send the petition to VSC? If yes how long does it take?

Thank you!

It sounds like you will make it in the summer, assuming you don't have any problems during the process and all paperwork is done properly. I would review the processing time for Kazakhstan to see how long the U.S. embassy there takes to process visa applications. The process of filing is pretty much the same no matter where you are in this country. You can expect 3 to 4 months of processing by the USCIS service center. Currently Texas is sending its I-129F's to the California Service Center (CSC). You might also ask questions in the Russia regional forum about specifics since your country will have similar problems.

Good luck and plan for a new life with many changes. I don't think your time frame is unrealistic but problems can always occur. I went through this process twice. The first one took 9 months to accomplish and ended very badly. The second took five months from application until arrival. We will celebrate our first anniversary next week.

Also, learn to be patient.

Thank you for reply! But why it took9 months before? Now I am even more scared :-( I heard US Embassy in KZ works very fast as not so many girls are getting married to US citizens. It is not like in Russia.

Thank you for you reply

6 months to get through the entire process is overly optimistic. How long does it take to get an interview there? What about delays due to potential security checks? Best to do some research on the typical wait times for interviews there before you get your heart set on that timing/

I know. I aded this topic asking about US Embassy in Kazakhstan. We plan to ge married in September 2007, so I hope that we will... as if it takes more than 6 months.. we will be very upset.... but what do you think- I have US miltiple visitor visa in my passpirt. Can I visit him while our petition is inder process?

Hi again! I would like to ask if anyone in this forum is from Kazakhstan or their fiancee is from Kazakhstan. I think it will help me to understand how fast US Embassy in Kazakhstan works. Thank you in advance! We really hope that I will enter the USA in July 2007, and he will send all paper work to TSC on 19 Jan 07 (next week). I am so nervouse, as we are so tired of long distance relationship. We met 3 years ago in my country Kazakhstan. After 1 year he left back to USA since 2 years already we see each other 3 times per year and only for 3 weeks. Every his journey and mine we are so happy as we are together, bu when it is time to fly back to our home counties.... the most sad days!!!

Please help us. My fiance and I are filling I-129f Form. Hopefully we will send all paperwork before 20 January 07. He is a resident of FL, and we heard so many things about TSC- the processing time is too slow.. We hope that submiting our petition (I-129F) before 20 January 2007 I can get in USA in June 2007 with K1 visa in my passport. What do you think- are we too optimistic? Thank you

are you really from kazakhstan?

June 2007 sounds possible, but not likely. I just filed a few days ago; welcome to the club
