Hello, I was reading your comment about the medical exam, and I have some questions about it. Is she or you from Chile? I am from Chile and I am waiting for my letter or "packet 3" to have the interview. My question is, how much did you have to pay the doctor? you said $ 100.000 clp but also to the doctor you have to give him $ 120.000clp more ??? I would appreciate your help! Thank you!

Hey guys, quick question.

I just spoke to the NVC and the lady provided our case number but our case is still with the NVC. I checked the website and they gave "next 6 steps" but it is saying we have to pay the immigration fee for the D-260? I know the K-1 visa application (d-160) fee online is $265 and I know there is the "non-immigrant" and "immigrant" visa but we are doing the D-160 right? That's all I've read about for months now. So do we "have" to follow the 6 steps they said? When I spoke to the lady at NVC this morning she basically stated "their work" is done and now we deal with the US Embassy which I figured (and have read on this forum) but the link states for us to send all documents to the NVC and they will schedule our interview?? Is this how it usually done, but since we are doing the K-1 visa the process is different than most? And again there is the difference between the "immigrant visa" and "non immigrant visa"? I feel like we may be getting a mixed message. Can we just go and fill out and pay the fee for the D-160 application today with our NVC case number and then call to schedule our medical and interview today/this week with the US Embassy in Chile?

****I read that there is the K-1 visa fee which is $265 and the Immigrant visa fee which is $220. Being that we are doing the K-1 visa we are excluded from the $220? And is that the difference between the d-160 and the d-260? I hope I made sense.****

Thanks

Thanks for the reply @Greenbaum but please forgive me, other than the sealed medical exam docs, what other sealed packet are you referring to? 

Hey guys! 

Quick question. I know you are not allowed to leave the country on a K1 visa once you arrive. (Assuming no advanced parole). But I will be flying to Chile to pick my fiancé up and we will travel back to the US together. (It's a huge moment for us and we want to be together.) On our way home, were thinking of spending a few days in Peru and 1 day in Panama prior to Dianas official arrival in the US. Is this Ok to do? She will not have entered the US yet. 

Thanks
