    K3 visa fallowed by immigration?

    in K-3 Spouse Visa Process & Procedures

    Posted

    Hi after i get K3 visa i go to us...i have my approved 130 by uscis...can i proceed for immigration petition...instead of aos.

    IN k3 interview what to say to consulate officer when he ask?

    what are you going to do in us?

    K3 is nonimmigrant visa

    can i say i amgoing to work in a software company?

    Yes, you can enter on the K3 visa, and then go back to India for the CR1/IR1 interview instead of adjusting status. Unless you were planning to return to India anyway for a visit, that's probably a more expensive option though, especially if you haven't paid the IV fee bill yet.

    You can say you're going to work for a software company once you've obtained the Employment Authorisation Document. When you enter the US on the K3, apply for EAD or Adjustment of Status - EAD should take about 3 months.

    We need a timeline for Jatin and more information if the petition(s) have been filed. Unless Consular service is clearly requested on the I-130 filing, the I-130 is held in K3 cases, so the Consular option is off the table. You can pay $200 and file an I-824 to get it moving again but this has proved a very slow process for those who've tried it.

    Teh applicant is unwise to discuss actual plans to work until they have authorization to do so.

    Hi Pushbrk, After comming to US on K-3 what if i send AOS bill (Affidavit of support) to NVC which i got it earlier, would it be enough to continue process CR1/IR1 and go for Visa interview again back home !! or i have to file i-824 ?

    Thanks

    VFS ahmedabad query

    in K-3 Spouse Visa Process & Procedures

    Posted · Edited by Guru

    Has anybody gone through Mumbai Embassy for K3 interview recently ? I am little confused about the requirement to submit documents mentioned in packet 3. Do we have to submit these forms (DS 156 and DS 230) to the VFS Ahmedabad (my wife's currently in ahmedabad) or mail it directly to mumbai ? or do we have an option.

    Would appreciate any help from people who have gone through K3 interview recently. I wanted to know the process after the I129F petition reaches mumbai from NVC.

    Thanks

    Yes your wife would have to submit DS-156 and DS-230 at VFS A'bad. You may check on VFS web site also. My wife is going to VFS A'bad on August 17. You can also call VFS western region office in Mumbai, they will give you date to submit docs at VFS A'Bad. Do not wait till VFS time line which is no less then 7 and no more then 10 days. They told me to submit 15 days prior to interview.

    Sorry posted in the wrong forum. If administrator can move it to the South Asia forum.

    Why did I get an Affadavit of Fee Bill (I-864) when I am going for the K-3?

    No. CR1 takes a longer time to process than the K-3. It's not good. You cannot foresee the future of what may happen to your SO far away. He/She may suffer from rape, robbery, accidents, etc...It's best to have your SO arrive here in the US as possible so you can easily stay by his/her side when it's needed. That is my thought on this.

    I got it too !! Let your spouse to enter in USA on K-3 then let NVC know to send your I-130 to your local office for adjustment of status.

    Passport status change

    I had a quick question about my wife's (beneficiary's) Indian passport. Right now, it says "unmarried". Does she need to get this changed to "married" before her interview?

    Thanks,

    Vikas

    My wife got new passport with name changed in six days from A'bad passport office.

    SIX DAYS :thumbs:

    Is that the typical time it takes people to get their wife's name updated on the passport?

    Did you use the 'Tatkal' scheme?

    (I am not too aware of it,, but saw that posted by some people: not sure if it even applicable here..)

    Vikas, how long did it take for your wife?

    Anyone have any experience with the Chandigarh passport office?

    Joe

    Hi there my wife got her new passport in six days from A'bad office, i belive it's normal for name change.

    K-3 packet3 & AOS bill

    in K-3 Spouse Visa Process & Procedures

    Posted

    K-3 file is at Local consulate,Packet 3 sent today for K3. I-130 was approved on the same day and sent to NVC. Today i received AOS(Affidavit) bill and Choice of agent form !! Is it possible to get it without paying extra 200$ to USCIS? How do i hold I-130 for CR1 and go forward for K-3 only? Thank you all

    Do not respond to any mail from NVC, and the CR1 will not proceed. What is better is to respond with a letter indicating you would like the I-130 returned to the service center to await your adjustment of status. Don't pay any bills associated with the I-130 because you won't get the money back.

    I called NVC today and they told me same thing. Thank you

    K-3 March Filers at Vermont Service Centre

    in K-3 Spouse Visa Process & Procedures

    Posted

    I don't know if there is a topic for March VSC filers. But it would be nice to know if anyone who has their application at VSC got an approval. I have called VSC today and spoke with a live person, only to find out that my case is still pending. His tone was very good, and he tried his best to give me explanations on why cases might take a long time to be processed. I didn't want to hear all that, but I was polite to listen because he was polite on the phone as well. Anyhow, if you got an approval please post it since we are all in the same boat. I think the last person who got an approval from VSC (4/30/2007) was "damian" if I am not wrong.

    I am in the same boat.....
