    Why not file for the visa AND go to your fiance's country while waiting for the process? That way you're still getting some movement on the visa and you can see your partner too.

    That is my plan do my final semester of college online while there. As I fear if I commit to the univ there for a year and by a miracle the k-1 gets approved we would lose that chance due to that.

    If anything, living abroad with your spouse would actually strengthen your spousal visa application down the road, as you'd have tons of evidence to show for it. In terms of abandoning the K-1, I don't think it would have a negative impact because given the Covid situation, there would be a legitimate reason to do so.

     

    The lawyers aren't wrong to say it would be a long wait. Everyone is in the same boat right now. CR-1's aren't exactly getting processed speedily either right now.

    Correct, which is no one fault it’s highly difficult for many of us regardless of which visa k-1 aren’t “alone”. As I’ve seen some feel k-1 are the target when we aren’t but, I think if a chance comes for someone to be able to spend alot

    of time overseas they should. Hence my situation :)

    Did they say why a K-1 is a wrong choice?  I suppose they want to "help" you with a CR-1 ?  

    They said due to how everything is going pandemic, government issues that k-1 are the least of their worries . They added onto that by saying I would be in a long wait to the point I left feeling defeated and stupid. 
    being patient is key in this situation but, I’m wondering if it’s just best to let the ship sail and just go there for a few years. Although, I’m sure timing will just get slower and longer with everything.

    Hello everyone,

    reading the forums I know I’m not alone in feeling frustrated on how K-1 are being handled. I’ve spoken to attorneys and I basically have been told by all of them a k-1 is a wrong choice. Have any of y’all decided to just ditch the k-1 and go to your fiancé country? As that’s what I’m considering doing but, if I do that would it impact  us in the future if we obviously went the spousal route years later.

     

    Am I overthinking ?

    Hello everyone,

    I know many of us are getting impatient and worried with all the changes going on. However, I am at a crossroads as I USC have kids and my fiancé does not. I am able to study abroad as I am a Uni student should I take that chance or just wait it out? 
    also is it possible to file for a tourist visa after filing for a k1 but buying a round ticket so he could come here then travel with my kids and me. 
    Thanks :)

    K-1 STUCK FOR INTERVIEW

    The stress of waiting can be intense I know that first hand. It also doesn’t help sometimes the news and things can make you go crazy. However, if it’s just the interview part be patient this is a true test if you guys can handle stress thrown your way. As like others have said this is just the start there’s a lot to come after. Good luck ! 

    K1 Visa... to file or not?

    in What Visa Do I Need - Family Based Immigration

    Posted · Edited by Hunkydory97

    Honestly I filed for the K-1 after 1 visit which happened after 1 year of dating. I heard the whole spousal visa was better for certain reasons. However, I could not be in my fiancée country for the length of time it would require to get married plus I have children of my own so I couldn’t just leave them for months while I’m having the time of my life overseas. Plus he does not have a passport so traveling here obviously isn’t an option. NO ONE knows your situation and what’s best for your relationship but, you two. 
    this forum it’s easy to feel down about it but, honestly all visas are in limbo and waiting time.

    if your relationship is strong it can handle this challenge in my opinion . Good luck ❤️

    Foreign fiancee pregnant by someone else

    From the limited information that I have been able to gather, she originally was going to terminate (and likely never tell me), however she has a few issues with her reproductive side of things, and her doctor essentially told her "It's a miracle you were even able to get pregnant, it's not likely to happen again". After hearing that she chose not to terminate and keep it from me for quite a long while, obviously.

     

    I still don't know all the details, but suffice to say things aren't exactly looking promising.

    I wouldn't call her a keeper at all. 

     

    Where is the father in all this? Is he aware of the pregnancy? 

    This is heartbreaking. I can see why she choose to keep the child. However, the lack of respect (not telling you) that would lead to significant trust issues. If she can hide / lie about that imagine what else she could if you marry her. You will end up even more hurt run as it’s still early.

    You will need a passport for the DS-160.  You will have to wait for the passport if the beneficiary does not have one yet.

    Sadly thought this was the case just wanted confirmation thank you 🙂

    Hello everyone,

    Is it important in the NVC stage to have the passport number of the foreigner? As my fiancé was looking at form DS-160 and saw that. However, what if my fiancé cannot get a passport due to the pandemic the offices being closed. Is it possible to leave it blank but add a letter from the officials stating that? Thanks :)

    Yes, anyone can apply for a tourist visa.

    Thank you,

    just reading posts about strong ties makes me nervous now. Although, I have a job, I am enrolled in university just not registered in any courses, live at home, never been out of my homeland but I do take care of my siblings. I will wait until consulate opens and apply take the chances.

    You shouldn't have any problems with trying to obtain a tourist visa. Whether or not it's easy to obtain it in your country is another question. You need to sow sufficient proof that you have ties to your home country.

     

    This is a pinned thread about visiting, I think you'll find it useful:

    Hello fellow VJ members, 

    I applied for a K1 in April and COVID-19 made things worse for multiple people. I expect a long wait ahead for the final approval 2021 if lucky enough. However, I wonder can I apply for a tourist visa to visit my fiancée in US? Yes, I know about the bans traveling. Mainly would it interfere if I file for that while a K1 is processing. 
    thank you
