Hi have a question about the AOS process. When my then fiance-now wife first came last month on a k1 visa, she, as instructed, had to bring the envelope(that was mailed to her house with the visa) from the embassy with all the interview info in it(medical report, criminal background, birth certificate, my finance support info). The officer at POE took it and opened it, and said he would send it to USCIS. Now that we are filing the I485, the instruction sheet says that we have to attatch this information again to the I485. Why do we have to include all of that again if the officer at the POE sent the stuff in the envelope to USCIS already, shouldnt it already be in their system now? Should I request that paperwork back and then attatch it to the 485? That would kinda defeat the purpose in my opinion but it just seems kinda weird that if the POE officer sent it to them that we would have to gather that info all over again and re-send it to them less than 5 weeks later. Please help.

Hey all, Jeraly Im very happy to hear about your progress and hope you get approved very soon. I have a question for everyone about form ds-157 question 9. My fiance has been to ALOT of countries in the EU multiple times over the past 10 years on vacations and such, does she really have to list all of those times? It just seems like alot of history to research, it would be like asking a u.s. citizen what states we've visited over the past 10 years and when....I dont remember that does anyone have any insight into this?

hey all, I hope everyone is enjoying their pre-holidays. Im going to have to pack in another day or 2 because Im going to spend the holidays(including new years) with my lady. I just wanted to let you all know the nvc got our case on the 6th and it was sent out the next day, I dont know yet what day the embassy recieved it but my fiance called and let me know she got the packet 3 in the mail today she said shes kinda stressed cause its so many forms to fill out so I told her we'll do them together over the phone. But thats where we stand right now.

p.s. as part of proof of support: does anyone know if there has to be a certain amount in my bank account or are they just looking to see if I have a bank account in general? thx

No need to disclose any bank assets or property if you already meet the 125% proverty line. I put "Not Reported" on all lines with monetary value except where it ask for your salary.

are you absolutely sure about not needing a bank statement? I only ask because as far as salary I make well over the 125% poverty line, but Im buying her a car and its christmas season so Ive been spending like a drunk at a strip club and I have another question; Im online talking with my fiance right now and shes reading through the packet, and it list doctors you can go to for the medical exam but she wants to know if she can go to her doctor which is much closer to her, does anyone know if she has to go to a doctor on the list or if she can go to her own.

Well I sent mine in june 30th, they recieved it july 10th(sent to nebraska which was forwarded to california) and processed on july 11th. Does anyone think its possible for my fiance to have her visa by this year?(from germany) Good luck to you all

hi there, me and my fiance are going through the k-1 process right now and we just got our reciept number from uscis(we are july). My questions is on her g325, she came to the us from germany under a j1 visa being an au pair. Under the employment she put the name of the au pair agency and under occupation she put au pair. Should she have put exchange visitor instead? Or is au pair fine and uscis understand it. Also do you think she will have her k1 visa before the year is out. Please help a nervous wreck, thank you.

Is she subject to HRR?

what is hrr?
