There was a ban for Family-based categories of LPR relatives.

Why can't you go to the embassy? 🤔

Not the Emabassy, I can't go to Argentina

The ban is lifted! Finally!

Any of you have any idea how long will it take to get an interview for F2A category?

What ban was lifted? I'm a US citizen and according to the US embassy in Buenos Aires Website I can't go there.

If your petition got approved, she will need to schedule the interview at the Bogota Embassy to show all the requirements, if the visa is approved she will need to wait for her passport with the visa and some documents in Bogota, use the hotel address or pick it up later at the embassy, them she can fly the same or the very next day, it's a long process my suggestion, read a lot, document yourself.

First have the meeting, she will go back to Venezuela and you to Vegas, if everything works for both file the I-129f form (that's the petition) including all the information, proof of meeting, payment, etc. 

Hey, 

First she needs the Passport, after that she can do Dominican Republic or Mexico both are good options for Venezuelan, meet her there and them you can file for the K1 visa. She needs to stay in Venezuela during the process and maybe go to Colombia like a month before the interview at the Bogota Embassy to do medical exams, for the petition you have to put the Bogota Embassy that's the one serving Venezuelan Citizens.

Does this mean most of us can fill out inquiry requests?

If your process passed 7.5 months yes, it also means they are processing faster right now.

Hello All,

Visit the USCIS Website!!!!

That is true, try to speak with a Mortgage Loan Officer from your City to clear the question, but based on my experience just apply for the Mortgage yourself if you add your Fiance/Wife the lender will consider her credit score, income and debt. You can be approved by yourself and remember your future wife will not have permission to work in the US for a while. I just sold one with the Husband on the mortgage and the wife staying at home with the baby, the lender used only his information but as a legally married couple both parties are owners and will be in the title.

I sell houses daily, if you have credit and income apply for the mortgage yourself, if you can get approved great, your future husband/wife can be on the title anyways and will sign some documents at the closing table.  

Hello Ana, you should tell your Fiance to Call or email the US Embassy in Spain and explain the situation, in my opinion the Travel Ban is not an excuse you can travel to another country and them enter to the USA, have him email the embassy requesting an appointment for you

Hello I do Real Estate here in US, month to month is a common extension used, keep your original lease it won't be a problem, in case you need more evidence just ask your landlord for an email stating you are living there in a month to month lease.

Hello All,

I sent my I-129f November 9/9/2020 to the Dallas Lockbox 

Received at the California Center 9/11/2020

Credit Card Charged the fee 9/14/2020

NOA1 hard copy 9/24/2020

Still shows case received, let's hope for the best

I hope so! Happy new year everyone 

I followed and comply all the requirements as you can see meeting in person will be an extreme hardship for me “political immigration restrictions from a foreign country” that’s why you have the option to request a waiver, I know my case is not an easy one but again I don’t have the power to predict the future like you, I’ll just wait and hope the best

Thanks again, I did my research and on the requirements list from the USCIS website shows 

• Evidence you met your fiancé(e) in-person within two years of you filing your Form I-129F. If you haven’t met within two years, submit evidence that meeting in-person would violate strict and long-established customs of your fiancé(e)’s foreign culture or social practice or would be an extreme hardship on the petitioner.

I deal with legal contracts on a daily basis I did my application following all the rules and requirements, as I said I have nothing to do but wait, best of all 

Hello well I appreciate all the comments, let’s see what happens, I have no power to predict the future like you guys and also I know how to read! Money is not a problem thank God I have an amazing career I forgot to mention I did requested a waiver for extreme hardship the Argentina Government still up to date has a travel ban for tourist so technically I can’t go there, the us embassy told me I can’t travel there I did include my two canceled air tickets and more evidence, in November 2020 Argentina authorized their residents to travel and that’s why we booked Mexico to have our meeting, let’s see I have nothing to do but wait, I hope the best for all of you in 2021

Hello because we know each other since 2010 I used to work by her place and we have been friends we haven’t seen in the previous 2 years but I know her long time ago 

Hello All,

New Member here, short story my Fiance is in Argentina and I sent the I-129f recently, It was received November 11 2020, I just have the receipt hard copy and no more updates, yesterday I did talk to an agent from USCIS over the phone and she told me most likely 6 months so be patient until March 2021. My only concern is the two years meeting requirement, I know my fiance since 2012 but we haven't seen each other in the past 2 years so I tried to visit her in Argentina but the country still has a Travel ban it is closed for tourist, I did include an explanation letter about it with my I-129f package, let's see I'll keep you posted. The good thing we booked for Mexico this month and had our meeting with tons of proof if needed.
