  1. My wife is currently in the US, our k1 was successful and we are preparing to file our AOS. My question: Her biometrics was done prior to our k1 interview, but she deferred the vaccine portion. Does she need to get the vaccinations before we apply for AOS, or do we apply first and the USCIS tells us when/where to complete the vaccination portion of the biometrics after they receive our AOS application?
  2. I am the US citizen. My wife’s I-94 will expire in about a month. We plan on applying before the expiration, I was just curious what happens if we miss the date by a week or so.
  3. Has anyone gotten married within the 90 day period, but not filed for AOS until after the 90 days has expired? Someone with personal experience would be appreciated.
  4. I’ll have to call them and find out the requirements for our county than. They should have universal requirements for this kind of thing, especially with the amount of immigration taking place now.
  5. I was thinking that also We don’t have the visa yet. Our interview is next month and I’m considering the courthouse wedding as it seems like a good option. I am in Missouri
  6. For those who chose to do a courthouse wedding after receiving their k1 visa for various reasons, what was your experience? Is the beneficiary required to only show their passport as identification? Any unexpected difficulties?
  7. I have read on the official government website that all electronics/cell phones are not allowed inside the embassy. But some people have said that you can bring your phone to the interview provided that it is turned off. Does anyone have experience with bringing your cell phone to the interview in Bogotá, Colombia?
  8. Wow, it is so crazy to think that this years long journey comes down to just a 3-5 minute interview. But I’ll take it and hope to have the same experience you did. I’m sure that couple was terrified seeing that the officer was spending extra time on them. I can only imagine. The name thing seems odd, but thankfully my fiancé has a somewhat uncommon name. Thinking about that moment and hearing those words is the thing that keeps me going. It will be such an immense weight lifted.
  9. Unfortunately I’ve only been to Colombia twice, both in Cartagena. I never felt in danger and we did a ton of exploring and took at least twenty taxis. We almost went a third time to Medellin but there was a change of plans. After this process we hope to return to Colombia many times in the future. As far as taxis I completely agree. Outside of our hotel my fiancé was essentially my handler. She took charge of all taxis, restaurants and most interactions with locals. Thank you for the recommendation. We plan to stay as close to the embassy as possible.
  10. That definitely takes some of the anxiety out of the situation. So, basically just stay quiet and act natural. And she will make sure to inform them that Spanish is her preferred language. Well, that’s a relief. I can definitely understand though knowing that even between Colombia and Venezuela the accent has differences. Another concern was safety in Bogotá. Did you take taxis to get around? Or use some kind of app?
  11. Wow that is great, congratulations. As far language goes, my Spanish is still not at a conversational level and my fiancé is not fluent in English yet. If I attend the interview do you think the language barrier would cause a problem? We can communicate on a basic level but still require some help with translation.
  12. Wow, thank you for the feedback. I will make sure to be there before the interview in that case.
  13. We have met twice and had purchased plane tickets and hotel for a third meeting. But then our petition was a approved so we canceled that trip not knowing how soon the interview would take place. Unfortunately it doesn’t look like I will be able to be there during her interview.
  14. I’m aware of the 2 year in person meeting requirement to apply for the k1 visa, but what about not meeting again for a long time before the interview? Our application was approved and our interview is scheduled for September, but my fiancé and I have not met in person for 15 months. Could the interviewing counselor see that as a problem? I can’t find any requirements for this but just wondering if anyone has experience with this issue.
  15. Congratulations. And thanks for all the information. How was the interview itself? Did it take long or did they ask any unexpected questions?
  16. Did you receive the visa? My fiancé will be in Bogotá for her interview next month.
  17. Good morning, Im from Venezuela and my appointment will be at the American Embassy in Bogota. Could you please recommend where I could stay in Bogota?
  18. We have already obtained the noa2 but we have a question in the I-797 approval letter it says that it expires in 4 months
  19. What kind of health insurance do people with a k1 visa use when coming to the US?
