If you have a valid USA visa in your passport, you do not need an ESTA to fly to the USA. You might be required to check in at the airport, as a lot of airlines only let you check in online if you have an ESTA. If you are transfering on a US airport but your final destination is not in the US, you still need an ESTA.

Aren't you answering your own question? Sounds like it should be issued within ten business days :).

We need more information. Please fill out your timeline. If your fiancee is the petitioner (us citizen), then he needs to include all criminal records in the i-129f petition, even if he was falsely accused. At face value, it shouldn't be an issue as long as he shares all the information that's being asked for.

I can answer the first question about the visa packet. The answer to your question is neither, not at Heathrow or at Iceland. The envelope you're holding (that you shouldn't open under any circumstances) is for the CBP officer at your point of entry in the United States. You'll have to hand it over when you're at immigration at your arrival airport.

No, it isn't.

The answer is yes, you do have to mention it and include certified copies of all court and police records. The form states it quite clearly at the start of Part 3: "NOTE: These criminal information questions must be answered even if your records were sealed, cleared, or if anyone, including a judge, law enforcement officer, or attorney, told you that you no longer have a record." and: "Have you EVER been arrested or convicted of any of the following crimes: 2.a. Domestic violence, sexual assault, etc." and: "NOTE: If you were ever arrested or convicted of any of the specified crimes, you must submit certified copies of all court and police records showeing the charges and disposition for every arrest or conviction. You must do so even if your records were sealed, expunged or otherwise cleared, etc" Please read the forms very very thoroughly and attentively. Your answer is right there. Also, please fill in your timeline when you've filed.

We will keep that in mind :).

That is quite interesting to hear...do you have any more information about that? I'd love to read more about it and see if we can make some moves.

Hey everyone, So me (beneficiary) and my fiance have filed our I-129f at the beginning of November 2023. We noticed the vast majority of filers that month have had a response by now. We're having a hard time keeping a cool head under these circumstances (but we're not panicking..we know it's a long game!). Have any of you experienced this situation and do you have any tips on dealing with the pressure of the wait? Thanks in advance!
