Hello everyone! 🙂 I'm a K-1 visa holder getting married in Washtenaw County, Michigan. On the marriage license, my current legal name (from my passport) is listed. The instructions for the "Certificate of Marriage" section (which we’ll sign after the ceremony) say to print the name you’ll use after marriage. Since I will apply for AOS and change my name through Form I-485, should I print my current legal name (as on my passport) or my intended new married name on the certificate? I want to avoid issues with USCIS. Has anyone had experience with this in Michigan? I’d be very grateful for any advice or experience you can share!

K-1 Visa Entry at Detroit (DTW)
dreamer32 replied to dreamer32's topic in Moving to the US and Your New Life In America
Thank you so much for the detailed reply — I really appreciate it! I actually entered through DTW just a few days ago, on May 8th. My experience was smooth — no secondary, and it took around 10 minutes total. The CBP officer seemed confused by my Polish police certificate at first, and I couldn’t really understand why in the moment since I was so tired after the long travel. Later, while talking to my fiancé, we realized it was probably European date format that caused the confusion 🤣 They only took the sealed envelope — not the X-ray CD. Thanks again for sharing your experience! 😊 -

K-1 Visa Entry at Detroit (DTW)

Thanks so much for sharing — that’s really reassuring to hear! I’ll check out the reviews too. Appreciate the support! -
Hi everyone! I’ll be entering the U.S. next week through Detroit Metropolitan Airport (DTW) on a K-1 visa, and I’d love to hear from others who’ve entered through this POE. Will I need to hand over my X-ray CD along with the sealed medical envelope, or should I just carry it with me? What was your experience like at Detroit POE as a K-1 visa holder? How long did secondary inspection take, if any? I’ll be traveling alone and want to make sure I’m fully prepared. Thanks so much in advance!

Thank you for your reply! I understand the timing concern. I will be writing a petition to assign a different person to handle my case if possible, as I won’t be able to attend the court hearing in July. Hopefully, this will ensure everything is taken care of while I proceed with my K1 visa process.

Hi everyone! I’m the complainant/victim in a legal case and I just received a letter today with my court date scheduled for July. Since there isn’t a court decision yet and I'm the victim, do I need to show documents or provide any proof regarding this case at the embassy during my K1 visa interview next week? Any advice or experiences would be greatly appreciated! Thank you very much!

No, I have not received anything from my embassy yet. My fiancé received K1-FTP letter last Wednesday. When I tried to get an appointment back then, the system did not allow me saying "my case is not ready for an appointment" . However, I wanted to try it again today and the system allowed me to get an appointment in April even my case is still in transit.

Hi everyone, My case went "In Transit" last Wednesday and was not ready for an appointment two days ago when I checked, but I was able to schedule one today. My embassy will probably receive my case soon, and my interview is on April 11th. Could there be any problems with setting an appointment before my case is officially marked as "Ready"? I’m feeling a bit paranoid and would love to hear from others who went through something similar! Thanks in advance!😊

Thanks for the insight! I know the case number is the same, but unfortunately, I can’t do anything until the site shows that our case is in transit. I’ve noticed that some cases sent to NVC after ours, and to the same embassy, have already been transferred, and people have even scheduled their interviews. It’s a bit puzzling, but I’ll reach out to the embassy soon to see if they can provide any updates. It’s a waiting game for now, but I appreciate your help!

Thanks for the suggestion! I totally agree, it’s really frustrating not knowing what’s going on. As far as I know, people can set an appointment even when their case is still in transit. Also, from what I understand, the K1-FTP letter should be sent at the same time as the case is transferred to the referred embassy, so it’s a bit strange that we haven’t received it yet. Our case just seems to be sitting at their office. Hopefully, things will start moving soon!
