    I-129F Question 18

    in K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures

    Posted

    Try to include the details of how you two met first online (IMBRA) and the details of all your meetings in person like when, where and how long. We did not say a word about the dating service which introced us, and at the interview I wasked that very question about how and where we had met. Well, I had to tell them... And later, after the denial, we went through all the questions in our I-129F and noticed that very bigGAP... Well, the rest of it you can find in our timeline. Good luck, and if you nedd extra space just attach an extra sheet (write "See Attachment N to I-129F" in Q.18. but be sincere describing everything - it can cost you years of your and your loved one lives! In our case what I said at the interview was different from what was written in the petition - and we got 221(g)!

    Well, yes, I am 100%+100%=200% sure I would return back! But thank you for the respond... Just a crazy midnight idea which unexpectedly came to my mindd... I better go take a chill pill right now!

    You probably will not get it - since you have a visa in process right now and your from the Ukraine...

    If you apply, you will waste time and money if denied - if you have that freely - go for it, but I would just wait for the CR-1.

    Pretty sure? You should be 100% positive you will return back for the interview, if they grant you the visitors visa!

    Dear VJs from Ukraine and other countries,

    We are currently waiting on our CR1 Interview date to be assigned by the NVC, and surfing the links I caught a crazy idea in my head: what if I try to apply for a visitor visa right now? Yes, I do understand that the chances are the smallest, but still... I want to see my husband so much! He will not be able to come here till the Interview time, so I just wanted to kill the waiting time getting to see him... Yes, sure I did read about folks being denied their visitor visas applyed for while waiting on the family based visas, but still... Well, I still have a small hope. He is going through the difficult time now and I am really worried... I would love to be there to give my full care and support... And, certainly, I am pretty sure I will return back to my home country (for the interview!) as soon as I get ensure that he is doing just fine - let's say in a week or two!

    What do you think, guys, how many chances I have?

    Thank you!

    Irina.

    Fiace Refused For Reason of "Other"

    in K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures

    We were in your shoes, friend, and we did decide to get married... But before filing again try to find the reason why the petition was refused. In our case we just compared the only THREE questions I was asked at the interview with our I-129F, and we did find what was supposingly wrong... It was IMBRA and the Qs.18 and 19. Well, The I-130 does not include those very questions, so we just submitted an extract on the ONLY e-mail we got about 221(g) and we did provide them with the number of our previous petition... We just passed the NVC with our I-130 and are currently waiting on the interview date to be assigned. Meantime we are going through all the possible questions we can be asked at our new interview, and I wouldalso like to mention that we never got a NOID or RFE for our new petition... And also I do have to admit that that denial eventually IMPROVED our relationship, and it gave my parents a chance to personally be present at our wedding, which was my dream! Id we had gone the K1 route, my parents would have never had a chance to attend the wedding due to the visa process and some other factor. So, try to find something good in your situation and cheer up - the Sun is still shining and life is good! And you two do love each other! :-) God Bless you!

    In other words...does NVC try to imagine something that could happen in the future and deny based on that? No. Expenses are not taken into consideration at all. If you have enough INCOME you qualify. It does not matter if your expenses are higher than your income, they do not ask about your expenses, they do not care. Why?

    Because they do not care about you or your future spouse. They only care that they have a means to collect their money back if your sponsored spouse goes on welfare. Since they are the government, they get in line first. They will confiscate what they want and do not care if you live in a refrigerator box. If they had even the slightest care about you they would ask for a statement of income and expenses and do a credit check. They do not.

    If your income and/or assets are sufficient, you will not be denied for lack of being able to support. They will not ask about surgery.

    Hi Gary and Alla, Thank you for the respond. Some time ago we realized that Alan might need the operation on his back, and we were thinking of expediting our case on this basis, in order for me to be with him after the surgery... He is supposed to spend several weeks in the bed after that, not being able to work or take care of himself, so he would definitely need someone to be with him 24/7. And sure, as his wife I am certain it is my responsibility!!! Well, we just decided better not to expedite the case for the reason of possibly being denied (if someone thinks that my husband needing help would meen me becoming a public charge...). That's basically why I am asking this question - I might just be unreasonable or too suspicious... Or, step-by-step, I might be getting paranoic with this process... Well, hopefully I am not!

    waiting for 46 months and counting.....

    Hey guys, you are not alone here... We filed our first petition for our K1 in Dec 2007, and we got denied almost 14 months after that... We got married in Jul 2009, and are still thousands of miles apart, so far from each other... But we ARE together in our spirit! And we are very thankful to the wonderful team of people created and maintaining Skype, which made our life MUCH easier! Only God knows when we will finally be together in real life, without having to take apart for long months or years, and and only HE knows when we will forget about this dull and long paper process (if ever!) (Crying): I want to be with my hubbyyyyyyyyyyy!:crying:
