Yep, they filed the AOS. Their interview and biometrics in Memphis is coming up this month.

Hey guys,

If someone came here on a K1 visa, got married and then decided to permanently leave the country (returning to their own country), what would happen? I read about the i-751 (Petition to Remove the Conditions of Residence) form that one fills out. The filling fee is $545. What if you didn't send this in? Why is there a charge of $545 so that someone else can update their paperwork?

Essentially, what do you do when your marriage didn't work and you have to leave and you have no money?

I got EXACTLY the same letter from Dr Sayed too. So I have to find a psychiatrist in Aberdeen now and get them to fax a report to Knightsbridge. I spoke to my GP about it and he has referred me to one but I won't hear from them for about 2 weeks, and my embassy interview is in 6 days! So I'm calling private ones today.

I called a private psychiatrist yesterday, who is at Harley Street, London. I figure I could get an appointment for the same day I go down for my interview. He wanted to charge me £500 for it! ....no thanks.

Hopefully the ones I call can just get it done fast without charging me to death.

I also have to get a mumps shot and get an immunisation record that I had somewhere other than my GP which I didn't know existed before yesterday. Apparently in Aberdeen when you get immunisation shots at your high school, they record it at the practitioner services and not your GP. :hassle:

I might just go ahead and get the adult MMR to save time.

There's no way I'll get the visa straight after my interview, because my medical is going to take ages to complete, all because of "self harm" 13 damn years ago.

Hey Greylove,

I have a question about the forms you have to return to the embassy after receiving the NOA2.

Do I return the IV-15 forms seperately from the DS-156, DS-156K and DS-230 part 1? Can I return them all at the same time?

Also, DS-156K says, "The following documents must be attached in order to apply for a fiance(e) nonimmigrant visa", and then it lists police certificates, evidence of financial support, etc. Do I have to send that stuff with the ds forms? I thought I brought those to the interview.

Sorry if this was answered elsewhere. If I had more time I would spend it searching the forums, but since you've done it quite recently I thought it would be smarter to just ask.

Thanks for any help.

Hey guys,

I'm about to send off my IV-15 to the embassy (Notification of Applicant Readiness and Checklist) and one of the things on the checklist is 'Notarized Statement'. What is this?

thepizzadude: yep, the DS-156 is the form I was referring to.

Thanks all for the advice. feeling a little less highly strung but who knows what will happen. I have a letter that says I only got a warning for the whole thing so I'll bring that with me.

I'll report back when I know more. Thanks guys!

If you weren't arrested then there's no problem. You weren't convicted of a crime so there's nothing to worry about.

I was arrested. They said I was charged with assault but, when they realised the circumstances were ridiculous, in the end I only got a warning.

Hey guys. I'm 28 years old, and I'm a British citizen in the midst of getting my K1 visa so I can marry my awesome fiancee (appledrop on the forums). I've never had any dealings with the police in my life.....right up to 2 weeks ago where something absolutely ridiculous happened and I got a warning for assault.

Now, I am expecting my interview at the embassy very soon and I'm totally stressed about this. I know it's only a warning but can someone reassure me that this isn't going to affect things?

The ridiculous thing is, there's a question on one of the forms that asks if I've ever been arrested for anything even if it was pardoned. It's in the same section that asks at the same time have you ever trafficked drugs or been a pimp or a #######.

Seriously. So from now on, do I have to tick "YES, I have been arrested and/or have trafficked drugs and/or am a pimp and/or #######" ??

They shoud go ahead and ask, "Do you like cake and/or drink the blood of innocent children?"

Any advice will be appreciated, of course.

Thanks.
