The question I have: How will you prove your fiance will not become a public charge? Do you have sufficient income to show the government?
P.S. -- Never lie to USCIS.
-
You can get a certification from the Florida Dept of Vital Statistics.
-
You might have trouble leaving or entering Crimea. My wife's friend is from Crimea, was visiting her mother in Ukraine and now is stuck in Ukraine because she was turned away at the border by Ukrainian border guards.

-
You can call a local title company, should be no need for an attorney. It's a very simple thing. (I'm a real estate broker in Florida).
-
She needs a UK visa. it's easy to get if she has a green card. Go to: https://www.gov.uk/browse/visas-immigration/short-visit-visas
-
And refer to the instruction page, it's really helpful. www.uscis.gov/sites/default/files/files/form/i-129finstr.pdf
-
What part of Ukraine are you from?
-
My wife is Ukrainian and has been watching everything in English and Ukrainian connected with this protest. She has seen and heard nothing about martial law.
-
-
There is a free app you can get for your phone or tablet also.
-
You should be there about 15 minutes before that time.

It took about 2 1/2 hours from check in. Tanya had a Judicial Ceremony because she wanted to change the spelling of her name from the Ukrainian version to the Russian version. So I'm not sure if the Administrative Ceremonies take more or less time. The check in took about 1 1/2 hours and the actual ceremony took about 1 hour. There was a ROTC color guard from a local high school, then a nice singing of the national anthem from a student of a local college. The Judge spoke and during his speech said there were 50 applicants that day representing 25 different countries, then a guest Judge spoke. Then the Oath of Renunciation and Allegiance. Then he welcomed all the new U.S. citizens and everyone applauded. Very nice ceremony. Afterwards they had cookies, fruit and coffee in the waiting room along with a professional photographer because no one is allowed to bring cell phones or cameras into a federal courthouse. (This might not be the case for an administrative ceremony, if it's not in a federal courthouse.)
I'm glad this visa journey is over. It's been said so many times before, but I feel I need to say it again, The guidance, advice and support from everyone here on Visa Journey is something very special. I can't think of a more useful website, and freely given to everyone! Thanks all!!!

Tanya is a U.S. Citizen!!

This might slow the Ukrainian government but has little to do with the visa process since it's a U.S. government issue. the only things you need from the Ukrainian authorities is the police certificate, which she or (he) can get in the home oblast and the medical exam in Kiev.
Once the petition hits NVC it should be on it's way to Kiev in a few days unless there is a problem with your petition. Make sure you fill out the DS-160 online, call NVC and get your KEV number (or wait for the letter), read the instructions on the Kiev embassy website, have your fiance pay your visa fee at the bank, and then make your appointment for the interview.
You have time to do all of this. USCIS will not extend the dates on your petition however it does say the the consulate and do it under certain circumstances but I wouldn't test this if it were me.
-
The answer is on the instruction page. if you read it, you would know.
-
It means just that. What was your last job outside the USA.
-
You really need to read the guides and the instruction pages for I-29f.
-
It means if you get your mail at a house that you do not live at, what is that persons name. If you live at, or receive mail at the address that you have on the petition, then leave "in care of" blank. It does not apply to you.
-
No it will not be any faster.
Right now these K visas are flying through the system. In my time here (over 3 years) I don't remember a time when the average wait was less than now. Just follow the guides and make sure your petition is correct before you send it.
-
That is correct, you only need to write your new name on the form. They will ask you at the interview if the information is accurate. They will also tell you that once you say yes there is no turning back from it.
-
The link in the previous post is not the correct site for Obamacare. The correct link is: https://www.healthcare.gov/
-
The federal site is functioning now, I just signed up.
