Hello all

I am in the process of obtaining a K1 (fiancee) visa and have my medical scheduled for early in July, after which I will request the interview at the US embassy in London.

In the meantime, my company would like to transfer me to our US subsidiary (where I have worked previously) and will be arranging for me to apply for either an e-visa or an L1 (which I had before).

My question is:-

If I apply for an e-visa (or L1), will this allow me into and back out of the US even after my K1 is (hopefully!) issued? This would allow me to continue travelling for my job, whilst planning my wedding. i.e. would I be allowed to travel using an e-visa even after a K1 has been issued (which I realise has to be ‘activated’ within 6 months of issuance)?

Many thanks in advance of a reply

Hi VJ'ers

I need some advice on the validity dates printed on our NOA2

The NOA2 states that it is valid from 2/19/2010 until 6/18/2010. I have not yet heard back from the US embassy in London with my appointment date and I am concerned that the NOA2 will have expired by the time my appointment is scheduled. Can anyone tell me what the implications of this might be?

Many thanks.

Thanks again.

Hi everyone!

This is my second post, but as I didn't get any replies I thought I would post again. Maybe my topic title wasn't eyecatching enough!

A bit of background:

I got engaged to Phylis at Christmas and she (the US citizen) applied for a K1 in January. On Feb 19th she received the approval (NOA2?). I understand that this will now be passed to the US embassy in London.

So I have a few questions:

How long does it usually take for the London Embassy to schedule an interview?

I have 3 trips booked to visit the USA in the next few months (beginning of April, mid May, and then end of July - for a family holiday with 2 of my daughters) What happens if the interview is scheduled before any of these planned visits? Can I still travel on the Visa Waiver scheme?

In April we are thinking of buying a property (off plan). Is this OK?

Once we get married, can I return to the UK before I move out permanently? How long does it usually take from the date of the marriage, to receieve my Green Card?

Sorry for so many questions

Thanks in advance,

Kevin
