September 2018 I-129F FILERS
Kyle&Ana posted a topic in K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports
Hello Berries!! I thought I'd start the new September 2018 129f thread. Best of luck to all new filers Currently it takes at least 6 months to receive the NOA2 for I-129F. One of the useful tools that the US petitioner should sign up for is the USPS Informed Delivery: https://informeddelivery.usps.com/box/pages/intro/start.action. Update your VJ timeline so that others could answer your queries more appropriately. New site:https://myaccount.uscis.dhs.gov/ Once you have your WAC you can create an account in the webpage! Good luck and welcome to your new virtual Family! Feel free to ask !- 903 replies

Hello, My fiancé and I are currently going through the process of putting together the I-129F petition. We met on Omegle.com and since it is not considered an IMB to our knowledge, we wanted to make that as clear as possible to prevent an RFE. Since we could not find any Terms of Service, we just wanted to include the Privacy Policy and the Wikipedia article in addition to our explanation in the letter as follows: << I first met my fiancé online, on ‘omegle.com', which is a free online chat website that allows users to socialize with others without the need to register. (Please Note: omegle.com is not considered an International Marriage Broker. It is used free of charge and without the need to register. The service of Omegle randomly pairs users regardless of their location, origin, gender, or country of citizenship in one-on-one anonymous chat sessions. Omegle does not match U.S. citizens/residents with aliens as their principal business.) On this site, we chatted via webcam/audio and realized we shared many common interests and hobbies. On ‘omegle.com', We exchanged phone numbers in order to communicate via iMessage and FaceTime, which we still do today. >> Should that be enough of an explanation with the attached documents to prevent getting an RFE? Thank you so much in advance! Best, Kristen & Martin

Hey guys, I have a situation with my father’s name, in my birth certificate his last name is different than it is on his ID (the way it’s on his ID is the way I wrote it on the I-129f) and the reason is because our name is supposed to be written Beard but instead they initially wrote it as bierd which is wrong so he updated it (to beard) on his ID and that the way it’s on every identification document he has, but I’m afraid that this could be a problem since the way it’s on his ID is not the same way it’s on my birth certificate and I tried to have this corrected and they said that they can’t update that unless I update my last name(the institution in charge of the birth certificate) which I can’t do because I’m in the middle of the K-1 process, so my question is could this be a problem? Could the consulate officer think that I tried to use false information? And also I have my fiancé’s phone number registered as “my wife” in my phone could this be a red flag if I bring screenshots to the interview with this name? @Greenbaum

RFE answer sent on may 2018 still waiting
Lbto&Lbta posted a topic in K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures
Hello ppl I sent tru my lawyer the response to RFE on may and USCIS acknowledge its reception on May 21, 2018. RFE consisted of a letter of intent and proof of me and my fianceé seeing each other. As for the letter of intent, true I did not include one. My lawyer never ask me about it since it was implied in the petition but USCIS thinks otherwise. As for the "proof" I sent DATED pictures for each trip, a whole copy of my passport showing all entries, boarding tickets of all flights, evidence of hotels stays, phone receipts. Nevertheless we sent them anyway including more recent trips after my request. And yes my request was sent well after the two year requirement. I called USCIS of they have a term for answering my RFE response and the agent told to wait 60 days. Given my bad experience with USCIS nto recognizing my previous evidence of relationship I'm afraid they are delaying answers to RFEs on purpose. Has any September 2017 experiencing similar woes with RFEs? -

So I am a June filer and submitted my 129f on June 19 and got my NOA1 practically the following week. At the time I just graduated and had put down under, 'Employment history' that my occupation/s was a student and put down the start and end date of that event. I am now working at a real job that makes more than what is required to get my Fiancee and her daughter over here. Question is, Should I contact and change my employment history with USCIS if an option is available to do so? Or is it only relative to the interview in Manila? (I will have my parents co sponsoring as well just for peace of mind).

Are Stepchildren Immediate Relatives?
mgsanch509 posted a topic in Bringing Family Members of US Citizens to America
Are my stepchildren who are in Mexico considered IR? I have read on USCIS page and from VJ members here. That a child or stepchild is considered a child for Visa purpose but not for citizenship or naturalization purpose. When the children's i130 are approved and NVC forwards it to the consulate, after we pay all AOS (Affidavit of Support) and IV fees, they will be granted IR2 visa. Once they enter the USA they will automatically receive GC with no Adjustment of Status required. Could this be true? I'm USC and husband in the USA with CPR status from K1 visa. -
Next steps after noa2, bogota embassy
p squared posted a topic in K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures
Approved June 1st for 129f, received my Noa 2 and am curious about next steps (I’ve read differing steps and timelines so I’m hoping for more up to date advice). I am leaving to be with my fiancée in a week and will be there for 1.5 months. What should I be gathering before I go, and what are the next steps? I would love to be able to bring her back with me so any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you! -
Filed September 29 2017 to the California Service center. March 4th transferred to the Vermont Service Center. September 1 was notified to have my bio metrics checked at the local (Phoenix) USCIS office. Went today and they said they have never done Bio metrics for and I29F before. Is bio metrics near the beginning or the end of the service center process? Is it a new requirement? Why is this taking so long?

fiance's parents were close to my mom prior to our meeting
orionvt posted a topic in K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures
Would I have a lower chance of approval if my mom and fiance's mom were good friends for years before I met her? A lawyer told me if our parents were close that they would assume it's fraud and deny based off of that reason Also she's from Vietnam (high fraud country) -
Nvc says “ready”, where to pay fees and make appointments??
p squared posted a topic in K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures
Hello everyone, have number from nvc and case is listed as “ready” online. I’m out of the country so I don’t have the letter from NvC. I know I’m supposed to pay fees, fill out the ds 160, make medical appointment and schedule embassy appointment. Where and how do I do these things? The Colombian website asks me to enter email confirmation numbers to schedule an interview, I’ve googled a lot but have yet to figure out how to do this. Please help, I am hoping to be able to schedule the appointments when I will be in Colombia in the next couple of weeks. Thank you! -
Potential problem with petition package?
EliAnon posted a topic in K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures
Hello, Im kind of worried, but maybe I shouldn‘t be. I was laying here and reading about what happens at the lockbox facility. Then i realized I didn‘t put the name of the form,‘129f‘ on the check. Instead I believe I put something along the lines of, ‘K1 petition.’ Also, my binder I sent in isn’t marked on the cover, ‘129f’ meaning they have to open it to see the cover letter (and the check is on the inside cover). Does this really matter? The bind on the putside of the cover is marked, “—my name and my fiancee’s name — petition for K1. kind of worried, is this a big deal? I would really appreciate a reply! -
Hello I just have a quick question that needs answered, I did not see it anywhere else. Since both the Petitioner and the Beneficiary need to both complete an 'Intent to Marry' form to include with the 129f Petitioner's package. Does her's need an authentic ink signature? An original document? Or can she just print it, sign it, scan it and email it to me? Thank you very much!

Hello again! I am redoing my 129f and ran across a few questions that I haven't found to be answered. What if I move from my current physical address? What will happen and what would I have to do? (this goes for beneficiary as well) On the employment section, should I inform them I was and have been a student and fill it in accordingly? I am a fresh graduate at the moment, and my job experience is practically null at this point. Thank you to anyone who can help accurately answer these questions!

Went to my bank in order to get required evidence for 134 (1. date account opened, 2. Total amount of deposit over the year 3. present balance in all accounts. My bank, Wells Fargo, was able to give me an official printout that stated the date the account was open and the current balance. However, he said they don't have any way to show just my deposits over the year. He ended up printing 12 months of my statements for checking and savings accounts that shows my deposits and all my payments. It's a lot of paper. I can circle all of my direct deposits from work I suppose. Is this was everyone else does for this? Was there something I, and the banker, missed?

K-1/K-2 Passport Question
Don and Kathleen posted a topic in K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports
My fiancee has a Philippine passport but her son, who is 8 yrs old, does not have a passport. We have put her sons name in the 129f form. Still waiting for approval (received RFE 2-28 in the mail, sending the response Monday (took awhile to get the documents required)) My question is, since he is 8 years old, would he need a passport? If he does, what is the quickest way to get one in the Philippines? There is over a 3 month waiting period for an appointment to get a passport. She has never been married. Sole Custody of her son. Thank you for your time -
Point 62 of Form I-129 F: which Embassy/Consulate?
JMK_IT posted a topic in K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures
Hello, I have a question regarding point 62 of Form I-129F. My boyfriend, the petitioner, mailed the application today to request a K-1 Visa for me. I am Italian, so when he filed point 62 "U.S Embassy or U.S Consulate Requested", he wrote "Rome", which is the location of the US Embassy in Italy. Doing some research, I found out that the Interview process takes place at the Consulate in Naples. Should my boyfriend have stated "Naples" instead of "Rome" in point 62, or will USCIS redirect the application there? Will this affect the validity of our application or is it just a minor detail? Thank you very much
