Consulate Review: Indonesia
Review Topic: K1 Visa
Event Description
Review Date : November 21, 2019
Embassy Review : Process went well. Communicating with the US embassy in Jakarta is quite easy. They are friendly.

Most important part is to provide adequate proof and documentation. Take lots of pictures. There was another who was filing for K1 at the same time we were. They were rejected. Apparently the US fiance didn't like taking pictures when they met in person. This led to a problem later when they want to file the K1.

The interviewer was quite familiar with landmarks and places in California. Not sure if they are from there but, it made the interview process nicer since there was no doubt about where we had both been together.

If you are applying for the K1, I highly recommend not only meeting in Indonesia but also the US. If you can afford it, it will greatly help towards proving your relationship. Take lots of pictures! If you don't like to take them, too bad, you need to suck it up and do it! It's very important if you intend to go through the visa process.

Also, if you are unable to make the minimum income requirements for the visa, have good sponsors. You only really need one really good sponsor. We submitted with two just in case. Get your best sponsor and be sure to state your case clearly.

And what exactly do you mean by "have good sponsers'? Just people that can vouch that you make enough or something?

*Notice about estimates: The estimates are based off averages of other members recent experiences
(documented in their timelines) for the same benefit/petition/application at the same filing location.
Individual results may vary as every case is not always 'average'. Past performance does not necessarily
predict future results. The 'as early as date' may change over time based on current reported processing
times from members. There have historically been cases where a benefit/petition/application processing
briefly slows down or stops and this can not be predicted. Use these dates as reference only and do not
rely on them for planning. As always you should check the USCIS processing times to see if your application
is past due.

** Not all cases are transfered
