Cuba exit permits and K1 visa
My Cuban fiancee and I are in the process of completing the K1 visa. I just
mailed out the initial I-129F last week.
I noted the following info at:
http://havana.usinterestsection.gov/visas_general.html
"The Cuban government does not allow Cuban citizens who obtain U.S.
immigrant visas or transportation letters to depart Cuba unless they also
possess a Cuban exit permit (tarjeta blanca). Cubans immigrating to the
United States are subject to an assortment of fees from the Government of
Cuba, totaling approximately US$850.00 per person."
That seems like a pretty hefty charge for a single piece of paper. Is this
an iron-clad rule that is currently being implemented in Cuba? I am hoping
to avoid some "sticker shock" ahead of time.
Anyone with up-to-date info on this Cuban exit permit?
