Sneaky you! I feel as though I found the information I needed however I did not cross the AOS cost... uh oh?

I am still a bit confused of what I need to do at this point, or if it is primarily documentation filled out by fiancee. What do I need to send, can you correct or add to this list please?

-Copy of NOA2
-I-129F
-G-325A for petitioner
-G-325A for beneficiary
-I-134 for petitioner
-I-134 for beneficiary
(do we need 2 I-134's? One for each of us. If we do, can we use the same sponser, hence same notarized tax-returns?)
-Material demonstrating ongoing relationship.
**** As of right now, this is everything I am sending her. Please correct me!


Also, she needs to fulfill the IV-15 list. But currently under article IV-15 in the wiki, the external link for London takes the reader to a page titled 'THE PAGe YOU ARE LOOKING FOR HAS MOVED'. I could not figure out where it was moved to. I obviously want to figure out precisely what she needs to take with her so that we have everything.

Thank you!

The IV-15 (better known as 'the checklist') is basically just a run down of the items the previous Wiki says to gather, and its your way of telling the consulate that you, indeed, have all these items and are ready - and eligible - for an interview. It includes confirmation that you have completed the visa medical (or have it scheduled for X date).

You have to read and follow the breadcrumbs on the Embassy site you guys! It really does walk you straight through it.

Visa Processing by the Immigrant Visa Unit

On receipt of the approved petition from the National Visa Center the Immigrant Visa Unit will send you information on the steps that you are required to take to process the application, including instructions on completing the Instruction Package for Immigrant Visa Applicants. See "Instructions for Applicants".

(link is on the right)

Instructions for Immigrant Visa (K) Applicants Applying for a Visa in London
Notice the URL in the address bar: http://london.usembassy.gov/iv_15.html <---IV-15

The documents are linked on the right. All the steps of the process are linked on the left, including the medical instructions, the interview, the fees.. everything you need to figure this out.

-I-129F (photocopy)
-G-325A for petitioner (photocopy)
-G-325A for beneficiary (photocopy)
-I-134 for petitioner (you mean from petitioner...only the USC provides an I-134. Don't forget to include support documentation for the I-134 (letter from employer, a few pay stubs, or proof of assets, whatever you are using).)
-I-134 for beneficiary (no...the UKC does not do an I-134)

And because you didn't link to it, I have no idea what you were reading. I am looking at the wiki guide and someone has put the price right in there.

I'm sorry I am frustrated this week.. I know you get excited and all, but it really does feel like people aren't reading what is being put down in front of them. It's not just you, but I can not understand it for the life of me.


Rene, I have a question for you..
"-Copy of NOA2 (send her the original. Keep a photocopy for yourself)"

Don't they need the original NOA2 for the AOS and a copy to the interview? I'm asking, I don't know. But if it is the way you just wrote, include keeping a copy of it for the I-485?

We brought the original NOA2 to the K-1 visa, along with a photocopy of it as well. Neither was asked for, but we had them just in case. I was under the impression they had the right to ask to see the original NOA2 at the K-1 visa interview.

We had to submit a photocopy of the NOA2 with the AOS package.

For the visa interview, the consulate already has the approved petition. The USCIS sent it to the NVC, the NVC sent it to the consulate. Why would the consular officer need or want to see the approval notice that was sent to the petitioner? They have the approved petition right there in the case file.

For the adjustment of status application my wife submitted the NVC notice to me (the petitioner) that they had received the approved petition from USCIS. I never received an Approval Notice, and to this day the USCIS on-line status says that my petition is pending.

Regards, JEff

Meauxna, you're right. Many apologies for not more carefully reading. It was very lazy of me and in honestly I take advantage of you and the other posters generosity. You guys are great, but you should not be my source of information, but rather my source of help when needed! I do appreciate your service!

Rene... as always thank you for clarifying.

Default Re: Is this a problem?

Rene, below is your revised list of things for me (petitioner) to send fiancee (beneficiary). If you remember my first post in this threat, I did not make copies of the I-129F packet. Should I just re-do (fill-out) the I-129F, and G-325A's? Also, will it matter if the supporting evidence is slightly different? What will the consolate do with all of this information?

-Copy of NOA2 (send her the original. Keep a photocopy for yourself)
-I-129F (photocopy)
-G-325A for petitioner (photocopy)-G-325A for beneficiary (photocopy)
-I-134 for petitioner (you mean from petitioner...only the USC provides an I-134. Don't forget to include support documentation for the I-134 (letter from employer, a few pay stubs, or proof of assets, whatever you are using).)
-I-134 for beneficiary (no...the UKC does not do an I-134)
(do we need 2 I-134's? One for each of us. If we do, can we use the same sponser, hence same notarized tax-returns?) (no, the UKC does not do an I-134)
-Material demonstrating ongoing relationship. (send her the original and a photocopy, keep a photocopy for yourself)

No, don't do a new I-129F or G-325A. If you didn't keep photocopies, so be it.

It probably won't matter that the supporting evidence is slightly different than what you originally turned in. They probably won't ask to see copies of what was already sent.

It's more important to have updated evidence to take to the interview, which shows your ongoing communication and/or visits.

Rene,

At this point - I am under the impression that the only documents I should mail to my fiancee in Scotland, is an I-134 filled out by each of my parents, for her. And also, a letter disclosing my intent to still marry her?

The photo's, emails, travel-confirmations, can be printed out there, correct?

And she will take all of this information with her to the consulate, correct?

Yes, plus any originals of anything you sent a copy of with the I-129F, as discussed previously.

The photo's, emails, travel-confirmations, can be printed out there, correct?
Yes, unless there's actually an "original" of them in your possession. For example, original boarding passes from the flights.

And she will take all of this information with her to the consulate, correct?
Correct.

Default Re: Is this a problem?

My fiancee recently came across a link on the embassy page that said K-1 visa interview times are sitting on 3 months... She did not copy the link and I could not find it. I researched on here and visa journey and 6-12 weeks seems to be standard. Pretty disappointing for us...

As always - it brought up a few questions:
1. Is she able to travel into the United States why we wait?
2. Am I able to travel there?
3. Should we worry about the experation date on the NOA2?
4. The NOA2 came 01/11/2011 - approx, when should we vision the earliest day for a wedding?

Thank you,

Jonathan
