Here's a big topic for discussion: Would love to hear everyone's thoughts:

I can word this a million different ways, so I'll just try to make it most simple:

We filed for the K-1 with a lawyer who handled our application. Since then, our lawyer has only given us grief and frustration.

I want to take him off the case and make my fiance (in Denmark) our 'agent'. Is it possible to take a lawyer off the K-1 application after he has already been listed as our representation? I certainly do not want to delay or uphold our application in ANY way.

Thoughts?

Thanks everyone! I hope everyone is hanging in there!

I am guessing Friday June 26th is when it should happen in earnest. Just my guess.

I can't imagine it would delay anything (just my opinion)... other than I believe (not sure) that the attorney has to send a letter or resignation of sorts to the USCIS. I agree with others that there are people that have done this before and would have better input... I suggest you post a new topic called "Firing our Lawyer" and I suspect many people would answer

Yes I just posted a new topic thanks Will be interesting to seeing responses...

MISSY- Can you please tell me where in Copenhagen your fiance went to change the agent name to his name so the Packet 3 would be sent to him? I want my fiance in Denmark to do this, as it is going to take so much time if the packet is sent from Denmark to America only so it can be sent back to my fiance in Copenhagen.

Any info you could offer would be SO GREATLY APPRECIATED!!!!

Thanks so much!

After I told you about Lars' experience at the embassy - he has since told me that I have confused some of the details. I am emailing the embassy today and I will report back to you with what they tell me. I don't know what to tell you right now except hang on until I get a response from them and I'll share it with you.

Missy, good morning! I saw you slumming in February yesterday *giggle*

[melanne 0]

Oh my gosh Missy thank you so much! I will look forward to hearing from you. I am feeling so nervous about this, especially since our Packet 3 may end up in our lawyer's hands (hands I don't trust!).

You don't need an agent for the visa process.

Is it possible to take a lawyer off the K-1 application after he has already been listed as our representation?

I don't see why not. His name is not on any of the forms and USCIS should be mailing everything they send to your address, unless he's got his listed. Look at the copies of the forms that have been submitted.

Missy, good morning! I saw you slumming in February yesterday *giggle*

BUSTED!! It is exciting and makes me feel good to see the February folks getting approved. You can't hog all the fun people for yourself!! ####### with the newest approval and the timeline?? Anyone else notice what a mess it is? The way I read it - it's all happening in a few weeks!

I don't see why not. His name is not on any of the forms and USCIS should be mailing everything they send to your address, unless he's got his listed. Look at the copies of the forms that have been submitted.

The Consular Section at the Embassy will provide K-1 visa application forms and instructions for the foreign fiancé(e) after the Consular Section receives the case file from NVC. It is not possible to request the forms and instructions in advance.

The forms and instructions are sent directly to the person listed in the case file as the designated "agent" on the case. The agent can be the petitioner (the person who filed the I-129F petition in the U.S.) or the visa applicant or an attorney. There can only be one agent per case. All correspondence on a case is forwarded to the designated agent

In order to avoid the unnecessary delay in shipping forms and instructions to an agent in the U.S. and then having the agent in the U.S. forward the forms and instructions back to the applicant overseas, it is often best for the visa applicant to act as his/her own agent (provided the applicant's English skills are proficient as all forms and instructions are in English).

All of that is copied from the Danish Embassy website. I just sent an email asking them to explain how to get Lars designated as the agent. I thought he already did.....but he says no, I misunderstood him and it has to be done by me. There was no place on any forms I filled out to designate an agent so.....I am really confused by this but hopefully the nice Danes at the embassy will help get this fixed. I'll let you know as soon as I hear.

I have no idea what's going on. There have been at least 6 approvals since I noted the numbers yesterday. But my number on Igor's went up 2 (not down). I guess more folks are adding timelines now that actually filed before us. The good news is that my estimated date isn't going back and back and back, like it did for a while

Yes, I have noticed that also... kind of strange... oh well... it gets closer each day and that is really all that matters
