I think they might want to see them as photos, not through any digital device... But I'm not sure :/

Hmmm.. Same here, I'm getting everything ready for my interview, even though I haven't even got a date yet. I've put everything in a plastic folder ready. But just didn't know with the pictures If I could do that. :/ It would be the London embassy.

Isn't it too early to get ready for the interview? :D

I don't think we'll get approval before June or July at least! TSC is so darn slow, and they are still processing December files now... So I gave myself at least 4 months of waiting. And this is me being hopeful :content:

I try not to look at CSC approvals anymore, or it's going to turn me into an aggressive, stressful person :P I thought USA was a country proud of it's being equal to everyone, but I just can't see how they manage the equality issue here!

I need a shoulder to cry on and my fiance is thousands of miles away, ..... :cry:

Hah! Yeah.. It just a little early, but I have to see some progress or I will go mental (Lol) Even if it's just small steps :D

I think some will maybe get their NOA2 in June/July from March.. maybe one or two though.

Awwww! I know the feeling :'( If only TSC would get a bloody move on with these applications. :/

Haha! I know, I'd stay quiet for now :P

I was just wondering, What would happen if someone who has sent their I-129F form in and they go to the states but marries anyways, What would happen then?

I know they would lose the $340 filing fee, and start all over with another application.

From what I understand, you will not be allowed to take your phone in to the interview and need to check it at the security area. Perhaps US consulates vary by country, but I am kinda doubting it. Might want to check beforehand.

As the couple already shows their intention to get marriedby filing a K1 visa, it would be the worst thing to get married with a tourist visa before getting the fiance visa. The government never accepts lying to the US and misusing visas, bcs when you enter the states with a tourist visa, it means you promise that you're only visiting and will not do anything illegal (like getting married) while you are there.

I'd say never consider it!! I know it's hard but time passes quickly, let's all be patient!

Hah! I'm not considering it though, I was just thinking what would happen. I like to do things by the book and legal :) I usually think of stupid stuff when I'm waiting. haha! It's how my brain functions :)

We're thinking about October, November or if we're unlucky with the visa, December :D But if we're lucky with it, why not September? So basically, whenever possible! :P

CA is a great place to get married so I think it'll be amazing for you! :D

I'll send you message! I'd be sad if someone tells us to stop as it's off topic, so let's talk from there if you wanna! :secret:
