Hey, just wondering if anyone can help. My fiance and I applied for a fiancee VISA after calling USCIS and being told we had to have one to get married. We are not planning to have him move to the US for another year and a half. He and I have to move to Australia for a year so we are planning to get married this July. Our I-129F was just approved yesterday. We are getting married without the VISA (since he will not be staying in the country), and were wondering how this might affect our application for a K-3 in a years time. Everytime I call USCIS, the lovely customer service agents know less than I do and can't ever answer my questions. Before calling to talk with yet another Immigration Officer I was wondering if someone else out there might have a suggestion or answer.

Thanks!

Gwen

shouldnt affect your K3 when you DO decide to move back..you should let the service center know you are withdrawing the application for K1 due to your circumstances changing - you can explain you the USC are leaving the USA for a year - you can DCF from Australia I belive.

It shouldn't affect your future visa... if you're both going to live in Australia for the year you can file for a DCF when you want to come back and you won't need to wait for the K3 visa either.
