K-1 newbie

[Lynda and Keith 0]

Hello , so nice to find an active board, and with such happy stories about the Immigration process. Makes a nice change !

My Fiance ( Keith ) and myself ( Lynda ) are in the process of the K-1 visa, we mailed I-129F Petition off January 30, 2008, and got first notice of receipt on February 14 2008, how nice Valentines day !

It really is nice to read stories and timelines for those who have gone through it, are going through, all at different stages. I had one quick question though, we have been getting the required paperwork together first notice he will get from the Embassy in London , as to what documents he needs to gather ,what will I have to supply for him to take with him AOS form I-864 or I-134?

Thanks , Lynda

Hi and welcome to VJ!!

Once your fiance gets to the embassy stage, he will need to bring with him his interview letter, the whole K1 package you originally sent to USCIS and (neatly presented..they like to find thing in order)! any photos with the dates written on the back of them if they are not already clearly p ost marked with the date, and also bonafide ongoing evidence of your relationship since the time you sent the package. As far as AOS I am not sure what forms are needed as I haven't reached that stage yet but sure others here will intervene and guide you.

I wish you all the best in your journey together
