I just would like to know if being a nurse will not jeopardize the approval of our K1 visa application. Will the Consul not consider a big deal that the K1 visa beneficiary is a nurse specially during the interview? I'd like to know about this matter.

I don't think so.. Cause either 1 way or another you can apply to come to America with your profession..

Nurse is an in-demand profession here in the US.

Incorrect.

USCIS and Immigration have a 5 year (Waiting list) on Nurses coming into the USA from a Forgien Country, It is called Retrogression.

Absolutely not... Please review the Manila Embassy K1 Visa Guide...

What's cool about being a nurse is that it's a career instead of just having a job... Kudos...

My wife is also a nurse (and a pharmacist). I'm on CR1 and not K1 but we're all the same. we will all be immigrant sooner or later.

Being a nurse will not be a problem during your interview. As a matter of fact, it will help you because the US govt knows you wont be a public charge.

Now if you're applying for a tourist visa and you're a nurse, I would say dont even try to apply.

I don't think so. I have a friend who's a nurse and she left via the K1 route last March. The pre-screener/CO even told her that she should be thankful that she's a nurse considering that at the time of her interview, her fiance was still unemployed and they had to request his parents to co-sponsor her.

They have a career fair here in NZ every year, and there is always a huge demand for nurses to go to the USA. I should think it would help you, not hinder.

I can explain it to you. But I can't understand it for you.

My fiancee ShaSha is also a Filipina nurse and she just had her interview on the 29th and was approved so dont worry.

In PI they have almost 1 million people in Nursing School this year.

Last year they had 600,000 plus.

In PI they are now lying to student and parent and telling them to go to Nursing School so they can go to USA and work.

Many new nursing schools are popping up everywhere in PI, it a new way for schools to make money.

Problem is : The reputation of PI nurses may suffer in the future with so many new school turning out poorly trained nurses. Nurses in the past from the PI had a very good reputation.
