IMBRA RFE for K3

[hafiz 1]

Any K3's get IMBRA RFE yet?

[akatagirl 0]

No I have not recieved an RFE yet...are k3's supposed to get one? Sorry if that sounds like a dumb question but I was under the assumption that k3's don get one..there is just a delay in our paperwork due to all the k-1's that filed after March 6th.. Of course I am newbie and not as knowledgeable as others on here so I could be wrong...

well i am not sure if we(k3's) get one. I think we are on hold cause of the higher volume of (K1's). Well atleast thats my hope. I was just curious.

Any K3's get IMBRA RFE yet?

I have received the RFE today (July 1, 06) by postal mail. I did not get any prior email notification. Anyway, the form basically says that the information must be provided within 87 days or the petition will be denied. There were three questions that NBC asks the petitioner to answer:

1. Did you meet your fiance(e) or spouse through the services of an international marriage broker?

0 Yes

0 No

If you answer yes, please provide the name of the international marriage broker and where the international marriage broker is located. (Attach additional sheets of paper, if necessary).

______________________________________________

2. Have you ever been convicted by a court of law (civil or criminal) or court martialed by a military tribunal for any of the following crimes...........and so on (same thing as they are in the new I-129F)

3. If you have provided information about a conviction for a crime listed above and you were being battered or subjected to extreme cruelty by your spouse, parent, or adult child at the time of your conviction, check all of the following that apply to you.

0 I was acting in self-defense.

0 I violated a protection order issued for my own protection.

0 I committed, was arrested for, was convicted of, or plead guilty to committing a crime that did not result in serious bodily injury, and there was a connection between the crime committed and my having been battered or subjected to extreme cruelty.

Then at the bottom of the form, it asks for signature, date, daytime phone number, email address (if any).

The letter asks that if the petitioner has ever been convicted of any of the following crimes (mentioned in

I-129F), then the petitioner has to submit certified copies of all court and police records showing the charges and dispositions for every such conviction).

Now, it is obvious that all K-3s are surely affected by IMBRA, as I expected before. Those USCIS customer service people who repeatedly said K-3s are not affected, surely are confirming the misinformation status. For my case, my I-130 is already approved and NVC process is well on course. So with this turn around with K-3, even if I get an approval by 2-3 weeks, I think, my K-3 will not be any useful anymore, as CR-1 process will be almost done by the time I get K-3 approval.

I had begun a tread in the IMBRA section under RFE for K3, so that it sould have a topic for itself , but this is fine. I have a quewstion though if you are using the date the RFE was recieved or teh date on the RFE it self?

I recieved teh RFE on July 1, 2006......but....................

the RFE is dated June 28, 2006.

well i dont know what do you think is best

well i dont know what do you think is best

I would say go by trhe date on the letter itself, the date it was generated by the USCIS. But that is just my opinion.

[hafiz 1]

yes i agree.

its not good to rely on mail dates. the date on the notice would be potray a more acurate picture
