I just received an email saying the I-129F was finally approved after almost 7 months. Now that it is approved I have a few questions that I think you guys/gals may be able to answer.

1. I am in the U.S. military and since have been stationed back in the U.S. My Fiance came with me on a standard 90 day tourist Visa about two weeks ago. Can she possibly do the interview and medical and associated paperwork in the U.S. since she is already here or will she have to return to Korea to accomplish all of these things?

2. Will the paperwork/instructions that she receives be in both English and Korean or just one? Her English is pretty good, but I worry that something may get lost in translation and she'll have trouble getting everything done.

3. Has anyone received a K-1 Visa from Korea recently? How difficult is it to get everything done or is it relatively easy?

4. Any help you guys can give would be greatly appreciated. I searched the best I could, but there is so much information on here that I had difficulty processing it all. Thanks so much.

1) No, visas are only issued at consulates... consulates are only in foreign countries...

YMMV

She needs to go back to Korea for the interview and medical.

I think it will be in English. The forms are not that hard and she will always have you to guide her =)

Good luck!
