Oh ok, i got it now cause i was confused once again with all these stories. So yes, i'm the one that is moving to the States. I was just confused cause when i read the guide, at the end it said provide certified copies of all court and police records, so i wasn't sure for who it was.

Gotcha. :) Since you are the alien fiancée, that part's for you. You will be providing that at your interview.

Actually, if there is ANY PRIOR RECORD of the US Citizen, then the US Citizen needs to provide 'that paperwork' with the initial I-129F submittal. Usually, it's focused on felony convictions and 'VAWA-related arrests'.

It's not that a 'police clearance certificate' is required on the US Citizen, it's that all police records and courthouse records for FELONY CONVICTION and 'VAWA-related arrests' must be supplied on initial I-129F submittal.

Additionally, if the foreign spouse has been arrested and/or convicted, then the certified copies should be supplied as well, with the initial I-129F submittal.

Thanks, Coconuts! Just one more thing, this police certificate is it something the both of us need to have or just my fiance? Cause he's the petitioner and i'm just waiting for him to do all that. lol :P

The petitioner does not need the police certificates, the beneficiary does. And he cannot request those for you, you have to.

only you need the police certificate but you don't send it, you bring it to the embassy with you!

The fee is $455!

You will have to pay for the medical examination (I think it as 120 in my case depending on the country I think)

and you will have to pay for the appointment at the Embassy (around $130 but that changes all the time)

you don't have to pay anything at the Embassy (so no $350 or whatever) since it's a K1 visa!

This is wrong, wrong, wrong.

"Starting June 4, 2010, all K-1 visa applicants will be required to pay a fee of $350 when they apply for a visa interview at their country’s U.S. Consulate. The previous fee cost was only $131."

Sorry I was not aware of this change!

I came in February and just had to pay the $131.

I apologise for the confusion!
