Hi all,

I had my K-1 Fiancee visa approved today and just wanted to say a massive thank you to everyone on these forums. I have read over many many posts giving info on what to do at the interview and what forms to include etc etc and I don't think I could have done this whole process without all the information and help on this website.

Thank you again and good luck to everyone trying to be with their loved ones.

Nick
