I did wish i would not have most people on here are more helpful then the service. All they do pretty much is have you do the papers online, they proof read them then tell you to print them. If you ask me it was a waste of 500 dollars.

Anyone used the immigration service providers? The ones who promise to do the paperwork for you? Just curious if anyone has and what the experiences are. Also, which is the best.

Mahalo.

Everyone here is a Immigration Service Provider. (Free of Charge) If your having a a problem getting what you need to File the appropriate Petition then hire an Attourney instead of a $269.95 Special on the web. You will find they will ask you to gather all the documents yourself. I konw it's confusing. Don't I know.

Members will send Links but, if you don't understand (like I did'nt at first) then get a Attourney

Kind of vague question, what kind of 'immigration service' are you looking for?

Perhaps I didn't word it well. I'm not looking for a particular company. Just want to know if they are worth the expense or if they provide a service that is necessary. Is it better to do the application for K1 myself or to hire these services. I still am curious what others' experiences are/were before I make a decision.

Already done that. Still asking for advice. I like to research and get extra opinions. If you have nothing to add, please leave the thread alone.

The ‘majority’ of people can and do file a K-1 visa successfully on there own with out any set-backs or denials, and some don’t! It’s all in the planning and preparations. One does not plan to fail they just fail to plan. With that said if you have the time to invest and feel comfortable with the process go for it! <br /><br />Some people’s time is more valuable or they simply don’t wont/can’t deal with the paperwork, they may have complications involved so they enlist the services of a (qualified immigration attorney) or visa service. If your one of them hire someone to do the job. Only you know your situation and if you can handle the job. Read the ‘Guides’ spend some time on the site and ask question!

Members will tell you No. You can do it by yourself. Red Flags (reasons for Legal Counsil) If your Criminal Record is Clean and have not Violated MAJOR Offenses then: You can do it yourself. Remember: there is alot of paperwork to submit with your K-1 or 129-F Petition. These Companies that Charge you will Require you get that information on your own and MOST dwell on your feelings and Emotions after you sign into a agreement with them. After that, you are Stuck. There is no guarantee's in Immigration proceedures.

Only you can make this decision. I found it a bit overwhelming and decided the Attouney Route so as to not take a chance. This is up to you.
