I've read that my UK fiance shouldn't have problems coming to visit me in the US while our I-129F is pending...but will I have any issues visiting him in the UK?? Will I need to fill in UK immigration on our k-1 visa application? Should I bring a copy of our application along with me?

Thanks!! :)

US Citizens get 6 months visa free if visiting.

I visited my fiancee in Tokyo numerous times while our 129F was pending. Heck, I event attended the interview and got called to answer some questions. I went back again and we did the POE together in the Citizen/permanent residents line.

So there shouldn't be any problems.

I visited my fiance twice while our I-129f was pending.

The first time was a bit harder than the second - but I think that's b/c of the guy who was at customs. He asked about my job, my fiances job, how much money I had with me, how long I was staying, how we met, when we planned to marry etc (pretty much making sure I was leaving the country in the 1 week period I stated). After answering his questions, I showed him my return flight itinerary and he let me through.

The second time was a breeze! I had prepared SO much for it - I brought letters from my employer, a copy of my lease, a copy of the I-129f (just in case they wanted to see ties)...the woman was very cheery, she asked me who I was going to see, I told her, she said "Welcome back to the UK, enjoy your stay" and let me through w/out even looking at my return flight info!!

It's easy-peasy! :) ...although - I'll tell you I was majorly stressed the first time...just the unknown!

BTW - no visa needed when visiting the UK. I believe when A came over from Scotland he needed to do some kind of form...ETS or something - I can't remember the exact abbreviation - but if you are going there - just have your ticket, passport and get on your flight :)
