Evidence of Support

[Rich87 0]

Hi guys,

I stumbled across the website tonight, it's been really useful and cleared up a lot of questions I had about the K-1 Visa process. I currently live in England and my fiancée lives in the US. We've been together two and a half years and engaged for 4 months, with plans for myself to move over there.

We want to start the process soon. It seems that we have almost everything covered (in regards to evidence of relationships, fees, etc), however I just have a few confusions over the Evidence of Support section.

Basically the current, general situation is this. I'm 25, I've been in full-time work for the past 6 months on a steady £15k salary (however that will be going up in the next few months), as well as £7k in savings currently (and obviously continuing to save over the processing time). My fiancée is 23, finishing university early next year and currently in part-time work at the same time as studying. She has never been on benefits or financial state help. Her parents are both in full-time work and earn salaries.

I was just generally hoping if this is a standard situation to be in, and looking for any general advice that I could take on board - I guess I'm classed as a newbie! I'm aware that we're probably seen as a 'young' case! However speaking to a lady on the plane from the US who went through the same scenario not too long ago, she assured me that we'd be okay and it's not too daunting!

Any advice would be much appreciated.

Thanks!

Rich

Being from the UK the embassy there has a different set of rules then some other countries, be good to post this question in the UK sub-forum as you will get a wealth of info there.

The Petitioner will be the one that has to meet the financial guidelines (for the most part,being UK there are so variances), but she can get a co-sponsor such as her parents.
