I-129F/K1 Request For Evidence: What's your experience?

[CANbirdUSman 11]

From VANCOUVER: (I-129F / K1-Visa applicant)

Checked my case status on the USCIS site today, the update read, "On April 11, 2012, we mailed "a notice requesting additional evidence or information in this case..." That notice goes to Hawaii, my fiances address. He's working on a ship, out in the Gulf of Mexico until April 25th. (He's got family there that can scan the notice, and mail it to Canada if need be, so no problem there).

So, what's your experience been? Hoping to hear from people that have recently been through this.

Happy Journeys!

I-129F approved. RFE decision made in 6 days.

They do prefer the boarding passes, since you can technically purchase a ticket and then not travel, but if you can match the reciept up with the passport stamp then that will solidify the evidence a bit.

Good luck

Thanks, I got approved today.

Could be any number of things. When he gets the letter, it will specify what you need. I had one and it was for more evidence of the "LAST" meeting we had. Weird. Anyway, we didnt have anymore than what we had ALREADY sent, so we re-sent what we gave orgianlly and extra reciepts of credit card transactions of the visit. They also asked us to send letter of how we met. So USC wrote a 1 page letter of our journey and had it notorized. (was only 5$ to have it done)

We got our NOA2 10 days after mailing RFE in.

Thanks for the advice.

My I-129F got approved. 6 days for the USCIS decision.

Have the 'circumstances of meeting' & both 'letters of intent' notarized gave us piece of mind. Although it's not mandatory, we felt better seeing the Notary Public, to get things notarized. And she even included copies for us. Cost us $50 for 3 in Vancouver. ($35 for 1).

The office we went to was the closest, & we got an appointment last minute. The timing critical because my fiance was only in Vancouver for a 2 week period, and wouldn't be back until July, past our RFE deadline.

AMEN we're moving on to the next step
