I could have not done any of this without this helpful website so thanks to everyone who has helped me out and answered my questions. Well after a 221g for affidavit of support and more pics (it took 2 weeks after I sent the missing papers to get an approved visa) he whole process took 9 months approximately since I sent the i129 petition and finally my fiance aka hunny boo boo lol is coming to the US on the k1!! All I have to say to others is that its a long process but once you get an approval its amazing feeling! You feel soo happy, I felt sick, happy, nervous, and what not. But I just have question do they give him the i94 during the flight or where do they give it to him? Also what kind of questions do you they ask at port of entry? Anybody ever entered through Houston, Texas on a k1 how long did it take.. We have a connecting flight do you guys think 2 hrs and 49 mintues is enough time? We are traveling during the week in the morning so from my travel experience weekdays arent as full as weekends.. Please and thank you!

P.S P.S : For those who are curious a religious ceremony is not considered legal in Mexico! How do I know this? Well because when I sent the i129f petition I sent pics of our religious ceremony and got approved. When my babe went to his interview he was just asked for more pics with our family and the i864. I hope I help anyone who is going through this because I cant lie I thought it would cause a denial but the officer who intervied my babe said the officer said " Dont stress it just send me the missing documents and remember a religious ceremony is not recognized in Mexico." Good luck to anyone who is going through. I'll glady help out anyone :) !

Congratulations! Normally they give you the I-94 during the flight, otherwise have your fiancé ask the flight attendants for it. As for questions that might be asked at the POE, it differs. When I arrived into the States, all I was asked was when and where the wedding would take place. Here is a link to the Houston POE reviews; please read them and that should answer some of your questions :thumbs:
