WOOOHHOOOOOO!!!!!! FELICIDADES!!! Tell your Man to pack his things and get ready for his family!!!!!

Visa en Manos ahorita!!!!

~ Jan ??,2013 ~ Service Center ~ Vermont I-129F Packet sent

NOTE: Actual sent date unknown due to lawyer negligence - I delivered ALLForms and PAID Lawyer on Nov 7, 2012 - Lawyer kept saying he sent the packet and USCIS must have lost it. When in reality he failed to send the package and only a new copy to USCIS after I made a legal written demand giving him 10 days to perform or return ALL monies paid to him, due to "non-performance".

(IMO it's better to save your money for visits to or from your Fiancé and just fill it out yourself using the K-1 Guide on VJ and Senior Members... They Rock!!!)

Congratulations!!!!!!!

They don't always request a DNA test. My fiance and I had a complicated case and he messed up a lot of the questions. If the consular officer suggest you have a DNA test taken they will give you a list of approved labs to have it done, Clinica Abreu does not do DNA testing for the Embassy. Also, the Embassy will not accept any DNA test that you hand in your self, and the labs will not send in DNA results to the Embassy if they have not requested it. I hope that help and made sense!
