Lost passport with previous U.S. visa. Now filing for K1

[CrankyGoose 0]

Hi there,

I and my fiance are working on K1 visa. And right now our case is at NVC. I am a Thai citizen and I used to study in the U.S. for many years on J1 and F1 visa (high school and college). In 2012, I lost my old passport with possible both U.S. visa stamps (I dont quite remember if J1 visa stamp was on that passport) when I moved cross country. I reported the USCIS, paid $300 something and had my i-94 replaced. However, I didnt file a police report because I didnt think I needed it. Now that I am in the process of collecting all neccessary document before the interview, I realized that I must show all the immigration record of prior U.S travel or if lost or stolen, I must present the consular officer a police report.

Here is the problem

1. I went to the police station in Thailand to report the "lost" passport. They were unable to state that the passport was lost in the U.S as its not within their jurisdiction. They instead wrote that it was lost in Thailand.

2. I called NYC police deparment to see what they can do for me. Unfortunately they said that they cannot issue me a police report as I am not physically present in the U.S. and there ia nothing you can do about it even when I said I need it for the U.S. visa interview.

3. I emailed U.S. embassy in Bangkok and they said

"Dear Sir/Madame:

Thank you for your e-mail. Please note that we are unable to preadjudicate the case. Only on the interview date, the Consular Officer will make determination whether the visa is approved or additional documentation is required.

Once the petition is approved by USCIS, you case will be transferred to the U.S. Embassy abroad where the beneficiary (your fiancé) is residing for further actions. At that stage, we will be liaising with you regarding the following procedures required and, later on schedule, the interview appointment for the applicant.

Regards,

Immigrant Visa Unit

U.S. Embassy Bangkok"

Does anyone know if there is anything I can do at this point? I currently have

- all the issued i-20

- "photocopy" of my lost passport and F1 visa stamp

- i-94 replacement

- No J1 record whatsoever because that was 10 years ago and I was only 16!

Thank you!
