Well, the decision is yours. Keep in mind though that your immigration process is not finished just with K1 visa. And what You are trying to do is kinda fraud. If it ever would come out you can be denied of your post-process applications, even citizenship of your future wife. I personally wouldnt start my journey with a lie. But I know people that kept it in secret and it worked. Just make it through the thread I send You and check out what people wrote there. Like I said. The choice is yours.

Thanks for the thread and your advice. This will be considered. I had no idea at all.

Wow, that's insane... well I guess this is something we will for sure have to reconsider then. Thanks for the tip and for the thread you sent me to. Very insightful 

Actually that was Patty who shared the thread, but I do hope you reconsider. I believe that no ceremony arranged to please the relatives is worth lying to the immigration.

Love reading everyone's stories on here!! I am lucky as well that my bf is only 2 hours behind me (he's in Texas, Im east coast Canada).  Still sucks because I work at 6:30 am so I usually talk to him until 12 or 12:30 and then need to wake up around 5:30.  I have a great boss so although we've only been dating since August 🙈 We have been able to see each other five times so far with another visit coming up next week.  With technology though I always say it kinda seems like we're hanging out on face time so I feel like we've seen each other much more lol. Hopefully we will all start hearing some news in the next few weeks

It looks like the 3 approved cases were all from 2/6, making it unlikely they were expedited.

 

Possibly good news!

Ohhhh. I did not even notice that? I assumed these 3 approved cases were expedited ones too!

I love digging into the data to find new ways to drive myself crazy!

I can only scroll a bit until my phone does something weird and makes me go back to the top 😩

I agree with everyone. Don't lie! You don't want to do anything to risk a rejection because you want to please everyone. 

 

If you want to celebrate with her family, maybe you could consider an engagement party or small ceremony. My fiancé is from India and engagements happen to be a ceremony in his culture. We had a beautiful betrothal in a church ceremony, followed by a reception. His family and friends were able to attend which is wonderful since they won't be able to come for the wedding. Maybe something you can consider

Hi fellow Canadian, I was just reading through this thread and saw that you are from Canada and your fiancé is from Texas. I'm from Ontario and my fiancé is also in Texas. Very cool. Just wanted to say hello and wish you the best of luck on your journey. 😊

I started scanning for 18-Apr touched cases but unfortunately it got interrupted so I will re-do it when I get home later today. But what I got so far had more approvals all from 6-Feb cases so yes, @Angel&Eric - they have started touching Feb cases for real!
