    Did biometrics today - I had 2 appointments as I mentioned in my above comment, it went well (will go into detail due to the weird situation of having I765 filed online and seems separate processing) USCIS ASC Alexandria (Virginia), super busy, first app was 1pm, arrived at 12:45. Huge line and wait, first lady checked my docs and sent me to second line, second line the employee reviewed my docs took my ID and stamped my appointment notices - both of them, giving me a number to wait for that number to be called then proceed to the worker to get my prints done etc. After almost 2hr wait (super busy), made it clear I had 2 appointments, she took 1 set of fingerprints but 2 pictures, 1 signature (assuming signature and prints just attached to both apps), after getting in car both I765 and I485 statuses updated to "Case Is Being Actively Reviewed By USCIS" (assuming normal/automatic after biometrics completed. Fingers crossed for a speedy EAD approval

    The online form process will prompt you with what to upload, it has separate sections for each required document and specifies what they want. My experience, I uploaded: I765 form Marriage certficiate Appointment for biometrics i485 Receipt notice for i485 My approval notice for my k1 visa My visa page in my passport My passport identification page My latest i-94 record of entry My 2x2 passport photograph Additional note: My i765 and i485 had 2 separate biometrics notices - what I did was rescheduled i765 biometrics to the same day as the i485, just 1hr apart. I have seen some posts state double biometric apps you can attend 1 of them but bring both notices, and only have to do one, then other posts contradicting this, and as our location for closest centre for biometrics is quite a far journey, we decided that in the off chance we have to do both biometrics, would rather do it sane day and wait around a bit between the 2 apps (1hr apart) rather than have a 2nd day my husband has to take off work, drive all the way there etc. I will ask the people taking my biometrics what I can do / whether I can just do 1 or if I need to stay to do the 2nd.

    It is because there are 2 ways to file online "File form online" and "file online PDF" (c)(9) category are only able to file online PDF (latter option) vs filling out the form online (former) Found this out myself first hand after having issues with USCIS; filed i-485 and i-765 concurrently but only received case number and receipts for i-485 yet no rejection notice for i-765, after looking into it USCIS advised me to refile. After deciding to file online since I now had my OAC and account set up, I did successfully e-file for my (c)(9) based i-765. Was annoying submitting several pdfs to a temperamental upload system but was successful none-the-less. The more you know! To the OP: yes you can file i-765 online with an already received i-485, it requires you to include your i-485 receipt notice within that application though.

    Be prepared for more of a 40-50 day wait just for your case to get sent to the Department of State. These stages are extremely delayed. Research your embassy and what documents it asks for, I would say be aware of preparing these if you want them to be dated closer to the interview I'd hold off because the interview is still several months away. If you live or work in Canada, it can be Montreal *only Canadian embassy that does k1* but you can change it to Philippines if you want. Be aware this forum has several threads about Montreal Embassy being widely known for significant periods of administrative processing and delays. (Search ds-5535) 3. Yes any country you've lived in longer than 6 months. So Philippines and Canada if you've lived in both for over 6 months. 4. As long as you have some form of it you'll be fine - original or photocopy. I'd recommend scanning it so you don't lose or misplace it.

    Same here, I misread and thought they were naturalised. Thank you to @EatBulagafor the info & correction.

    I 2nd this, we're still undergoing the k1 process and if I could re-do it I would definitely go spousal visa. But particularly in your situation (OP) I would say go the spousal route simply because it would make things *less* complex rather than applying for another k1. That's just my opinion, I know a lot of people here will recommend spousal over k1 anyway. As Edward said, it's a higher bar than the k-1, less expensive, no adjustment process and being able to work and travel straight away is a huge benefit.

    Congratulations. Please fill out your visa timeline so that it can be useful to other people

    In this situation, have you considered marrying and going the spousal visa route? It doesn't eliminate the potential scrutiny but in these circumstances it might be more appropriate or "better" for you considering a previous k1 with you as the petitioner/sponsor has happened. All the best!

    Usually, the embassy correspondence lists the evidence required. As most countries will ask for this (and some countries even want to see more evidence regarding the i-134 - it really is embassy dependent) it's recommended to bring the tax transcript regardless of country. Better to have something that is listed as required evidence, and not need it, than to not have it, and they ask for it. (Not to mention the i-134 instructions lists this as one of the forms of evidence) In addition, most embassy will send (either via email, physical letter or their website) the list of documents that they require (again, this can vary from country to country, but most of them will say I-134 and evidence). Some countries are known to not ask for it, or have a less chance for the officer to ask for it, but every officer is different and it's better to have it than to not have it and they ask for it. Regardless; many say the focus in general is on current income, but there are so many countries on here you can read interview experiences' for that state they were asked for the tax transcript.

    Easiest way to see others' timeline on here in relation to interview is, go to immigration timelines, filter by country - Canada, click advanced search then sort by interview date descending. Then you'll see all the dates; noa2, nvc, embassy and interview date. Edit; upon doing this myself for Canada seems as if the average / shortest you can see is just under 2 months between Consulate received to interview date.

    Same here, contacted USCIS and they told me a worker just used a generalised approval template, and that all i-129f / k1 go to NVC then the embassy and to ignore the generic template that didn't reflect the actual k1 process. My case also went from approved, to sent to DOS, through NVC then arrived at embassy.

    Wow, I never actually knew this. It's actually terrible an organisation can do that. But then again there are only limited sources that can actually do something about their obscurity and inefficiency, and even when you contact Congressmen or senators, they usually accept any generic response USCIS provides. I never knew they hid data like that, thank you for sharing, but sorry that happened to you and others. Either way it's really terrible USCIS is able to do that type of thing without any consequences or accountability.

    If you file when in the U.S, then you would answer those questions because it is applicable to you, because at the time of completing the form, you are in the U.S. If you are filing when in the U.S, and requires the i-94, then include the i-94 to show your entry. As, at the time of filing, your i-94 shows the entry, and you are in the U.S so it's accurate at the time of filing. Edit: if you're really worried about it, then you can always use the extra pages to include an explanation and just say you're leaving on X date.
