  1. The decision on the DS160 application is what is required for visa issance. A K1 is interviewed by the immigrant visa unit but is issued by the non immigrant visa unit. Typically the only reason for the file to transfer from immigrant to non immigrant is for visa issance
  2. Since it has changed to nonimmigrant status means the interviewing consular officer has made his/her decision and it should only be pending administrative process of assembling the file and printing the visa.
  3. BTW, the above pertains to immigrant visas not K1 and regardless even if it did pertain to K1 it is to late as the petition has already been sent by NVC.
  4. They ignore that field and send it to the country of current residence. What is the eligibility for Casablanca? Nationality?
  5. There are pros and cons to either visa type and speed to visa is only one and in my opinion not a very important one. If speed to being able to work, drive, gaining permanent residency ( by sometimes several years) are important, then the visa choice is obvious.
  6. If you put it on then you incur an obligation to provide some sort of civil document confirming said change. With that i think you understand the proper course of action.
  7. Firstly it is the I129f not 192f and no you are not royally effed.
  8. You can also get married now and he can file a petition for you to emigrate to the US as spouse. If the immigration attorney did not suggest this as an option then they are not much of an immigration attorney
  9. No. Domicile question only needs to be addressed for the visa to issued and has nothing to do with the i130 petition process or approval
  10. You can have multiple petitions/applications going on simultaneously. You can choose in the future which path you want to take without a problem. K1 are taking more than a year but is also dependent on Consulate where the interview will be. The backlog at some Consulates can be quite significant.
  11. I think it's a personal choice. You may find it very helpful to go visa the UK regional forum for London specific information and ask London specific questions
  12. Personally i would book the interview first and then once that date is known, book the medical. You don't want the medical done so far in advance that it severely impacts the expiration date of the visa when issued
  13. This is not an uncommon situation and Manila deals with it all the time. The US is not bound by Philippines law in this regard. If you will still residing in UAE at the time of the interview then you can have the interview done in Abu Dhabi instead.
  14. Petitions are filed in the US not in a foreign country. The US WILL recognize your UAE divorce for immigration purposes even if you plan on applying for a visa in Manila PS. This is the second thread you have started with the same question.
  15. U.S. embassy follows U.S. law and will recognize your UAE divorce for immigration purposes.
  16. Safer bet would be to read the Consulate instructions for guidance on the type of evidence they want. A tax return does not show current income and current income is key. Your best bet is to gather your current paystubs which should show your current pay rate and use that to document an annualized amount higher than the required threshold
  17. Only organization needed is that you know where it is in your "system" when asked.
