For what it's worth, Boundless (and many other similar sites) has lots of bad/incorrect/outdated information.

We just went through this step. Yes, you'll need the K1-FTP (They might call this a "NOA" or "NOA3". Ours had been emailed to us from the embassy in Bangkok. I couldn't find an English copy, but the documentation requirements should be here: https://pcscenter.sbpolice.go.th/news/REQUIREDDOCUMENTS(ApplyinpersonforapplicantresidinginThailand)_25.html Note: https://th.usembassy.gov/visas/immigrant-visas/packets/ > Open file "Obtaining a Thai Police Certificate (Thai/English) Step 1 of the PDF file directs you to https://pcscenter.sbpolice.go.th/ and then, finally https://pcscenter.sbpolice.go.th/news/REQUIREDDOCUMENTS(ApplyinpersonforapplicantresidinginThailand)_25.html Also note: If you are at all worried that your police clearance certificate will not be completed before your interview date, you can request and pay for it to be expedited. I don't remember the cost, but it wasn't much.

Looks good to me. For what it's worth, we included two Intent to Marry letters, one from each of us. I wrote them both and had her sign and date her copy.

This is pretty terrible advice. Edited photos are grounds for rejection. I've never had a problem with passport photos from Wahlgreens.

Nope. the physician will offer any missing vaccines at your medical appointment.

Have you tried calling or emailing the embassy?

If he meets certain criteria, he can get a "Non-filer" transcript from the IRS. I agree with others... If his money is in a bank, it's earning interest and that must be reported. If it's interest from a foreign bank account, this also has to be reported to the IRS.

You will not need a co-sponsor, if you show your bank statements, as the I-134 /864 advises.

Respectfully, if you really did do your research, you would know that answers to ALL of those questions can be found at https://www.ustraveldocs.com/ph/

when you completed the DS-160, did that site tell you to wait for Packet 3 & 4 to be emailed to you? Packet 3 & 4 has the instructions for your specific embassy. Follow that.

I can't speak for Costa Rica embassy, but it's not uncommon to get "no appointments available" until appointments become available. We are scheduling through Bangkok embassy and we were checking all throughout the day, for 3 weeks, before 10 appointments got added for October. So, just keep checking.... a lot.

I think you will get good answers at https://talk.thethaiger.com/forum/94-banking-account-opening-foreign-exchange-transfers/

ustraveldocs.com, pick the country. It will lead you to the website to schedule the interview. Or...call the Embassy and ask..

The firat 3 letters are the embassy code. I don't know the code for Baghdad. I think there is a Middle-East forum here that could answer that question.

HI TJLAKA, You might ask in the S. America section: https://www.visajourney.com/forums/forum/96-mexico-latin-south-america/https://www.visajourney.com/forums/forum/96-mexico-latin-south-america/

When you filled the I-129F, did you include the child's information? If so, then you'll get a single case number from NVC.

I would put the date that you actually left the house. A gap, while you were living in RV can likely be ignored. A gap while you were travelling abroad shouldn't matter. Some people live for years with no verifiable address. I would put the start date of the internship. Just a single record for that employer. Provide the information as accurately as possible, but it doesn't need to be exact dates. Some deviation from actual dates is not unexpected. As long as your timeline is isn't full of deceitful omissions, you should be fine.

Glad to hear that it got sorted out.

Thank you. I hope your significant-other's family is safe after the earthquake in Morocco.

These appointments are now gone. I hope some of you were able to snatch them up!

Respectfully, you're probably the only person who has made this so complicated. So, I think you're going to end up being the seasoned veteran who ends up teaching us if your process works or not. We did everything in order, per the websites' instructions... We took care of the passports first and then did the DS-160s, set up my fiancee's ustraveldocs profile and then her son's profile on ustraveldocs (under the same account/email), then paid both fees, then entered the receipt information, then scheduled the interview (both my fiancee's K1 and her son's K2 were combined). I hope everything goes well for you.

We were just now able to schedule. Bangkok embassy has 3 K1 interview appointments available right now, for October 6th. We saw about 10 already get snatched up quickly. Get it while you can!

The ustraveldocs website or the embassy that you'll be interviewing at should tell you exactly which records and for how many years to bring. (Packet 3 & 4) For the US Embassy in Bangkok Thailand, we only need to provide the most-recent tax transcript. Though, taxes need to be filed for the past 3 years (when applicable). So, your fiance should have a tax return or an approved non-filing status also for 2020

You posted the answer.... Q: What does "Approved" mean? A: the consular officer has approved your application (subject to final processing by the consular section that is necessary to issue your visa).When that processing is complete, the status will change to "Issued". However, a final screening step must still be completed prior to issuance that could lead a consular officer to conclude that you are not eligible for a visa. If that occurs, the consular officer will notify you that your application has been denied and your status will change to "Refused". They're doing final processing and verifications. If everything is good, you'll have your Visa soon.

This is just an FYI for anyone else who might be in the same position. We are so close the being done with the whole process. We are currently waiting for K1 Visa appointments to become available in Bangkok. On September 17th, we completed the DS-160 forms (By the way..that was a SERIOUS PAIN IN THE _.since the https://ceac.state.gov/ceac/ website kicks you out if you pause for a minute to look up some information) After completing the DC-160, you get directed to the ustraveldocs.com website to pay for and schedule an interview. (Why that website doesn't have a .gov domain extension is beyond me). At the time, the ustraveldocs website was indicating that there was an available appointment at the end of November. (I'm guessing it may have been a cancellation that freed up a slot). Unfortunately, it took much of the next day to find a print shop in Jomtien willing and capable (incompetence was a factor) to print out the payment form that the bank would need. After paying for the interview fees (k1 and k2) and getting our receipt, per the instructions, we had to wait until after 12:00pm the next day, before attempting to schedule an interview. (I assume, giving time for the ustraveldocs website to acknowledge the payment Receipt #). To our dismay, that open slot had been snatched up (congratulations to whomever that might be). So here we are, checking the ustraveldocs website constantly, hoping that more appointments open up, soon. It's quite disheartening, after waiting 15-16 months from I-129f inception, to our case arriving at the embassy, then struggling through the <text deleted> CEAC website, to now get greeted with "No appointments available" every time we log in and click that 'Continue' link.
