The I-134 form is the stupidest form you will ever encounter and I, too, recently struggled with all its nonsensical twists and turns. There should be a separate form for when a beneficiary intends to support himself. You don’t have to complete that ridiculous section 4 if the beneficiary isn’t supporting herself. I sympathize.

This makes one feel happy just to read what you went through. It is a very happy ending and thank you for sharing all the details of your journey. Your experience shows that anyone can overcome the red flag with the proper documentation and perseverance. I was not aware that the petitioner could accompany the K-1 beneficiary to the interview in Bogota.

I was hoping that somebody would answer my question instead of dump irrelevant general information.

My fiancé has an appointment for biometrics with the ASC on Monday morning at 7:00 and the consular interview is the fooling day. I want to know how long that biometric appointment will take to know if she will have time to leave there and collect her sealed envelope with her medical exam results from the doctor's office.

You were smoked at your interview because you didn’t prepare for it. You should have had a lawyer in the first place. Gather all your evidence and recall what you told them at the green card interview so they don’t bust you out again,

Now the medical exam is scheduled for 7 July, the ASC appointment for 17 July and the consular appointment on the 18th. How long does the doctors office take to prepare the packet? How long does the ASC take for the biometrics?

My attorney completed the DS-160 and obtained the confirmation page. Now we can go online and schedule the visa interview with the embassy. However, there is a conflict between the recommended timing between the medical exam and the interview. The Bogota Embassy guide posted here states the medical exam should take place 3 days before the interview but the packet that the embassy sent recommends that the exam be scheduled two weeks before the interview. Can anybody shed some light on this discrepancy?

Our K1 petition filed on August 2021 was approved on 11/7/22; it was received at the NVC on 12/20/22 and sent to the Embassy in Bogota on 1/31/23. The Embassy sent email to me and my attorney on 2/10/23 asking for my fiancé's email address to send her correspondence. My attorney's paralegal told me that she filed the DS-160, finishing around 2/23/23 and told us that the Embassy would be sending an appointment letter soon. This is in conflict with the Packet of instructions 3-4 that the Embassy sent, which states that the beneficiary should log onto the site after the DS-160 is filed and pay the fee, schedule the fingerprint appointment, the interview appointment and the medical appointment. Your VJ site on Bogota states to schedule the medical appointment 3 days before the interview however the Embassy states that the medical appointment should take place 2 weeks before the visa interview. Did the paralegal drop the ball by telling us to wait until the Embassy schedules the visa interview appointment or should my beneficiary have gone online right after the DS-160 was filed and schedule the appointment(s)?

So I sent the Embassy my fiancé’s email address last Friday and to date She has not received an email from them.

I received the following email from Bogota Immigrant Visa Unit | Consular Section Embassy of the United States Calle 24 Bis # 48-50, Bogotá, Colombia +57-601-275-2000 | IVBogota@state.gov https://co.usembassy.gov/visas/immigrant-visas/ rg. SENSITIVE BUT UNCLASSIFIED Is it time to submit the DS-160?

When should my fiancé complete the DS-160 form? Now, or after the Embassy receives the packet?

We received our approval of the I-129 on 11/8/22 but have not received anything from NVC. I read that they don't have a telephone number any more. How do you write them and what do you use as a reference?

Interesting. But why would anybody ####### their K-1 Visa by transferring medical care to the home country? That makes no sense.

My plan will not cover a fiancé, only a spouse. How would one seek coverage for a fiancé prior to marriage?

What documentation should one need to provide if they are under treatment for depression and anxiety that is not severe and is under control.

This is the stupidest form ever. I had a world of trouble reading and understanding it back and forth beneficiary, petitioner, etc., They need to make it simpler.

What if they reject the old form?

The fact that USCIS keeps pushing the goalpost forward prevents you from filing a case inquiry with them and insulates them from scrutiny - to an extent. As long as you exhaust your remedies you could have someone file a Petition For Writ of Mandamus. Then USCIS will have to hire a lawyer to defend it and usually they will decide the petition then.

My fiance and I have met 6 times in the 14 months since filing the I-129F petition, which was approved the other day. These are documented in the package for her K-1 Visa interview. One meeting did not take place. We planned to meet in Cancun, Mexico. Sadly, Mexican immigration denied her entry, stating that the hotel reservation was not in her name. They returned her to Colombia the same day, after stealing the cash she had in her purse. I returned to the US the next day. Her passport has and exit stamp and an entry stamp on the same day. Do we need to explain that?
