  1. Honestly, I don't understand why it takes so long. I work for the federal government and we're very efficient as software engineers, however we're contracted, sort of, it's a really weird situation. As you probably know Crazy Cat, there used to be waterfall, but the new trend is Agile... maybe some innovation needs to go into their workflow... I don't know, I did see where they were supposed to start speeding things up by the end of 2023. We'll see.
  2. Hey, while we're here, if you're sent an RFE do you have to pay the $535 filing fee again?
  3. I mean, I hear you and everything but I've talked to people who have never been married and no kids and it took like 4-6 months. I'm just saying. I guess I should dig around more on the site and get a better perspective. I will definitely take 18-24 months as an end game.
  4. Also, I heard about couples who were never married, no kids, and it was processed super fast which is the same boat we're both in. I am hoping and wishing it'll be the case, but I just don't know about the picture she sent me.
  5. Also, the Dept of Homeland Security should have data on my fingerprints already. I would prefer not to deal with biometrics part of this, if possible.
  6. A denied K-1 is sent back to USCIS to expire, what does that mean?
  7. The reason I mentioned the clearance is because it's still the Department of Homeland Security, and they're the ones who issued it. The CR-1 visa seems to require a marriage to occur beforehand.
  8. So, the picture we used was initially a digital photo, but it was the correct square dimensions. Instead of waiting 2+ weeks for mail, I went ahead and used it, except I did validate it on the Travel gov website, I forget exactly the URL now, but am willing to provide it if requested. The picture wouldn't validate while it was digital, so I took it to FedEx Office and met a nice Filipina lady, which was odd because my fiancé is also Filipina. Anyway, she printed out several 2x2 color pictures for me and cut them also. I brought the photo home, I scanned it and the online tool validated it as being acceptable to use. A little bit of her head is cropped out, her ears aren't showing, and the dimensions may not align with their 1-1/3 rules. My question is really how strict are they on the passport photos? I sent my only copy of my original passport photo, which I already regret. However, I know I can just visit UPS or FedEx and get one pretty quickly. Since then, I asked my fiancé to get a REAL passport style photo. She's going to mail that and her intent to marry document signed to me, so I'll have those if/when they're RFE'd, I just sent them a picture of her intent to marry, since I didn't want to wait for snail mail. Also, this is everything I put in my I-129F packet. Does this look ok? To Whom It May Concern: Please find my enclosed form of I-129F Petition for a K-1 Visa for Kate ****** *********, evidences, and supporting documents. I think that I should also mention that I am a holder of a federal government HSPD-12 Q security clearance, due to the nature of my job.
