  1. valinor started following Front Loading For Peru , Letter from Employer and Other Questions and K1 Visa next steps
  2. valinor
    Hello! I know I need a letter from my employer (I work for the government) stating various things. I asked HR and they stated that an sf50 should be sufficient. Is this true? It shows the nature of employment and my annual salary. Do I need an actual letter or is this fine? Furthermore, our i129F was approved in September. Will the validity be extended for a year? My fiancee is currently working on getting the 3 civil documents required for the Peruvian embassy. What else is needed? Birth certificate, passport, civil documents, approved i129F... anything else? A checklist of things required for the actual interview would be helpful. Thank you so much.

    I also had a name change and simply included the court order with the raised stamp along with the i129F and it was approved with no RFEs. Good luck!

    Thanks for the heads up. I suppose a longer wait at the NVC stage is fair considering we got our i129F approved in 3 months. Cheers.

    Thank you for such a detailed response. I asked my fiancée if she received anything yet and she said she hasn't so more waiting I guess.

    Hello my fiancée and I will be going through the embassy in Lima, Peru. We received our approval notice from USCIS on September 17, 2024 and have been waiting for the notice from NVC since then. How long should the process take to get notification and then for them to send the petition to the embassy? Also, what documents should we be gathering in advance so that we are prepared? I am in the process of getting an SF50 from my job and documents from the bank. Should I get anything else? And what about my fiancée? Thank you in advance.

    Yup, i-129F is more about the USC petitioner than it is about the foreign beneficiary

    Unfortunately I am still missing the required letters of intent. I did not think to do that (or the passport photos) on the last visit. I have read on this site that a wet signature is better so I was going to get all those things on this upcoming visit. I wish I had the forethought to get everything then as if I had we would be a year into the process! Hindsight is 20/20. I did mention the benefits of the CR-1 vs. the K1 to her but she said that she did not want to start a marriage with being separated to which I agree. I really do envy the people who are able to do the marriage visa and wait out the process with their spouse in the foreign country. On the bright side it just gives me more time to save enough to eat the increased cost of the AOS. Thank you for your input. I didn't think Lima was an overly tough consulate either especially if the USC attends the interview but I wanted confirmation. I will follow your advice and front load anyway just to be safe. In regards to the calling each other husband/wife, I made sure to let her know to not use that word because I have read stories on this forum where, even if said casually, it could be a death sentence for this petition.

    Greetings. Before I begin I first wanted to take the opportunity to thank everyone in this community for the invaluable knowledge that is freely shared so that everyday people like me have confidence when taking their first steps on the US immigration journey. Without this forum I know that I would not have the slightest clue on where to begin but throughout my lurking for almost a year at this point I now have a pretty solid grasp (or so I like to think) on the process and what to expect, and for that I thank you. I look forward to sharing my fiancée and I's journey with you all, and hopefully it will serve to help others who embark on this journey in the future just as all of you have helped me. With that out of the way, I had one question. My fiancée and I met in person in Peru for the first time in March 2023. I will be going back to visit her for a second time in March of this year during which time we will be getting the necessary things together so that I can send in the I-129F upon my return to the US. My question is this: Is Peru one of the countries where front loading the application is recommended? If so I would like to start getting all of that together so that the process of sending it in is smooth and easy. Thank you all for your time and input.
