Hi, everyone. As mentioned in my past post, I am new here so I don't how how to post in the Bahrain portal... I'm the foreign fiancé (Filipina) currently living in Bahrain. So, anybody here knows how to get the police clearance/ Good Conduct Certificate? Please advise. Thank you. And question for the general public: 1. I have lived here since 2018 (was 23y/o), do I still have to get Police clearance from the Philippines? I have read that I need that from the places I have lived in since 2016. 2. (For Filipino members) I have already my Certificate of NO Marriage, but I think its only valid for 6months (?). So, if it expires before we got the interview schedule, which when I would need it, Do i have to get a new valid copy? Or I can use the one I have now even if its already expired by then? Just researching on how to get all the possible requirements I might need for the interview. Cant say that I have OCD but I just want to prepare/know everything before we get the list of requirements even if it is still far. Given also that I am away from my home country and acquiring some of the documents might take time to get here in Bahrain. I have so many question but everyone has been helpful so far. Thank you so much.

This is great news then! We have mailed our petition last week and hopefully it doesn't take as long as what we have previously read, about 15-18months.

Thank you! Hope all documents we had submitted will be okay for now. cross fingers we got NOA1 soon. Unfortunately, we didn't have lease under both our names. So hopefully what we had provided will be okay for now. Thank you!

1. yes, we have provided that. 2. the letter we got notarized was from my parents, his father and a friend stating that they know and support our relationship and plans to get married when we got the visa approval. we had it notarized bcos we have been advise by rapid visa to do so. 3.No, we dont have a lease under both our names since I was the one who moved in with him and still have kept my own apartment. but we do have some photos together in his place with friends.

oh my bad. I am still getting confused on which term to use. application or petition. Yes, we submit letter of intent to marry as well.

Yes, we have provided my current address here in Bahrain. we have also sent this RapidVisa people a copy of my visa and National ID details here. Hope they have included it our packet.

Hi everyone! So, last week we have mailed of K1 Visa application and I know now that its is a waiting game. Anyway, I am already overthinking about the proof of Evidences we have summitted and hope that we get RFE. CHAT LOGS - We are not a very "texty" (if that's even a term lol) couple so there is not a lot of chat conversations to provide. The one that we have summitted doesn't really have a lot going on. VIDEO CALL SCREENSHOTS/ LOGS - We mostly talk on Video calls, everyday, so we provided some screenshots form that. PHOTOS - My partner and I lived together for almost a year while he was still here in Bahrain for work. So we attached photos of that. ENGAMENT - we don't have anything at all to show that we got engage as we have decided we will do a formal engagement when we visit the Philippines next year. BONA FIED INTENT TO MARRY - though we didn't have any proof of engagement, we have provided Personal statements from his father, my parents and some friends that was notarized. If we got RFE, hopefully not, what do you think they will ask? and do I have to bring copy of all the documents included in our packet during the interview? i know they will give a list but I tend to over prepare just in case.

Yeah, we are kind of feeling that way now with Rapid Visa. Unfortunately, we haven't done a lot of research about them and we on bcos they were recommended by a friend. My partner has already paid them and have already submitted the docs so we'll just go ahead and continue the process with them. Hopefully they will be much more helpful in the future.

Oh this is helpful! I did not know that. Thank you and yes hopefully not while we are on this process.

Thank you! Yes, I have a valid working visa here and am already researching about getting the Police clearance. question is i have been living here since 2018 (23yrs old) but I have read that I must have police clearance from the places I lives in since I was 16. So does that mean I have to get one from the Philippines too? Thank You! Yes, I can get that and I have a valid working visa here.

about that. We have summitted the application for me to get the interview in Bahrain since I am currently living here for work. We have already indicated it on the forms so hopefully they don't miss it

Thank you!. My partner is in the military and has high chance of being deployed at any time. And I saw one youtuber with the same situation and it did help to get their expedited. I was hoping we can do the same too.

does it really takes almost 18months just to get the Visa? or it can be expedited?

Hi. I am new here! Me and my fiancé is processing my K1 visa through the help of Rapid Visa. which is not being very helpful at all. After more than 2 months of processing/filing all the requirements they were asking, our Petition ahs finally been mailed to USCIS. Now, i know and have read that it takes almost a month just to get the NOA1 but did anybody here processed their applications through a the help of a third party also? did hiring someone made the application faster or not? I miss my fiancé badly and this waiting game is not doing me really well.
