Perfect, that is very helpful, thanks a lot!

Thank you very much! This helps a lot. I think we will just wait a week before following up, probably we should have sent the Public Inquiry earlier, but there is not much we can do! Just out of curiosity, how do people get the Case Number from the NVC before getting the K1-FTP letter? By doing the Public Inquiry? Thanks again! Good idea, when we follow up, we will be adding that just in case. Thanks!

Hi all, My fiancée and I got our NOA2 at the end of February, but we have not heard anything since then. We checked in this website and the NVC is receiving applications with NOA2 of March 6th at the moment, so we decided to submit an inquiry form, as ours should have been received a week ago. They replied saying that they have recently received the petition and that the petition is waiting for data entry to their system, so they cannot give us any case number yet. They also said that as soon as the petition is in their system, they would send the Welcome Letter and instructions. However, we are a bit confused, when I see in this website that the NVC Receive Date Timeline is now for people with NOA2 of March 6th, does that mean the Welcome Letter? Should we try to follow up to see why we have not received anything or is it normal? Thank you very much!

Hi all, We just received an RFIE in our I-129F because we forgot to check the box in the acknowledgement of criminal records. They sent us a one page form in which they ask us the question which we have answered by checking the "NO" box (fortunately). So the question now is: is that all we need to do? Do we just mail that paper or should we also send the page we failed to check the box in, but with the box checked or even the whole package again? Just trying to prevent we dont have any problems afterwards and do the best response possible. Thanks!

Yes, we are aware of that, but we don't know what else we can possibly try. As a worst case scenario, we could get it denied but waiting for the permission to Work for the Beneficiary and submitting AOS again taking into account the beneficiary income. Would that be possible?

That is what we thought! We do have added many boarding passes as we have been lucky enough to enjoy many travels together, along with accommodation reservations. I hope that all is enough and the RFIE is just about a box we forgot to check or something like that. We did not add the passport stamps as the beneficiary lost their passport. We could just throw in the Petitioner's stamps to the country of the benificiary but it seems a bit difficult to show in one photo the stamp and that it belongs to the petitioner.

They sent the RFIE on 02/12 and we cannot ask for them to resend it until 02/26 apparentely. About getting a new job, that is difficult as the petitioner is currently in med school, so not the best time to try to find a full-time job

Yeah, the joint sponsor is not an option for the moment, that is why we are trying to see other ways. And no, we still haven't received any explanation of what the RFIE is for

Hello, My fiancée and I are considering the possibility of creating a joint account in the US so that the beneficiary can move their funds to that account for two reasons: -The petitioner does not meet the income requirements, so we would have to use assets (she fortunately has the required amount, but to play it safe). -We just got an RFIE which we don't know what is about, but in case they need more proofs of relationship, that could help as well (in case a stack of photos could have not been enough) However, all banks are asking for either a Social Security Number or an Individual Taxpayer Identification Number, which apparently can take months to receive and the extra hustle of paying taxes in the US before even moving there. What do you guys think? Would it be worth to create the account? and what about any recommendations in which it is easier to do this? Thank you very much!

Yeah, we would love to have a joint sponsor but unfortunately it does not seem possible at the moment. But thanks for replying Also for the AOS? Did it work? We have read it is even more difficult there with savings

Hi all, My fiancée and I are wondering what is the amount needed to get approved for the K1 Visa, we have read that is "income of 100% or more of the US Federal Poverty Guidelines". In our case, the petitioner is currently studying, so the income will be around 0. Therefore, we will use the Assets way, in which they say that is either 3 or 5 times income needed, so assuming we want to play it safe, should we have 3 times or 5 times the Poverty Guidelines? Also, has anyone filed with just assets or mainly assets? what was your experience like? Thank you very much and wishing everyone a quick and satisfactory process!
