@@lillucky4967 I was informed that the quickest processing facility is Nebraska (average time 5 months) and the longest processing facility is California (10 to 15 months.) When you mail in your application you have no control over where they will send your application packet. Of course, I was hoping for Nebraska, LOL Having watched MANY K1 application videos, I decided to send "everything" I had and could think of to prove the authenticity of our relationship, which was definitely more than the USCIS website seemed to require. I felt like if I gave them all I could, they might not need anything additional to approve the application. As the universe would have it, my application was sent to "California!" So, I readied myself for the long "at least a year" wait for a reply. To my utter amazement, my application was approved in "56" days! Perhaps the K1 gods were looking out for me! ...but of course, I am extremely grateful! My experience may be unique, but I am anxiously awaiting the next steps so we can prepare for a successful interview and begin writing the next chapter of our lives.

As a current uk Beneficiary, I believe that a UK ACOS police certificate UK 'copy' has to be included in K1 folder and then ACOS updated closer to the visa interview in London embassy, approx 14 months later (or however long it will take) So it will be 2 purchases of this ACOS document. But I might be wrong!!!!! 🇬🇧❤️🇺🇸

As I said, this was a very thorough video, but everyone has to follow their embassy instructions once they get to that step. There was nothing negative about this comment, it’s just adding the disclaimer as it’s shown through the comments advice that scheduling and paying online is possible, when most countries that’s not the case. Yes the process is essentially the same from the start, but after NVC to Embassy, it’s different.

Great video, but the tip about Hep B vaccine isn't accurate. from USCIS Q. Certain vaccine series can only be completed with multiple visits to the civil surgeon. Am I required to complete the entire series before the civil surgeon can sign the Form I-693? A. You are only required to receive a single dose of each vaccine when you visit the civil surgeon. You are encouraged to follow up with your private health care provider to complete the series. Once you have received the single dose appropriate at the time, the civil surgeon can sign and certify the Form I-693. The COVID-19 vaccine is the exception to this requirement. You must complete the COVID-19 vaccine primary series (for example, 1 or 2 doses, depending on which vaccine, in adults; 2 or 3 doses, depending on age and which vaccine, in children) and provide documentation of vaccination to the civil surgeon in person before completion of the medical examination. For more information about the COVID-19 vaccination requirement see the CDC Technical Instructions. l Instructions.

Hello again my friend! So we're confused about all of the passport photos that they are asking for. The USCIS required 2 passport pics each, for the I-129 packet, so we did that. Now, we're working on the "Embassy Interview Packet" and they are asking for 2 more passport pics of my Beneficiary, so we went and took two more pics of her. Now, I'm looking at the "Medical Exam Checklist" and they want 4 more passport pics! Do the last 4 need to be different from the last 2 we took for the Embassy packet? What are they doing with all of these passport pics? lol Does my beneficiary need to go get 4 more NEW pics taken? Gosh this is confusing. Thank you for your help.

Actually I do have a question and it’s a bit frightening for me but I will ask anyway. My fiancé is from Ivory Coast but he came to Morocco to work however he did not obtain a legal status in Morocco and he has been here for about 7 years now . I just came to see him for the first time and I’m sure I will need to show evidence of that while applying , however my question is will that be an issue while applying for the K1 visa?.

I'm probably not the right person to ask as I'm not a legal expert, so it may be worthwhile consulting with one. However, my advice would to just be honest when filling out the forms. The forms don't specifically ask for proof of employment or status. All they're asking for is that you've met the requirements for the I-129f petition - and that you're in a genuine relationship who are willing to marry each other in the USA

This has been a pretty good overview video for me. Thanks for putting in all this effort. We're still waiting on our petition, but it looks like they're processing the cases from last March-May right now, so... as soon as next month I could hear something! So much to prepare. Seems like it's going to be a lot of running around from here on out, and a lot lot lot more paperwork (and money.) Something logistically I've been curious about... Often times, a lot of these documents require signature of both petitioner and beneficiary... except when you're base of operations is in different countries it can be a bit of a mess to do all this. It's been exhausting travelling many thousands of miles back and forth to see my fiancé, so I'm looking forward to this process being completed, but I'm wondering how others work through that issue. Finally, if you could update the comments of this video to include some of the helpful links you mention, it would be GREATLY appreciated.

Thank you! I'm no expert but we did everything in person similarly to you. If we weren't able to we would have just signed documents and then scanned & emailed any paperwork to each other.. or just mailed documents by postal service.

I’ve been flying a lot back and forth between Mexico. Shipping documents between here and there is shockingly expensive and the mail service is painfully slow here. Mail takes 6-8 weeks. If I want to use DHL or FedEx, it’s about $70 each way just to send a standard 8.5x11 letter pack. I started the paperwork together with him, flew back to the states to mail it on my next trip. Passport photo sizes, too, I struggled with getting the right size in Mexico, so we just did our own photos on a blank white wall and I had them cropped and printed at CVS stateside. They sure don’t make this process easy, nor cheap!

Hi! Question about the police clearance. I think I heard you say in another video that the beneficiary had lived more than 6 months in the US too and therefore had to claim records from there. What website did you use use? How do I know I’m using one that’s legit? Thank you for these videos, they’re so helpful!!! 🥰

Will both petitioner and beneficiary receives notification on the status of the application via email/mail even if we did nit include the g-145? Thank you!

Out of everything that I've tried to search online I truly believe that this video has honestly helped so much and am looking forward to starting the process with my significant other so i can finally be with him in the states permanently ! Thank you so much for going out of your way to explain the whole process and a less complicated way ! I do however have one question regarding the end of the video, I know that after you get married I'll want to start applying for my adjustment of status/green card whatever you wanna call it, but would i have to fly back to Canada and wait until it's approved or would i stay in the United States ? Oooor does that depend on the time left on the K1 Visa ?

Hello! First, I need to say: Awesome video. It’s concise and really helpful to everyone on this K1 journey. I have a specific question and I’m not sure if you’ll be able to help, but let’s try. My fiancé is American, but she has been living outside the US since she was a child. We met here in Brazil, where we have been living together for the past two years. We are now planning to move to the US and start building our family. From what I understand, she would need to be living in the US to apply for the K1 visa. Do you know if there is a way she can continue living in Brazil while we wait for the K1 process to unfold?

Your video is great! I do have a question, my fiance and I received the K1-FTP on March 12. We paid all our fees on line by March 28 and the status is READY. We are using a lawyer for the k1 visa. Our lawyer told us we have to wait for the welcome letter from the usa embassy in Sydney. My question to you is how long is this process before I should expect the welcome letter? I understand it all depends on the us embassy and the queue for open spots for interviews. I know the medical comes first. So, can you give me an estimated time I should expect the letter from the embassy? Is it 2 months or 3 months or could be longer? Ty again 17:01 for your amazing video! 17:32 18:05

Thank you!! I would personally write the date & place on the front of the photo rather than the back. However, I'm not an expert on the way they do things.. all I know is that on their website they mention that they scan documents into their system - so ideally you want to make things easier for them so all the information is accurately recorded.
