Applying for a fiance visa can be complicated. At VISANOW, we strive to make things as easy and as straightforward as possible. We have outlined some things to keep in mind as you are going through the process.
Check all forms
There are several forms that must be filled out completely and correctly for the K-1 Fiance visa application. Make sure that you know which forms are required, and read all questions and instructions. It is always important to check, double check, and then check again. You want to ensure that all the information that is submitted is accurate and consistent.
Collect all documents
You will need to gather all types of documents, from birth certificates to tax returns. Be certain that you and/or your immigration services provider collects all the evidence that you need to submit with your application. Review all your documents to make sure no pages are missing or illegible. Be aware of what can be submitted as a copy and what originals need to be provided. It is also essential to know what needs to be translated and how this should be done.
Prepare for the K-1 Fiance Visa Interview
It is a fact that interviews are stressful. An interview is particularly stressful when it can be the difference between being able to travel to the United States to marry your fiance(e) or not.
As the interview process is not standardized, there is no way to be able to practice for every question that will be asked. That said, there is one thing that each and every applicant should remember: preparation is essential.
Review all the information that was submitted in the application packet, as the consular officer will likely ask questions about you and your fiance(e)’s biographical information. It is also probable that the officer will ask you about your relationship, so you and your fiance(e) should spend some time reviewing important dates and events. Finally, it is a good idea to prepare some responses to questions the officer may have about your upcoming marriage.
After all that time, effort, and preparation you will be told whether your fiance visa was approved at the conclusion of your interview.
Best of luck!
