k1 visa
geeciejay:
What documents do I need to bring to the US embassy when applying for the
K 1? I am free to marry and I have visited my girlfriend twice this year and
have saved receipts and have documented that I have met her. We have
know each other for over a year. I am going to her country Dec 26 again for
two weeks for a visit and to start this K 1 process.

This is an excellent website to assist you. Hey leaving Dec. 26th & asking for help Dec. 25th? As Bones said to Captain Kirk-I'm only a doctor Jim, not a miracle maker!
Buena Suerte!

You don’t apply for a K-1 fiancée visa at the embassy. You have to mail in the application to your designated CIS Service Center.Start by downloading Forms I-129F and G-325A (2) from the CIS Web site and carefully read over the instructions. http://uscis.gov/graphics/formsfee/forms/index.htmWhile you are down there, you should have her complete and sign a Form G-325A and get her passport photos taken. Also have her complete and sign a statement of intent to marry. If she has ever been married, you will need certified documentation of legal termination of any marriages. You will need those to submit with your K-1 petition. Also make sure you have plenty of photos of you two together.I would also recommend that you get certified copies of her birth certificate with English translation.If you have any questions after that, feel free to ask the forum.Ray

Ray , when you say certified documentation, I had married once,
now divorce (AW) and just have the court papers my lawyer sent
from the courts. Is this certified? She has never been married
before. I live in California what is the quickest center I can send it
to? I have plenty of video of us but only a few printed. Is this a
problem for INS? This is my 3rd trip in a year, is this not enough
proof we have met. Can I do the translation, since I can read, write
and speak spanish? Thanks Merry X- mas also SD Chargers blew it this season.

Can I do the translation, since I can read, write and speak spanish? You can if you're tough enough. See the instructions that Ray mentions, some where in there they tell you how to certify that the translation is accurately done by a competent translator. There are no restrictions that the translator be licensed or have a degree or anything like that.....I did my own, but there's a lot more to it than it takes to order a beer or read a menu. Don't try it unless you REALLY know what you are doing.....otherwise, your best bet is to have a friend who teaches it in college. Second best bet is to have a cop friend....if he isn't competent, darn sure he knows a 911 call taker or court translator who is.
