Pretyme: Well, right now there's around a seven and a half year waiting period, so May 2021? The dates will shift a little along the way. You can monitor the cut-off dates at http://travel.state.gov/content/visas/english/law-and-policy/bulletin.html . |

thebenna: If you wish to continue with the case, you should contact NVC and ask them to reinstate the case. |

hello visa officer. I am a Nigerian got married to us citizen. me and my wife wants to send off the petition but it looks like we having a small problem concerning the affidavits my cousin signed for us to be a third party to our wedding anniversary. in the affidavit there was a wrong use of words..like a typo error. my wife showed it to a lawyer in US the lawyer said it could delay our petition. the question I want to ask is that.. is the affidavit compulsory and what other documents do we need to add with our form i130 when sending it off to USCIS. thanks. |
Re: U.S. Immigration Questions: Ask A U.S. Consular Officer by VisaOfficer: 7:44am On Mar 19, 2015 |
mcaylife: This is just my personal opinion: I don't think you need to include the affidavit at all. We don't really take affidavits into account because let's face it, anyone can swear an affidavit for anything. In fact, if all someone has to show is a bunch of affidavits about something that happened in the past, that's usually a bad sign. Please review http://www.uscis.gov/sites/default/files/files/form/i-130instr.pdf to see what sort of documents they're looking for. |

VisaOfficer: even I already started the processing already? do i need to reinstate my petition? and what kind of letter that I will writefro them. even i already paid the IV fee? will the IV paymemt that I paid recemtly will be invalid/or cant refund? thanks again. |
Re: U.S. Immigration Questions: Ask A U.S. Consular Officer by VisaOfficer: 9:14am On Mar 19, 2015 |
thebenna: Yes, if the case is in termination status and you wish to reinstate it, you must let NVC know. |

Good morning VO,and thank you very much for the great work you're doing here,howbeit pro bono. I'm asking this question with respect to a brother who's fiance is a USC, and about filing for a fiance (K-1)visa. The question is that is it possible to do an engagement ceremony after obtaining the visa so that family members can be present,and then they go and have the white wedding in the States. And if that does not nullify the visa,thanks. |
Re: U.S. Immigration Questions: Ask A U.S. Consular Officer by cutemydee(f): 9:20am On Mar 19, 2015 |
Good morning V.O, Please I just want to ask if you have helped me with the investigation. Sorry for bothering you. Case number: LGS2014677037 |
Re: U.S. Immigration Questions: Ask A U.S. Consular Officer by VisaOfficer: 9:27am On Mar 19, 2015 |
Nochid: If the engagement ceremony is a traditional wedding, yes, it nullifies the visa. The visa is to be used by a person who is not married. It's not enough to be unmarried on the day the visa is issued; the person must still be unmarried when the visa is used to enter the United States. |
Re: U.S. Immigration Questions: Ask A U.S. Consular Officer by VisaOfficer: 9:29am On Mar 19, 2015 |
cutemydee: No bother, but the officer handling that case is at another office today and tomorrow, so I can't follow up until Monday. Sorry about that. |
Re: U.S. Immigration Questions: Ask A U.S. Consular Officer by Nochid: 9:35am On Mar 19, 2015 |
VisaOfficer:Thanks VO for your response. I know the issue of traditional wedding has been trashed time and again here. The family of the would - be husband are looking at having a small ceremony say devoid of payment of bride price and the paraphernalia of a 'typical' traditional wedding ceremony,will this be accommodated?or they should just forget about the entire idea,thanks. |
Re: U.S. Immigration Questions: Ask A U.S. Consular Officer by cutemydee(f): 10:48am On Mar 19, 2015 |
its Okay V.O.I'd wait monday is almost here.thanks for your help. |
Re: U.S. Immigration Questions: Ask A U.S. Consular Officer by VisaOfficer: 11:04am On Mar 19, 2015 |
Nochid: I think they should use the visa first, then hold the ceremonies. That way there won't be any misunderstandings. 3 Likes |

I appreciate your quick response. If i get married and have kids while this application is pending, will it affect the whole process? |
Re: U.S. Immigration Questions: Ask A U.S. Consular Officer by VisaOfficer: 11:21am On Mar 19, 2015 |
Pretyme: Yes. Unless your petitioning parent becomes an American citizen, getting married will render your petition invalid. There is no immigration category for married children when the petitioner is a Legal Permament Resident. If you are unmarried and have children, though, your children can be included in your case. 1 Like |
