ElCheAmericano comments on Need Urgent Advise, Wife's visa was denied because of place of birth

ElCheAmericano comments on Need Urgent Advise, Wife's visa was denied because of place of birth

HOLY SHIT BATMAN WE GOT IT She went to the consulate and explained the situation and they approved her.

ElCheAmericano comments on Need Urgent Advise, Wife's visa was denied because of place of birth

Here's where Venezuela comes in the picture She was born in Maracaibo, ok. So when I did the paperwork I put down that she was born in Maracaibo but has Colombian Citizenship since her mother is from Barranquilla. What I didnt know is that her Colombian passport states that she is colombian born in Colombia. And her birth certificate states that she was born in Colombia because I assume her mother registered her that way. But what I understand it is very common for some countries to say the person was born in that country is one of the parents is from that country. If I knew from the start we birth certificate said born in Colombia I would have just wrote born in colombia. Maybe she just should have written on the Ds-156 born in Colombia and everything would have been ok.

ElCheAmericano comments on k3 visa, besides the $380 my wife has to pay the embassy

My wife is coming on a K3 So I guess thats not the same as an immigrant visa. Does that mean she just has to pay Bank Union $100

ElCheAmericano comments on k3 visa, besides the $380 my wife has to pay the embassy

Now I'm really confused On the US embassy website it says that the day of the appointment I have to pay $380 at Bank Union. If I dont pay them how do I go about paying NVC our interview is in 2 weeks.

ElCheAmericano comments on Approval of I130 before I129F

ElCheAmericano comments on Questions about Passport and Name Changes

I'm still confused We got married at a notaria in Barranquilla. No one ever asked us how we wanted our names to appear. So on our marriage certificate it shows her name as it is and my name as well. Nothing was ever changed. Does she have to change her cedula to my last name or apply with a visa in my name as well. Can you please explain how and when the name gets changed.

ElCheAmericano comments on Questions about Passport and Name Changes

So, Utopia is it not possible to change it now or is it just a real pain in the ass. If I we were to change it later wouldnt she have to get a new passport with her new name? What is the procedure to change her name?

ElCheAmericano comments on USCIS request for info

Holy Shit, Approved USCIS received my response to the RFE on March 20th and approved my 1-129f on March 23. Should be only short time now before the little gets here. Thanks to everyone for all your help and support who has been folowing my case.

ElCheAmericano comments on USCIS request for info

I just got an Email from USCIS stating Application Type: I129F , PETITION FOR FIANCE(E)

Current Status:

On March 20, 2006, we received your response to our request for
evidence or information. It is taking between 60 and 90 days for us to process
this kind of case. However because preliminary processing was complete,
the remaining processing time will be less than the maximum stated in
this message. You will receive a written decision on this case.

Does anyone know how much more time before I get a final decision.
The good new is I sent out the additional evidence on Tuesday and they have already have updated on today.

ElCheAmericano comments on USCIS request for info

Timeline I believe I got the NOA1 on January 25th and they sent out the RFE on March 7th.

ElCheAmericano comments on USCIS request for info

Im such an idiot The missing evidence that they wanted was something I accidently left out. I forgot to send a translation of my marriage certificicate, I'm so pissed at myself. I sent it with the I-130 but forgot to send it with the I-129f. I wonder how much longer this is gonna delay the process.

ElCheAmericano comments on I-130 request for evidence

I-797 Timeframe I received the I-797 for the I-130 aprox 30 days after I originally sent the application. I then received an I-797 for the I-129f a week after I sent it out.

ElCheAmericano comments on I-130 request for evidence

I live in Florida I got a return receipt about a week later from Texas and then my I-797 a month after the original date I mailed out the I-130 from California. I then mailed out the I-129F to Chicago and receieved a 797 from them a week later. Im just waited for the second NOA2 now. Good luck

ElCheAmericano comments on Getting a divorce in Colombia

Stanmoonie, you are correct I am giving up to early. I am going to reach down and grab a pair and see this thing thru. Peter I sent you a PM.

ElCheAmericano comments on Requirements for an anullment in Colombia?

Sorry Miguel it was Mario that I confused you for.

ElCheAmericano comments on Requirements for an anullment in Colombia?

Thanks for sharing Miguel What a story, you are much better off now. I'm sure you never expected things between you and her to end up the way they did. Damn how many girls would love to have just 1 guy to love and care about them, your ex wasn't even contempt with that. Well like you said she's someone else's problem now. I even remember pictures that you posted of you and her together in a cab in bogota I believe. God now's what might become of me if I stay married.

ElCheAmericano comments on UNIONTELECARD.COM USA LONG DISTANCE TO COLOMBIA

The card that I have been using for calling a cell phone in Colombia is ETB. On a $10 dollar card I get 115 minutes which is the best I have gotten. The card doesnt have any hidden fees and you only pay for the minutes you use. I had so many issues with STS and other phone cards, this one has been the best. The website I use is Cardtogo.com.

ElCheAmericano comments on NEW FRIENDS

Chicabonita I use to be a serious christian until I sold my soul to the devil. Maybe I need to go back to church, but I will be your friend if you like.

ElCheAmericano comments on Requirements for an anullment in Colombia?

ELMO I'm not to sure I can nail the best looking broads in all Curramba. As for as her friends wanting to nail me, I'm not to sure if thats true either. I asked her what they thought of me and the best answer she gave me was that they said I looked simpatico, which sounds kind of plain to me. In fact she even said that some of them said she could do better, not to be arrogant but I kind of wrote this off as bullshit/jealousy. I would do Carnival but I dont think I will have the funds in time to do so, maybe you never know. I know I can forget this mess quickly, if I can get over 9/11 this should be nothing and as long as my left overs are willing to have you Elmo there ALL yours buddy. Oh by the way I have seen TomTom's girl Gina in person and I must say she looks spectacular.

ElCheAmericano comments on Requirements for an anullment in Colombia?

No problem GIB its a normal assumption

ElCheAmericano comments on Requirements for an anullment in Colombia?

GIB I have never stated there are no good woman in the states. She just happens to be a girl I fell in love with and have feelings for, thats all. If I would have meet a girl here who I felt the same for I would have done the samething, well maybe.
And because of my situation Im not gonna say that all colombians woman are the same as my wife, I would be a fool to believe such nonsense. I tried to be someone's savior a crime I have been guilty of before, just that I have never taken it to the point of getting married.

ElCheAmericano comments on Requirements for an anullment in Colombia?

MiamiMike I actually called up the Notary were I got married yesterday and they switched me over to a lawyer that works there. He told me that the divorce with me not even having to be there is 300k pesos. Basically $130.00 US which is a joke. But that if she agrees if not I will have to get divorce thru a different route which he says is more complicated and more money.

ElCheAmericano comments on Requirements for an anullment in Colombia?

Thats sucks Miguel I have read some of your previous post, I didnt know you broke up. But oh well life goes on and I'm sure there is better out there. As for as my wife goes she is a special case. I have been more generous to her and have overlooked many things which I would never tolerate in say a girl in the states. Maybe my wife is showing her true colors now, but I guess I feel somewhere my wife has a co-conspirator like yours Miguel, I feel there is someone whether friend or family thats puting shit in her head. But I'm tired of her outburst of anger and her hanging up on me whenever we have a disagreement. Its just bullshit and getting tired of it. There are positive thingss about her also but the negative things are outweighing the good. I always knew that with her I was taking a gamble because of her instability, and maturity or lack there off and I have seen good changes in her life but right now she seems stressed out living at home and is taking it out on me.

So Miguel, how did you come to the conclusion to end your relationship, how did you realize what you were dealing with.

ElCheAmericano comments on Requirements for an anullment in Colombia?

If your looking for wisdom Rene look elsewere, obviously if I had more I wouldnt be debating whether or not to divorce. From reading your previous post Rene your relationship with your fiancee seems ligit. The only thing I found strange is how you keep in contact with your girl's friend which I find insane and somewhat insecure on your part. But aside from that you should be fine.

As for my relationship, its nothing that has happened overnight to bring me to the point were I am at now. Its probably a combination of things I have known, things I dont want to know mixed with I dont see how things are gonna change for the better.

Atleast for you Rene, you know were your money is going I dont and thats probably my fault. Your money goes for rent and school, which I wish I could get away with sending my wife 290,000 cop with no problem. I probably give my wife double that per month and Im not sure exactly how she spends, this is were part of the problem lies. God forbid I question her, she'll throw a fit and hung up on me, problem number 2. But it is I that has created my own problems and only I with the help of God to give me a clear head that will help me get out.

On the upside, Ive never suspected my wife of cheating. I really do believe she loves me as much as she is capable of loving a man. Unfornutely I think she loves herself 100 times more and doesnt know how to give back the love that she receives. Sometimes she like a little kid that thinks her parents dont care about her because they dont get the gift that request.

There's no science to any of what I'm saying. Just use your instincts and let the head upstairs dominate the head downstairs.

ElCheAmericano comments on Requirements for an anullment in Colombia?

Actually Kat I got married last month, so technically it was last year. Yeah I know it sound ridicolous and also very embarrassing for me to be going thru this. If you want more details PM me.

ElCheAmericano comments on Requirements for an anullment in Colombia?

Obviously if I go that route or get a divorce I am going to get legal advise. But in the mean time it doesnt hurt to get any knowledge from people who have some info on the subject. Actually I did get advise and was told that annullment basicly is non existant in Colombia. The lawyer told me a divorce will cost me $300,000 COP and will take approx 40 minutes.
