The K3 Marriage Visa was quite a sought after travel [url=http://www.getconversational.com]hollister france[/url] document in 2009. The K3 was designed for bi-national married couples wishing to expedite the visa process. In 2009 the K3 visa process was very similar to the [url=http://www.vivid-host.com/barbour.htm]barbour uk[/url] K3 visa [url=http://www.achbanker.com/home.php]www.achbanker.com/home.php[/url] process in 2008. However, there may be changes for the K3 visa process in 2010 and this article will briefly look at the changes that couples could encounter going forward.
For Thai applicants in 2009 the K3 visa process was taking approximately 8 months from initial petition submission until final decision at the United States Embassy in Bangkok. At present, this is still a good estimate of the processing time. Currently, the United States Citizenship and Immigration Service (USCIS) is predicting that it will take approximately 5 months to process a K3 petition at a USCIS Service Center. Those interested in the K3 should note that this figure does not take into account the need to file an initial I-130 application. Also, this figure does not account for the fact that the case file will be forwarded to the National Visa Center [url=http://www.davidhabchy.com]barbour outlet[/url] (NVC) for a security clearance before it will be forwarded to the United States Embassy. Taking all of these considerations into account, 8 months is a relatively accurate estimate of the time [url=http://www.materialistanyces.com]louboutin[/url] it will take to ultimately obtain the K3 visa.
In 2010, there may be changes to the K3 visa process in the form of increased fees for Consular Processing. According to recently proposed rule changes promulgated by the United States Department of State the K3 visa interview fee could be raised significantly in 2010. Under the proposed rule K visa interview fees at US Embassies and [url=http://www.bankonco.com/hollister.php]hollister[/url] Consulates abroad would rise from $131 to $350. This proposed rule has not [url=http://www.par5club.com/louboutin.php]louboutin[/url] been adopted as of the time of this writing, but a fee increase of this magnitude is substantial and should [url=http://www.sandvikfw.net/shopuk.php]hollister outlet sale[/url] be taken [url=http://www.rtnagel.com/louboutin.php]louboutin pas cher[/url] into consideration by [url=http://www.1855sacramento.com/woolrich.php]woolrich parka[/url] those thinking of applying for this [url=http://www.eastscotinvest.co.uk/mulberry.html]mulberry sale[/url] type of visa. Particularly, in the context of marriage visas it may be wise for applicants to look at the Immigrant visas such as the IR1 and CR1 as the cost is similar, but the foreign spouse enters the USA in lawful permanent resident status rather than as a non-immigrant who must adjust their status before they will be granted permanent residence (also known as a "Green Card").
