From the beginning of our K-1 practice in 1995, we have
placed a unique emphasis on supporting the fiancee through
the Embassy phase. The Embassy has always been where
most potential problems arise (initial turn down rates
in the embassies typically range from 20% - 50% for
the general population; our rate is close to zero),
and it has become particularly challenging after 9/11
and the onset of the "culture of 'no'" in
the embassies. Unlike most firms, we remain fully available
to the client and fiancee during the entire Embassy
phase. We begin proactively working on possible Embassy
problems on the first day of the representation, using
our years of experience to identify all potential problems,
both hidden and apparent, and eliminating them long
before the Embassy interview, where a failure to issue
the visa can result in months of agonizing delay. We
prepare all Embassy forms for the fiancee, and we provide
detailed instructions throughout. We use our close relations
with the embassies to ensure that the case is scheduled
for an interview at the earliest possible time and we
provide full support to the fiancee until the visa is
issued. Finally, we have legal assistants in Moscow,
Kiev and Warsaw (and soon in Guangzhou) to help prepare
the fiancee for the Embassy interview. For other embassies
(we have experience with over 80
foreign countries), one of our staff calls
the fiancee directly to prepare her for the interview.
New! Our Transparent
Office gives clients 24/7 online access to
all their case progress data, USCIS and Embassy processing
times, and more.
You can learn more about how we might
help you by calling us at 845-623-1100 (M-F, 9am until
5pm, Eastern Time). There is no charge for the initial
consultation.
