U.S. EMBASSY TO PROCESS FIANCE VISAS
Beginning Monday, June 2nd, U.S. Embassy Kyiv will begin processing fiance visas (K1 visas). This move will eliminate the need for these applicants to travel to Warsaw for their interviews. It also is the first step in moving all immigrant visas cases for Ukrainian citizens from Warsaw to Kyiv.
Additional immigrant visa processing is expected to begin in early 2005. This service will apply only to new applicants, not those with pending petitions. If an applicant=92s petition has already been sent to Warsaw, that case will not be transferred to Kyiv. If you are just beginning the fiance visa process, please consult our website at http://www.usembassy.kiev.ua for information, instructions and downloadable application forms. If, after reviewing the website, you still have questions, you may email the Embassy at ivkiev@state.gov .
Please note that the Department of State and the Bureau of Citizenship and Immigration Services are the most reliable sources of information on how to process fiance visas. Private companies that charge a fee for their services are not affiliated with the U.S. government. It is not required that you go through an agency to obtain a fiance visa.
