Thank you so much Airboy

Please do I need to go through the k-1 visa since she is pregnant already, although we have not married properly? Thanks for your advice

If you are not married the option is the K1 visa.

Here is my timeline :
USCIS approved September 2020,
NVC: September 2020
Since at NVC 2020 - 2022
Case moved to embassy (Nigeria): March 2022
Interviewed : 2nd June,2022
Question: when did you get to know ?
How did you get to know?
Are your children going?
Does she have children?
Have you been married before?divorce decree?for me and her?
When do you intend to get married ?
Interview: approved.

Good thing is that we nominated that our case file be shared with US consulate ,so they had our file from USCIS and all our pictures on their desk already today ... So the pictures I went with wasn't asked for but they rather returned the ones we sent to USCIS. Thank God �... I'm off to Florida to meet my Fiance. Wish you all goodluck as you await.

NB: TAKE YOUR FINGER PRINT AND POLICE CHARACTER CERTIFICATE WITH YOU COS THEY NEED THE FINGER PRINT DOC ALSO.

Ready for pick up or ready for interview?

However, I think you should write LAGOSNIV for updates on your Visa/passport.

I understand you’re worried but the best thing to do is to wait till they update your status.

Please note, after interview approval, your case still need to go through administrative processing where they do some checks before finally approving your Visa .

In my case, I got my passport back after 2-3weeks of interview and I’ve read cases of 2/3months.

Just be calm, and have your petitioner call and write them, you will definitely get your stamped passport back.

Anyone still awaiting their passport pickup after one week of receiving an approval?
Re: USA Fiancee (K1) Visa Thread by mumdearest: 9:34am On Jun 06, 2022
Good morning all and I would like to thank you for kind words.

My Visa was denied based on my past B1/B2 application. Even when the officer could not give a chance to clarify his assertions.

I would like to respond to some speculations which i have read so far based on what I witnessed at the embassy on the day of my interview:
1. Denial rate for both (spousal/fiance) was high
2.Some people still got their visas as well
3. Past records of you and your petitioner play a big role in your application.
4. I have all evidences needed right with them but it still doesn't matter if your relationship is genuine or not as long as the officer feels he is not convinced.
5. you can appeal a K1 denial.
Thank you.



sharpman1:


Previous travels or B1/B2 visa has zero impact a K1 petition.

I had a valid b1/b2 visa and I had traveled to the US twice within the past 1.5 years as at the time I had my K1 interview.

Any attempt to appeal a K1 is a waste of time. You can refile a K1 petition but if the story is the same, it will also result in a denial.

The only smart solution to a K1 denial is to get married, file a spousal petition, hire a lawyer if the situation is complex and hope the petition is approved. However, it can still be denied if the issues that caused the denial of the K1 is not resolved.

Your K1 was denied based on contradicting information in your past B1/B2 application vs your K1 application. That created some doubt. Most COs won't give you an opportunity to clarify.
