Same-Sex K1 for Egyptian Fiancé

My petition for the K1 has been approved, and we are about to schedule his interview, but some Egyptian attorneys have told him that he may encounter problems when he tries to leave Egypt with the fiancé visa stamped in his passport, because the visa will show my full name, making it obvious that he is emigrating to marry another guy.

Does anyone know of any Egyptian same-sex K1 holders who have left Egypt with no problems?

Thanks.

Why would it have your name you are not the one getting the visa???

Ya the petitioners name is not on the visa, it is in the packet but that stays with you until you reach border control in the US.

I agree why would it have your partner's name on it? Whoever told you that is full of #######.

Yep to the ####

If Egyptian authorities don't ask, then don't tell.

Also, don't forget to get stamped off clearing him of leaving the country by the Egyptian Military.

Not sure what you mean by "get stamped off clearing him of leaving the country by the Egyptian Military." Is that something over and above the examination of his passport by Egyptian Immigration as he leaves?

Why are Egyptian attorneys involved? There is no need for them.

that he may encounter problems when he tries to leave Egypt with the fiancé visa stamped in his passport, because the visa will show my full name, making it obvious that he is emigrating to marry another guy.

By whom? Airport personnel? For sure not at POE here in the States.

Does anyone know of any Egyptian same-sex K1 holders who have left Egypt with no problems?

Thanks.
