I do not think he got a misrepresentation ban because he said they met thru a friend vs meeting online..

Nigeria is the hardest embassay! They just used your lie to deny you. They figured you are trying to scam her.

 

You should have more visits, longer visits and apply for a cr1

 

This "lie" was probably just a red flag in your application...no one else knows what else was in the application 

How old are you? How old is your spouse? How many visits have you had?

 

Thanks very much for your opinion

If we are so bad, why do you still want to come here and do business with us, besides I'm not going to the US because of US, I'm going there to be with my fiancé 

Well...you hope to go there. The likelihood of that actually occurring isn't great, and certainly isn't in the near future.

Oh good, back to the topic, its nice for you to say that, it would be nice if you understand our situation and want to help or just rather not say anything, it's as simple as that, we know a lot of people are very blunt, but when you jump into condemning or judging someone, remember you too make mistakes, lie and get caught at the end and want to right as constantly as you can. If we wanted to stick to the initial lie, we would have but we realized the lie got us killed the first time and wanted to make things right but it repeated again

And there's consequences with those lies.  My husband and I initially met on a hookup site.  That was definitely embarrassing to put but didn't want to lie.

It's good that you didn't repeat the lie. But we're telling you that your truth now does not undo your past lie. It's documented, and anybody in immigration is not likely to take what you say as truthful now. This isn't telling a fib to a friend...it's a serious immigration offense.

 

Back to the topic...what else do you need to know? I think you've been provided with the various options still available to you.

What is the better option to go with, since it's our case is still hanging there at the embassy and shows "Administrative processing" on their site for our case

It will be send back soon to the USCIS, left to expire since they recommended revoke. You can try the CR-1 route but chances are small.

Hard to say as all options to immigrate to the US are low risk for you right now. You can try another K-1 but it's unlikely to succeed. You can meet again and marry then go for the CR-1...get denied...then try for a waiver. IMHO it's not a high chance of success, but better than the K-1.

 

Or you can look at having your fiance immigrate to you.

 

I do not believe the K-1 has a waiver that you can use, but you're free to seek a legal professional to confirm this.

Why not have your fiancee come to you?  What's wrong with Nigeria?

If she wanted to come to me in Nigeria, we would never have applied then. She has kids who are still in school and depend on her for support, who will do that when she moves here?

That is your option now it seems? With the $$ you will spend for attorney fees, travel etc, she should come to your country...

Exactly....I smell a scam here. LOL

One lie always covers another one. The Embassy did the right thing to refuse you.

I am pretty sure he meant who would support the children, he stated they are in school if the father would not allow them to immigrate or their mother did not feel them immigrating to Nigeria would be good for them and she had to leave them behind who would support them?  My husband is from Nigeria if he had been denied his visa immigrating there would not have been an option, I too have young children who I could not justify taking them from the US.
