Hello friends, on Wednesday 05/16/2018 I had my interview for a K1 visa, they did not ask for more, routine questions, but before I finished they gave me a letter where they told me that the evidence presented (20 sheets of photos) and conversations ) were not enough to show my relationship with my fiancée, so they asked me to get a second appointment where I had to be present, we already have the date and time, we already have the tickets to go to the consulate of guayaquil, although we are outraged , although it is not a denial, much less an approval, I would like to know if someone has information or experience doing a second interview with K1.

Not since 2008.  I'm composing what will be a very long thread about that debacle, which still angers me 10 years later.

 

Expect to be separated and questioned separately (a Stokes interview), and for your answers to be compared.  Refuse to answer any questions about your sex lives; tell them that there are many other topics to discuss if they want to determine the bona fide nature of your relationship.

 

I highly recommend that you arrive in Ecuador a few days early and take fotos together (print them) and get receipts with your names on them from hotels, etc.

Get notarized letters from everyone who observed these, especially the living together.  Include their names, addresses, relationship to you (relative, friend, housemate, etc.), and phone numbers.

Thank you for responding Mrs. TBone, I had not checked your timeline, that I was saved a long time to this long wait, we are collecting a lot more evidence, my future father-in-law (sergeant instructor of the army, retired less than 1 year ago, veteran of the Bosnian war) comes to Ecuador with my fiancee he wants to serve as proof of our relationship, do you think it will help?

Sorry to hear that. Is Ecuador considered a high fraud country?

So it seems, you have no idea of this information until now.
