forgive me

Has anyone noticed how many post are concerning fraudulent K1's??? How many are filing for divorce or "sending" their spouse back ??? Its so irritating to me. I filed for petition a year ago next month, have been on AP for over 6 months, and Ive seen many cases approved, the couple marry, and then file for divorce all in the year ive bee waiting. Even Ive seen post of people saying "can I file second petition" in the time ive been waiting. Now I feel so sorry for the petitioners that have been used, and trust me my heart goes out to you.. But for the ones who are abusing this system, Im really really aggravated with this.

My fiance and I have known each other four years. We know each other better than we know ourselves. And for us to have to wait on this AP Bull**** while so many are abusing this is simply ridiculous!!! How many fradulent cases are slipping by while we sincere, honest people are put thru AP/AR hell?????

Believe me I am not posting this to offend anyone... But each time I see another post that says they are divorcing or sending the benificary back I get so upset I could scream...

Forgive me everyone but I had to vent on this one...............

I can certainly sympathize with your situation. It was bad enough just waiting for the "normal" processing, nevermind waiting for AR to go thru.

I hope you hear something really soon and that you can be together to start your lives in the U.S.

Good luck and best wishes.

vicky/bala, i completely agree with you. I have read those posts too and i can see there are a lot of fraudulent cases. I cant believe how a person can lie in that way just to get in the States. In my case as many others, it was really difficult to be far away all those months from my now husband, and i hate how now seeing those case, how easy those people got the visa and they were just using their fiances or husbands just to get here and then after sometime they left them, like nothing That makes me feel bad and more because recently i have seen that latin people is doing that

While I agree that this process for some is very very hard, I do not however agree with this statement, yes people are being fraudulent but I would not say it was one particular set of people. I hope the OP is with her love one very soon and good luck with it all.

I agree how upseting it must be, and I wonder myself in some of those posted cases if they couldn´t see it coming since they´d only met their SOs for so little and especially since we do KNOW there are frauds out there. I do think that maybe some of those people trully didn´t expect things to go wrong.

I mostly agree though that it seems unfair that honest people have to wait so long and many frauds are being fast approved.

I don't think there's a fradulent intent if things "don't work out". It happens. What is your data source for all these fraudlent issued visas's?

In most cases the benificiary HAS to return to their country after the divorce so nothing is gained.

Sorry for your wait

I agree

I so agree, Andy and I have known each other 6 years and been going through this ridiculas process for 7 months and still not together. We cannot even visit because of lack of money and are saving for the time the visa is hopefully granted. It annoys me to the bone to see people only knowing each other for a few weeks or months going headfirst into this process and then giving up and after all that, I don't feel sorry for them I feel sorry for all us lot who are waiting and being delayed because of these ignorant people.

still waiting for VJ to provide free blow up immigration officials to punch and kick and scream at to our wee hearts content...

Sooooo, should they stay together then? I mean c'mon. It seriously irritates me that people try to pinpoint small thing to justify the wait times. I think its better than them staying married and filing for AOS with no intention of staying togehter.

I like to think that the "failures" are not intentional, and I don't wish to think ill of those whose relationships fail. Maybe I am too naive. At the present, it appears that the processing disruption is simply an administrative failure that is unacceptable and inexcusable IMO. You don't decide to do something that you are unprepared to handle or undertake. If you are unable to do the work, it is almost criminal not to make this known to the public...to not communicate about this problem does not lead to constructive solutions to addressing the problem.

I agree with the OP here. People jumping into things without thinking them through seems an unfair drain on the resources that should be used to cut down the wait time of the rest of us.

My data source would be the recent post ive seen lately.. one from a gent who brought a lady here only to find out a few weeks later that she had another boyfriend here in the U S .. One from a gent who states his fiance kept the boyfriend she had back in her home country after she came here...there has been more but no need to rehash them for the OP's its bad enough they had to live thru it... im not venting only for myself, as a vj mbr since oct. Ive followed a lot of cases that seem utterly ridiculous to me. A few that comes to mind is Mary, who waited 17 months to be reunited with her husband.. And Shonjavad.. after many months, still she is waiting to be with her husband.. these ladies waited longer than it took some of these people to meet, file, get approved, marry , and end it .............does that sound strange or what????

There are always going to be those few people who have no morals and who do not think they have to do things the "right" way unfortunately. C'est la vie.

Im Bala, Vicki's fiance. Here is my point. People come to know each other in short time, sooner they plan to get married. And they get their visa. Well, Immigration gives 90 days time to get married then 2 yrs of living together, that is the testing period of their relationship. That is perfectly ok. Then they should approve whoever apply for k-1 visa. But they dont. They do security checks. I can accept that. What is Administrative Processing? Even after 6 months we havent asked for security checks. Then for 6 months what is going on? At interview i have given all the evidence. I have asked them by email many times whether do i have to send any more papers for support, they said nothing needed. They are processing the case. What is it? We have a strong foundation for our relationship to prove it is honest, any one can see it. That is why Vicki got so upset with these fraudulant cases. When some people get k-1 visa so easily with out any foundation (i mean knowing each other for short period of time) and divorcing faster than their relationship before marriage is all making us crazy.

Thank you guys!

I totally agree with you Vicki/Bala, solid relationship are getting caught up in this abyss of AP. Keep the

faith and remain strong. It is very fustrating to read some of these post about split ups of those who have made it through this process. There has got to be a better way to do this, but until that happens this is what we are stuck with, never give up!!!
