Visa denied

[spartan 2]

My friend's wife was denied in her k3 interview because of insufficient income of my friend here in US. What will he must do now? Can he get a co-sponsor? if he can, then what is the procedure in getting co-sponsor? Does he needs to file k3 again? Any help will be appreciated. Thank you.

Probably need to get the complete/exact story on the 'denial' - it's not common to get flat out denied for this.

His wife said that the consul said it is because of her husband's insufficient income that's the reason why she's denied.

Why didn't she have a cosponsor if there was any doubt her husband's income would be insufficient? this sounds indeed strange.... are you sure that's the whole story?

Does Manila allow co-sponsors for K visas? For some reason I'm under the impression they only allow them for immigrant visas.

Same idea here.

They (USEM/Manila) do accept co-sponsors, happens every day.

So they do allow co-sponsors? May I know how my friend will file for it? Does he needs to start all over again after his wife has been denied? I've tried to search about the co-sponsor procedure for K3 but I couldn't find it. If you know about some links please share with me. And yes that is the whole story....she has lots of evidence with their relationship, she had complete requirements. She was only denied because of husband's insufficient income. By the way, her husband is a Filipino, who is a USC. Her husband stayed in the Philippines for 5 years with her and he went back here in US just last year. It's been 9 months now since he returned that's why he doesn't have enough income within 9 months in his new job. That is why, I would like to know if he can get a co-sponsor and how to do this process? Thank you.

Is the USEM giving them the option to get a co sponsor or are they sending the case back to USCIS?

[Otto 83]

Co-Sponsor's affidavit of support (and supporting documents) are presented at the same time as the US fiancé/spouse's. Traditionally this is at the time of the interview for K-visas. There's no real procedure other than that.

Is the USEM giving them the option to get a co sponsor or are they sending the case back to USCIS?

Wondering kind of the same thing - it's not clear. I find it difficult to believe USEM simply said 'denied' and didn't give the reason in writing.

is his income on an annual basis sufficient? I would suggest the USC contact the Embassy.

Hi guys, finally I got all the information from my friend now. I'm sorry I was not specific on my forum about the denied visa. Cuz at that time, my friend just told me that his wife was denied because of insufficient income and that's the only reason. He was so depressed that's why I didn't ask him again. And so I posted here and asked some advice to all of you. After reading the replies here, I tried to get in touch with him and asked the whole story about it. He said that the consul just gave his wife a white slip only. No pink slip at all for AIR21 visa delivery. The consul said " I can't give you your visa yet, you have to submit additional affidavit of support that shows your husband can support you in US." After that the consul gave her a white slip for the affidavit of support and was schedule to submit it next week. In my opinion, She doesn't need to have another interview. All she needs to do is submit what the consul asked for. Am I right? And obviously, she will be under administrative review.

One more question, She's not deny.....right? Only under AR?

Thank you

i dont think she is (denied)... i bet once her hubby give more evidence like getting a co-sponsor, then they will release the visa... getting a white slip is not denial... and yes she could be on AR or pending status while waiting for the requested doc... tell them to keep positive on this one
