Have you ever had a question that you wanted to revisit after sending off your application simply because you want to make absolute sure everything you said was 100% accurate? Well this is one of those questions and it pains me to even think that this would be a reason for visa denial at the end if we were not honest enough. My wife tried to get a tourist visa back in October 2008 but was denied however upon looking over question 16 I answered that she did not have any previous visa proceedings simply based off the answers that you have a choice from. Out of Removal, Exclusion/Deportation, Rescission, and Judicial Proceedings there was nothing that could accurately describe that she just applied for a tourist visa and was denied. So i just answered no and put N/A through here. Does anyone believe this is a big deal or what? For the I129 K3 Visa I noticed there was not a similar question so I just assumed that if it came up at the interview and the Colombian US Embassy saw she did try for a tourist visa I would say it was to visit me. Your thoughts are appreciated.

A denial of a tourist visa does not fall under "under immigration proceedings".

I was denied entry twice from the US and put NO for question 16.

Good luck.

Thanks for the quick replies. Like I said I answered no but when when you start to think about it more and more the doubt begins to feed off and you start to wonder. Now I do not have to worry :).
