Prior visa application

[mandyu1 5]

I'm in the process of a K1 visa and my case is now at the embassy. I'm sitting here tonight and just remembered that about a month or two before I applied for the K1 visa my fiance applied for a tourist visa and submitted the application online. For various reasons (mislead by lawyer), he cancelled his visa appointment and never rescheduled. On the petition I submitted and all his forms for the k1 we have stated he did not previously apply for a US visa, because technically he didn't follow thru with the application. So since his application was never approved or denied will the CO still feel he previously applied for a visa and say we lied when filing for the k1? I'm stressing out a bit about this, any news or advice would be appreciated.

Thanks

While it might have been an oversight not to have listed the Application for visa whether completed or not, there is sufficient reasoning that it was not certain if that constituted a Visa Application. If you were not certain, it should have been listed on the DS-156 to be on the safe side.

If it was omitted because it slipped the mind of the person filling out the form, then make sure the fiance(e) doing the interview tells the truth and says the application slipped the mind (was forgotten) by the person filling out the forms.

EDITED to add: What really matters here is, "Was this a material misrepresentation." No, I do not think it is material.

Good luck.

I think you are just thinking of things to worry about! LOL with that being said, technically I don't believe you have anything to worry about. He cancelled the appointment so he never went to the embassy and was given permission or denied a vistior visa.

I know...it's getting so close that I'm starting to get paranoid And it didn't help matters that when I posted a reply to "Cairo's final review club," someone told me not to expect him to get his visa for at least 6 months

I also looked at the DS-156 again, and it only asks if he was approved or denied a US visa, or if his US visa was cancelled, and the answer to both of these is no, so I think I'm ok lol
