Denied

[nicky&imad 16]

wow, that's so crazy!! Sorry to hear, how do they expect us to know every single detail if we dont live with eachother, not everyone can afford to go to morocco and live there for 3 months, its not our fault if we meet and fall in love. God destined us to be together (L) But definetly dont give up!! :D

I think it might be the quick engagement within the first year. How did you meet him? Were you there for those 7 months or did you visit? When did you visit? It almost sounds like they asked those ridiculous questions as a matter of form, in order to do what they already had in their minds to do, which was deny. How many people were in your school? Come on, why would you ever discuss that with your fiance? Like that is a pertinent piece of information in today's reality. I have a question though - how did they know about your half-brother and half-sister? Is that information they just found out about you on their own? Also, are you Moroccan-American, I am just wondering because you said your parents came to America.

we met online. i went there after 7 months and the first time was when we got engaged i stayed that time for 5 days and than after 10 months i went back and stayed with him and his family for 2 months. He told them in the interview when they asked about how many sibilings i have and he said 4 two younger brothers and a half brother and sister. I am just American. my parents are originally from jamaica.

Perhaps what they meant was that you didn't know each other enough in person? I'm not sure if you meant you lived there for 2 months before or after filing, but they may have taken issue with the 5 day visit before getting engaged and maybe also before filing. I'm sorry to hear about your denial.

Do you know which questions he was unable to answer, or answered incorrectly?

Sorry to hear that. Never give up. My fiancee was denied her first K-1 visa application on Sept. 2010 and I applied for the second K-1 on April. Today, after 31 days AP, her visa is approved. I advise you not to give up.

Good luck

Excellent news...Congrats.

all the questions about our relationship he knew. like when we met, how long we been together, but then they start asking questions like how many ppl were in my school and when did my parents come to america and what did my half brother and sister do for a living. just stupidness. I don't understand y they did that to him? We knew each other 7 months b4 we got engaged. and we were together a year and a half b4 we sent the petition. by time he had his interview it is not 2 years. They didnt even look at ne of the proof or evidence we prepared just said at the end when he asked y they denied him "you dont know ur fiance enough, and u can have another chance after u get married to her." the treatment was very unfair. he didnt even have a chance to prove nething.

I'm so sorry to hear about the denial. Morocco is a very tough embassy. You just never know what type of questions that they will ask and how deep that they will go. I've read a lot of VJ'ers interview experiences with the US embassy in Morocco.

Don't give up on your relationship or this process, just learn from it and be prepared when you chose to file again...whatever route you decide to take. You can look at other VJ members that are from Morocco and read about their interview questions and their experiences. It may be very beneficial if you are there when it comes time for the interview.

My husband is from Lebanon and I know that he will be more scrutinized than individuals from other countries. He has never been to the US, but he knows a lot about my family and close friends, but if the CO asked him how many people were in the college I attended, he wouldn't know, and I certainly don't know. The CO was was really digging deep to see how well your fiance knows you.

Good luck...don't give up. You will be united with your fiance.

It would seem, from your posts, that meeting in person for 5 days and getting engaged on the first visit was your undoing. Would you agree to marry an American man you've met only for 5 days? I (and, more importantly, the COs) don't think so. Time spent online, no matter how many hours, is not considered to be as important as face-time in the real world.

You can get married and file for the CR-1 again. Good luck and keep us posted.
