sorry if posted this wrong

last time i went to the us i was sent to secondary screening and got my trip shortened. i was allowed in to the us after they grild me for about 1 or 2 hours sorry don't remember exactly.

me and my fiance are now planning on going the k1 visa rute.

however i wonder if this can affect my k1 visa?
last time i went, i went to see my relatives me and my fiance were just friends then however we decided that we were going to try to meet since we did not know if we would be able to, we did meet :D but just for 1 day
since cbp has a record on you once u are pulled to secondary screening i wonder if the record shows i was visiting relatives.
my concern is, me and my fiance meet just once when i was there, we have met after but in a third country (his not allowed due to work to travel overseas)
when submiting prof for the k1 visa that we meet, i will submit a photo on our frist time meeting each other. now is that a good idee?
i mean what if cbp think i lied and they refuse my k1 visa at poe or at the interview.
just because i was sent to secondary screening and meet my (friend at the time) during my visit. i was indeed viiting realtives and being able to see him was just a plus back then
i also wonder if meeting in a third country is going to be an issue with the k1 visa ?
sorry this post was long and thanks in advance and i apologize for my english smile.png

You shouldn't have any issues. So long as you can prove you've met (anywhere, it doesn't have to be in the US or Sweden), within 2 years of submitting the petition, then that's fine.

Read and follow the guide: http://www.visajourney.com/content/k1guide

Your meeting proof will need to be more than a photo - you'll need to also include boarding passes/passport stamps to prove the dates.
