Visiting My Fiance

We haven't started the process for the K-1 visa yet. My fiance's brother came here on a K-1 visa some years ago and his wife went to visit him twice for 2 weeks each visit before app. I'm wondering if it would help for me to go there for a second time to visit my fiance in Morocco before we file. I visited him for almost a month in September/October.

Also, his brother sponsored him and he applied for a student visa last Spring and was denied. We were dating at the time (we started online dating August 2012). Is this going to interfere with getting approved for the k1? If, so how can we help our chances?

Thank you so much for any help!

Morroco is a very hard Embassy for K-1, so yes multiple visits are encouraged.

No

Thank you so much for any help!

I would definitely recommend multiple visits to build up more evidence to enable you to 'front load' your petition.

Instead of multiple visits, do you think 1 visit of my fiance staying here for 90 days is evidence enough? I think on the Visa Waiver Program that is the longest that she can stay here. And I am in Graduate school, so I will not be able to fly to South Korea.

Thanks!
