Nooo we just having misunderstandings abt the fact if i said married lime our culture is the union is made in a mosquee and not in a court ...in the tradition we married but officially not like we dnt go at tht time to the court .....in the name of usa juridiction we not married as we dnt go yet to court n sorry for my english in french will be more clear

Was you marriage considered legally binding in the country in which it was undertaken and do you have marriage certificate or equivalent from that? If you didn’t go to court would your country still consider you married?

 

Or did you have a traditional marriage but in your country it isn’t legally binding until you have the court marriage, therefore too married for fiancé visa but not married enough for spouse visa?

Right so you were denied because traditional marriage, but not married enough for a spouse visa until you did the court marriage. Probably not as bad as having a marriage cert and claiming not married but still not able to appeal. 

 

Tourist visa still a long shot as US wife and child due, tourist visa being for tourism not to live with wife and child whilst you wait for visa.

you do not have to go to court to have your marriage to be considered legal in the eyes of the USCIS. so you have already proven to be able to either understand the laws or attempt to skate past them.

 

You need to file for I-130 then you need to get medical records for your wife's soon birth, and those need to be filed and asked for an expedite.

Pregnancy isn’t an expedite reason, unless there is another medical reason to make it a high risk pregnancy and even then won’t be guaranteed to work.

Exactly.  USCIS really don't care if somebody's wife is pregnant. To them it's only bad planning because they know people would have a baby just to expedite any case. Not saying is the OP case.

Yup we admitted was a mistake because we were thinking is the fastest one then we tried..so do u mean i can apply for the tourist as our Cr1 is on process...? Am i lucky to get the tourist visa??

Did you admit to the interviewer you purposely filed for a K-1 instead of a CR-1 because you wanted the fastest path to the US? That isn't a misunderstanding that is misrepresentation.

 

Your chances of getting a tourist visa after being denied a K-1 visa are next to none. You are an extreme risk of never leaving the US. I suggest you learn how to respect US immigration law if you expect the same kind of respect back.

I am under the impression the wife is the USC and returned to the US to give birth. She is no longer pregnant and needs help with the baby. An expedite wouldn't apply in this case as she is no longer pregnant. You can't expedite because a USC needs childcare (I would've done this myself). His wife has the option to return to live as a family in Senegal.

You can't tell posters  to "shut it" or not to post. It is against the site's TOS which you agreed to when you signed up.

 

Also, @pushbrk is a long time member and valuable contributor to the board. He has given countless  professional advice for many years.

 

Truth is you are in a bad situation because you made poor choices and do not like the responses. Even so the advice you have received so far has been helpful for you to understand the severity of your actions.

and there is the problem.  You lied because you thought it would be faster for a K-1.  You have total disregard for the laws of this great country...............immigration to the US is a privilege, and it is serious business.

Hello everybody i have a doubt abt my visa k1 application ..i was denied recently and the consular said my petition will be send back to uscis and since now 4 months i didnt hear from them but when i check my visa status online it was said:ADMINISTRATIVE PROCESSING ..what does it mean..? How long this will take ? Can we reaplied as we know this is already denied and my petition is expired..plz need help for clearance.

salam brother

I think you have been quite clear

you were not eligible fir a K1  and were rightly denied, a religious wedding means you are married regardless of the legal aspects

make your marriage fully legal and apply for a spousal visa, hope the misrep does not catch up to you
