Dear guys! 

I hope I have put this topic at the right place. If not, excuse me.

I am at the very beginning of my journey and while not allowed to work, spending some time at this great forum. 

Just curious, which countries  ( already know for Ghana and Nigeria) are red flagged as " high fraud "? Are any European countries in that group? 

Thank you so much for your answers!

Specifically not Denmark or the Faroe Islands. The main European countries considered high fraud are Eastern European countries.

That is what I have been guessing actually, as our North European countries have bigger life standards then  ( unfortunatelly) Eastern ones, so no need for immigration fraud.

We, Faroans mostly immigrate to some Scandinavian countries  ( my case- Sweden).

Thank you for your answer.

Oh I am well away of you Faroese people. My wife's former bosses when she lived/worked in Doha were from the Faroe Islands. She worked for them for 5 years and they treated her like family and still keep in touch to this day.

When I asked your "high fraud" question of a retired consular officer, he answered firmly, "Any poor country."

06-04-2007 = TSC stamps postal return-receipt for I-129f.

06-11-2007 = NOA1 date (unknown to me).

07-20-2007 = Phoned Immigration Officer; got WAC#; where's NOA1?

09-25-2007 = Touch (first-ever).

09-28-2007 = NOA1, 23 days after their 45-day promise to send it (grrrr).

10-20 & 11-14-2007 = Phoned ImmOffs; "still pending."

12-11-2007 = 180 days; file is "between workstations, may be early Jan."; touches 12/11 & 12/12.

12-18-2007 = Call; file is with Division 9 ofcr. (bckgrnd check); e-prompt to shake it; touch.

12-19-2007 = NOA2 by e-mail & web, dated 12-18-07 (187 days; 201 per VJ); in mail 12/24/07.

01-09-2008 = File from USCIS to NVC, 1-4-08; NVC creates file, 1/15/08; to consulate 1/16/08.

01-23-2008 = Consulate gets file; outdated Packet 4 mailed to fiancee 1/27/08; rec'd 3/3/08.

04-29-2008 = Fiancee's 4-min. consular interview, 8:30 a.m.; much evidence brought but not allowed to be presented (consul: "More proof! Second interview! Bring your fiance!").

05-05-2008 = Infuriating $12 call to non-English-speaking consulate appointment-setter.

05-06-2008 = Better $12 call to English-speaker; "joint" interview date 6/30/08 (my selection).

06-30-2008 = Stokes Interrogations w/Ecuadorian (not USC); "wait 2 weeks; we'll mail her."

07-2008 = Daily calls to DOS: "currently processing"; 8/05 = Phoned consulate, got Section Chief; wrote him.

08-07-08 = E-mail from consulate, promising to issue visa "as soon as we get her passport" (on 8/12, per DHL).

08-27-08 = Phoned consulate (they "couldn't find" our file); visa DHL'd 8/28; in hand 9/1; through POE on 10/9 with NO hassles(!).

Some of the countries that are "fraud labeled" are not all "poor countries". We have the benefit of capitalism to the highest degree.I think truly people look where can we go to make money....in my humble opinion.

Doesn’t necessarily tie up with visa refusal rates though (which are often used as a rough guide for fraud prevalence). For example Australia has a 15% B visa refusal rate and southern African countries are like 5-6%
