I was introduced to her and we talk for a month and i visited her and after 2 weeks we got married. In india arrange marriage happens this way, the CO knows it too, the only thing its bothering them is the previous visa that they applied for her.

When?

timing matters here

In my group there are people who spend less time then that together, this is how arrange marriage is done. The CO has to know this.

Wedding may not be an issue, but the timing following her previous denial raises suspicions to a CO.

Hi,

 

I am going to ask a straight to the point question. Was your marriage arranged or not?

Then it comes down to the previous petition probably. Again for a large wedding party to take place that quick too, mean it takes a lot of planning so. Just saying the CO sees it as a way to bypass the appropriate sibling category visa most likely.

 

Only real way to overcome this most likely is more time spent together to show lots of face time, and wait longer to prove marriage,

 

And no one here is being hostile, we just ask direct questions to assess a timeline to try and give you better idea what the CO saw. Also the answers you get are going to be blunt and to the point sometimes. No one wants sugar coated answers that are meaningless.

No, but they can give me options on what to do next. such as filing a caveat. Im feeling little bit of hostility here instead of finding my options guys.

We're try to have to help gather facts to advise.. we're attempting to see what the CO saw. Why do you think that's hostile? 

[Savan 47]

I wanted to know if anyone had this and what did they do.

[WeGuyGal 1,052]

We could all sign out of this thread and have to wait for someone in a similar situation. Might be a long wait. As I said earlier, CR1 returns to USCIS are rare. 

[Ben&Zian 4,397]

Well from other arranged marriage threads on here, none only took 1 1/12 months to take place. Most took a lot of time and planning by the parents but, that's just what I've seen on here.

 

Again most likely just have to spend more face time together and wait and try filing again later to show length of marriage and all... but you will have a chance still to dispute their decision when USCIS eventually send you a NOIR anywhere from 3-4 months from now I think.

We are giving you options including asking some questions to see what could have made the CO feel the marriage is fraud. You haven’t responded to some questions but you seem to feel like CO should have granted her the visa just because arrange marriage is common in India and some other people were granted the visa. Each case is judged by its own background and evidences. 

 

You can definitely hire a lawyer and waste money just to get the same information you are getting here.

While arranged marriages are common in India, most people don't have your particular facts.  Most arranged marriages in India don't involve immigrating to the US.  People have been know to arrange fake marriages for their children to immigrate to the US.

 

Your USC sister-in-law filed for her parents as Immediate Relatives.  Derivative beneficiaries are not allowed.  Your wife was never going to immigrate with them.  (CSPA and aging out is not an issue here).  

Shorting after immigrating to the US without their daughter, the US Embassy suspects that they arranged a fake marriage for their daughter to immigrate.  

 

You are connected to her family, you weren't a suiter that she met.  Her family arranged your love affair.  That's suspicious given that it was done shortly after they immigrated and she couldn't.

 

You knew her about a month before going to India.  How long before hand did you buy the tickets?  Did you buy them a week after talking to her and then waited 3 weeks to take your trip?

 

You married her after 2 weeks there.  In 6 weeks between meeting her, you were married in a giant wedding with 1200 people.  How easy is it to arrange a wedding that quick?  Seems like something that would take a few months to arrange.  Seems like the wedding was planned and the only thing missing was a US citizen groom.

 

That's the suspicion.  How was a 1200 guests wedding arranged after you started to talk six weeks prior?  Sound normal to you?

No, I think they should of atleast not send the file back to USCIS and if they didn't want to believe us or see the proof then they should of done investigation, which i don't mind if they want to do investigation but straight out calling our marriage sham without a single evidence is wrong.

[Savan 47]

My sister in law filed for her in 2015 for sibling but that filed never came through, this is 4 years ago and they are connecting that to my case.

OK.

 

From what you posted it sounds like the officer believed that your wife's family was trying to find a way to bring her to the US. You previously mentioned that the Co had no evidence of fraud. there is no law that states that a CO has to have hard evidence to refuse to give a visa. If there are suspicions, than a case can be denied. That is also why they have interviews.

 

You may not see the suspicions but in the eyes of others there are some things that look concerning.

 

• Your wife had a previous family petition that she failed to be a part of.
• Most of your wife's immediate family is in the US.
• Your wife's family arranged for you and her to get married shortly after she was found ineligible for her previous visa.
• You and your wife spend a short amount of time together before marriage.
• The wedding was fairly quick.

 

Those points are enough to give an officer investigating your case doubt. Hope this gives you an idea of what it looks like from the outside.

 

Good luck to you.

What you are getting is the cold hard truth of how the US Embassy sees your case.   Telling you about this is not hostility, it's just not what you want to her.  You want to hear solutions.  We're trying to tell you what the problems are.  How can you find solutions without fully understanding the problems.  While you think the problem is a US Embassy in India that doesn't understand how arranged marriages work in India.  The US Embassy understands local cultures and customs.  We are trying to tell you what the real problems are.  We are trying to help you.

I am seeing no matter what we say the OP will not like it. When they don't hear the answers or quick solutions they want they tend to always get frustrated and then call us hostile. 

 

Good luck to the OP, but it isn't going to be a quick magical fix. Can search here on top right hand side in the search bar for things like "Arranged marriage" or "India arranged marriage" and find a lot of other threads from other posters. Those threads may contain more info you might find helpful or interested. I'm out.
