Blue 221g what to expect!! K1 visa

[wedidit101 4]

Hello Vj 

my fiance and I have been together for 4 years now we love each other deeply. we have a  strong bond. we have seen each other for the total of four months and three weeks 

 

I had my interview  May 22th, 2022 in the us embassy in algeria the CO didn't take the evidence of the relationship i brought with me  ( texts, pictures, rental contract, affidavit from parents and family) he wasn't friendly at all  and he kinda focused on one perticular thing which is the age gap we have 25+ years but it's not something that bother us not to mention that she doesn't look her age AT ALL  I answered all his questions correctly.  the interview was short around 10 to 15 minutes 

in the end he gave me a blue  slip 221g  and he said he will need to further review my case or something like that and didn't ask for any additional documents 

he kept my passport, the medical, my birth certificate, police records of her and mine,  my fiance divorce paper work, 2 passport pictures. 

 

 

- Now the case status in CEAC hasn't changed AT ALL since the interview it still shows refused, and the last date the case has been updated  same as  the date of the interview  meaning no change at all

 

- my passport status changed from your passport is still at the embassy to Document Delivery Information:  

 

 

I have so many questions like:

are we denied or approved? 

what actualy the blue slip 221g color stands for?

why he didn't take the evidence of the relationship?

why there's no update on our case (18 days now)?

  where's my passport?

 

Please any insight will be very apprecieted. 

 

 

Thank you all for taking the time

- no one can answer the question. you just have to wait for the result ( denied or approved)

- did u submit the evidence of relationship in the initial package or you just bring everything to the interview

Good that he kept your passport

but with a  25+ year age gap,  i would suspect a  denial of the K1

 

1.  approved or denied -not yet decided by the CO

2.  evidence at interview- the CO has read the packet before the interview and bases question upon the documents she sent in with the petition

3.  updates?   u may be waiting 6 or more months to find out if denied or approved 

watch CEAC for best info https://ceac.state.gov/ceacstattracker/status.aspx

4.  where is passport ? At the embassy unless they send it back to u

 

To overcome a  big age gap,  most of us have had to marry and file the CR1 spousal visa (as i did)

allah yessir

nope,   they can not change the outcome or the decision of the CO

 

AS a matter of fact all a lawyer does is collect money to fill out an application , collect evidence u provide and copy it to mail

that's a big fee to mail something out

they work on documents for u and all others in the embassy that have interviewed 

this takes time 

u can pray and hope for the best

 

understand 25+ years is a red flag

other red flags are difference in education

woman is over the age to bear children (in this culture)

difference in social class or culture (which of course we all have)

secret relationship from family

proclaimation of love in first days of talking

I think it's a good thing that it wasn't a flat out denial. 

I guess my fiance and I were too optemestic thinking we are going to get approved the very same day of the interview

We had a big age difference and K1 was denied even though i spent a month with him and all the family

so,  married and did CR1 

and our whole wait from K1 to visa was 6 years 

its heartbreaking but now married 12 and 1/2 years and time is going fast

keep busy and don't look for info from immigration every day/  it will drive u nuts

hate to say this

but i am surprised the CO kept your passport and did not outright deny the K1

and truthfully just trying to be honest here

I know getting married in Algeria takes a lot of work and time,  so consider meeting in Tunis if the K1 is denied and marrying there
