My fiancee wants me to do the K1, but would like to return to her home country until green card is issued.

She said, they coach the applicant to say they don't know anyone in the US during the interview.  This tend to let them believe that the applicant would return to China after touring the US.  If applicant such as my girlfriend answered that she has a boyfriend in the US (which is myself), they tend to think that she would either overstay, or get married and not return.    BUT, my thinking is to be truthful.  "Yes, I have a boyfriend in the US, and I'm visiting".  If I get denied, he will fly here to China to marry me, and I would be back to apply for a spousal visa.  If I want to leave China, it would happen sooner or later".  Not sure if this is better, but its the truth.

 

So not only are they making up figures to try and get you to sign up with them (there is no way of them knowing the situation of applicants etc), but they're also suggesting that your gf commits immigration fraud?!? 

 

It is an interview under oath, and any lies could result in a lifetime ban from the US. I would run, not walk, from this company as they sound dodgy as hell. Just get her to apply on her own, be truthful, and see what happens.

I 100% agree.  But plans have changed.    I will be going there to marry her first, then come back here to apply for a spousal visa.  It is less troublesome as I had learned.  Thank you for your answer.
