Will my family in the USA be involved in the k1 visa process?

[Austin86 3]

I was filling out the paper work for our k1 visa and it was asking about my parents and now I'm kinda concerned, I"m not on the best terms with my family and in the past they went out of their way to make problems for any relationship I been in, they're also super xenophobic and racist to say the lest. I know if they get asked anything they will lie and try there best to ruin things ugh. I'm also estranged from a large bulk of them as one can imagine. So they know nothing of our relationship and I plan to keep it that way. 

 

Would they be contacted at any point in the k1 process? And if my family is contacted is there a way I can give imagination a heads up not just for the sake of our visa but for their own safety as I have some family is rather mentally unstable to say the least.

As I've experienced, to reduce the risk that they'll find out sooner than later, make sure you don't have any social media profiles that reveal your relationship, even under a fake name. With all the friends of friends, and "profile suggestion to friend based on contact lists", there isn't any privacy.
