How often is K1 visa denied?

[Masha2008 0]

I wonder how often K1 visa can be denied? And what are common reasons for deny? I have never done over stay. My boyfriend and I have been doing long distance since Sept2006. I finished my school in the US and came back to Japan and now i am getting working experience. He also got a career. And now we thought that it was time for us to get married so we filed in July 28th. We have been together since high school. I am sooo sooo worried.

The important thing is the proof of relationship. If you have been together for a long time I don't think you will have anything to worry about. Good luck

Santa Ana?? I'm from Santa Ana too

Congratulations on your engagement!!! If you are working in Japan, why not get married there, live there 6 months and file an I-130 to the embassy in Tokyo. It would probably be a lot less stressful and time consuming than the I129F route.

Nonetheless, good luck!

edit: maybe I misunderstood. Are you and your fiance both living and working in Japan? You or your fiance should look up my fiance on mixi. She has a great support group on there for people with American fiances waiting around for Visa's.

Yes I lived in Santa Ana for a long time. I actually lived with my boyfriend when we went to college together. I graduate from CSULB and he graduated from UCI. We had to do long distance because we were just out of college and needed some working experiences. he got a real career now so we decided to marry.
