Hello:

Our K1 Visa was denied at interview. The reason given is: "Beneiciary signed an affidavit noting that she married Petitioner SPECIFICALLY to incur immigration benefits and raise a family in the US". They also state she speaks little or no English as a specific problem.

What is our best option now?

Get an immigration lawyer. What is this affidavit that she signed, and who had her sign it?

Your statement is not making sense yet. K1 visa? Married?

Please provide more details and make sure they are accurate and as complete as possible.

Facts are cheap...knowing how to use them is precious...

Unfortunately, I am running in to more and more cases where individuals speak minimal english. You see this in some of the immigrant neighborhoods in the larger cities mostly, but you do see it elsewhere.

I'm talking about not speaking English at the interview in their native country. I'm not talking about everyday life! Once he/she comes to America, they can begin learning English. Thank you!

The OP should clarify, but it's my guess that if he made it to the interview stage that he meant to write "fiance." Or he meant to type K-3. Either way, his problem is the same.

3. you have to speak a common language to get a visa

Are you sure about this?

Hello:

Our K1 Visa was denied at interview. The reason given is: "Beneiciary signed an affidavit noting that she married Petitioner SPECIFICALLY to incur immigration benefits and raise a family in the US". They also state she speaks little or no English as a specific problem.

What is our best option now?

She signed an affidavit noting what? Why would she do that? You need to figure out what happened before you can plan what to do. I can't imagine how you can fight this if she signed it knowingly. There is an appeal process. Maybe you need to consult a lawyer for help.
