I had my K1 visa interview, and was put on 221g for additional documents and oath.

today had my re-interview done. The consular asked many question right from how i went to USA, where i wrked, how i met my fiancee, to her personal life, her family and her friends. In the end was told that she will grant me visa and will get my passport in 2 weeks.

I was lucky to get to know few facts that the CO revealed to me explaining what can make them think that the relation is fake, which would be like the CO asks u the same thing twice in different ways, and if your statements doesnot match, it raises the ques, also if u give any information in 1st round and miss on it during the re-interview.

So my advice to all would be, go prepared, not like u learn the answers, but be natural, know what u r saying and understand the question, ask to repeat if necessary. Be honest and Pray..

May God be with all..

from what you said you case has no red flags....but they might have told you why they denied visa ...i mean reason with detail....any mismatch in information you said in interview and evidence you submitted to them on paper....please work on why they felt that this is not genuine relationship....once you rule out solid and precise reason of your refusal....anybody can give you advice

Immigration race- the reason i was given was that there is no proof of ongoing relation, where-in i presented the telephone records, gmail chats, engagement pics which happened just 3 months before the interview. The CO asked me where is my fiancee now, that she came to india, and i told her she flew back to resume her job. rest no other reason was given for the denial. This is why i am bit confused.

Hi, First please provide detail of everything ....what they asked during interview....did they ask you for any documents....have you failed to submit any evidence of ongoing relationship.....tell us everything.....then help will be on its way....thanks

I was asked to explain hw me met, and that was when we were working together in USA, and same shift so came closer. Met family, decided to get married, I was on J1, got the waiver, and started the petition for K1. thay did not ask for any documents then, as had submited them at VFS nearly 2 weeks prior to interview. I had the phone records, letters, g-mail chats, facebook posts, her travel itenary to India, our engagement pics that happened in India last december and other pics from Agra, Shimla etc. I was denied the visa. then i protested at DHS, and suddenly got the reply after embassy telling me that my file has gone to USA, that now my case is under sec 221g, that is submission of documents and oath.

please help what other documents can i show and what is this case all about

Could someone please tell me if they experienced or heard or read anything where the visa is denied and then suddenly put on sec 221g an what were the outcomes.

I mean how does the embassy work, what they wanna see and what exactly is my case like, where 1st was denied, nd then on protest was put on sec 221, documentation.

Thank u for your reply, actually i was told earlier that the petition has been sent to DOS, but then we filed the protest and finally were told, its under sec 221g. I would be going with everything i have by this thursday. and there was no time frame mentioned, just appear at the embassy with all the paperwork in person on any working day at 8:30. this is very much confusing

Hi all,

I gave my interview, and with the passport was given the denial that Visa cannot be granted as there is no proof of ongoing relation. Immediately the case was filed in for revoke and we protested at the DOS, and in response were told that embassy has put our case under 221g, pending submission of documents and oath. everything happened withing a period of 1 month, the denial, protest and the sec 221 g.

Could anyone please help as in what this means, what should i be doing, and what documents should proof the ongoing relation and what shall be the time frame in this scenario.

Thank You
