She is Sikh or you are?

I am a Sikh. and Hindu marriages are very common. My mother and grandmother were from Hindu family.

religion should not be an issue here. or for anyone else.

What did the interviewer focus on when they asked questions?

Was your fiancee denied outright, or given a chance to submit more proof?

CO asked her 3 questions. 1. What is the name and age of my son? 2. What do i do for living? 3. When was the last time she saw me? She answered all those questions right without hesitation. He asked her to wait for few minutes. He returned with a paper of denial reason.

Is she older than you? Is she of child bearing age still?

Paying for her child's college is quite a big financial gift that could be of impact to the decision.

No child bearing age. Financial help, I took the responsibility of the tuition fee etc.

Either that the OP is being used, or trying to buy a wife/family. A husband giving money is seen as a marriage doing what they should be doing with their money, anything other than husband can be viewed as a gift, a purchase, a bribe, etc.

I've even seen people here on VJ who were scammed, didn't realize it til it was too late, then wanted their money back from their Ex-Fiance (In this case, the fiance was from the PI and said she was denied at the interview, she never attended and the USC found out after contacting the consulate to try to find out reason for denial). They were met with "Well you shouldn't have sent someone who wasn't your wife money" or "Even if you loved them, you shouldn't have been sending them A LOT of money" or "That was really nice of you, but she wasn't even your wife."

Sending money to your wife = Legit relationship

Sending money to your fiance or girlfriend (they're really weighed the same) = Alternative motives and generally seen as a poor choice

With all that said though, my husband (fiance at the time) paid most my bills and split half my rent with my father. He bought my daughter all kinds of things and sent me money to buy her school clothes/summer clothes/winter jacket. I'm the USC, the CO could have taken it as he was paying me to bring him into the country. At no point did we mention any financials OUTSIDE of the I-134, as any questions revolving around him sending me money or anything were not asked.

Do you guys have a large age difference and/or cultural/religious difference?

13 year difference. I am older than she is. Hindu/Sikh.

My Fiancee's K1 Visa was denied. The CO gave his reason the relationship is not bonafide. We have been in the relationship for over 5 years. To prove our faithful legitimate relationship, USCIS was provided all the documents such as photographs with her, her children , her family and places we visited with date and time all the receipts such as Hotel, restaurants, train , plane and bus tickets.Including financial support and the receipts of the tuition fee for their school and college for the last 4 years, Numerous other affidavits and documents were provided to prove our relationship is genuine. I do not know what to do.The only way out for me to get married. I am facing other problems such as with my work and time. I suppose i have to think of a better way to resolve the issues. Your inputs, suggestions, and thoughts are most welcome.

Thank you.

My Fiancee' passport, She is the beneficiary.

Is there an issue or could be an issue of renewed passport with the Name of her deceased spouse. She made a mistake online renewal form by answering no changes to be made with the information on the passport.. She is widow and her spouse's name is on the new passport. I was about to schedule an appointment for her interview.

I would like your opinion and suggestions.Should I go ahead schedule an interview appointment or wait till she gets the corrected new passport? On her medical report they have the current passport number, would that be a problem?

Thank you all!!

We'll book a flight on September and my point of entry is Atlanta. Please share your experience about how long will I be on immigration line and interview.we're choosing Detroit or Atlanta,first time to fly.Do immigration officers takes long time for interview at poe?

HI,

------------------------------

I filed for the 3rd time in 3 years.Last time I filed I-129f on June 24, 2015.I received my NOA 1 in June 28th, 2015. Since then I have not heard or received anything yet. I called and inquired about my case on line and also through my senator's office but did not get any where. I am still waiting patiently.. Any Suggestions to speed up the process?.

Hi All,

My K1- 129F petition was denied on Jan 10, 2014. As per USCIS, they mailed a copy of denial letter. So far I have not received a hard copy of the denial letter and the reason is unknown to me. What can i do next? It took a year to get the final decision. Does anyone else have had the denial of k1-129F petition? . My Fiancée is in India, Can she get Visitor Visa to visit me? She does not have lot of assets, money and do not have a job. I have been supporting her and her 2 children. Do you have advice or suggestions for me please?

Well wait 30 days and contact both USCIS and your congresswoman's office again. That is all you can do. You are doing the right thing.

I have not gotten any approval yet my status istill on RFE response review. It is going to be a year on Jan. 26th, 2014. Who so ever is handling my file/case is very slow or that officer have some issues with my case, I do not know that.My caseis beyond the processing time limit.

Hi,

I never receivedf\ a hard copy of the RFE from USCIS. I contacted my Congresswoman about it. Her office received a scanned copy of the RFE and forwarded to me by her office in 2 days after contacted her office.

Not that I am marrying to a mail order bride, I have met her in person 3 years ago and I have the current notarized statement's from relatives, friends and parents who attended my engagement ceremony. I have sent all those pictures to USCIS and I am going to send the statements. As far as being in a small business, only people will understand who are in my shoes. Easy to say the things what can be done or what I should do. I appreciate your suggestions and concerns. I am not in a situation where I can just leave my business and go, I do not make enough to pay for help more over I have lottery business where lot of cash is involved and employees play lottery in the absence of the owner. I have tried in the past, in just 2 days I lost $2000 in lottery and only thing I could do was fire that employee and took a loss. It is not that easy find honest people. I do not have that kind of money to install theft prevention systems and security systems. My whole investment will be on a stake with one wrong move.

I do not understand the concept of only with in the past two years of meeting requirement. It does not mean because I fall in to the category of not meeting the requirement, but here are myriads other that face the same problem and under some circumstances it is not possible to meet in person with in the prescribed time limit. I met my fiancé 3 years ago and after that my situation changed and I am involved in a small business where I have a a problem hiring help and pay, not only that I need trustworthy person where lot of cash is involved in the lottery. Have no other support or family help available to me, so this means if I can not meet my fiancé in person, the current situation I am in, can not get married and can not be unite and USCIS is going to dictate me what to do and what I can and cannot do with my personal life.

Yes i did sent my old pictures and all the other evidence's . I am going thru the hard shiip and currently I can not even think or possibly visit her .

Why does your fiancee not come to you?

I am the Pettioner. She can not get the Visitor Visa.

I met her about 3 years ago.
