Oh, and yes, he is from Tunisia.  A high fraud country.

Thank you to everyone who replied without telling me how he was scamming me or judging him as a person based on what I typed on my first post.  I did not mean to scare everyone currently going through the K1 process, I just wanted everyone to be aware that the process is not over once you get your visa.

I hate that he answered the question the way he did.  I hate that an immigration attorney told me that he has no rights until he is in the country so there is no appealing the decision.

There seem to be a lot of questions about the process he and I have gone through to get the visa.  It did take longer than it should have, but that was because of other issues with him getting his paperwork done.  I am not sure how that applies to what happened in the customs office at JFK.

For those of you who have more unanswered question, please let me know again what they are and I will try to answer them.

If he had said, "I really want to marry her but we haven't set a date yet", would that have changed what happened?

To answer some other questions--she wrote cancelled on his visa in his passport and told him that he could apply for another visa.

My fiance was denied entry to the USA on a K1 visa.  It was a nightmare.  I was waiting for him outside of customs at JFK in NY, NY.  The customs agent asked him when we were getting married and he said maybe we will, maybe we won't and she sent him home.  She said he didn't qualify for the K1 visa.  We think she was just looking for ANY reason to send him home.  Practice your answers for entry just as much as you did for the visa interview.  So sad.

I have a nit-picky question about the letters of intent. Everywhere says sign and date them. If the date is typed at the top of the letter (like a typical business letter) do we really need to hand write in a date at the bottom near our signature?

Thanks!

I need help putting a Tunisian address on the K1 visa forms.

I thought I knew how to pick apart the pieces of his address but my fiancé and I kept going around and around in circles about it last night.

Originally he gave me his address as:

Aould majed Degache

Tozuer, Tunis 2611

It is really confusing because I am trying to split the parts of his address up to match what I know of addresses from the USA but it is different in Tunisia. I am not sure if the 2611 should be part of the street name and number or if it is a postal code.

Should it be:

2611 Ouled Majed (street name and number)

Degache, Tozeur (city and province)

Tunisia (country)

Or

Ouled Majed (street name and number)

Degache, Tozeur 2611 (city, province, and postal code)

Tunisia (country)

The I-129F has a place for Postal Code. The G-325A bio form doesn’t have a postal code section for the address. So if the 2611 is a postal code where do I put it on the G-325A?

I feel sort of stupid for not being able to figure out an address. It doesn't help that vowels seem to be interchangeable: Aould vs Ouled. Or that he uses Tunis and Tunisia interchangeably. Frustrating.

Any help you can give is much appreciated.

Thanks!

Thanks so much! It is amazing the huge number of questions that come up.

When my fiance signs his G-325A Biographical form and his intent to marry letter, should he sign it in Arabic (he is from Tunisia) or English or both?

Thanks so much for this website. It is a wonderful resource!
