@Greenbaum, the problem is I hve already put the word out on the letter I submitted with my I-129 application & a photo too. . But good thing is that there was no function, ceremony nothing . So I’ll just hve him show the 3 photos ( that’s all we hve ) we have if they ask. If they don’t ask then no worries 

I have the same issue.. I had a roka party with close family and friends.. and we mentioned it in our petition.. now I’m curious as to will it cause any trouble?

Hi,

I have a similar situation as yours. I've had 5 years b1/b2 visas twice and I used to go to the states quite often. During my last trip, i stayed for a longer time than usual, but i didn't overstay my I-94. I tried going for summer vacation again last year to visit family, my fiance & meet his mom as well  but the CBP officer said he suspects I have a job in the US(which was false). He also added that he believes I'm coming to stay permanently and work in the US, so he  gave me the options of withdrawal of entry or a 5 year ban. I then agreed to the withdrawal of entry, B2 visa got cancelled and I got sent back to another country in Europe. 

Fortunately, my fiancé had previously visited me in my home country 2 months before I tried to return his visit in the states so we immediately started working on the K1 application since we had already planned on getting married in 2019. The petition got approved by the end of the year so we're now waiting for case number from NVC.

Therefore, I doubt the red flags would be that much of an issue especially if your relationship is genuine and you're honest when VO asks you questions about the previous red flags during the interview.

 

Goodluck 😉

Good to know that I’m not alone, the experience of going through at the airport was nothing more than a nightmare!! I will never wish that even on my worst enemy .. I’m still awaiting for my noa2 after rfe that was replied to In December .. I guess mine is a hard embassy to go to .. this process has been really hard on us since we haven’t met each other since 6 months now.. just hoping to be with him soon..

very happy for you though and wish u and your fiancé all the happiness and Luck in the world. 

Does anyone have more suggestions to my case?? ^^

What was ur noa1 and noa2 date @AMAR786

Thanks for the wishes.. and all the best for everything ahead  @Katherine Vega

@Katherine Vega I’m in a similar situation as you.. awaiting RFe response.. this wait is killing me! This is one of the hardest things ever in life.. I can’t believe it’s been almost a year and  I still did not receive my noa2. 

Were there any red flags in your case?  @mangy

Waiting for rfe response!!  😣

March filer still waiting our noa2.. it’s killing me 😭😭

Hi could someone tell me how long does it take to get response after rfe? It’s been over two weeks ans we didn’t hear anything yet.. got an rfe asking to provide wedding preparations, receipts and additional evidence..!! Does someone know that is this delay cz of holidays? 

Got rfe to prove we made any specific marriage arrangements.

Thank you I hope everything goes well and I can finally be with my love.. this process has been brutal! 

Hello,

 Just wanted a little insight on my situation. I had b1/b2 visa through which I had multiple visits to my extended family but always came back before time never overstayed. While on my last visit back in early 2016 When I tried to enter CBP officer went through my phone and suspected that I was working and spending too much time there he gave me option to withdraw my entry and sent me back on a plane.. while I was there my f1 for my masters was already in process and I tried to enter through b1/b2 ( my mistake) and this happened. When I came back I applied for my f1 but it was denied for obvious reasons. Now  in early 2017 I started talking to my now fiancé and he came to my home country to visit me three times and got engaged  and we applied for a k1 this year. We are same religion, same age , no previous marriages and  have three trips of him visiting me and have a bunch of proof. But with my previous attempts I am a bit concerned of it being a red flag and can cause denial at the interview?

what can we do to make the CO see our genuine intent to get married and being together.. ? 

Applied after 6 months time f1 of visa cancelled and b1/b2 after 9 month after applying f1

I had a b1/b2 visa and used to frequently visit my relatives in the US at my last visit I was denied entry at the POE and the officer cancelled my b1/b2 and gave me option to withdraw my application which I did and cancelled my b1/b2. He thought I had intentions to work there because of my frequent visits but that's not true.

after a while I applied for a f1 and got denied and applied for a b1/b2 again because someone in the family died and I wanted to go be with the family and but it was denied as well.

my question is would all this affect my possibility of a potential k1 or cr1?
