    Do I need to file I-601 or I-212?

    Sidp69: Long story. I filed I-601and I-212 myself but got denied because of lacking of "extreme hardship". You need a third person in US licensed to prove that you are "extreme hardship". For example "Psychological evaluation". If you get denied, don't try to appeal the case in court rather than file I-601 and I-212 again. It saves you time to do so. The immigration attorney in US don't even know that. I had to tell the attorney to withdraw from the appeal court which took additional 2 months delay. I spend almost $3000 for immigration attorney, and $750 for Psychologist. The I-601 finally approved in October, 2010. Good luck! We suffered 2+ years for this stupid mistakes.

    "You were engaged to a USC and were planning to get married tomorrow no files or petitions were found on your behalf." That's the problem.

    I had very similar situation that the POE officer alleged my girl friend had intention to stay in US and got 5 years ban. She never entered US before. I think you need to file K1 and after interview with embassy, they'll tell her to file I-601. It's going to be a long process. Good luck!

    I'm a USC. My girl friend and I visited US together in late Oct. 2007. She got a removal due to the immigration officer alleged her intention is to remain in US with a B1/2 visitor's Visa. That's a 5 years ban under sections 212 (a)(6)©(i), 212(a)(7)(i)(L). We took the next flight back to HK at our own expense (return ticket). Then, we got married later that year and I filed I-130 for her. Now, the US consulate interview is scheduled for May, 2009. Do I need I-601 or I-212 ready before the interview? I don't want any more delay if the consulate ask for it. It tooks a year and half to get to this point.

    in K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures

    Posted

    My fiance traveled with me to USA with B1/B2 Visa. However, the INS deport her back before entering US at airport and barred for 5 years under INA 212(a)(9) due to she has intention of staying in US. Can I still apply K1 Visa for her to come? Are there other actions that I need to take? I know I can file K3 Visa for her, but we want to get married in US with my family member present. Please advice.
