Where would my fiance go for interview?

[CrystalDream 0]

My fiance is from Iraq and works and lives in the United Arab Emirates. We are confused: If hopefully when we start our K-1 Visa application -- if it's approved, where would he have his interview? This is a big concern for us because it will be very difficult for him if he needs to travel outside the United Arab Emirates to Amman, Jordan or Casablanca, Morocco or Turkey for an interview. (We heard those are possible places.)

This is a big concern to us. I know Iraqi nationals need to maybe go to Jordan or Morocco, but what about others who live and work in other countries like the UAE such as my fiance? Does anyone have information about this?

Thank you very much.

I can throw out a guess for you

It would probably depend on how UAE defines residency there. If they consider him to be a UAE resident, UAE would likely process it...but I wouldn't think they would HAVE to. If they decide not to accept the case, I would count on it going to Amman.

Agreed.. if he is legally resident in the UAE, then Abu Dhabi will likely process the visa. Did you put his address in the UAE on the petition.... If so it will go to Abu Dhabi first.. they will then probably ask him for some documentation on his legal status there. Once they are satisified, they will process the case.
