What was the reason they denied the K-1? you will have to know that and fix that or they can potentially deny the CR-1 for the same reason.

[amykathleen2005 441]

I am not positive but this sounds like it would be a NOID or a NOIR. They are telling you that they denied you original petition and they won't do anything with the second until you address their concerns. Hopefully you will get an answer as to why it was denied.

[Heather Rae 2]

My opinion is they telling you that the K-1 expired and you said you were denied so you can't file to reopen your K-1 cause it has expired but you don't qualify for k-1 any more since you are now married... you have to file cr-1 but it would be good to know why your K-1 was denied so you can make sure you won't have the same problem during this process of a cr-1....

[Wayne and Claudia 40]

Without predjudice is good since it basically means they won't hold the K-1 petition against you. As others have asked, you should know why you were denied for the K-1 (by law the CO has to give a reason upon denial) and to correct that.

I believe you would have been told at the time you were denied? Were you not given a reason back then?

I was just told by Co that she didn't believe our relationship and that she is sending our case back for review.We have know each other for 2 and half years now.The only thing is that my wife is older than me.Apart from that,i answered all questions and had all the needed evidence.My wife visited me again last year after i was denied and will be visiting this year before my Cr1 and will go with me to the embassy.
