Typically, the CO will already know the answer. If they ask, tell them the truth. If they ask names, give names. If your relationship is genuine, and you have enough to show for that, I wouldn't stress it so much because your relationship is what the interview is about.

Unfortunatly I have to go with yes. I live here in the US and my brother was trying to come to see his niece who he didn't see since she was born and he wants to learn about the culture here and be in my in laws you when they renew the oath again. My brother still didn't finish high school and this year is the last year, so personally I wasn't going to let him stay here. I have a sister, aunt and 2 uncles. My brother went for an interview and the lady asked him if he has any relatives. He said yes. She told him you are denied the visa. He said but i'm going with my mom and my dad, and my dad can afford to cover all of our trip. He said why did you deny me? She told him because you have a brother and a sister and they will try to make you stay and get a green card. I honetly felt so discriminated, I mean we were not even thinking about that. the kid didn't even finish high school. Anyways, it got me mad. I got depressed though for a while because I didn't see my family for 5 years and I was going to see him, but they denied it.

your case is different, you are going for an immigrant visa because you are married to a USC. They don't care about the rest of the family. They just ask to see if you are truthful.

what kind of visa was he applying for?

Hi, everyone! Here I am again with a question.

Is it true that if the CO ask you if you have relatives in the USA and you would answer 'Yes' could be a possibly result your visa to be denied? I know this sounds insane but I have heard few of my friends who said it's true. This gave me a scar again since I have 2 cousins in the USA. :-S

Any response would be highly appreciated.

God bless everyone! Xoxo

I DON'T KNOW IF IS TRUE BUT I CAME HERE WITH MY K1 VISA, AND ALSO HAVE RELATIVE LIVING HERE IN THE US...AND IM ALSO MARRIED TO MY THIRD COUSIN AND IT WAS NEVER AN ISSUE. MOST OF THE PEOPLE HERE IN VJ HAVE RELATIVES IN THE US, I WOULDNT BE WORRIED
