Greetings..

My fiancée has her visa interview scheduled, and we are starting to make tentative plans... (We are K-1 applicants)

While the I-129f was pending, she visited me on a B-2 for a period of a couple months. I once read somewhere that this might create a requirement for extra security clearances to get the visa (I can't find the website again now). Is this true? Or are those handled later during AoS for the nonimmigrant visa?

In other words, assuming all is "in order" and she is approved at the interview, is there anything that will delay her receipt of the visa?

Thanks!

I'm not sure if having a B2 increases or decreases the chances. I think that the security clearance is basically just a namecheck that happens. I don't think it has anything to do with having a previous visa to the US.
