Everyone has to have an FBI name check st some point during the process so your fiance is correct.

Him having a beard has nothing to do with it.

nothing wrong in having a beard it is just some kind of religious tradition and nothing wrong about that. the most imporant that he doesnot belong to any kind of group or hasnot any political activity. and it is so easy for them to know that , so no worry

wish u best

the problem is - americans have a hard time discerning people on the basis of race and culture. They seem like clubbing people into some groups and scrutinizing them..

Not only during visa process but also later on

Don't lump all Americans into the same category. The consulate will not look at the father, they are interested in the fiancé. Everyone goes through FBI namechecks regardless of who you are and where you come from.

I am an American and I am not one of those you have described.

I'm like the rest, I don't think it matters too much about the beard, if its him or his father. Name checks are normal and everybody goes through them at one time or another. Good luck with the process.

You guys are all missing the obvious here.

How would USCIS know that what his father looks like? At no point will you be asked to produce photos of his parents.

Exactly.

And what about the thousands of Mohammeds with beards that already live here? Come on...

Family photos are not needed, just photos of the fiances.

Oh for the love of ..... my USC fiance has a beard, his father has a beard, and so does my brother!

I very much doubt any one gives two hoots what his father looks like!
