Basically if you try to lie about your relationship and its not bonified then there will be red flags, as suggested above:

"1. A very brief courtship followed by a plunge into matrimony;

2. A marriage ceremony arranged only a short time after petitioner arrives in the beneficiary’s country and they meet for the first time;

3. No common language;

4. Petitioner resides with family members of the beneficiary in the US;

5. Petitioner is employed by or has a business relationship with a relative of beneficiary;

6. Petitioner submits phone records that show he uses a residential phone number that is listed in the name of another person.

7. US divorce followed very quickly by an engagement to foreign beneficiary is often a red flag for consular officers.

8. There is little or no documentary evidence of the relationship prior to the actual engagement.

9. Long gaps of time between the petitioner & beneficiary being together in person.

10. Failure to disclose previous marriages;

11. Failure to disclose previous petitions filed on behalf of other beneficiaries."

If you have a real relationship with your fiance, then you shouldnt even be asking about this type of question.... you are out there to prove the relationship is real and not just so you can go to the US...

OHHH Our relationship is very valid, Just was wondering what the Goverment thinks is a red flag. Things that seem so real to us ,just may be viewed differently by the CO. We chat twice daily (have log) Phone calls every couple of days,( have bills) Letters sent back and forth, pics of us and with her 2 kids, 2 trips to see her (4 months apart), and will probably have 4 trips total by interview and of course numerous e-mails from each other . So I believe we have everything covered, but was just trying to think what others might consider a RED FLAG.

Thanks for your replies
