Hello all, Thank you ahead of time for your advice on this matter. I will be filing for a k3 visa in january. my wife is from hermosillo mexico. she had her laser visa taken away for 6months due to some paperwork issues during her last filing. she filed for a new laser visa when her daughter turned 15 years old. supposedly, she filed false employment verification for her job in mexico. the immigration officer promptly rejected her application and penalized her 6 months until reapplication.8 months have passed since then, we will be getting married jan 17th and will be filing for the k3 the 18th, will the rejection for the lazer visa be a problem? if so, do I need to request a pardon or? please help me get over this minor bump in the visa journey.

Just fill in the paperwork properly, as your soon to be wife lied on the last paperwork you did they will take a special interest in your case, make sure all your ducks are in a row, fill out everything to the best of your knowledge and for heavens sake do not lie on the application, have evidence in abundence and you should be ok, I do not think you need a pardon for this one, just be honest that is all they require.

thats just it she didn't lie, the officer just wouldn't take no for an answer. it doesnt matter anyways she no longer works at the same place. i was told it wasn't too big of a deal because she only got penalized 6 months.

thanks for your input, i definitely am a stickler for the rules as it is, with this red flag, rest assured i will be extra carefull.

You shouldn't need a lawyer for any of this. Just like Janice said, make sure you complete the paperwork properly, fill in all the blanks truthfully and you should be ok. A previous denial for a tourist visa is not a reason to deny a K3 or CR1 visa, nor is it reason to need a waiver.

Generally true but it does depend on there reason for the rejection. If they've noted a material misrepresentation, there would be an issue. It's not clear to me what might be noted on her record. With more details, the experts in the waivers forum could assist more effectively.
