Cancellation of Visa Application: Can we apply a new one immediately after the cancellation?

[Piscean 0]

Can we apply a new K1 visa immediately after we cancel our previous application? Of course we need to wait for the USCIS reply regarding the cancellation.

If ever how long will it take before we can apply a new one?

you need to write a letter to cancel it then you'll have to wait for a response, you can't file right away after you cancel.

Will the 2nd application process will take longer than the previous one since we are denied or we cancelled our application due to not meeting the requirements?

Can we apply immediately?

It takes about two months for USCIS to respond to your written request to cancel a petition. After you get that, you can file a new one immediately, enclosing a copy of the USCIS cancellation response.

Have you been denied? Do you meet the requirments now?

If it's the same two people, why would you need to cancel? That is a waste of the petition fee!

There's a big probability that our application will be rejected so we're thinking to cancel our application.

Does it really take 2mos before they give us reply?

Their application will be denied by statute. At the time they filed, they had not had an in-person meeting within the preceding 2 years. They now meet the requirement.

Whether they cancel it or not, it will not be approved.

I don't see any reason they cannot refile now.

That is what I thought, but the OP made another post with more info, they met again after the initial petition.

We need to cross-link the two posts so we have the whole story!!!

Try reading it carefully on the right post to know the story.

Try posting a coherent story in one place some time without posting conflicting fragments in different threads.

By the way...you arent applying for a visa, but are submitting a petition. If approved, the beneficiary will be advised that she is eligible to APPLY for a visa.

Yes

No, "applying for a visa" is something you do after a petition is approved and you receive an invitation to do so from a Consulate abroad. If you withdraw a petition, you may file another immediately but they'll still have a record of the filing you withdrew. Why do you want to withdraw the petition and file another? The answer will have a lot to do with whether doing so will be successful.
