Denial Notice Sent (K1)

[ThomLin 0]

i haven't done the paperwork for my wedding in nepal will the wedding pictures be sufficient to file i-130?

Do you mean the marriage certificate and stuff? You will need alot more than pics to send in with the 130. Start here:

Good Luck

To the OP,

I just read your whole thread...wow Im sorry that you guys hit a bump, but it sounds like it may be easily remedied you have a wonderful attitude and Im sure you guys will make it through this time and it will pay off when you live together finally

Thank you Habibitik.

I received the hard copy of my denial and USCIS made an error. Called USCIS and they are gonna look over my case and let me know in 45 days. We are not waiting for another 45 days and going to file I-130 ASAP.

Here is the details of the reasoning they used to deny my case.

The notice stated " A review of the record reflects that the petitioner did not initially submit sufficient documentation to establish that the petitioner and beneficiary have personally met as required under section 214(d) of the Act."

Further "The petitioner marked the box "no" under Part B, question 18 of the Form I-129F, which reads " Has your fiance(e) met and seen you within the two-year period immediately receding the filing of the petition?" In addition, the petitioner stated, "We have not seen each other in two years as she moved to Dubai UAE to work, I refuse to fly anywhere near the Middle East due to our country's situation in the Middle East."

This statement is totally false and I did not include any statement like that in my petition. My fiancee has never been outside Nepal. So I think USCIS made an error and denied my petition.

i included all the details of our cultural and social practices and engagement pictures. the statement i submitted with I-129F goes like this

I am planning to marry Sunita Bajracharya soon. So, I have attached the original statements from both of us stating that we intend to marry within 90 days of her arrival in the U.S.A. The requirement that we must have met should not apply to us because it is an arranged marriage and in our culture it’s voluntary for the couple to meet before the wedding. Also because of the cost of travel and my work schedule I could not manage to travel back to Nepal to see her.

We have been in a relationship since February 2008 and we have been communicating with each other through pictures, online video meetings and phone. We were engaged on March 12, 2009. According to arranged marriage tradition of Newari culture a groom should not be present during the engagement ceremony. The engagement ceremony is called “Gway Yankegu”. This ceremony is organized and arranged by my family and her family members. I have attached the copies of Newari wedding customs in separate sheets. I have also attached the pictures of engagement ceremony and one of our online conversation sessions.

$455+4.5 months+USCIS error = case denied.

we are still under control and patiently waiting for our reunion soon.

Good luck Dipesh!!! I'm glad that my post works for you to get some answers from our VJ Family... I hope everything be exellent for you and your SO.

God bless you!

Thanks so much Hkgaur!!!

we going to refile, after all the investigation, is the best option, yea We know we have to wait again 6 months but is more sure that we can get an approval, an appeal is more expensive and can take longer is a huge risk...

Thanks for your comments, you are so sweet, I wish for you the best on your journey, God bless you friend!

Linda

I want the refiling to go as well as possible for you two. As ridiculous as it sounds, if you re-file your application you are going to fall under the IMBRA waiver requirements. This shouldn't be a hurdle for you based on the background of the case. Just make sure you read the filing requirements on this site carefully. You've seen what happens if you take the application process lightly, but now that you have found this site, make use of the information in it. Best of Luck to you both!!!!
