Does anyone know if previous visitor and student visa denials can affect the K1 application. We want to start filing from next month. Thanks

My fiance was denied a student visa in 2008 & there were no issues with the K-1. It wasn't even mentioned at the interview.

ROC
08/16/12 - NOA :: 09/13/12 - Biometrics :: 04/12/13 - Approved :: 04/19/13 - GC received

That really depends on the reason for denial.

Say, it was for misrepresentation, then that would affect this new one, and not in a good way.

If it was the standard "we think your going to immigrate so you can't have one" line of denial, then your good to go.

My Advice is usually based on "Worst Case Scenario" and what is written in the rules/laws/instructions. That is the way I roll... -Protect your Status - file before your I-94 expires.

WARNING: Phrases in this post may sound meaner than they were intended to be. Read the Adjudicator's Field Manual from USCIS

Can't speak for anybody else but a dictionary, online or otherwise will get you a more comprehensive answer to such a question. For any of us to do the same would require we use a dictionary then copy and paste the result. Better to do it yourself. Our role might be to explain that the penalty for a material misrepresentation is commonly a lifetime ban from entering the USA, for the foreigner.

Misrepresentation = lying. More or less. It's not EXACTLY the definition but it's when you misrepresent something as fact when it's not fact. When you say "I'm a girl" but really you're a boy that's a misrepresentation. It's submitting false info... it's... yeah. Lying more or less.

Oh wow.. I figured it would be something like that - but more well... intricate. Okay then I'm a little less worried...

Oh jolly officialese - hard to understand legal texts in your native language but foreign - nuh-uh.

Thanks a lot!! All of you. (F) VJ rocks!

And...dictionaries rock. If you had simply Googled "misrepresentation" you would have had a complete and instant definition before you in about 2 seconds. You might want to bear this in mind next time you're curious about the meaning of a word.
