Good day everyone,

I am new on here. I am a Nigerian, I live and study in Malaysia. I want to know if it's possible for me to get K-1 Visa here in Malaysia where I study because my fiancee whom I have known for 2 years + visited me here in Malaysia. She went to the immigration is Alaska where she lives for inquiry about K-1 visa and how to bring me over to the states and was given an application to fill and return back with some fees, what I want to know is what happens after she fills and return the application with the requested fees? and also if there is age barrier because she is 47 and am 28, please I need more info and direction on what would be done, what to do and how to go about it so I should start making preparations ahead.

Thank you.

Moore

Good morning , It more than just filling out the forms if you are Nigerian and have a large age difference. Immigration tends to look at all couples with Nigerian background as 419 people. You can file at any embassy you have legal residence to do so from. The process will take 6-12 months so consider where you will be in that time. Visa guides These guides found also at the Guides tab will tell you guys how to assemble a good package. There is a sub Saharan forum where you will find more country specific information. You have 2 "red flag" right away , a third if your fiance is white. That will make them look at your application harder and doubt you at the interview more.

This will not be over quickly. You will not enjoy this.

I think you need to read up more, throughout this forum and especially in the thread the last poster referred you to.

Technically you seem to qualify for the K-1 (I assume your fiance us a U.S. citizen), but there are hurdles, especially in a country where the State Department screens everyone carefully for marriage fraud. They do not have to prove fraud. Instead, you have to prove lack of fraud, and if you can't do that, you don't get the visa It is not an insurmountable obstacle, but there are things that have to be done the right way to overcome that obstacle, and you need to know what they are.

Good luck to you.

Thanks very much, yea you are right about their views towards Nigerians but I think if I have every info to fill for it I see no reason why they would want to deny my request perhaps my fiancee is from the Philippines but and citizen and she is been there for long. Am currently on a 6 months course before my degree here in Malaysia and I would say I still have 2 years or more to here in Malaysia. After reading through K-1 visa Guides I see that they would need prove of our phone calls record but what happens in the case whereby she calls me with a calling card for international calls which appears as invisible call on my mobile and also my the email I was using with then was hacked because we only chatted and email for few months then she started calling till now we only talk over the phone just lately that we are planing to be together after I read K-1 visa procedures I have resigned on a new email but this time we only chat. I am really confused.

Thanks

sorry for the mistakes....am already dizzy.

There has been a lot of issues about contact records with Nigerians. They have their own idea about how often a couple should talk and think everyone must talk like this. There are some phone plans that allow you to print out your records and aren't much more expensive than phone cards. You should also save whatever email,regular mail items between yourself. To file she will need proof of meeting in the last 2 years and proof of a relationship. Being non African is a 3rd red flags. These are things that make them look harder before granting a visa but usually nothing is an automatic denial , other than serious criminal history. If you don't have a lot of phone evidence at the moment you can gather that starting now. How many trips has she made to visit you ? Has she ever met your family ( If no that is a 4th red flag)

This will not be over quickly. You will not enjoy this.

Thanks every much for your contributions, yes I understand what you mean but prove of relationship and I think henceforth my we would start gathering prove of relationship and no she hasn't meet any member of my family only friends because she visited me in Malaysia where I currently study. For now she only made a trip as she is planing to visit with her kids next year if I would still be in Malaysia then.

Thanks once again.
