Fiance did not get visa b/c of insufficient evidence

[4clife 0]

Hi everyone!! I need your help. My fiance had his interview today, but did not get his visa because they said he did not have enough evidence. I know my fiance before I came to the US 11 years ago. I went back in 2003 to see him and had picture we took in that year, however, we prove up for no apparent reason,long distance was a challenge. Recently we decided to get back together and take this relationship to another nothch. I visited him July of last year and he proposed to me. I went back to see him April of this year. Financially I'm good b/c I made 35k, plus I have don't have any children. I don't know what's their reason for saying he did not have enough evidence.

They told him they are sending the case back to the State, so for those that can help, what happen in a situation like this?

Thank You!!

You will need to see the paper that your fiance was given but I would tend to agree with Ricardo, they are saying you don't have enough bonafide evidence. What did he show? What did they say will happen next (ie opportunity for second interview, case sent back etc)?

See what the paper says and go from there, they did not believe y'all the first time. Need lots of evidence on the rerun.

They feel the relationship is for the purpose of immigration benefits.

The best thing to do in this case is withdraw the petition and file a new one and do a better job of documenting your realtionship. whatever you did, do more.

I do not suggest getting married and filing for a CR-1. Getting married is no guarantee of a visa and then you are married. Your visa was not rejected because you are not married so getting married is not a solution.

That sucks to hear. I am sorry.

What evidence did you provide to show the consulate?

Countries like Nigeria are notoriously picky and you really need to have bullet proof case when finance has interview at consulate.

If you can, find out from your fiance what questions were asked. Support of Evidence usually means

1. Must provide a Letter of Intent (updated) from you (the petitioner)

2. Financial capable (i-134 form) with supporting documents

3. Evidence of on-going relationship.. I would highly recommend tons of print outs from chats, phone logs, skype or anything to prove you are constantly talking.

All the best

I do not agree.

It could be months before you get the official decision. There is no timeline for processing denials.

If you want to pursue this as quickly, cheaply and easily as possible, then send a certified letter to USCIS withdrawing that petition and file a new one. Prepare better for the interview next time. By the time of that interview you will know what the reasons are and can better prepare. Filing a second petition is also good evidence of a bona fide relationship in itself.

ANYTHING else you do will take longer, cost more and be far more difficult. Currently the service centers seem to have imporved their speed, you could possibly have a new approved petition before you would even get the decision on the old one.

how can they determ what is real and what isn't when at the same time you proved that you have a past together.

Based on the immigrarion officer's decision. Showing/proving that one have a past together means nothing otherwise all cases would be approved. It's more asking along the lines of.. "is that relationship bonafide" etc. All cases placed before the IO is viewed the same and the burden of proof for immigrarion purposes are left to the petitioners and those who benefit.

He said he did not get a slip and they are sending the case back to the US.
