My fiance is from Morocco and we applied for the k-1 visa he had his interview 7-16-2012 and they gave him the document I attached below. However they also told him to bring back some papers that he needed translated. I dont understand if our visa was denied or if it just need further review. Does anyone know how long this takes? Thank you.

You have been denied and your case is being returned to USCIS for further review. That is what is clearly stated in your attachment. They don't need any more information from you as it is saying specifically they are returning your case. You are not in AP you were denied. IT is strange they want more documents but also said they are returning the case to USCIS tho...

Im very sorry about that. You need to find out what happened at the interview to cause them to send the case back. What was said to your fiance what questions were asked and how was it responded to? Wish you luck in sorting this out.

Thank you everyone!

I was just confused on why they would ask for my fiance to turn in more paper work if we were denied

What is everyone thinking?

Oh LOL nothing, we are always thinking here on Visa Journey. So, have you discussed what happen during the questioning of the interview with your fiance as to why they denied his visa? This is a very important step for the two of you to try to figure out if he could not answer some of the questions they asked him. Also, how many times have you visited him in Morocco? This is very important when applying for a visa as well. Did you provide all your evidence of meeting and interacting with each other like pictures of the two of you and his family, lots of chat records, phone records, etc.

Well let us know if you need any additional help getting you to the next step, there are some wonderful members here that can help you.

BTW, cute picture of the two of you...

Yeah we have gone over all of the questions he asked him and he answered all of them except the name of my job, but he told him exactly what I do there. Another thing is that he couldn't find the receipt from my ring and he told me the guys body language changed when he told him that he didn't have the receipt. And he also couldn't tell him how many times I have been to Morocco.

I have visited him twice and I am on my way again in two weeks. The reason he asked how many times I have been to Morocco is because my fathers family is from morocco. And I have gone almost every summer from when I was five. It sucks that he asked him that question because I wouldn't be able to answer that question without counting my passport stamps.

We talk just about every day for the last three years using msn messenger and on the weekends we skype chat, we were able to take about half of the chat messages because the other half didnt save in the computer, because before this process I had never thought to save my chat history. He took the chat history that we could get, the skype history, pictures, and copies of my passport stamps along with copies of my ticket for flying.

I think our age might have had something to do with it because we are both young he is 22 and I am 21.

Thank you :)

Does age makes a difference? evenif there are proofs of an ongoing relationship?

I believe the person above you answered that ... But it sounds like in this case it did not make a difference....
