So my fiance had his interview today and it went fairly ok...

I only got to talk to him for a couple of minutes on the phone but I still want to get an idea of whats going to happen from you guys. My dads income did not meet the income requirement to be his sponsor and I have only been working for a couple of months and they told him I had to have been working for at least a year...BUT here is where I am confused: They DID keep his passport. Does that mean anything? or do they keep everyones passport? They also gave him another document and told him fill it out and send it by UPS...Can anyone give me a sense or reassurance or tell me if there is still a possibility he wasnt denied? pleaaassse

Not always true. They did not keep my husbands passport at the interview and he was not denied. They requested it later when they were ready to approve and issue it. No forms for more info, no second interview, no fuss - just a call asking him to drop it off.

Sure it is a good sign they kept the passport, however if you do not find your cosponsor they can still return the passport with no visa. Just make sure to turn in everything they request ASAP and all should go well! :)

The form was a 212 (A) (4)....Has anyone else ever received this? I have to now find another sponsor :(

My fiance also received a 212 (a)(4). It's a refusal until you can overcome the public charge inadmissibility. Did the paper they gave him have any other boxes checked, like notes about what you need to submit?

Since they kept his passport, sounds like they will approve it as soon as you get another co-sponsor and present the documents for that.

They didn't keep my fiance's passport, but they kept all the other documents. The paper he received said the petition will be given further consideration if I can show proof of full-time job with sufficient income (but it said nothing about a minimum history of one year at the job) In our case, the CO would not accept the co-sponsor.
