She was previously engaged and applied for a visa with someone else and was denied December 14,2011. We met 6 months ago and we are serious. She told me she was tired and confused at the interview and answered incorrectly. I have talked with her relatives her friends and co workers and they all tell me the same thing. She has a sister in the US who also tells me the same. Her NBI clearance shows no derogatory record.I don't know how the embassy could make that assumption with out proof

Okay so you met 6 months ago. Knowing how slow the process is.. you filed immediately after meeting?

What question was she asked? and what did she answer?

Do you send her money? If so, stop. This is a common scam to get money from an American. Contact the embassy yourself (via email or whatever) and ask about the interview. One guy did this found out his fiancee never even attended the interview and he was and had been being played for money (money for a medical she never attended, money for a hotel for the interview she never attended, money for travel there when she never went, money for the visa fee... you catch my drift).

We need more facts before we can really help.

**Edit - if she IS using you (or even if she isn't) then of course her friends and family would lie to you about her being a prostitute). They want her in the US earning American money to send home.

She was denied an K-1 visa less than a year ago with another man, you met and immediatly filed the fiance visa?

Is this correct? I'm not judging it is just you gave such little info that we are trying to help you.

Please explain, what was the misunderstanding? What was the quesitons and the responses

I am sorry for your denial but give us more info for better answers

good luck

I appreciate all of the response so far. Okay let me try to add some history here so maybe I can get some suggestions and some help rather than just criticisms. We met 6 months ago and we talk almost everyday morning noon and night. She has a married sister living in the US for the past 3 years who I also talk with on a regular basis. Also spoke to her husband who met the entire family. The both assure me she is a good girl and comes from a good family. The subject never came up until recently when we began getting real serious with each other. She told me about being denied a fiance visa on Dec 14, 2011 with another man. She emailed me the documents showing the reason for denial and when I saw that I was shocked. She is also very upset to be considered a prostitute when she has never been involved in that kind of work and has not worked in any bars. She works in an internet cafe. She is from Samar but now living in Angeles City. I think the interviewer already believes she is working in a bar just because she lives in Sin City. So at the end of the interview he began to ask her about her work and kept on insisting that she works in the bars as a prostitute even though she kept on denying it until she says he started to talk very loud accusing her and she became very scared and nervous and said yes just to end the interview. i have yet to visit her in the Philippines and I have not applied for any sort of visa. I am thinking to marry her there and try a spousal visa. I only sent her money for her birthday so she could buy a gift and have a cake and some foods for her friends and relatives. I attended the party myself via web cam. Sorry this is so long

Thanks for more info but I still think there may be more to the story, OP. Why was she denied last time with the other man? It may be a combination of her first denial and then of course her admitting to prostitution. Pressured or not, she said "yes".

My advice, get a GOOD lawyer who specializes in Immigration and waivers. Expect to pay a LOT of money. There were a LOT of red flags to begin with that didn't help your case. Your lawyer is going to have to address ALL of them. The first denial AND her admitting to prostitution.

Good luck OP, you are going to need it..

EDIT: Wait, I missed this. You said you have yet to visit her in the PI? Have you actually met her in person??

You also missed that admition of prostitution was when she tried for K-1 firrst time in 2011.

OP did not petition for her yet, he is just concerned that previous denial will play role if he starts the process now.

We have not met and I never applied for her visa. I plan to visit the Philippines after the beginning of the year to meet her and her family

What does OP mean?? Don't forget I'm new to all of this. Thanks

OH! Okay, NOW I understand. Coffee hasn't kicked in yet. Sorry for my scatter brain.

[canadian_wife 1,818]

You have not met? I assume she was not applying for a K-1 visa at the interview, there is no way your petition would have gotten that far

What visa was she applying for?

Good luck

[mx65 0]

She only applied for a fiance visa one time and was denied

[canadian_wife 1,818]

Ah gotcha, so she applied for the fiance visa with this other guy, was denied due to Prostitution and now you two are engaged but have not file for any sort of visa.

But she did say yes, she admitted to the prostitution.

It is lawyer time, I suggest Laurel Scott, she is an expert in inadmissability. She offers free chats on wednesdays

good luck

Just FYI, there's a new breed of "prostitution" going on here in the Philippines, which is prevalent in some provinces, that is the "cyber-sex dens". Women are employed in an "internet cafe" sort-of environment where they do "shows" for their foreigner clients via webcam.

OP by the way means Original Post or Original Poster (the person that started the thread). Any woman that works at either a bar or net cafe will be placed under SEVERE interrogation for the exact reason that tripped up your girlfriend. Anyone that has engaged in any form of prostitution (even if legal in the country of origin) cannot be issued a visa to enter the US. Living in Angeles only makes her even more suspicious. The best you can do is when you apply for a visa waiver. You may have to wait until your own application has been denied though before you can apply for a waiver. Given this problem you may need a lawyer.

When she was denied, was anything written in her passport and/ or was she given any papers to sign and if so, what do they say?
