I think this is a denial since shes herself on social security that means govt pays her money for own expenses... Joint sponsors are not accepted anymore for k1 category visa i guess..

Can you provide a DETAILED transcript of what happend at your interview?

what questions were asked and what your responce was? (This gives a better understanding of what the red flag would be)

you mention that the joint sponsor gets a social secuity check? Once again not sure what the issues are with the case to beging with but if you think that it was due to this then. How much is the income of the Petitioner? (person sponsoring you) and why do you need a joint sponsor? who is the joint sponsor and why do they get social security?

Immigration department does realize that some people who are filing for K1 visa or CR1 were previously Students and during educaiton they might not have had a job thus it is ok to have No imcome prior year, however during the sponsoring time they also ask for past 3 months of pay stubs. purpose of that is to show that you NOW have a job and are projecting to make more then the poverty guidlines. Basically need to show proof that the income is over $24,000 for the year.

Couple of things that the embassy will look further into is, Education, Age, Race, Demographics of 2 individuals beneficiary and petitioner, Career path. These are all aspects that are reviewed, the background check also goes into the review of a persons credibility to repay credit. NO one can tell why you are in AP or how long you will be in ap. some peopel never get out of AP or are stuck in it for 3 to 5 years!

anyways good luck!

Social Security is something that everyone pays into but only get if people meet a certain catagory. Regardless of the situation people who are on Social Security are already a public charge and thus the beneficiary is also to become a public charge. The USCIS would probably frown upon that. I would suggest getting a job and getting off of social secuirty. I have not seen many people with low income get K1 visa hopefully I am wrong and someoen can tell me otherwise.

Besides that good luck!
