So u cant call eachother husband n wife? Wow! Thats retarded lol i guess we better stop doing that... Altho we also mention our excitment about getting married. Its just natural to say "husband" or "wife" wen ur engaged

Yes fiance and I do this all the time but mostly in private chat!

It's not natural, IMHO.

In our culture, Yoruba, Oko Afesono = Fiancee, Iyawo Afesono = Fiance, Iyawo, Wofe, Oko = Husband.

I don't see any problem calling your fiance husband, we have legally paper work that said that we are NOT marry, so what is the big deal.. Not everything in Facebook is true.. thats stupid

I suggest that you rethink this process. It's not what we think that matters as much as what the ConOff thinks.

[Mel&Lal 12]

Yes and we discuss this last night and both of us desided that it's best to stop calling each other husband/wife. Rather be safe than sorry!

[GJ&Rach 12]

while I can understand the temptation to start calling eachother husband and wife before you are actually IN the US on the visa, I don't understand why you would continue to argue and risk it when you are told it may put your application at risk. If this is something you really want/need, why would you take ANY risk of being turned away? it just doesn't make sense to me...there's No way I'd do anything to jeopardize my process no matter how stupid it seems to me.

This might sound strange but do they google you at all for background information?

Lets say the U.S. resident has an IMDB page or a Wikipedia page. Does anyone know if they bother with these things?

Lol, I hope so. If they Google me, they'll find plenty of information to see our bona fine relationship.

It's not just during the interview, you can even get denied at POE if you say husband/wife, there is a story on here about a fiancee from China getting sent back from LAX for it. The border agent said "wife" to me and I corrected her, and she sounded like she made an honest mistake, but who know's if she was trying to fish information out of us.

Start thinking like a lawyer. Words have specific meaning. Husband = man to whom you are married.

Fiancé = man you are to marry.

Same for Wife and fiancée.

This is why it's so important to know how to be articulate.

First Calm Down.... Vanessa&tony,

You dont know me i dont know you, we are just discussing a TOPIC and you' re just going at me. I DO have proof that I'm single...

In Spanish culture you dont call nobody "fiance" the said my husband or wife... Marry or Not. Thats culture.... you said that I'm "SILLY" like I said something about me calling my Fiance husband? , I said that was Stupid for the USCIS to go in base of that... so Calm Down.

In "Spanish" culture we say "comprometido/comprometida". That's accurate. Those of us who speak Spanish, say this. And I can assure you that in Spain, who are actually Spanish mind you, they say this when referring to someone as their "fiancé/fiancée".

Esposo/Esposa is the correct term for being married. Meaning "Spouse".

It's been a very informative thread, both educational in culture as well as immigration.

Not sure why that would be upsetting to you.

Latino/a is not Spanish. See? Now you're beginning to see how being articulate is important.

And to this proud latina I say, be humble, and learn something from those of us that have come before you and have some wisdom.

Before me..... GOD!!!! you have issuess.... LMAO....

At my husband's I-130 interview, they asked him who "My Grandma's Name" was. At no point in any paperwork did I ever mention her.

Only things I can come up with is they somehow found that she was a co-signer on my car loan years ago and figured that should be an important person in my life so my husband should know who that is. Or they looked on his facebook page and my facebook page and picked a random mutual friend.

I have no idea?!?!

Threre was a RUB lady on VJ a while back who said her husband's facebook page was opened on the CO's computer during the interview.
