Hmm...yes for most of us, the toughest one would be waiting for petition's approval. Some couples really had to wait for months.... my fiance and I were lucky to file through Vermont that we got approved pretty quick.

I've never heard of a K-1 case totally denied....some just needed something more to be provided in order to get approved. Maybe if you declare that you've been using drugs, did lots of fraud and on top of all killed people....then.... you will get denied.....might go to jail even..haha...

It's indeed the toughest part and for me, the most frustrating part. If you won't meet all their requirements, you'll get RFEs that can cause delays. Even though it will take longer time, you'll still get approved once you've complied to all the required documents and evidences. Lucky are those who filed at Vermont because it's known for speedy approvals. As for us who are at CSC, we need to wait for our turns and while it's really hard to keep on waiting, just pray that you'll get the approval anytime now. Good luck!

generaly getting through NOA2 is the toughest, but somtimes cases do stuck into another stage especially at the consulate when you dont cover there requirments and being put on AR unless you complete what they want which it might take longer time. read and educate yourself in advance about those requirments. Good luck :)
