Well for 1, my fiancé isn't Muslim. So it's completely normal for him to date. 2 she asked my fiancé about people she seen us talk about in our messages which was my Co-worker and my boss, because I'm extremely close with them. My fiancé answered correctly. 3 she asked about me being married before, he answered yes. She never said anything else about that. And she asked about my children from my previous marriage. She asked about our pictures and said how nice they were. She asked who put them together and the rest of the evidence and my fiancé answered. She asked who some of the people were in our pictures and he answered which was our friends. So now you tell me what other grounds did she have to deny us. Our age difference did not play a part nor did she even ask about age. She said verbatim" hmmmm 4 years in a relationship, no marriage and no children, I'm sorry Mr.Annan I cannot grant you this visa. I hate when people try to make something it's not. If there was something there other than what she said, how come she complimented all of the evidence and how nice everything was....[/quote

The sad part is that in any other embassy this would be completely normal only Ghana would perceive this as visa fraud. It just doesn't make sense our interview is this Wednesday and I am praying because this embassy is something

Oh and let me add, she did that because she had the authority too. Not the infamous KM, but another middle aged black lady. Thank you!!

When my now husband went last year for his K-1 interview he had the same lady...very difficult. I was there and was drilled more than he was. We were denied...grounds.....she had her doubts. She was very rude to us and I was actually floored at how people there were treated. Anyway...we got married a week later.

I wish you the best and I do know how you feel.

Ms ChelAnnan31, sorry for your fiancee's visa denial. However, for members to give well informed pieces of advice, it is important to let us know whether you were personally at the interview proper. Did you personally hear the CO's questions and your fiancee's answers? Or, this is all your fiancee told you transpired between him and the CO?

No, I didn't attend the interview. But how much of a dummy do you all think my fiancé is? He came out 2 seconds after it was over. But the interview was Wednesday, after being asked was I there and why wasnt I in the building with him he was asked to come back the next day and that I was able to attend. Unfortunately I stood in the line and because my name wasn't on the paper I could not attend..

Rather I attended or not, she knew I was there...as I stated before she just did that because she could. I'm frustrated, so sorry..

OK just the way you wrote the thread sounded like you were there.

Difficult to comment without knowing the totality, usual comment is to marry and go CR1.

“If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle.”

Don't know what people try to insinuate by posting "hmmm interesting". It was very clear in your initial post that you were there but not present in the interview. Obviously he narrated to you what happened. Have you contacted your senator yet to ask for a second interview ?

Thank Ebunoluwa, I thought I made myself clear in the beginning but to those of you who didn't read sorry..

AnaKarina this is far from hostile sweetie... I think your consulate was Dominican Republic, so u wouldn't understand the frustration and the corrupt these people here do.

Is there a large age difference? Does he have any children? Are you still within child bearig age? THese are possible issues.

But all in all Ghana is very very difficult. Do your best to get another interview while you're there. Otherwise, may have to marry and file CR1.

Wish you the best. I know just how you feel.

I'm not even middle aged, just 31. And no large age difference. And he has no kids but we were planning to have a baby as soon as he was able to come. I just don't want to have a child and him not know his father. I've seen this before and very sad when a fathercan't be with the child he helped create.

Totally responsible and understandable! So sorry you are going through this!
