Hi guys, I'm a cr1 applicant I will have my interview soon but I'm a bit worried and nervous... 

I will give u guys a bit of a background story....

i met my husband 12 years ago I was 14 and he was 22 at the time after our first year dating he moved to the states we dated for 4 more year before breaking up 

 

after that in 2012 my mom hooked my up with her friends son who stays in the states we dated for 1 year I applied for a tourist visa to visite him but was denied not to long after that we broke up because he was cheating on my with his so called ex.. 

In 2014 my husband ( back then ex) re connected we got pregnant in 2015 en married in 2016, we applied for cr1 in 2017

do you guys see any red flags?

Why were you denied a tourist visa? Did you apply for any immigration benefits with your ex-boyfriend?

 

Your story sounds unconventional but you are both adults now and free to marry and have a child. Why do you think there would be a problem?

Why u say it sounds unconventional ? 

I was denied because I didn't have enough evidence 

and THE reason why i think that iT has red flags is because i was really young 14 and my husband 22 that's why I don't wanna be judged

I say it's unconventional because it's unusual to get back together 12 years later with the person you were in a relationship with as a teenager. They may ask what prompted the two of you to get back together.

 

Based on your timeline there is nothing to suggest there are any red flags. Aside from breaking up and getting back together are there any other red flags?

 

Immigration aren't there to judge whether your relationship is perfect. They will only care if your marriage is real. It sounds like you have a child to show the two of you are more than just friends.

My pleasure. If that's all your worried about I am sure you will be fine.


Trust me when I say no relationship is perfect. We are all judged.

They won't really be interested in the history from a long time ago. The most relevant part of the timeline is from 2014 on.  I would focus on that as where this relationship started.  Either way, nothing makes it sound like you aren't genuine in any way.
