USCIS approves only the petition (ex I-130, I-129F etc), the US Consulate/Embassy from the foreign spouse/fiance approves the visa. Are many reasons a visa can be denied, you just make sure you have all the papers request it for the interview and that you are honest at the interview. Medical exam and the affidavit of support are very important indeed, without meeting the 125% from the poverty line or 100% if you serve in the Army you have no chance. But all the time you can get a co-sponsor, maybe the parents or somebody willing to guaranty for the fiance.

Do not worry to much, read as much as you can about and ask over here or the Consulate/Embassy where the fiance will apply for the visa.

All the luck for you.

Congratulations !

Don't just open your mouth and prove yourself a fool....put it in writing.

It gets harder the more you know. Because the more you find out, the uglier everything seems.

Please let other know what are the reasons.........y its happen?! so starters like me is aware!!

1. FIANCE or FIANCEE finacial status not met below 1.25% poverty line!

2. carrier of any communicable diseases for ex (HEPAB )

As I see it the whole K-1 process is divided into two separate but correlated parts:

1. Petitioner part – preformed by the USCIS which gives permission for a USC to get married to a foreigner in the States

2. The visa applicant part – it is of concern of NVC and the foreign consulate to examine if the alien meets the requirements for entering in USA in accordance with the provisions given by the law - INA

Both parts and both individuals are equally important in different stages of the whole process of course.

As everybody here is aware the NOA2 approval itself does not guarantee visa approval as the alien applicant in many ways may be find ineligible for US visa per se.

In my modest opinion this is normal, logical procedure and makes sense, at least to me.

It’s sad and frustrating I know, being apart, stressed, waiting, scared and under pressure for all this time but it seems that’s the way things are for the matters of bringing “latent” or future USC citizen into the States on a non-immigrant visa based on love, feelings and marriage intentions that is pretty much tricky to prove.

Anyway, I’m happy that this K-1 possibility exists and that the officials and laws provide this opportunity. After all, we’re all humans and if you are honest to yourself and to the officials it will all turn ok (F)

I’m trying to rationalize the whole matter here because I thing it’s the only way for me to stay calm, patient and stable....

AND YES, CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR APPROVAL AND GOOD LUCK FOR THE REST OF YOUR VISA JOURNEY !!!
