Hi everybody. My fiance and me we couldn't meet each other again after we sent the packet for K1 Visa,  of course, we keep in communication everyday. My question is: Will I have some problem in my visa interview in the embassy for that? We met twice before we sent the packet.  Some personal experiences and some advices. Thanks for your answers.

Meeting in person for the past two years is ok, but it is also very important to show how the relationship is ongoing, prepair yourself with information for the interview. For example if he sends you money through western union during the watting period, it is a very good proof of on going relation ship, as well as sending birthday presents and loving letters through currier, also keep all your whats app or social media chats and interactions, try to prove to them your relationship is bonafide and true. I´m in the same situation, they don´t know your, they believe everybody has a scam relationship. You have minutes in the interview to proof them you have a bonafide relationship, and a k1 packet. Good luck!

You know this can go either way. Depending on the embassy. Some embassies could see this as a " red flag scam". Like the beneficiary could be after the USC petitioner just because this one pay their bills, buys them stuffs, bankroll them etc. Will this prove an honest and legitimate relationship? 

In my case, I never accepted money for nothing from my then USC BF/fiance (now husband) during our long distant relationship.  I had a job and I could support myself so there was no need for me to ask for money nor I wanted to. But that is me. Others may feel otherwise.

He insisted a few times and I rejected the offers because that is how I was raised in my family. I could understand getting flowers or an occasional gift (nothing too crazy expensive of course) during the courtship. But when one starts sending money on a daily basis to the other side of the world you really need to know the person VERY well to avoid a scam.

I have seen cases online that a foreign BF/GF start asking for money to the USC almost immediately and some men fall in that trap.  Just wanted to add my 2 cents.

I understand that, I should have explained myself more.
I have a friend who did not have a job, and his petitioner sent him money and the Ebassy got that ok, they believed you do not send money to someone you do not love for real.

In my case my relationship is eight years old, my fiancee lived in Argentina almost all his life, we lived together years and after a 2 years trip trough latin america, we decided to visit our families, mine back in Argentina and he decided to visit his in New York. It took us 4 months to get the packet done and 7 months already we are away from each other. And he visited me last May 2018. I have no job right now, but have no money issues,  anyways he wants to send me money each month. Do you think this could be an Issue? 

If we can, as I can not travel to the U.S because of the K1 process, we would like to travel to Europe, so we can see each other again during the waitting

Sending money is not a proof. I can send you money via western union few times. Does it mean we're a couple? ;)
