DS-160 Question about 'immigrant' petition

Hi all!

 

If you're reading this I hope your K-1 journey is going well!

 

I had some questions regarding the DS-160 for anyone who's completed it?

 

Under previous U.S Travel Information there's this question:

 

  • Has anyone ever filed an immigrant petition on your behalf with the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services? 

 

Now, I've tried to research this question here on VJ and it looks like there's been mixed responses... Some people say that, of course, the initial K-1 petition to USCIS is what they're asking about. Some other people say that 'technically' the k-1 isn't an immigrant petition, but is instead a non-immigrant petition with immigrant intent once adjusted. Some people also mention that because you select 'immigrant visa' when you check the NVC status - that it counts as an immigrant petition for the purpose of the current process?

 

Either way it's all very confusing! I just wondered if anyone had recently gone through the interview/DS-160 process and was asked further questions at interview for selecting either option? Or if anyone generally had any advice for what the question really entails? No-one has ever filed any form of petition on my behalf except for the current K-1 process that me and my fiancé are doing.

 

Thanks!
