What happens to the beneficiary's visa hopes (in every sense of the word going forward) when the petitioner decides to cancel the k1 fiance application? Kindly note that said application is still on pending (I'm assuming, kindly correct me if I'm wrong), meaning that it was sent to the USCIS, and said beneficiary only received the NOA1 stating acknowledgement of said application. So to be more specific, what happens to the beneficiary's hopes of applying for anything at the US embassy again? For example, a student visa, tourist, or even a fiance visa again?

Assuming an engagement is broken off and no action is taken on the K1 visa by petitioner or beneficiary.

 

It's just dead.

 

The beneficiary will have to declare if asked if there was a petition ever filed on their behalf.

 

It happens a lot, people get engaged and then separate.

 

There is no negative or positive to it as far as I can tell.

 

 

Now playing devils advocate the beneficiary intent is trying to circumvent the line by applying for a visa that they can get right away (for example students visa) and the interviewing officer or the CBP at border figures out that they are just trying to get in the US and marry the same fiance that applied the K1 petition for them just a little bit ago then they will be in some hot waters.

Thanks for the swift response and brilliantly written too.

 

In this context, the beneficiary literally wants to move on with his life. He didn’t end the K1 process. She did! So, there’s no talk of circumventing the line.

 

Lets say an opportunity came to study in the same United States of America. Is the now former beneficiary legally able to apply to schools without fear of rejection due to the K1?

 

Is said beneficiary even going to have to explain to the interviewing officer about the K1 process ? Would that even come up at border control?

You can always apply.  There is never a guarantee of approval.....especially for a non-immigrant visa after there has been established immigrant intent.  There would have to be strong evidence that you intend to return to your country after your studies.  Even then it is at the discretion of the interviewing officer to recommend approval. 

 

Please don't ask this again in a new post.  Thanks.  One duplicate thread removed.

Consulate Officers can smell desperation

“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.”
