Second K1 Different Person/Country & Proof of Stay

[ChristynVic 0]

 

Hello everyone, my fiance and I will be sending our application hopefully this week. I have two last questions to make sure everything is good. This is my second time filing for a K1 Visa(different person & country). My first relationship did not work out. I sent off my first K1 January 07, 2019, it was approved April 2019 he interview that June of 2019, and it went into administrative processing for almost a year. During that time, I noticed a lot of red flags and that this was not the relationship I thought I wanted. A few days after realizing that, I actually received a letter that it was denied(confirmation). It's been over 2 years since my past k1 filing/approval date, I'm wondering do I need any other documents to provide? Also, on the I-129F, it asks if the application was approved. It was approved by USCIS, but it was denied at the Embassy stage after administrative processing for almost a year. Would that still be considered an approval, even though it was eventually denied?

 

 

My second question is; I stayed at my fiance's apartment majority of the time during our stay. When we went to go visit his parents/family in his hometown, we rented an Airbnb for 4 nights. I have the receipt for the Airbnb. Do I need to provide any other information besides letting them know that I stayed at my fiance's apartment during my stay( besides the days we went home to visit his parents/home)?

 

Thank you in advanced for any responses🙏🙂

Was the letter from USCIS?  Did it say "Notice of Intent to Deny"?

It was from the U.S Embassy in Tsibilisi, Georgia. It was a very short official denial letter, stating that the consular adjudicated and refused your visa application, and the case had been sent back to USCIS.

 

 

9 months later USCIS mailed me a letter stating that "..the approved petition was forwarded to the Department of State with the validity of four months. However, the petition was returned to USCIS with a finding that the beneficiary was not issued the requested K-1 visa. The validity period of the petition has now expired.

 

All USCIS action in this matter is concluded as of the date of this notice. "

Thanks for the info.  The question on the I-129F is about USCIS action on the petition, so yes, it still counts as an approval.  You may write something like, "I-129F approved; visa denied at Tbilisi consulate".
