HELP PLEASE!!!!

hey guys im very worried now i actually talk to a friend of my friend who applied for k1 visa also and after 6months of waiting his finance had her interview in the interview gori interviewer asked her at end of interview "have you been niked (nikha) yet, fiancé answered NO! (Which is true) then the interviewer said it is very unusual for an unmarried Pakistani girl to be sent to USA with a man without been niked or married, so for that reason case is denied and go back and file for K3 visa.

Does anyone know of any cases like this and how to answer that question, also are there any site where there are list of questions they ask at interview.

Please help im very very worried now.

Hello Everyone!!!

I've got some good news!! We have FINALLY been cleared out of AP after 4 months!!! We mailed her passport to the Embassy yesterday, July 29! :-)

Am very very excited!!! They however told us it will take from 2 to 4wks to receive the visa.

I am now going to schedule her flight for September on PIA direct.

Does anyone know the best way to schedule the flight on PIA from Lahore to JFK? Also, is it cheaper to book the flight here in the US or in Pakistan?

Thanks in advance for your help! Goodluck to everyone on AP and for those of you waiting for interviews!!!

Hey Bro,

Congrates on getting the visa, you must be hell happy about it huh? Well I would suggest for JFK to try Emirates they are running direct flights to LA, SF and Houston and may be to JFK. Remember when you get tickets of the airline which belongs to the homeland you are traveling from are expensive like PIA it will cost you more, secondly you cannot book tickets for purchase from US for your wife to fly from the Pakistan.

Thanks

I was thinking about her coming on Emirate or Etihad, but the problem with that is that she would have to switch planes. She is really really nervous about coming here and having to switch planes and that she might get it wrong. So that is why I want to have her take PIA here.

Are you sure you can't purchase a ticket here in the US for a person in Pakistan? I think that is possible becuase they are all E-Tickets. I could then have my Fiancee go to the PIA ticket office in pakistan and pick up her ticket. I dont see a problem with that.

Does anyone have any thoughts on this?

You can purchase it from a PIA agent, but also you can send her the money via western union and she can purchase a ticket from a local agen in Pakistan. Your best bet is to have her come by PIA since its the first time, its a direct flight and also every one speaks urdu and it will be easy for her to communicate and people will be able to help her if needed. Good Luck and congratulations
