More visits and time spent together in person for a successful spousal visa with the beneficiary in Nigeria.  Also the beneficiary should carefully check any previous US visa applications to make sure there were no issues that could be perceived as misrepresentation such as stating married to try and get a B2 visa.

Recommend you spend some significant time reflecting on why he may have been denied.  Maybe the red flags may be overcome with more time spent together, for example?

Since you married shortly after the interview, there is really only one option now and even if the I129F had not been returned to USCIS, it, the K1, would have been denied.  I assume you got married in person and not through an online service (i.e. Utah Zoom weddings), so now you can focus on the I130 spousal visa process, and I would recommend you visit as much as you can while the I130 process is in motion.

 

Good Luck!

Awww thanks we got married in person met twice now n we just came from dubai...we will b traveling again soon....thanks

Wow, I guess Lagos really is a difficult Embassy! Sorry for those who go all this way just to be denied. It's awful and unfair, I'm sure. 

 

However, people are constantly being approved and have only meet once, many have crazy age gaps of 20+ years, others are only asked 3 questions at their interviews, some don't even have their paperwork examined, I've even heard someone say that the consular asked them "what kind of meat do you have in your refrigerator? "... WHAT DA!!! 😂 

 

All I can testify is that EVERY situation is case by case! I was stressed to the point of feeling sick that we were going to get an RFE because so many others did when we also were guilty of the same things that caused them to get an RFE but guess what? We never got an RFE

 

One size does NOT fit all! At the end of the day, it depends on the person we come in contact with and their good or bad attitude and the good graces of God. 

 

Best wishes to all. Looking forward to completing this dreadfully, long process and being with my honey pie chocolate drop ❤️❤️❤️❤️

You need to seriously sit down and have a talk with your fiance. There's something he isn't telling you and unless you sort that out, your CR-1 will be another bullet lost. 

 

We see another of cases here from Lagos where beneficiary thinks he'll outsmart Emabsay, blindsides USC and continues to blindside even after denial at embassy. 

 

So best bet, dig into this, lest you waste another time and money. 

No one wants to hear this but sincerely, Timona, you are right. People come here with questions and concerns but if you don't give them the answer they like, they will pretend that everything is suddenly OK and that they have it already figured out. Something seems very strange but hey who am I. I'm just a nobody!

I have heard that It has been stated by immigration officials that there are 3 levels of difficult consulates:

 

Low difficulty

High difficulty

Lagos.
