[Pamapaul 0]

Back in 2019 I applied k1 visa , I did everything, even paid for visa interviews on March 2020 , and Covid locked down , my lawyer didn’t pay attention much on my case , and I don’t know anything , I went to visit her on Feb 2021 , saw everything opened , come back in May 2021 , booked appointment Aug 2021 for her , and we got email few days before said  our case inactivity over a year , call us embassy in Cambodia they booked us new appointments on Sep 2021 , told her to reapplying or write a statement about what happen on inactivity over a year , did write a statement, waiting for 2 months , contact Congressman, and USCIS respond to reapply , and we did k1 Agian on Feb 18 2022 , didn’t get approval yet , and my fiancé speak to some other immigration lawyer, told about our case on have 30% chance to get approvel at interview us embassy, because our case on red flag , why we didn’t apply cr1, didn’t have any kid together, and I didn’t focus on my july 2019 applications. And now the lawyer suggests we to have child or she gets pregnant for better chance on the interview, ( US EMBASSY CAMBODIA ) any ideas to help us ? Thank you so much, and I just visited her in December 2022

not doing a CR1 unless u are already married is not a reason to deny

Agree that CR1 is stronger evidence of a relationship but a K1  is not just denied like that or USCIS would not have that visa in the system

 

red flag are 

big age difference

not enough quality time together 

income is not enough to sponsor the immigrant

person could become a public charge as u can not afford health care

and the issues Nolo law points out

Already answered you on the FB group and I hope more experienced members here will know for sure, but to me it’s a crazy idea to have a child just to have a higher chance to be approved at the K1 interview. Even if you do plan to have children in the future, don't rush it thinking it will help. This is a lifetime responsibility and there are many other implications around a pregnant fiancé, especially because she will depend on your income and your health insurance.

 

If the only red flag you have is the first K1 petition you left to expire (because of the lawyer/covid as you said), then always be truthful about it if they ask you about that. And as you told me, you have evidence you tried to save the first petition so present that too. Wishing you get your NOA2 soon!

That makes no sense. Run from that lawyer. A child makes no difference to immigration especially out of wedlock.  Just make sure your evidence of a relationship is there. You will be fine.

My advice is to fire that lawyer and to hire a more competent and trustworthy one.
