So we just got approved from USCIS on our I-130 for spouse visa.

 

so here  is my question when it comes time to fill out the DS260 one of the questions they ask if you been denied a visa before . In 2018 when me and now hubby was just friends he try to get a travel visa to come to the us. He was decline.   He said he believe it was because he couldn’t prove strong ties to his country .

 

but what if we not 100% sure of the reason ? Do he needs to write something like as I recall I think it was cause I couldn’t prove during ties to my county  


do he needs to write why he couldn’t prove  strong  ties ?

 

do we also need to write what change tell 2018 to current  on that section ?

If it asks why he was denied, if he knows, he can write the reason. If he does not know, he can write “unknown”. If he remembers being told the reason but does not remember it, he can write “I do not recall”

No.  There is no requirement for strong ties to home country when applying for an immigrant visa.

He would have been told why he was refused. Not that it likely matters.

Yes.  @Mike E stated that above.

Obviously the answer is “yes.”   It doesn’t ask for the applicant to describe the reason for the denial, does it?
