I appeared at embassy today for K1-visa, but unfortunately I was refused based on the fact that I said that I paid dowry during my engagement to my fiancee parent.
Please can somebody help me out on the next step?

My husbands interview began at 7am but he got there about 5:30. My Father in law said there had to be atleast 100 people there but not sure of the reasons. My husband was called in around 8am to give his passport/physical and to correct a paper that I sent to NVC. At that point he sat and waited for the next 4hours. At 12:00 he was called by a young man who asked
HOW WE MET
WHY I HAD NOT BEEN BACK TO NIGERIA AGAIN
HOW OFTEN HE SPEAKS TO MY CHILDREN (OUR)
ASKED FOR TAX FORMS
ASKED FOR PHONE RECORDS
ASKED FOR MESSENGER/SKYPE RECORDS
ASKED TO SEE PICUTURES(PLEASE HAVE PICS WITH OTHER FAMILY MEMBERS/FRIENDS NOT JUST YOU TWO)
The man went to the back...came back and said Congradulations
He said it wasn't very stressful...just make sure you are calm and honest. Listen and take your time to understand and answer. Thanks VJ you helped us make it through!

We got to the Embassy at 6:45 for the 7:00 am the line was already long but she was akkowed in. The interview went well, she was asked the name of the company I work, how long I have been in gthe US. The CO actually said he wanted to be sure of our rlationships because of my previous maariages to Nigerians. He asked about our religion and mine, why we did not get married in Nigeria, her occupation, our engagement pictures, phone records. He lkso asked if I have paid the dowry and she said NO. He was satisfied with her answers, but because we just have a newborn baby of 13 days and we already filed the CRBA, he said although he has approved the visa, but will not be issued untill the outcome of the CBRA. So we have to wait for that hopefully for another 6 weeks. The CRBA was finnaly approved and my daughter was issued the passport and the CRBA, but was told to come back for interview on February 27, 2012. She asked if she needed to bring anything else beside the the 212(g) letter t... read complete review

Hubby arrived at the Lagos Embassy at 6:30 am (based on other VJers experiences), even though his interview was not scheduled until 10:00 am. He said they called him in at 12:00 p.m., and asked for the following documents: Death Cert (I was married once before, and they asked for the death cert of my late husband to make sure I was a widow), his Birth Cert, Marriage Cert, & my 2010 income tax. He was called into the interview (white female), and she asked him only the following questions:
Who was his petitioner?
Where his wife was born, and my parents name?
She asked about my siblings
Why he was going to the states?
Why has your wife only visited once?
The CO told him he was Approved. He was finished at 1:15 p.m., and texting me with the good news. Praise God!!
All in all he said it was a good experience, even with the long wait.

We arrived at the Consulate at 6:20 am and people were already lined up. They called for immigrant visas right at 7 & we got in line. They allowed me to stay with him until he went through the security checkpoint. At that time I went outside to wait in one of the rented chairs. *if you go to wait know there is no restroom facilites so be prepared to pee in the bush :D*. He took in 2- 3" binders as well as a photo album, bag of phone cards (BTW they no longer accept phone cards), and an accordian folder.
I had prepared a letter for the CO since I was not allowed to be present. I outlined our red flags and how we could prove they were not issues in our relationship. For example I said that although I am white & that goes against the cultural norm, his uncle has been married to a white lady for over 30 years and so the family was more open minded to our relationship. He gave this letter to the CO immedialty. The CO read the letter and we believe it helped us tremendously. Here are... read complete review
