K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresHoneymoon locations in the US
This might seem a daft question - but has anyone experienced any issues with flights post-marriage but pre-AOS? (I'm thinking for the honeymoon specifically). Will there be some scrutiny at security?
We were considering Florida for a honeymoon, but as we'll be living in NH it's one heck of a drive down wink.gif

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresQuasi K-1/F-1 question
As others have said - if it gets to where you want to get married, do so and then file for AOS.
There's no point in filing a K1 as she's already there, but even if you did she'd have to return to her home country anyway to do her part of the filing and her interview at the embassy. Big waste of money to be honest (visa fees, plane tickets...).
Unless she has to return as part of her F1 conditions, in which case you should be able to start filing before she goes home, then she can complete her part when she gets back to her country, attends interview then comes back to you smile.gif

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresPetition Denied-Appeal for Reconsideration

QUOTE
Incorrect ID Picture and they said we didnt submit the divorce decree of my fiance, which he did submit last september
together with the requested documents.


Ah that makes a bit more sense. Although I'm sure they would have needed the divorce decree a lot sooner in the process. Maybe your pictures weren't recent enough?

I agree with Penguin - definitely call to check they have at least received your resubmitted documents.
I wonder why it wasn't turned around earlier on as an RFE?

Wow, she wanted you to support her husband and newborn son - is the son yours or her husbands?! Didn't you just say you've been with her for three years?
Is it safe for me to assume she wasn't free to marry you? It's possible the visa would have been refused anyway, but I think in all you've had a lucky escape. I'd hope this is the exception rather than the norm.

I'm sure it's possible for this to happen in any country, though some are considered more "high risk" than others. Going back about 9 years, my (British) father got involved with a woman from China, who had a daughter. She had a very good job, her own apartment. They were involved in a relationship for around a year but never met in person. He proposed, she accepted and they started making plans for her to come over and bring her daughter. But - my father wasn't totally honest with her; he made out his job was a lot better than it was (and paid a lot better than it did), that myself and my sister were in university, that I was training as a teacher and my sister as a doctor (we weren't, I was at the local community college training as a hairdresser and my sister was still at school!) - the reason he gave her for not being able to afford a plane ticket to visit her was that he was paying for our education.
When she went for her first interview, the application was refused as the answers she gave (which were about him/what he'd told her about him) did not match the answers on his application for her. So they came to the conclusion that they did not have a bone fide relationship. It wasn't her fault - she was being totally honest and gave the correct information - but he didn't give the correct information to her. Poor woman probably has a mark on some file somewhere for trying to get a visa under false pretences.
I know it's my father I'm talking about, but just wanted to use it as an example to point out it's not necessarily the partner in the high-risk country who has created the relationship for less than romantic reasons. whistling.gif
