Default Interview Questions for a K1 visa

I'm not sure of the format her, this is my first post. Can anyone tell me what types of questions to expect in our interview for a K1 visa. Thanks

Hi

if you go to this website Dominicans to the USA - Index they will give you a better idea because most members there are going or have gone through the process

Good luck

If you're in a real relationship with her, don't worry as most questions will deal with the regular things that happen to couples. If the relationship is faked and intended to defraud the US k1 visa program: Be afraid! Very afraid! Odds are they'll spot the bluff and the citizen will face stiff penalties for this, the person requesting entrance to the US will be barred from it unless a miracle happens later...

Well, Pichardo...actually the worst penalty they will receive is the DENIAL of their visa...other than that, they won't do much...there is a penalty for fraud, but I have yet to hear of anyone they applied this to...it's much easier to just DENY them the chance of EVER coming to live in the states...that's about it...

To the OP...as Anna said...visit Dominicans to the USA - Index and go to the left hand side of the screen to look for the DOWNLOADS...the question are posted there...although most are in Spanish...they are simple to understand...

SOMETIMES the CO's tend to get a little more 'intimate' with the questions...

We were asked when was the last time we had sex, and who got up first to take a shower after wards...

So, just be prepared and answer the questions with COMPLETE honesty...

You'll be just fine!!

I know of some cases that people were fined via the federal court for lying about their made up marriage for papers. The woman got fined some $2,000 US and the man was told to wait for pigs to fly to try again and apply for an immigrant visa...

The woman now can't even consider marrying and trying to have the DHS give her the time of day, let alone papers for the husband...

Are you talking about visas in DR? Or elsewhere in the world?

I really have NEVER heard of ANYONE in DR getting fined for lying...

We've even discussed this on DTTUSA...maybe if anyone did get fined, they didn't dare post about it...

The most we've heard is of people just getting flatly refused their visas...and THAT'S bad enough!!!

Not in the DR... K1 is a visa that allows a US citizen to have their fiancée come to the US and wait for their change of status there.
Also used by newly married couples with the same aim.

The one fined was the US citizen in Federal court; the Dominican citizen was never in the US to begin with as that was the whole idea behind the k1 interview...
Got it?

I think MQ is well aware of what a K1 visa is.

Yes it's a fiancee visa to the US but the sponsor and the immigrant have to get married within 90 days of the immigrant arriving in the US before they can change the status.

The interview for a K1 and K3 is done in Santo Domingo

K1 visa is not used by newly married couples if he/she is still in the DR that one is a K3 visa.



K1 visa for Dominicans that are engaged to US citizens
K3 visa for Dominicans married outside the US to a US citizen.


For this site we use Dominicans because, but it can be any nation applying to get a visa to the US.


And please, unless you have a link to a story of fraud or it's your own story don't post it here.

Thanks
