The Final decision made by the consular officer reviewing your fiance or spouse visa case, on whether he believes your case is bona fide and thus merits approval, or he suspects it is not Bona fide and deserves to be denied. His is a subjective decision based on the appearances of your situation. Does the officer feel that in his or her opinion you APPEAR to be a bona fide couple?. Does he or she feel you appear to have followed a similar path that other couples in your partner’s country have traveled before?. Does your courtship APPEAR to follow normal and reasonable practices, timing, and so on? Sad but true, What is expected by the officer, may not match what YOU want to do.

Green Card /Adjustment of Status https://www.visacoach.com/green-card/ The hardest part for any couple who is embarking on applying for a fiance or spouse visa to understand, is that at the end of the day the decision made by the consular officer reviewing the case, by the interviewer who has the absolute power to approve or deny, is that he or she is making a SUBJECTIVE decision bases on the APPEARANCES of your situation. Does the officer FEEL that in his or her OPINION, you APPEAR to be a bona fide couple?. Does he or she feel you appear to have followed a similar path that other couples in your partner’s country have traveled before?. Does your courtship APPEAR to follow normal and reasonable practices, timing, and so on? Sad but true, What is expected by the officer, may not match what YOU want to do. Problem is, the officer has all the power, he is the boss. To be successful, to reliably get permission to come to the USA, you are best served to comply with HIS ideas, not only yours. I recently got a call. The first thing the caller said was "I want to get married in Dominica next month, Can I do that?". She them spoke about how beautiful the country was, how she would have a wedding on a beach, how nice the wedding photos would be, and so on and so on. I certainly am all in favor of getting married in a romantic, tropical, fun location. It’s all good. However, my job is to guide couples through immigration, by viewing the big picture, how best to get a couple their happy ever after in the USA. Not just to compliment wedding party arrangements. I started by asking "Where does your Dominica fiance want to marry?. The surprising answer was, "he is not from Dominica. He is from Morocco, We have never met. We have been corresponding on facebook for almost 3 months. He is significantly younger. I want to marry right away. We don't have any friends or family in Dominica I just think its a beautiful place to marry " Instead of asking me to warn her about the many red flags she had and advise how to reduce them, she only wanted my approval on the wedding venue. When any application for a romance type of visa (I view both fiancee and spouse visa in that single category), the consular officer, regardless of where he is posted worldwide, when reviewing the case, always asks himself "Does the timeline and progression of the romance and relationship sound reasonable in general, and specifically reasonable in light of local culture and common local practice? the majority of bona fide cases he and his fellow officers have experienced, basically match the following scenario. A couple has found each other. These days most first meet online at a dating or social website. The couple get to know each other, corresponding and sending messages back-and-forth, via text, video, voice Eventually they meet in-person They continue corresponding and maybe meet in-person more times Having developed affection for each other, marriage is proposed and accepted They announce their plans for marriage to family and friends Celebrations are held, such as engagement parties and/or wedding ceremonies FINALLY the couple applies for a Visa to allow them to live together in the USA
