Fiancée K-1 Visa Petition Approved for Petitioner from Maryland and Ghanaian Beneficiary

CASE: I-129F Fiancée Petition and Fiancée Visa

PETITIONER: US Citizen in Maryland

BENEFICIARY: Ghanaian

PETITION FILED: January 2, 2014

PETITION APPROVED: January 8, 2015

Our client, a US Citizen Petitioner, met his Ghanaian fiancée in March 2011. They started their relationship, and he went to Ghana frequently to see her. They actually did the fiancé immigration process before themselves, but unfortunately it was denied. Hence he retained our firm to file a fiancée petition for her.

After retention, we informed our client the necessary supporting documents to demonstrate the bona fide nature of their relationship. Our client retained our office on December 18, 2013. We helped him and his fiancée draft letters in support of the fiancé petition, and we filed the petition on January 2, 2014.

However, on August 20, 2014, the USCIS issued a request for evidence (RFE) and claimed that our client did not submit sufficient evidence to establish that he is in a valid and authentic relationship with his fiancée. In response to the RFE, our office filed a response to RFE to the USCIS with more bona fide evidence to show the bona fide nature of their relationship. We filed the RFE response on September 17, 2014.

Eventually, on January 8, 2015, the I-129F fiancée petition was approved by the USCIS Vermont Service Center.
