NTUk1: If your interview date is after Feb 21, I will advise that you postpone it, keep postponing it until you have exhausted all your options to or a better guidance is given or reported about the outcome. Otherwise you risk getting denied or put in administrative processing. |
Re: USA Fiancee (K1) Visa Thread by linearity: 3:27pm On Feb 01, 2020 |
NTUk1: This is true, specialized immigrant visas will still be approved just as the DHS circular stated, while the ban is still on, so they are not going to remove the link to the immigrant page. Also I believe there will still be additional guidance from DHS as lawsuits are going to mount in the US in the coming days. The first travel ban was allowed by the US Supreme Court because administrative provisions were given to treat each application on a case by case bases... Plus the EO stated one can still apply up until Feb. 21, but failed to state what will happen to applications in the pipeline. |
Re: USA Fiancee (K1) Visa Thread by NTUk1: 4:17pm On Feb 01, 2020 |
linearity:Well we have to understand this ban properly so we know the next steps to take. |
Re: USA Fiancee (K1) Visa Thread by paosca20: 4:18pm On Feb 01, 2020 |
linearity: Just like the initial ban, im sure the EO will be halted by a lower court(s) until it gets to the Supreme Court again. The good thing is that it might take several months before this ban actually takes effect! Let’s all be prayerful |
Re: USA Fiancee (K1) Visa Thread by NTUk1: 4:58pm On Feb 01, 2020 |
paosca20:But it’s not like it’s a new ban. Trump just added more countries to the list of a ban that was already in place. So can it really be halted. |
Re: USA Fiancee (K1) Visa Thread by linearity: 5:00pm On Feb 01, 2020 |
paosca20: hmm..... I wouldn’t be so such, though I see only one area, where lower will halt it, but it will take a radical Judge to issue a Nation wide halt. The difference between this and the first EO is that, then...there were no Supreme Court precedents for the lower courts to follow. Now the Supreme has spoken and said the President have the constitutional right to ban certain immigrants from entry the US, who they deem as Security threats, provided there are in place administrative process to make a case by case determination. Combine that, with last week decision from the US supreme on one other EO from Trump on immigrant public charge policy that was halted by a lower court in New York pending the final appeal process. The Supreme invalidate that Nation wide halt, except for the case of Illinois state and admonished the lower courts against issuing Nation wide bans. A radical district court judge can still disregard that admonishment and issue a Nation wide ban, because unlike the Supreme precedent, the administration did not provide an administrative process to examine each applicant on a case by case bases. This will be very very extreme and the chances of it happening is very slim, but never say never....but the administration can response back and extend the administrative process in the updated travel ban1 to this travel ban, thereby quashing the case. But like travel ban1, the administrative is a whitewash, it is a dumping group; after your interview, they will tell you that, your status is in ‘administrative processing’....what they really meant is, they have sent your file to Washington DC for determination aka dump. Very few people get issued visa after administrative oversight from Washington DC, some get it issue after their US relatives file either individual or class action lawsuits against the US government. If you are affected, talk to your US relative for them to be active in the US political scene, especially watching for any upcoming class action suits and to join those class suits. There are generally no fees to be a member of these class, only that your case must match the class action suits....the last Supreme Court rule on the Public Charge EO clearly state that benefits and reliefs sought ought to be limited to members of the class and not be National. So, this is very much not fully unexploited territory. 1 Like |

linearity: I agree with your assertion! At this point, I will advise those that have interviews post 21st to stay glued to appointment page! My date was 24th but yesterday I miraculously changed it to an earlier date in February. Immediately I saw the news of the ban, I went to the page and saw an earlier date! Man, I rush the thing like fried rice! Don’t give up guys! 1 Like |

Posted in What’s the future of K1 in the Visa ban affected countries I spoke to my attorney today who confirmed that yes this will impact K-1 visas that are pending. She expects that interviews will be conducted and afterwards the case will go into administrative processing, indefinitely, until the ban is lifted or further instructions are received from the US government. She said waivers are not likely for K-1 cases since it is much harder to prove extreme hardship compared to say a married couple or parent/child being separated. It doesn't seem like there is much that can be done except hope the ban is lifted or challenged in court, or vote Democrat in November... https://www.visajourney.com/forums/topic/730676-what%E2%80%99s-the-future-of-k1-in-the-visa-ban-affected-countries/ |

Treasureprince1: It is not certain category of immigrant visa, it is all categories of immigrant visa, spousal visa inclusive....except for specialized immigrant visa for those helpful to the US government...that means US military interpreters, US army or marine recruitment from Nigeria, US spies, etc... |

Now with this law we will see who is really in love with each other and are willing to build the family together with an American partner in Nigeria or any other not so wealthy country. It suppose if Nigerians are banned, now they will do a Fiance(e) or spouse Nigeria visa, if the relationship is genuine. Others will start talking about love to German UK, Canada, etc. ladies abandoning their American "love". 1 Like |
