Understanding the Risks

One of the most common mistakes couples make when attempting to manage their own immigration case is filing the wrong application. U.S. immigration law is a complex labyrinth, and even a small error can lead to months of delay, lost money, and mounting frustration. For example, if you file the wrong application, it may take months before you realize the mistake. By that time, your case might be rejected, forcing you to start over from the beginning.

Another major risk involves the submission of contradictory evidence. Immigration officers scrutinize every detail of your application, and even seemingly minor discrepancies in documents, such as mismatched dates on letters of support or contradictory text messages, can raise red flags. This can lead to a Notice of Intent to Revoke (NOIR), where the consular officer doubts the legitimacy of your relationship, sending your case back to the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) for further investigation. Once doubts have been raised, proving the authenticity of your relationship becomes an uphill battle.
