I applied for visiting relatives during my application for immigration to the United States. Why didn't the consulate approve it?

If the amount is limited, the application will be approved in a short time; The second category is spouses who already hold American green cards, and such spouses have quota restrictions on immigration.

Applicants who have lived in China for more than half a year can choose to apply for an I- 130 immigrant visa at the nearest office of the US Citizenship and Immigration Bureau in Beijing or Guangzhou.

In addition, there is another requirement in the immigration conditions of American spouses that applicants need to pay attention to. If the beneficiary has been married to the American applicant for less than two years before immigrating to the United States, his immigrant visa will be in a "conditional state" (in the form of CR 1 visa). If the marriage lasts more than two years, their immigrant visa status will be classified as IR 1.

Judging from the requirements of American spouse immigration, applicants or American citizens with American green cards need to provide marriage certificates of both husband and wife when applying for immigration to the United States for their spouses. However, if one of the spouses remarries, the US Immigration Bureau also needs the applicant to provide valid proof of the current marriage of the husband and wife, which means that both the husband and wife who applied for it have gone through formal procedures and ended their previous marriage.

American citizens applying for spouse immigration:

1) The applicant has a photo ID card, and the valid ID documents include: American passport, driver's license, or ID card issued by the state government. The shopping card cannot be used as a valid certificate. Failure to provide valid identity documents with photos may lead to the failure of application;

2) the applicant's American citizenship certificate, such as American birth certificate and nationality certificate;

3) Beneficiary's passport (including current passport and expired passport) and I-94 card;

4) All court records of the arrested beneficiary. Everyone must bring records of the disposition of these courts, even if the judgment has been cancelled or rejected;

5) Previous marriage certificates and marriage termination certificates of the applicant and beneficiary (such as divorce judgment and death certificate, etc.);

6) Provide all the evidence that can prove that the spouse has a real marriage relationship, which should be updated to the date of the last interview.

These constantly updated evidences include but are not limited to the following contents: child's birth certificate, current bank statement, bank statement, lease contract, rent invoice, mortgage contract, health insurance policy, life insurance policy, property bill, tax return and photos.

Matters needing attention when American citizens apply for spouse immigration;

1. When American citizens apply for spouse immigration, their children cannot follow them and must apply separately.

2. American citizens and foreign spouses can't get married just for immigration. Once found, the application will be rejected. If found after obtaining a green card, the foreign spouse will be deported and banned from entering the United States forever.

3. If an American citizen obtained his/her original green card status through his/her previous marriage, and if he/she wants to apply for immigration for his/her current spouse less than five years ago, he/she needs to prove that his/her previous marriage was not for immigration, or that the marriage ended because of the death of his/her former spouse.
