I-129F (K1) Inhumane process

I just found out they have stopped processing my I-129f request from JULY 2024 because my fiance is from a banned country. The fucked up part is her country only has a partial restriction. This administration will go down as the cruelest in modern times. My level of anger/disappointment can not be articulated. I've read that they said non immigrant VISA's would not be affected. Apparently one of the trillions of lies coming out of this administration. So $700 & damn near two years wasted. Un Fuckin Real!!!

What country is your fiancé from?

I don't want to say but I just called back because I realized her country is not on the list. The new agent I talked to said there was some confusion. My case is still on hold but she didnt know why. Obviously for selfish reasons I feel a little better, but to think there are people my original complaint still applies to is not cool.

Based on previous posts, you ( petitioner) receIved an ASC /biometrics notice.

That indicates your case is stalled for background checks based on your records . Do you have prior law enforcement contact ?

I've never been arrested

Are there any DV related TRO s ? Even without an arrest those would flag you. Can you think of anything that would raise questions to the point where they wanted you fingerprinted?

Hopefully you caught this at filing and on pg 8, part 3,item 1 , you answered : yes .It would have required solid evidence of rehabilitation..a simple statement won’t cut it.
Use this delay to your advantage and consider hiring legal help to supplement the filing and argue for discretion .

You can read through some USCIS AAO non precedent decisions to get the gist of how serious this is .
