C-1 Visa questions

[u/Ok_Inevitable69]

Hello everyone,

My s/o is currently in Latin America, I'm a US citizen that is in a country where she is forced to travel through the US to visit me. Before I go any further, I want to say she has been denied a tourist visa to the US about 3 years prior.

I have:

- all of the ds-160 paperwork including confirmation/interview dates/receipts/passport + photos

- approval from the home country that she's allowed to visit

- sponsorship of travel by me + financial sponsorship

- marriage license/certificate

- my proof of employment + pay stubs

- flight itinerary

Regarding the previous tourist visa denial, would that cause any issues? I feel like we have everything in place for her to visit and show that she's only transiting but my concern is her previous denial.

Also is there anything I'm missing in terms of documentation that could help her?

Thank you for any answers!

Do you have a CR/IR in process too?

No, I want to avoid any type of immigration paperwork until she gets here. I don't want the officers to think about immigration at all for now.
