Default security review on K-1

Hi everybody!

My fiance and I filed a petition for a K-1 in July 2003
with the NSC. As of now we are still waiting to hear anything. I
contacted the Senators' offices two weeks ago and did receive the news
that our case is under security review since December.

We are not
really too surprised about that since my U.S. fiance has a criminal
background. I, the foreign fiancee, have a clean record, no visa
overstays or anything like that. But my fiance is on supervised release
after a prison sentence. We assume that this is the reason for the
security review.

I have read Michelle's experience at the end of
November, but could not find any other threads about her case. So, can
anyone update me about how long it took for her and what is going on
with her case? I am interested to see how long such a security review
could take and what could have been the reason for it in her case.


Thanks for any thoughts.

From
what I remember of Michelle's Case, they were under investigation for
visa fraud. The only reason they found out was because Herb (the USC)
contacted his Congressional Rep. I don't know if they ever found out why
they were sent through this investigation, but they did pass after about
a month I think?? Back then, I believe her userid was Michelle&Herb -
may want to confirm my info above.

As far as I know, it had absolutely
nothing to do with a prison sentence as I don't think either of them had
priors.
