Rescission of INA 204(c) Charge + Removal of INA 212(a)(6)(C)(i) Bar in K-1 Visa Case = A True Success Story
Episode 19
Saturday, 10 January, 2026

USCIS approved the Form I-129F, K-1 fiancé petition of our U.S. citizen client, after issuing a Notice of Intent to Deny it under INA 204(c). In the NOID, USCIS claimed her foreign national fiancé entered a prior sham marriage to a Form I-485 green card applicant solely to gain permanent residence as a derivative beneficiary. After receiving our Response to the NOID, USCIS vacated the 204(c) charge and approved the petition. Still, the U.S. Consulate refused the K-1 visa under INA 212(a)(6)(C)(i) and instructed the applicant to file for an I-601 waiver. Ten days after receiving our Motion to Reconsider the Inadmissibility Finding, the U.S. Consulate rescinded the (6)(C) refusal and then granted the visa. It took 6 years for the applicant to receive his permanent residence from the time the Form I-129F petition was filed with USCIS. This long and complicated U.S. immigration journey is a true success story for the clients and Dyan Williams Law.
