If someone has never been to the US before and is currently applying for a K1, how would this scenario look?
The person used to teach English online for an Asian company that was aware they were hiring non native English speakers, but asked them to tell the clients they're American. With the initial I-129F, the couple included a tinder conversation where the beneficiary says something along the lines of "I have to say I'm American for my English teaching job", even though they're not.
As far as I understand, false claim of citizenship is usually linked to the I-9 employment form. Since the beneficiary has never been to the US before and has no existing previous visas or petitions, would this still be grounds for inadmissibility? Once again, one single tinder message, nothing to do with employment in the US.
Thanks
