‘90 Day Fiancé’ Spoilers – Michael Ilesanmi Visa Was Initially Denied!

Back in 2020, when Michael applied for a K-1 visa to be with his wife, his application was denied. An expert revealed that visa approval requires an assessment of criminal records and the past history of both the husband and the wife. While it is unclear if Michael has any criminal record, it is a known fact that Angela does. The reality star has a DUI, which isn’t enough for the authorities to reject their application.

However, Angela Deem is a repeat offender, and her second DUI arrest was in 2018, followed by a conviction and probation lasting several years.

Moreover, Michael Ilesanmi is from Nigeria, which stands at the 13th position in terms of K-1 visa approvals. For every 7000 visas approved in the Philippines, only 725 K-1 visas are approved in Nigeria, which is a very low approval rate. Moreover, Angela Deem is from Georgia, which is a Southern state in the United States that has an ever lower K-1 acceptance rate as compared to regions such as Hawaii, Alaska, and D.C.

So, even with no criminal record, it can be difficult for Michael to be approved for a K-1 visa. And their age difference only adds to the perception that their relationship is a fraudulent one.

Rumors of Michael being in the United States with Angela surfaced after the former posted a confusing and strange video on Instagram that comprised a slideshow of several romantic pictures. Although the video does confirm that they are still together, it doesn’t necessarily confirm that Michael is in the United States.
