some members of congress calling for so-called "fiance visas" - used by one of the suspects to enter the u-s. also today, concerns about how the couple met, and other potential plots. abc's marci gonzalez has the latest developments. "today- urgent questions about the suspects who carried out last week's terror attack in san bernardino- investigators trying to figure out - if syed farook and tashfeen malik's marriage - and on-line introduction- were orchestrated by a terror group....with the goal of setting up a sleeper cell here in the u-s. garrett if it is the situation that they were recruited to get together.. then it's logical there other people in the us in other location where this may have occurred the fbi - saying the suspects chatted on- line about jihad and martydrom- well before malik was allowed into the u-s last year on a so- called "fiance visa" representative matt salmon (az-republican) she was radicalized along long time ago officials also into claims - made by enrique marquez- that he and farook planned an attack in 2012 - but then got cold-feet. the 24-year-old acc

what about the policies, the veets sa policy, the fiance policy? was she a terrorist plant? was she radicalized before she even came into this country? she and sayyed didn't really know each other. they met on the internet. they weren't high school sweethearts in illinois. the there's a report she was connected to a radical islamic mosque and cleric in pakistan. so is it possible -- of course she came up clean. that's the whole point, that she was sent in here on purpose to potentially meet and marry an american citizen, get that visa, come here with a green card and potentially commit terrorism. >> i think we've got to be honest about our visa granting system, even despite improvements based on security concerns since 9/11. it's still a very flawed vehicle. i mean, out there where interviews take place at and embassiy ies around the world you have very, very junior foreign service officers doing the interviews. rightly or wrongly and i think wrongly consular affairs is not considered one of the fast tracks inside the state department. the young foreign service oovs don't li

and now there is new scrutiny of the fiance visa process, including what was described as a fake address in pakistan on her application. and whether malik even had an interview by the u.s. government, which is a requirement to get the k-1 visa. >> malik, was she actually given an interview in the k-1 process? do we know that? >> i don't know well enough to say at this point. i know the process requires it. we're still trying to fully understand exactly all of her contacts. >> so the bottom line today is that we had someone get through this, well what has been described as a stringent visa process, for a fiance, coupled with the fact that her ultimate husband was someone who was radicalized for at least two years, and still it was not enough to draw the attention from the fbi. and just as a side note, based on director comey's testimony, it's clear that he was radicalized far earlier than 2013 just by the way he phrased that answer, shepard >> catherine herridge, thanks so much. live in washington. >>> let's turn now to retired fbi special agent jeff lanza. he in his 20 years with the bur

>> in most cases the fiance -- the reason they're getting a fiance visa is they intend to marry and remain in the united states. so, they have 90 days to do that. we give them a one-entry visa. they are allowed to enter the united states and they have 90 days, after entry, to either marry or depart. most of them, having married, remain in the united states and therefore they get in touch with director rodriguez's colleagues in order to adjust status and, yes, they would provide proof that they have married. >> now, this is a question i have, and it was referred to by your colleague, that they are reviewing the interview process of american spouses because we don't interview the spouse, we just interview this application for the fiance, non-immigrant visa. my question to you, the president has directed the state department to review them. what is the review? when will this review be completed? and what is the objective of the review? can you outline that, please? >> yes. the objective of the review, which is an interagency effort, we're working very closely with different parts of the depar
