Legal Question in Immigration Law in Pennsylvania

I applied for my fiance to come to the United States from the Dominican Republic on a K1 Visa. We went to Visa interview at the embassy and on the DS-157 we answered to NO to if he had ever commited a crime. During our interview they found that my fiance was in jail about six years ago when they asked us, we were honest with them. They then accused me of being paid by his aunt to bring him to the United States, this is not true. Everything we have done, we have done together because we really do want to be together. In the end of the interview, the K1 Visa was denied and they said they denied it because it looked like we was doing everything only for him to enter into the United States and not because we want to be together. Can this be corrected? If so, how? Can I file an appeal?

Hello:

It would not be an appeal, but rather, a Motion to Reopen should be filed with the proper paperwork, evidence and declarations.
