Hubby had interview on Aug. 28th, given oath, congrats, etc...go pay DHL fee. Per DHL, on hold still at Kingston embassy. He received a blue sheet request in the mail that was sent on Sept. 6th but it doesn't way why?

Anyone else have this happen to them before and any ideas why this happened?

Thanks,

What does the blue sheet request say? Does he need to go back to the Embassy? Provide more documents? Does it give any codes or numbers?

That stinks!!

There was someone that went through the K1 visa and got the approval as well, paid the DHL fee etc. But then was halted due to needing a co-sponsor. So she needed to get all that toghether and then get the blue slip interview back in place. Maybe??

I submitted everything and don't need a cosponsor or anything else. There was nothing checked off on his letter except blue sheet appointment and nothing else.

I'd request the blue slip interview and go back (or him) and ask. That way you can get face-to-face with them. The blue slip interview dates are quick to get. At least ours was - a week later.

It would be helpful to know so he could bring what it is that they want. We thought we were done and I brought stuff home with me so we have it to do things here with once he arrives. UGH!!

Maybe ask it in the "Blue Slip" interview request email what is required for him to bring.

They never make it easy, do they? Just when you think you're finished, they throw something else at you. Now, I'm wondering if the same thing is going to happen to my fiance. UGH is right!!!

what are blue slips? problems? request for more documentation. so you have an interview and at the end they either say "yes you can have a visa" or here's a blue slip we r not done with you???? my step kids are waiting for their interview in october. just wondering how soon will know if they are approved after the interview. their interview is same date and time...so that means they wont interview them seperatley?

There are a few scenarios that I’m aware of. At the interview, they will tell you if you are approved or not. They may give you a “blue slip” at the interview saying they need more documentation. Once you have the documentation, you can schedule another interview. I’ve also heard people are approved at the interview and then get a letter in the mail with a “blue slip” requesting more information. Or they could possibly deny you and not request anymore documentation.

I’m not really sure how the interviews work with children, but they schedule a lot of people at the same time for the interview. Then you sit in the waiting area and wait most of the day for them to call your number.

They told hubby congrats, here's the slip for DHL, we went outside and paid it. Interview was 8/28 and they sent the blue sheet note on 9/6/12. Senator's office said this happens occasionally if something expires in the process and the only thing I could think of is the police record (if it's only good 6 months then maybe we need another one-since they took so long). There is nothing else checked off on the list and nothing else written in. He responded to their email address to obtain the appointment and not sure why they didn't just write it in the note that was sent...why wait even longer? He asked what else he needs to bring with him so it's not a wasted trip because it takes a while to get there and costs money to go. That email was sent Wednesday pm last week. Why does everything in this process take so long? Just don't understand.
