Very unclear situation post interview DCF Bangkok

[yashanya 0]

My wife and I have just encountered a situation that I have not yet heard nor have I read on visa journey. We had our final interview on the 23rd of April. The interview and questions went fine, but this is where it becomes extremely nerve racking. My wife is a Russian national and we are married and living in Bangkok for the past year and a half. Our I-130 was approved in Bangkok and were given all our paperwork for our final interview at the emabassy in Bangkok. After the interview the officer stated to my wife that everything is fine with her paperwork and her proof of relationship. Everything is ok, but the fact that she is Russian and filing out of Thailand makes it an issue for him to issue the visa right away. He handed us a paper of refusal indicating other "Administrative Processing". He then assured me that we will get the visa though we will have to wait for a week so it is cleared through Washington. He said that they will be in contact with us in a week. If all the paperwork is perfect and there is no dobt that my wife and I have a legitimate longstanding relationship, can we possibly be denied? Doesn't that violate my civil rights as a US citizen? Doesn't the fact that homeland security approved our petition in Bangkok give us the right to file there? What if "Washington" says no? How is he going to contact us? Has anyone heard of such a thing happening before? After the interview I spoke with him and he assured me that everything will be ok, but my wife and I feel very insecure. This process is so expensive, time consuming, and unpleasant in itself. Hanging another week or more while they get a green light on a perfect application is very disheartening. He mentioned that it is simply because of her Russian nationality. I have read many accounts of DCF's without any such problems. I welcome any and all comments or advice to this topic. I will write the embassy tomorrow indicating the process and situation.
