Chuck, what were the documents you wanted the CO to look online? I'm confused...

Did the CO explain why he thought the certificate from the County was misworded?

I was hoping that the CO would look online to see that we were not married per the website i provided him. It is a government website. it was just to back up the others papers i printed off for him. I did not want hime to think that what i was providing was fraudulaent.

The CO officer did state that with the Certified Letter/Statement we had sent via Fed Ex that it stated the marriage License was not used. He wanted it to say that we were not Married. He did not like the word "Unused" that is why it was important to review that emails to that office and also see the website we had for him. SO what are your thoughts.

Thanks for the reply let me clearifly a few things that seem to be foggy ! One thing is that we had the original documents Fed Ex to Juarez. The document was issued with the States rasied seal and was Notarized. The Letter stated that on this date a Marriage License was purchased and not used. The Marriage License had numbers on there that matched the Certified letters conformation. This is the document that the Consulate Officer requested and then denied stated that he wanted our state to say that we was not Married. That is why I brought additional copys of the emails and contacts as well as the US Governmet website so they can see that no Marriage has taking place between me and my Fiancee. The reason we brought the Unused Marriage License in the first place was we were under the direction of our attorney to show true intent of wanting to be married and to follow the laws to get married under the right visa ! He stated this is to show the consulate officer to that we were clear and free to be married and that an unused marriage would show that. I am new to this whole process and Now it is turning in to a Living Nightmare and not like a Wedding we had dreamed of !!!! I really do apperciate all the advice and insight it is what is keeping me grounded from going crazy through this whole process. However it continues to be my belief that we did do exactly what the consulate officer asked of us !!! I think denial is what he had in mind and there was no document we used to statisfiy him. I would love to be wrong and so the Journey continues !!! By the way as we believe our file is still in Juraez for review and as of this afternoon our Congressman has recieved a Fax from the Consulate General stating that he is reviewing our case. Also as stated before the Consulate officer did recieve the original certified document signed and notarized stating that we were not married. So we could only hope that this whole process can be over soon ! We welcome anyones thoughts on this together we are strong !

Thank you for clearing that up. If you did submit the right documents, then there is no reason for the denial!

That is great news that the petition is still at the Consulate and that it is being reviewed! Hopefully with your Congressman intervention and the papers you submitted that prove you are both legally free to marry, it will all be solved.

My only thought is, that your lawyer really screwed up by advising you to submit the license.

Keep us posted, I wish you guys the best!

Where is your worthless lawyer now?

Get him to fax to the consulate, on his letterhead, that is was under his advice that you submit the unused marriage license.

Have him grovel profusely to the consulate in that letter.

I believe consulate employees are DOS and not DHS employees.

Yes the BIG mistake was the unused marriage certificate. Too bad you didn't know about this website before your interview and then you could have followed the guidelines here.

So is all that is needed to a document proving the license has not been used? How tough is that to get?

He did get a document from his county. but the CO did not want to see it. So he is being a chopF$$K the CO is
