[puri 0]

Hi,

Fiance's interview was tomorrow at 9am. Just got call today that his interview has been cancelled by USCIS because they need to re-review the petition and if approved once again then they would reschedule the appointment. Anyone have this happen to them? Does the whole process start all over again? How long would it take? So upset right now cuz the interview was tomorrow!!! all the excitement down the drain. They said it was because of some immigration marriage law or something. I called USCIS and they dont have any status on my petition except that it has been approved (1st approval). Would the petition go back to USCIS and then resent to NVC and then back to london? Any input would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. =(

What????? Maybe you can give us more info......your timeline is not updated so not sure what is happening with you case. Was your interview scheduled at the embassy in London???? When did you receive packet 3 and drop of the DS230???? Were you and your fiance ever married before???? What marriage law are they talking about????

Oh, man..... I've never seen anything like this before!

I think you should call the consulate again and ask for more details about the reasons they had to do this and how long this "review" will take!

I'm really sorry for you and I hope you can solve this problem and have your visa ASAP!

Hugs!

I dont have the exact dates with me but my fiance sent his packet 3 the same day he received it because he had everything ready. I believe it came right after easter. Then they sent him packet 4 on May 4th but he received it late so he called the embassy to check the status and they told him his interview is on may 11th. Then today he got a call from the embassy telling him that they have been contacted by USCIS and his appointment has been canceled because they need to go over our petition again and approve it again. I dont know why?? i have never read any cases like this before and I dont want our case to be "lost in the system" and for us to wait forever for it to finally be approved. I dont know what to do and no one can provide more information. My fiance called the embassy and they said its right that it has been canceled and that he should contact USCIS if he has any questions. I called them and they said "things like this can occur" but they cant give me any information on this cuz they dont even have it in their system! What to do?? He had his medical done right after packet 3 was sent back so he was just waiting for his interview date. We are both so lost now. =(

So, I guess you'd have to contact your Congresman for him to check what's really going on! That's not a normal thing and, since you don't have anything diferent from the others to investigate, your process should be done like anyone else's is!

Please, friends... Does anyone has another suggestion?

No we have never been married before.

[rebeccajo 14]

Filed a marriage-based petition for anyone else before?

-Never been married before

-never applied before

-met as most people normally do

-we were childhood friends

we have had a normal case up until this. no criminal background. nothing bad to hurt our case.

Then JMHO something has been misplaced from your file.

what does that mean?

Maybe they found a discrepancy when she filed package 3

I can only guess that maybe your file was reviewed for Quality Assurance puposes and the original processor missed something. Maybe some critical information required to approve the K-1 was missing such as primary relationship evidence, birth certifcates, passport photos, intent to marry statements or something.....Or...something on the security clearance was overlooked and now finally cught during the QC audit process.

Sooooo sorry to hear but I would call USCIS again and demand more information from them as to WHY this sort of thing can happen. I would also call an immigration attorney and ask them for their advice.

That SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!

I am planning to fly out for my fiances appointment at the embassy so if they start doing this regularly......I will have a stroke....Can't imagine being in the country and having made the trip for nothing!!!!

This has to be illegal.......

i called USCIS...got transferred 3 times...talked to an immigration officer and he couldnt give me any more info than the other two. they said they dont have anything in their system but according to the embassy...USCIS is the one that made the call to cancel the appointment. all the guy could tell me is "things like this can occur wait a few weeks and then check" he said he doenst know how long it would take maybe 1 month maybe 6 he doesnt know. he said they would contact me should the status of it would change..and that was that. How can I find out more? anything i can do to speed this up or to find the source of the problem? any #'s or any people i can contact? I cant seem to get a direct answer as to why this happened. demanding doesnt help either cuz they dont have any info at all.
