I think we are having the same issue that Lost in Space is. Why are they starting in on Honest people that love eachother? Is this lady having a bad day and taking it out on people interviewing for visa?

My parents and siblings also ask to return back at the embassy after the interview, and the next day they submitted adiitional documents and their visa is released after 5 business days

There is also acobnamia1224 whose fiancee was asked for a 2nd interview: http://www.visajourney.com/forums/index.ph...p;#entry2082495

Is this a new thing? I've just had interview May of this year and it seems month by month there is something new that keeps happening when dealing with USEM.

I do hope and pray that you, lostspace's and acobnamia's fiancees get out of AR soon or at least, I hope somebody from USEM could tell you what's going on.

Keep strong.

After the second interview, the consul told them to wait until you hear from us.

Did the consul kept your passport?

HELLO;

I THINK THAT WE WERE THE FIRST TO BE TOLD, WAIT UNTIL YOU HEAR FROM US ! THIS IS SO HARD TO UNDERSTAND. WE PAID DELBROS A MONTH OR SO BEFORE THE INTERVIEW. I CALLED USEM TWO WEEKS PRIOR TO THE INTERVIEW AND THEY SAID THAT THEY HAD RECD. NOTIFICATION FROM DELBROS THAT WE HAD PAID. THEY SAID THAT THEY WOULD START THE PROSCESS WITH THE NSO THAT DAY.

OUR INTERVIEW WAS AUGUST SIX. AFTER THE INTERVIEW MY WIFE WAS TOLD "WAIT UNTIL YOU HEAR FROM US"!!! NO EXPLANATION OR REASON WAS GIVEN! WE HAVE BEEN FOURTEEN MONTHS TRYING TO GET A VISA. AT LEAST THEY COULD GIVE A REASON FOR ANOTHER DELAY. THE WAITING WITHOUT KNOWING ANYTHING IS ALMOST UNBEARABLE. I WILL CALL USEM MONDAY MORNING, I EXPECT THEY WILL GIVE NO INFO AND TELL ME TO CALL BACK IN TWO WEEKS, AS THEY HAVE ALREADY DONE TO OTHERS WITH THE SAME SITUATION.

I WILL HAVE THE CONGRESSMANS OFFICE INQUIRE ABOUT THE CASE AGAIN ON MONDAY. WE ARE LUCKY THAT OUR CONGRESSMAN HAS BEEN WILLING TO HELP. AFTER WE PASSED "NORMAL" PROSCESSING TIME THEY DID A CONGRESSIONAL INQUIREY. ABOUT A WEEK BEFORE THE INTERVIEW THE CONGRESSMANSOFFICE NOTIFIED THE USEM THAT THERE HAD BEEN AN INQUIREY ON THE CASE.

IF I AM ABLE TO GET ANY INSIGHT INTO WHAT IS GOING ON,I WILL POST TO LET EVERYONE KNOW!~!!

GOOD LUCK AND GODSPEED

I called the USEM and all they have to read to me is the case notes before the first interview. Nothing updated in the case notes that the nice lady can read to me.

I am starting the process of making a congressional inquiry today. We will see what happens.

There is another one who is asked to undergo second interview but hers have at least a reason why:http://www.visajourney.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=144871

I also hope that going for second interview will not be the standard now... thinking of one interview was already nerve wracking how much more a second interview.. a panel interview at that.

Unfortunately, you are not the first to be told "wait till you hear from us".. there has been several cases already.. envy_me was only one among the many, some have even paid DV 2months in advance. I guess the verification system used by USEM which is DELBROS-USEM-DELBROS-NSO-USEM still needs a lot to be desired. Combined that with the fact that there are a lot of Philippine registry records (BC, Marriage cert., etc) that contains typographical errors and other sort of messed up entries and there are also late registered BC which sometimes post additional problem in the verification process.

I could understand the frustration, the waiting for visa part was the hardest part for me even though I only had to wait 13days.. what was even harder was my verification result were already with embassy that time, i did not get any white slip nor heard the "wait till you hear from us" words. So I was in complete limbo that time. When we called they would only say "it is still under review". I don't know what took them too long to review our case when another girl (who also have two kids and also on K1/K2) who had interview same day with me had their visa released printed that afternoon and was released for delivery the following day. For me, I was not even rushing to fly to the US, I just wanted to receive the visa so I won't have to worry if we were approved or not.

I hope you will get the visa soon... Same hope goes to everybody else waiting.
