update on wifes return to USEM after k3 interview

[ninjarocket 1]

It seems that we have little choice. My wife should really return to the USEM because I had previously requested an expedite of the CR/I-130 paperwork to catch up with the k3 interview. It seems it could reflect badly on our case if we request an expedite and then change our minds.

If we do decide not to pursue the I-130, I have to send a written letter (fax) to the embassy and then it is up to the consulate officer if they would still permit the k3 visa. Normally, the arrival of the I-130 paperwork at the embassy cancels the k3 visa, although it's not clear to me as to whether this still applies after the interview has taken place. It actually arrived the same day. It's such a grey area that I feel we have no choice but for my wife to return to the USEM.

We were so happy to have had everything done with after the k3 interview on September 16 what with my wife having only received a pink slip. She could have had a visa by now if it wasn't for my prior intervention in requesting an expedite of the I-130 paperwork at NVC.

It's also a pity because we were still in Manila after the k3 interview when the USEM had tried to contact my wife. She couldn't answer any calls because she was in the CFO seminar at that time where cell phones have to be turned off and there was no way for her to know that the missed calls were from the USEM. Return calls to that number cannot be made for some reason. Now she has to fly back to Manila and I won't be with her this time.

According to Lorraine at the USEM, everything seems to be in order and normally she only needs to do the swearing in in front of a consular officer for the CR visa (part II of DS-230). I'm just afraid that something might trigger another interview, which would be unpleasant. My I-130 also contains the letter that was sent from my congressman during the delayed USCIS processing. Hope that doesn't reflect negatively on my case.
