Ya just gotta keep simelin or slice your throat.

I asked two simple questions.

1. How do I get a notation (accusation) of having had alcohol before the consulate meeting off my file?

2. Why is a 32 year old vehicular offense grounds for refusal?

Their reply is nothing more than their practising their typing skills, the only thing I have to take away from the letter is a visa number which I did not have previously, now where is the visa to go with it.

269 days to go until August 8, 2009 the end of the 18 months between heaven and heII.

Thier reply is the following:

Ms. Sharon ___________.

Sep 12 2008

Dear Ms. ___________.

On September 28, 2007, your fiancée contacted Mr. Emilio Gonzalez, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS)Former Director, concerning the denial of his visa, Case Number #MTL2006________. The Former Director's Office forwarded your fiancée letter to the Customer Assistance Office for a response. We have assigned it a case #_________.

A search of our system revealed that your fiancée's Form I-129F, Petition for Alien Fiancée Petition was approved on December 8, 2006. The approval notice was sent to the above address. Once a petition is approved by the USCIS and a notice of approval is sent to the petitioner, USCIS forwards the petition to the U.S. Department of State (DOS), National Visa Center (NVC) or Embassy. USCIS has no jurisdiction over the DOS , NVC regulatory guidelines.

The above case number is a DOS visa number and the issuance of visas for admission to the U.S. is a function of the American embassy/consulate officials serving abroad under the jurisdiction of DOS. They have the ability to grant, issue or deny visas and to determine the requirements for specific cases based on the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1952 (INA).

For further assistance, you may want to contact the U.S. Department of State's Visa Services' Public Inquiries Branch at (202) 663-1516.

If you need additional assistance or filing instructions, we invite you to contact the USCIS National Customer Service Center ant 1-800-375-5283 or visit our web site at www.uscis.gov.

We trust that this information is helpful.

Sincerely,

(Signed by)

We aren't waiting for them, Sharon's immigration to Canada is in the process, she could be here before any decission maker south of here wakes up. All my dated documents are out of date and I'm not getting them done again. I just want the opportunity to tell them to their face what they can do with their visa.

SAY WHAT? Oh man, these people are I should so go kick their collective rears.

Our love and prayers are always with you and the girl my dear dear friend

Wow, How many of our tax dollars were wasted for her to type up this letter??

OMG, I'm so sorry .

I'm sorry also, because it shows the inefficiency of the system and their lack of common decency towards those who keep them off the unemployment lines.

Well Lenina if people wonder why it so long the above should take away some of their doubts. They obviously have multi level of bureaucracy, someone writes the letters, someone checks the spelling, someone checks the formatting, someone checks for possible security violations, someone checks for possible harmful to the government and beneficial to the petitioner/beneficiary information. Of course there is the person that had to read the 3.8 pounds of paperwork I sent them so they could see how ridiculous the consulate decision was in the first place.

[Chica Yeyé 41]

Oh my dear friend. I have no words to say

Though you guys are a testament to love in adversity. Love you bunches and hope the bride can travel to Canada soon

Len, where you see sadness I see a new beginning, it won’t be where we wanted to be but will be with my sole reason for getting up each morning. As you know we are not quitters, and if we are not able to settle together here she will still be my bride in the next few month. Plan A was to move to Kansas, Plan B if A didn’t work was come to Canada, Plan C if both A and B don’t work is for Sharon to move to up State New York which is just a short drive from Ottawa. Right now it looks very good for Plan B and she should be here sometime after next March which would be perfect re: her pension.

Len next time hubby gives you a hug, take two and give two and tell him one was from us. Love you much and thank you for always being around.

<H1 style="MARGIN: 12pt 0in 3pt">Ron and Sharon</H1>P.S. To others in pain if your love is true you can get through what is dealt to you.

Don’t look at how far you have to go, look at how far you have come.

I am so sorry for all that you have been put through. I hope that you are able to have Sharon immigrate to Canada soon

Thank you Yaads, any time after March will be just fine for us. I hope and I'm sure that Sharon agrees that no one else has to learn our lesson first hand, mind you there are others that are worse off than we since we have not been denied just placed on hold.
