IMBRA invoked AFTER interview????

[darstar 0]

My fiancee has her interview on Monday. My useless lawyer phones me today to mention IMBRA. Has anyone gone to their interview to have IMBRA invoked at that point or is it typically invoked BEFORE it reaches the foreign embassy???

Thanks for any info.

Has anyone had there interview scheduled by the foreign Embassy and then had that interview revoked due to IMBRA????

Yes, this happened to several after their petitions were received by VSC after Mar 6th and forwarded to the consulates. They were subsequently recalled even after many of them had been given interview dates. Only those that had actually completed the interview were spared from the recall.

Thanks for the reply. You mentioned in my other post that I was beyond the NOA1 cutoff. Can you point me to where this is discussed?

Also, my fiancee has her interview still scheduled for next Monday, wouldn't they just postpone it rather than make her attend first???

IMBRA went into effect Mar 6, 2006. If your petition was received before that date then it does not apply to you. Your fiancee won't be turned away or denied because of IMBRA.

Do you mean received by the California Service Center, NVC, or Embassy. I assume you mean the former. Thanks again.

Yes I mean received by the California Service Center in your case. Don't waste your time worrying about IMBRA ... concentrate on the Monday interview. You are NOT going to be effected by IMBRA.

I wish you well with the interview. Good Luck.

From your mouth to God's ears I pray my friend. Thank you.
