i was reading a post--------

"The US Consulate in Ho Chi Minh has denied my wife case and advised that it's on its way back to USCIS. The case was denied due to the following reasons:

1. Pictures shows we've only been together for 2-3 days --- Not true, we gaves them a lot of pictures with different places for my 3 trips to vietnam.

2. Letters without postal envelopes. --- I admited this. We were not prepared and over confident but we do have all the envelopes ready to proof.

3. Her lack of knowledges of my personal information. She did not know my boss name and the project I'm working on. --- Well, my mom has been married to my dad for 40 years and have idea what project he is working on.

4. We provide different married proposal dates --- Not true, the CO misread my timeline letter. My timeline letter clearly provided the same date as when my wife was providing them on her interview.

5. Phone bills not tracable --- What else do they want? I wrote the web url and id/password of the phone company where i obtainted the bill on the first page.

I took 4 trips to Vietnam

Trip 1: 4/07 Met her

Trip 2: 9/07 Visited her

Trip 3: 4/08 Married her

Trip 4: 4/09 Visit her -- received denial letter at the Consulate when came for status

MY QUESTION IS:

What should I do?

1. Should I file another petition? Seem faster but doesn't make sense because it's the same petition.

2. Should I wait for the letter from USCIS and file an appeal? I heard it takes 2-3 years for them to decide? Too long!!

3. Should I quit my job and move back to Vietnam to live with her while waiting for the decision? I'm having a great 10 years career with 1 company making over 100K but I can't imagine seeing her only for 3-4 weeks a year for the next 3 years (assuming I'm choosing option 2)

"

this is sooo freaking me out, because i too dont have enough pictures with my hubby, it was only two days we took pictures then my camera ran out of memory that time i only came for a week to see him. next time i came for four months but that time, i just never bothered to take pictures, dunno why, we just didnt happen to go any place and he was working and that is why. we do have a baby together, dunno if that grounds is strong lol......im sooooo worried, i also have worries about RFE's but due to less picture denial...im really scared..... any advice guys.... cant even sleep waaaaa!!!

every consulate is different. HCM is a high marriage fraud country, so the C.O is very tough. other consulate the C.O might just ask a couple of questions and hand out the pink. it just depends on your consulate and your C.O. every case is different. goodluck :thumbs:

ok errrm now ill stop worrying, telling myself, every consulate is different....every consulate is different...lets pray for the best... :rolleyes:

If you read the success stories where CO just laugh and smile at the interviewee and hand out pink slips (Visa approval) like candies... then you may also wonder why is that?

Each Consulate is different, so is each C.O., that is because each case is unique!

But I wouldn't be relaxing just because you're not going through HCMC, C.O. may or may not look at your case as deep as he should. Just prepare for the worse and hope for the best.

Agreed with the rest, all cases and embassies are different. Have not heard this type of tough questioning from anyone coming from B-Desh. But have heard they evaluate male applicants more thoroughly than the other applicants. One big plus for you is you guys have a baby together, so there will be no denying you in the end. If they are suspicious at all, they will ask fo a DNA test, which mebe 1-2 months delay, but in the end your husband will get visa. But hopefully they will just give it to him after interview.
