I just found out I could possibly be denied since my divorce decree had a recent date of my divorce. I am going insane. :crying:

My attorney did not mention this, but another one I just randomly asked for advice told me that there is a possibility. Please keep me in your prayers.

I'm sorry to hear that. Man this whole process is so stressful... but hopefully everything will work out for all of us!

Keep your head up, and try not to worry to much!

Well, I think I may have been fretting for nothing. I think I asked a wrong person for advice, and the requirement is that you are free to marry. I have fulfilled that. I think its a VERY slim chance I will get denied. I was just thinking the worst scenario. My attorney that is representing me does not seem to think that at all, and this other one was just random free advice. It was my fault that I asked someone else who is not familiar with my case at all. I am pretty sure I will get approved. Usually, if they deny you its way in the begining and would not have given me an RFE. Sometimes, you just can not help to think the worst situation.

I am not worried any more. Sorry guys :)

Denials are very rare this early in the stage. Just a note to all of you do not ask any other attorney for advice unless they are familiar with your case. Sometimes these people are not familar with laws in different countries, and usually base it on the worst scenario. I learned my lesson.

Thanks, but I think I was freaking out for nothing. I really hope you hear something from your rep next week, or CSC before that :). I definitely think I will get approved.

A few days ago I received "Intend to deny" letter and it says I need to request a waiver with a valid reason for it. :crying: :crying: :crying::help:

I am sorry to hear about that, but I think you should get an immigration attorney in your case. This way you can get that waiver approved. Normally, I would not advice anyone an immigration attorney after the bad advice I have been given by them. But, you have every reason to get one. You need to apply for the waiver and tell them your story. Just make sure you get an attorney that has worked with assisting clients with waivers and is a good one that others have recommended.

So, the legal expert got back to me later on today, and after reading the verbage on my decree he stated I would not get denied. I guess he was confused :).

That's good to hear.

Even those all high and mighty lawyers/legal people can make mistakes :lol:

I think I've read that as long as you have a photocopy, you're okay.

I mean, NO ONE can expect you to suddenly pop up that original if it's been lost in the flood.

Perhaps he can try and request a new copy without paying for it, in case it was lost due to a natural disaster?

Never hurts to try.

It's really terrible what just came through my place now. Thank you for your kind thoughts and keep those who are gravely impacted by the storm in your prayers. Thank you! (F)

By the way, I just received a call from the Department of State! Is this normal? Just to tell me that our paper actually arrived in Manila on Sept 21st and to wait for further notice from the embassy regarding interview schedule. I am shocked!

Life is beautiful!

Weird of them to call you.

Maybe it's because of the flood they're letting people know that the records are safe and sound.

Briane&Merne: Sorry to hear about the storm and I hope the weather clears up soon.

Mystic Heart: I think a copy would suffice. I would not worry about the original.

There has been no action on approvals since 9/22/09. What is going on????????????

Hm, maybe they just put it back into your file.

It's up to the officer if they want to work on it right away again or not.

Maybe he/she had other RFE's that were sent back to look at ahead of yours.

And I got P3 today.

I'll be sending it back either tomorrow or Wednesday.
