Lagos Consulate Round 3!!! Fight!!!

[Nwanyioma 11]

Hello VJ Members,

I know everyone has been anticipating my interview results. And guess what? We had the infamous Asian lady. According to my fiancee, he said that the interview went pretty good. He was called to her window.Before she proceded with the interview She said "Your fiancee the petitioner called the Senators office saying we had additional evidence. My fiancee gave her the call logs. She said "Wow" you guys talk everyday. He said Yes. Then she said lets talk. My fiancee then showed her pictures, she didnt say anything about those,then he showed the lease to the apartment that we are renting (I moved in January 9th.The original plan was for my fiancee to Arrive January 14 which is today).She asked him if I had family in Nigeria. He said Yes.Then she asked if my parents visit Nigeria often. He said Yes. Then she preceded and asked to see our emails. Now on the email, Me and my fiancee put alot of Your wife or your husband so he took a black marker and crossed them out. She asked "What is it that your omiting on these emails? He told the truth and said that we were addressing each other as husband and wife. She said then you two are married. He said no we are not. So they were going back and fourth, she even went as far as to show her supervisor the emails with the omissions. She stated that our relationship was really true I guess seeing all the calls (She compared my fiancee mobile number on the call log to the one the application). She continued and asked if we did a traditional introduction or engagement. He said No that Im busy that Im in nursing school. She was saying that American ladies dont address themselves as husband and wife if their not married.He then told her that my parents are igbo and I was born in the US, and we addressed each other in such a manner because we were madly in love.They then started to giggle and laugh with each other. I even sent my passport. She was like OH MY GOD. Can you believe that this petitoner sent her US Passport"? Thats what she was saying to other interviewers. Wow unbelieveable. He then told her that I sent my passport because we were desperate to be together. She kept pressing the issue on the omissions on the email. She asked when was the last time that I came to Nigeria? He said 1985. She then said you guys are truly a couple that why dont we file for k3 its much faster. My fiancee said no. That we are not married. She stated that she believes that we secretly got married in Nigeria. Then she started looking through my passport that I sent to see if I had actually visited Nigeria, and she was so dumb founded because she saw no visa stamps coming/leaving Nigeria. She had no evidence or proof that I came to Nigeria. She said ok. Well on a good day she can deny us because of omiting details on our email, saying thats fradulent. She said we have two options. We either go and file K3 or I scan all the pages of my enitre passport from when I last visited Nigeria. He told him that he schedule and can come back anytime that he wants with the additional documents. He asked is that all she needs and she said Yes. Documented on her computer and gave him letter requesting for additional documents. So when my fiancee called me at 9:30am my time, I immediately retrieved my old expired passport (For goodness sake it expired in 10/1990. I have nothing to hide, and enclosed is my visa stamps dated for 10/1985. I have nothing to hide. I FedEx it priority ($85.98) and I called Department of State to request transcipts of my passports issued to me on my name. The infamous Asian Lady kept our call logs and our emails. Im so tired of this run around. I strongly believe we would have been approved if not for those omissions on the emails.Not making any excuses but which right person that is in Love wouldnt do that? But what is there buisness? So my fiancee scheduled and interview for next week Thursaday January 21. Back to Lagos Consulate again. All this run around for the name of love. I dont mind because hes worth it. Hoping for the best.Im not discouraged.

Wow - incredible! Nwanyioma I'm so happy for you, you fought this with all your guns firing and you won, your persistance has won, with all you said I cannot imagine you being denied again. Crossing fingers, hoping much for you, glad you're not discouraged. I too went in and pressed after our denial - huge misunderstandings, along with the Senator, we requested a 2nd interview on the spot and without a blink it was refused, without looking at our evidence even. This is a HUGE blessing to get a redo. Can't wait to read about your thursday interview.

I am glad you got your visa the second interview. Positive attitude has a lot to do with it and that can be hard with all the self appointed Nigeria bashers that live to try to damage any Nigerian/American relationship that hits an immigration bump. It is always good when honest couple get through the bumps and there is more proof that Nigerians are good spouses in spite of woman that blame them for their own stupid mistakes. So when is he coming ?????

NigeriaorBust,

You are just too much!!! Now thats words of encouragement. Its unfortunate how one can blame/sterotype Nigerians because of their mishaps. Very childish and ignorant. Thanks for all the advices.

[christeen 966]

Congrats on fighting the good fight!! But I might point this out as a lesson to other K1 applicants about calling each other husband/wife before marriage AND about gathering evidence and providing proof and not giving up!!!

[WhidbeyGirl 1]
