Hi, I'm new here but have been reading for awhile now. My husband and i are completely devastated and don't understand why.

To help you all understand alittle of what happened.............

We had our interview (hubby is the non USC), had all the required documents, lots of evidence (you name it, we had it), medical & police report-perfect. We were feeling somewhat confident, very nervous but confident. We have not seen eachother in well over a year so we were excited about finally getting a interview. Ok, so the interview went well, (at first) then the CO says that your wife doesn't make enough income, (we were given the 221g form) well we knew that so we had a joint sponsor, it was my niece. She's not wealthy and rich but she made alittle over $23,000 (no dependents). What my husband and i don't understand is, how do they come to the conclusion that she also doesn't make enough? Do they count the two of them on her affidavit of support? or am i and our children (3) counted together with my niece, and my hubby as well on that same affidavit? We are simply confused and heart broken. My husband and i discussed this and i was under the impression that the joint sponsor would be counted on there and the joint sponsors dependents (if any, in our case she had none) and the beneficiary (my husband). I don't know anymore, we don't know how this works i guess. We were given a date months from now to get another joint sponsor......I'm almost drowned in my own tears.

I kindly ask if anyone can shed some light for us to help us better understand, we both would appreciate it.

pls what does it mean when the CO gives u a temporal refusal forms to come again with the information he wants and my new dates is in the afternoon . what does it mean when u are given 212g white sheet with an interview dates and this time its being in the afternoon ? is ist likely i would be isssud if i give them what they need ?

thank u and count u and mostly those who knws much abt ghana

My understanding is that if they give you a form that you need to bring back information, and then you bring back information at that time (what they want in full), then everything should be fine. But, this is Sub- Saharan Africa, so who knows. I don't have any specific experance with the Ghana embassy (We went through Nigeria), but from reading, it is similar in the way it "bends" the rules. So, get together whatever they asked for and go back at the assigned time/date. I think they have it in the afternoon because they figure they are only looking at one thing, and not doing the whole interview. As for affidavids of support, I think they take the income of the sponsor and you and count everyone (you, husband, sponsor, and all dependents) as the number to decide if it is enough. I am not positive on this, but I believe it is that way. I hope everything goes smoothly for you when you go back.
