Did you get good news Ally?

I have talked to several lawyers now in the US and it looks like we prob wont go down the mandamus suit for various reasons.

It looks like to might be leaning towards another attorney who will be chasing up our case on our behalf and using all his contacts to get this through!

7months in AP go to try something!

Aman...

It is not good thing but not a bad thing either.

Everytime, they will open your case, they will know that there is a congressional enquiry on your case.

I hope/pray that you will out of AP soon.

Deep makes a very good point about the congressional inquiry being on your file.

However you have to check with the visa office when you phone for your regular update if in fact there IS a congressional inquiry outstanding.

I contacted my wifes congressman and they said that they sent an email to LegalNet asking for a congressional inquiry and update. However when I called up the Visa Office they mentioned to me that there is no CI on the system.

I am now in the process of emailing back the senator to again request a CI so that the visa office has this on record. Its always good to double chec.

On the topic of congressional inquiry, does anyone know the procedure that this is done in?

By my understanding the Congressman has staff that deal with immigration issues and they put in a CI to the relevant department. Or they send a email to Legalnet requesting a CI.

Does this sound right?

Thanks

Deep; Does congressional inquiry affect the chances of getting (pending k1 under 221(G))visa in a positive way or it has no effect?
