My interview was June 2,2010 it wasn't denied but was put on administrative processing. They started the process in September 2010. So its March, its been 6months.

They said they'll tell us when we have the second appointment & all my husband has to bring is his passport & that i don't have to go.

My interview was perfect, this time i was prepare i brought all my pixs & evidence etc. I was about to get my paper to pay for the delivery DomEx. But then the consul scan our papers & the old case showed up to haunt me :bonk: . She ask my husband if someone had petition him, we said yes it was me but i found it strange she ask cuz i would think my name is there. I'm so mad right now cuz when we call they sound surprised that it been 6months "it wierd that it been that long usually take no more then 60 days" i wish i had money to get a lawyer to sue them. They DONT CARE! Its not fair, i see other people time line & i been married longer & they get approved. i just don't get it. It's gonna be 4 years in august & my husband still isn't able to celebrated here with me. But im going to DR in June-Aug so lets see what will happen maybe he'll come back with me :yes:

I'm sorry to hear you are on AP... welcome to the club! I was put on AP too after my interview when they said i was approved. Been married for 3 yrs now and been together for almost 7 yrs, with 2 kids and living together now for more than a year here in Germany. All documents requested are being submitted, my husband is even in the military but that didn't help. We are on AP indifinitely for unknown reasons. So don't feel so bad, you are not alone. Our case was filed may 2009 ...it got sent to NVC April 2010 and completed january 2011, interview february 2011. It could take longer but eventually we will get there...So hang in there and good luck!

Why was your visa denied the first time? What happened there?

Has this second petition been under administrative review or administrative processing? You and your husband need to call the embassy, visa specialist, etc. Like yesterday! Why have you waited so long to try to get answers? What did the sheet that they gave you after the interview say?

August 23, 2010 - I-129 F package sent via USPS priority mail with delivery confirmation.

August 30, 2010 - Per Department of Homeland Security (DHS) e-mail, petition received and routed to California Service Center for processing. Check cashed. I-797C Notice of Action by mail (NOA 1) - Received date 08/25/2010. Notice date 08/27/2010.

After 150 days of imposed anxious patience...

January 24, 2011 - Per USCIS website, petition approved and notice mailed.

January 31, 2011 - Approval receipt notice (NOA 2) received by mail. Called NVC, given Santo Domingo case number, and informed that petition was sent same day to consulate.

Called Visa Specialist at the Department of State every day for a case update. Informed of interview date on February, 16 2011. Informed that packet was mailed to fiance on February, 15 2011.

February 21, 2011 - Fiance has not yet received packet. Called 1-877-804-5402 (Visa Information Center of the United States Embassy) to request a duplicate packet in person pick-up at the US consulate in Santo Domingo. Packet can be picked-up by fiance on 02/28.

March 1, 2011 - Medical exam completed at Consultorios de Visa in Santo Domingo.

March 9, 2011 at 6 AM - Interview, approved!

March 18, 2011 - POE together. JFK and O'Hare airports. Legal wedding: May 16, 2011.

Oh, okay you were put on AP. Unfortunately, it is an administrative limbo... Even the timelines of people who have been under AP are different. Have you tried to call the embassy? Contact your US representative?

1st time we answer some questions wrong & i didn't know that i had to bring a lot of evidence. But this time i was prepare. Administrative Processing is what the sheet said & that's it. He calls every month & call when they tell him too. i called everything that deals with immigration. All they say is wait.

I do not know if you have checked out the website Dominicans to the USA? It has been down for this last week, but hopefully it will be online again soon. There are experienced members in the website who could perhaps help you in your particular situation. I think I remember reading about some members who were put in AP so contact with these people would be essential as they would have consulate-specific information.

Were the questions that they asked you the first time around really difficult? I am just trying to get more of a sense of the types of questions they may ask since our interview is next week. Thank you and good wishes!

I been trying to get on there but i didn't noe it was down but hopefully its going to be up soon. LOL i thought my internet was mess up thanks for that info.

The 1st time the consul was a A**hole but the questions weren't so much about us. It was like who took a bath first & was there a TV in the room. But the second time was about A-Z. 1st consul ask me a time line about our relationship the the 2nd consul ask questions about us. But listen carefully to the question & bring as much pictures as humanly possible because both times i been there ppl that didn't have enough evidence failed. I took all my pictures a 300 pix album & 4GB cd of pictures & letters we wrote & msn messenger ims & my phone bill & receipts of almost everything we did. Here's a good site that can help you get an idea of the questions http://www.***removed***/greencard/***removed***/marriage-based-greencard-fraud-interview.html & try not to get nervous because that's y i f-ed up.
