Hi,

Your situation is very common. especially on this website. You will get more help on this site than any lawyer can provide. First of all, Call USCIS and find out the status of your case and see if your case has been sent back here (USA). If so, You will need to re-apply and it shouldn't be long this time since you have been approved before. Once you get an approval here make sure that you and your husband provide enough evidence for the embassy. And please make sure he knows enough about you, i mean your job, income, address e.t.c. And by the way did the embassy gave you a 122(g) stating why they refused your visa?? In a case like this, USCIS will usually re-approve your case provided you give them all the evidence you provided on the first approval. Please don't be depessed and get ready for a fight with the embassy. Involve your congressman if need be. Goodluck and God bless !!

I don't know it this will help but see if you can find your case number an open an account with USCIS.

Maybe once you enter your case number you will be able to give us more information and locate your case to see if it's back at USCIS.

When was his interview? What information did he have during the interview? What did they say you needed? Shame on you lawyer for not preparing you two. Thats why you paid them the money to prepare you not just fill out some paperwork. I'd ask for a partial refund myself at least.(I doubt they'd give it though)

Here is the USCIS website

https://egov.immigration.gov/cris/jsps/login.jsp

And the phone number

1 (800) 375-5283

Don't expect the operators to be really helpful they are mainly just talking heads but every once in a while you get a helpful one.

Several folks here in the past have gone through this and have been successful so don't give up hope.

I very much disagree with this response. You must not let the old petition go and just file again. You absolutely need to find a new attorney familiar with this type of denial and appeal. If you don't appeal this action, the case can be closed based on the perceived fraud. This would be devastating for you as the fraud determination incurs a lifetime ban. Immediately look for an experienced immigration attorney that has experience with this problem. This is not the time for do it yourself and time may be critical.

Here's my advise.First do not abandon the petition.It would send a red flag against the new petion.Secondly,contact Uscis with your case #.If your spouse has been given 221(g) file that with it too.Thirdly,contact your congressman.All these would take time no doubt but in the end its always worth it! Try having Uscis re-approve your petition.Alternatively,you may seek an attorney.Thats my 2 cents worth.Goodluck

Hi,

People has been talking very well about an attorney called Laurel Scott. You should try to have an email consultation with her, I am sure that she will give you the best advice. Her website is www.visacentral.net.

Good luck!
