Petition for Interview Reform: Make your mark

[Favoured 0]

Greetings to all VJers,

Here is an opportunity to make our mark.

Please, do NOT be deterred by the need to register the website before you can sign. I am sure it is something we all would like to have.

Please, do your part to allow the leader to do theirs (or to refuse to).

"Reform the family based immigration processes at the embassy level to make the process open , equal and fair"

'There is a need to restructure the Visa application/Petition process for family members of US Citizens. There is currently a lack of openness and large disparities in the application of rules. Beneficiaries are treated without respect over the years. Many consulates would issues rejections for vague reason and are not accountable to document or disclose the reason they issued those decisions. Once a petition is approved by the USCIS, there needs to be an expectation of equality and respect towards the various US Citizens waiting for reunification with family. We feel that the embassy should treat our valued family members with respect, and that having paid fees for the filing of the petition, we as petitioners have a right to full disclosure of the interview findings when the visa is not issued'

Open for comments by all.

Since this is posted in the UK forum--do you think there is widespread rudeness to spouses at the embassy in London? Do you know anyone who was denied in London and not given a reason why? I don't.

Hi Nick-

I posted this as I logged in, I did not specify it for london alone. I guess it defaulted that way for the way my acct is set up. Would you or anyone else be able to post/move it to a better centralized location, please that would be appreciated.

In regards to whether the london office has been rude to family members, yes they have, and have denied about three families I know of, and none of whom has been given any sensible explanation as to why they decided thus. Two families, one of whose sponsor I was once deployed with, has gotten no response to why his wife and stepchild were scorned at their interview and why they were lied to many times only to end up getting a denial letter. The other family was told that the office was unable to issue their visas, and worsemore, that they are NOT eligible to file for an appeal or something on those lines. My case, on the other hand, has not been denied yet (knock on hard wood), but you can definitely get a picture of how they've treated me from the time of my interview, and still not willing to tell me whether they are reviewing my case administratively yet or not. They keep taking my $16 each time I call and then tell me they have nothing to report and that I should call back. You can find out more if you look @ my posted topics on vj.

a lot of the few people that have signed this petition were not disrespected in london alone, and that shows that this rudeness (as you call it) is something that sprinkles throughout this system.
