Help - it's been 3 weeks

[garbage_account 0]

cshell, yes, I am Guyanese, but I came over to the US when I was young and I've spent most of my life here. The embassy did take my fiance's passport... as far as the other documents go, they didn't seem to have a problem with them.. or at least nothing that I know of. They did also tell us one or two weeks so, like you, I'm actually expecting the process to most likely take months. I just hope they don't give us any problems and we get a (hopefully) speedy approval.

That's the good... now the bad: they didn't like that most of my fiance's family lives in the US. My fiance and I will live in NJ and her family lives in FL. My fiance has also been denied multiple visitor's visas to the US in the past. On top of that, she has also been approved multiple visitor's visas in the past and has been in the US three times (she never over-stayed her visits). The embassy did NOT like that her family is here and that she had previous rejections... that definitely set off a red flag for them even though our relationship is legitimate. I just hope they can see past the bad circumstances that surround the case and see that this is real.

So far I have not heard anything else about their investigations in my case.. I'll let you know if I do.

Again, all the best to you... I hope both our cases get quick approvals.

cshell, have you heard anything new yet? I just heard today that some folks from the embassy paid a visit to my fiancee's house. They spoke to her aunt and a few neighbors. I hope this waiting is almost over and she gets her visa soon.

Well we are in the same boat now! Yes, the same thing happened for my fiance late last week. A man and woman came out to his home and spoke with his sister and some of the neighbors as well. So I would think that we are nearing the end - but still no word - patience is the key. Well that is great that we are both moving forward!

I'm also in the same situation, my fiance however is from Cuba. They told him after the interview that he was in Administrative Process, however they didn't give him a 221g form. They did tell him it could be about 15days or so, however I know that it could be longer. We also went through this at the NVC however it went by so so fast less than a week. So what does DOS stand for and how can I get in contact with them? Thanks in advance

Cubalovestory, DOS is Dept of State - I think there # is 202-663-1225 and press 1,0,4,3,0

So the very exciting update is that my fiance went to the embassy last week on Mon and then they asked him to come back the next day. On Tues they fingerprinted all of his fingers. Then on Wed they called him on the phone and told him to come back in this Mon coming up. I'm quite sure for the visa - but nothing is nothing till it is in hand. So it has been 2 1/2 months and I think Mon will be the day. He felt better about the length of this process as on one of those days he met someone who was Guyanese as was their fiance who lives in the US and and the embassy is requesting that the Guyanese US citizen also come to the embassy. In another tread a person who was a Guyanese US citizen said that as soon as the fiance went into the embassy for the interview they were told to bring in the US fiance as well and the interview was set for 8 months later - yes I said 8 for the US citizen to go to the embassy and no interview was conducted - just straight to a 221g. Here in this thread garbage-account who is also Guyanese US citizen went with his fiance to the embassy to the interview and is in AP now. So I would say that based upon this thread and others if both the man and woman fiances are Guyanese that Georgetown, Guyana embassy wants both persons to attend the interview to rule out that the individuals are relatives. And everyone of recent going through Georgetown has gone on AP following the interview.

cubanlovestory, hope all goes well for you and your fiance.

cshell... glad to hear your good news. Hopefully your fiance will get the visa. I also have some news... last wee I wrote a long e-mail to the embassy. They responded the next business day saying that the review process was complete and that they would be sending a letter to my fiancee (keep in mind that they returned her passport to her on the day of the interview). Just two days ago, the letter came at it didn't say for sure whether the visa was approved, but it said that she should go to the embassy with her passport any Wednesday (obviously she'll be going this coming Wednesday). Not sure if they will be interviewing her again, but I hope not... especially since they interviewed both of us last time for about 2 1/2 hours!

We could all use some good news... keeping my fingers crossed.

Dear garbage_account,

Wow - well cool for the both of you - how interesting that your fiance was told to go in only on a wed. My fiance was told to go in tomorrow - Mon. Last week he had his fingerprinting done and they also gave him back his passport then. Now that I think about it - when ever they asked him to go to the embassy - for him it was always on a Mon.

I just posted a new thread about the actual issuance date of a visa incase you have any info.

thanks - and let me know on Wed the update!!!
