This is just a thought, and maybe no one else will want to do this, but what are the chances that everyone here going through Casa that had their petitions sent back to the CIS without a resonable explanation would want to send a copy of their 221(g) in one letter to Maura Harty? This way she could see that many people have them sent back without a reasonable explanation as to why, thus sparking an investigation of Morocco.

Whats your thoughts ladies?

Ok... I am all for this if it will help... but I have a silly question... WHO exactly is Maura Harty?

Maura Harty is Assistant Secretary, Bureau of Consular Affairs

FYI....BCIS will NOT tell you WHY your petition was returned!!!

I know everyone keeps saying that we will find out the reason, but you won't! I have never found out why. BCIS just quoted law they have information saying it appears my husband is not eligable.

I just wanted everyone to know...you will never know the reason the CO gave for the denial.

Although my husband did not go through the ME we also recieved a 221g but were fortunate to settle it very easily. I have visited this forum occasionally to read of your cases and am amazed at your strength, courage, and support for one another. I am so sorry to all those being played with by the Casa consulate. It is an outrage and it can't be allowed to go on any longer.

You have my support to have this pinned. It is valuable information that can benefit anyone...no matter the consulate they are going through. Keep the faith and stay strong (F)

Also it might be beneficial to post this thread or a link to this thread in the site related discussion forum. There will be a greater chance of getting this thread recognized and recieving support from a greater majority of the board. Not very many people visit the regional forums so bringing it to light in the site discussion forum could really help your cause :star:

A pin in the Waivers forum would probably be very helpful. :thumbs:

Instead of spamming the board because no one was stalking your posts, reading your protests, have you sent a PM to Cap'n Ewok (the Administrator) and asked him to pin it? Seems you're making a Federal case about this.

I am confused. Did you ask, and were told your topic could not be pinned?

It would be a courtesy to the community if you would track down your many posts and ask for all but one of them to be removed; this topic does not need to be pinned to every forum.

It should be pinned, but I agree it should be put somewhere other than ME/NA because the information you obtain will apply to all countries. Waivers forum may not be the best place in the world, but I think it's the best option you have.

You are all in my thoughts. The Casa people (actually, one particular Casa person) are just plain mean and seem to be violating standard operating procedures, and nobody in charge seems to care.

I think a well thought-out letter to this Maura chick is a really good idea.

This topic is for supporting this issue, not condeming the effort. If you read the entire post you will see that I asked for a new forum and was asked to post in the Waiver section...which was a fruitless effort. Talk about courtesy...if my posts bother you then ignore them, it is not like I posted this more than once in the K1/K3/CR1/Site Topic, I do not consider that spamming the board. This effort is to rally people who actually care about this issue. No need to make an attempt of outcasting me for it.

Couldn't have said it better! Posting ONCE in various RELEVANT forums does not constitute spamming. Some people only visit certain forums and don't venture to others. She (and others) are just trying to make more of the board aware of the issue.
