Kiya,

Just keep going. No one will ever understand what we are going through unless they have experienced it themselves and then there are those who have no compassion. I will fight this injustice until I am no longer of this earth.

I know change is possible. The same thing was going on in South Africa and it finally was taken care of. As we all know, anything in the government areana takes lots of time. Kudos for those who continue to help others even when they dont need the help themselves. My husband will be here soon and we will continue this fight against injustice together.

I met my DH in 2003 and at that time joined many groups who were going through the immigration process in Casa. No one was denied. The denials started in 2005 it seems. So what changed? What caused this to happen? Who is responsible? This is what we need to find out. I know I have done so much research since we were denied and it is my opinion that the only sure way to get your DH/DF a visa is to be in Moroc during the time of his interview. Why wait to go until after he is denied? Why take the chance?

I know of an attorney in Alabama who may take up our cause. He fights immigration issues in federal courts. I was also hoping we could perhaps get Ellis involved. It will take money for all this but if we do it as a group, it is plausable.

Hang in there!!!

Are we talking CLASS ACTION???? count me in! lololol :thumbs:

We were denied March 25, 2005.

Petition received NVC in July 05.

Petition received at California Service Center in September 05.

Notice of Intent to Revoke received in October 05.

Reaffrimed November 05 and resent to NVC.

Case ready for 2nd interiew (?) January 06.

Still waiting...

Oh and we will be lucky to get an interview (if that is what we have to have) in April!!! Yet everyone else seems to be moving alone swiftly. Seems to me married couples should not be last in line.

Chiquita,

You had mentioned before that your K-3 is no longer valid, and that you are now working on the I-130. So I am curious....has the NVC sent you the DS-230 and the I-864? Those are the requirements when you are working on the approved I-130, but I see that the NVC has had your papers for 2 months. It took ours 4 months at the NVC before they forwarded it to the consulate. Also, did you know that for this visa it is the NVC that will schedule the interview not the consulate?

Although I am not 100% sure about this, but I would bet money that you will have to have another interview since you are now going for a different visa. I hope not for your case, but I wouldn't be surprised. Keep us informed, I extremely interested in your process since you are pretty much ahead of all of us on this.

It was suggested to me by a few people that the reason why i may be having to wait so long for a interview. Is that alot of people who were denied are getting their second interviews so that might be the hold up.

Kiya,

Just keep going. No one will ever understand what we are going through unless they have experienced it themselves and then there are those who have no compassion. I will fight this injustice until I am no longer of this earth.

I know change is possible. The same thing was going on in South Africa and it finally was taken care of. As we all know, anything in the government areana takes lots of time. Kudos for those who continue to help others even when they dont need the help themselves. My husband will be here soon and we will continue this fight against injustice together.

I was looking for this on the MAS web site...can you give a link to the article? I can't find it through searching. It would be extremely helpful to read.
