Letter for state representative

[PhilC 5]

I was wondering if some one had a sample letter I could to write my state representative. We have been in AP for over sixty days and I hope my state representative can get some answers.

in the whole scheme of AP, 60 days is not long. Most elected officials will not inquire on your behalf until you have been in AP for at least 6 months or more. My husband was in AP. Even if you do get elected officials involved, they will not get any different answers than you get. The consulate does not them any insight as to the status of AP or when it will be over. The standard answer is " there is nothing we can do to expedite or bypass the AP process, as soon as it is complete you will be contacted" There are people here who have been in AP for 6 months, 1 year, 2 years and even longer. There elected officials have not been able to help them. Take a trip over to the AP and waivers forum, you will find a thread for people going through AP in Pakistan, many many of them for a year or longer. With only 60 days of AP I highly doubt your senators office will get involved. Good luck.

For AP, 60 days is not a long time. You need to have some patience here. And as Mimolicious said, there is nothing you can do but wait.

Perhaps you means state's representative? You would need to contact one of your state's FEDERAL representatives (2 Senators and/or your congressperson)

State legislative representatives have nothing to do with immigration.

Anyone can write a letter at any time, they will not disclose ANY information about an AP case to anyone, but you can ask them to ask.

APs are "secret". they have no desire to tell anyone anything about them, after all if your fiancee was some sort of terrorist, for example, would they want her to know she is being investigated? It is an ongoing investigation and they will not disclose information as a matter of national security. Even though hers may be a random check of an innocent person (probably) they treat all of them the same. You will not get any information. They will notify you when it is complete.

Extended delays usually mean they are waiting for something from a 3rd party and it is usually some foreign government agency. They have no control over when they will get the answer they need.

If his Senator is knowledgeable AND honest (a lot to ask, admittedly) they will simply say "Sorry, no can do"

they will not give out information to anyone, they do not have to and they know it.
