221g K1

[Newsha 10]

Hi Everyone

I got my green slip (221g) one month ago, some say I should contact my congressman, the officer who interviewd me said the Administrative Processing would take 60 to 90 days so do you think I should contact the congressman now? if yes who's this congressman and where can I find him?

I'm just so disappointed and I think I'll get the final and official rejection in 2 months but it wouldn't harm if I try and talk to someone

I appreciate your response in advance

they didn't ask for any more documents or proof, the consular officer said everything seems fine I'm female and have a very unique name, probably name check?!

it states that your visa has been denied under section 221g of the immigration and nationality act which states that No visa or other documentation shall be issued to an alien if (1) it appears to the consular officer, from statements in the application, or in the papers sumbmitted therewith, that such alien is ineligible to recieve a visa or such other documentation under section 212, or any other provision of law, (2) the application fails to comply with the provisions of this act, or the regulations issued hereunder, or (3) the consular officer knows or has reason to believe that such alien is ineligible to receive a visa or such other documentation under section 212, or any other provision of law. for US visa purposes, including ESTA this decision constitutes a denial of visa

You were DENIED.

You were DENIED.

yeah denied but it's not something unusual for someone who's based in Pakistan

I'm not Pakistani but I am from another T country living in Pakistan so security check is part of the procedure, not to mention my job is related to technology and requires another check as I've heard so

At this point the file will be sent back to USCIS, you will have to wait for the file to reach there. I believe you will then get a letter from USCIS also regarding the denial.

It doesn't read like you need additional security checks:

alien is ineligible to recieve a visa or such other documentation under section 212, or any other provision of law, (2) the application fails to comply with the provisions of this act, or the regulations issued hereunder, or (3) the consular officer knows or has reason to believe that such alien is ineligible to receive a visa or such other documentation under section 212, or any other provision of law. for US visa purposes, including ESTA this decision constitutes a denial of visa

yeah that's what I think

although it clearly says your case has been placed under AP and stuff but the reason of denial isn't specified

they have my passport and birth certificate I really want them back

They didn't return your passport? Now that is odd if they denied the visa, normally that is given back to you. Makes me curious.

As for the BC, any documents you give them they will keep.

I would call DOS and see what they can see in their system.
