Hi Guys and Gals,

First time here but I am long time lurker. Actually my parenst went through this ordeal known as AP. Their interview was done in August 2011 so after almost 30 months in AP, they finally got their visas back in early March. Just to give you an idea, how simple their case was! Both worked and live at the same place for the last 35-40 years ( they are now 67 and 69 years old), no affiliation with any organization or anything like which requires additional scrutiny but USCIS and embassy esp. Islamabad works in mysterious ways!

anyway I am here to ask one basic question and this is very important and I can't seem to find discussion around it on the interweb.

I went to the Oath and fingerprinting at Embassy (since I was in Pakistan already) with my parents and I asked about the timeline of their travel to USA. I was told May 28th (on and before, I guess) for my mother. I guess it depends upon the medical exam date which will be expiring in six month (from Nov 28th). My father has till July to make travel arrangements. Now I have booked them on May 28th, 2014 ( together) and I am flying back to bring them along with me. We are scheduled to be back in USA (Boston as POE) on May 28th at 7 pm and then connecting onward flight to our final destination on the same day with 2 hour layover. Here are my questions:

1) is there any chance of them being not admissible (due to fact of the very last day of their Visa)?

2) Should we plan for more than 2 hour at our POE?

The reason I don't want to change anything at this point:

1) really hard to get time off from work.

2) All the tickets have already been booked, so trying to avoid paying $$$ in change fees.

If this all matters, my mother (who needs to travel on and before May 28th) will be on the wheel chair and I must be present to bring her here.

Hi Dear Vjs,

I had my interviewed on 6th March 2014, More than 30 questions the Co asked me, and by the Grace of almighty i done well, I was having all proofs,

1) But Unfortunately co asked me to show her a proof of 2010 record, as we were talking on Facebook and Facebook was not able to save mesges at that time so i didnt print it out for interview, But Still i have emails of 2010 which my Fiance sent to me, and also three four facebook mesges of 2010. and i have more than 1000 pages of 2011 proofs, more than 1000 of 2012 and also 2013 and 2014, emails and facebooks mesges,

2) The Co said that My petitioner Income is not Sufficient to sponsor me, A Joint Sponsor is needed, While my Fiance Sent an email to US Embassy that her income is more than % 125 of guide line, and the Embassy Replied,

We have review the case record carefully. It is indicated that only the proof of ongoing relationship since 2010 to 2014 between applicant and petitioner, that is you, has been asked for. The joint sponsor is no where there mentioned as a requirement. Please review your paper work again and let us know.

Now My question is.... 1) 5 to 7 emails of 2010, as we meet in Nov 2010, and two to four facebook mesges, Is enough proof of 2010,???

2) Still I need Joint Sponsor Becoz, it was mentioned in the white page 221g INA ?

3) What about my medicals which will be expire in few days,?

4) what about the Civil documents which is almost expired..?

Looking Forward to hear from you guys.. Thanks

Most of the cases which are revoked sent to USCIS for further review NVC will only transfer your file

to USCIS. NVC never makes any decision or review. My K-1 was revoked as well it was sent back to NVC

& NVC transferred it to USCIS, it may likely take from 1-3 months to review your case, My k-1 petition was

reaffirmed and was sent back within 2 weeks, USCIS can ask you for more evidences if needed you will have 1 month

of time to respond them back.

i just know that i want to be out of AP! this is driving me nutsssssssssssssssss

They most likely sent it back for non bona-fide relationship. At the interview they gave my husband back all of the evidence saying that they had enough. So even if NVC reviews it, they will come to the same conclusion. NVC doesn't refute what the embassy is saying and they have it noted that USCIS requested my petition back, so it will just pass through NVC to USCIS. I will have to wait for NOIR and send back the RFE and wait for reaffirmation.

That is what they did to us also, saying not convince of a genuine relationship, more evidence needed and when we personally

submitted 12 additional pounds they complained it was too much and they "don't have time to read all that."

NVC does not review it, USCIS will review it and decide to revoke or send it again to the embassy with request to approve.

It can go back and forth if the embassy refuses to approve and the agencies play ping pong ball with our petitions.

Address your issues in the NOID/NOIR if you get one, sometimes they send it back to the embassy without a NOID/NOIR.

Best wishes for a speedy reaffirmation and approval.

1) I would not book that close.

2) 3-4 is better

I would rather change it than start all over. Too much of a chance to take.

What if the flight gets canceled for some reason. Things happen.

You can download all your Facebook data from inside your account settings.

Since it's November 2010 you met, the amount should be enough, check the downloadable FB data though.

I would send them a copy of their request for a joint sponsor on the 221g because they said to review your paper and to let them now.

You have to ask them about the medical and documents.

Here are directions for for the FB download:

They returned all the evidence to my husband at the interview so I doubt USCIS will send it back without NOIR and RFE. The CO told my husband he didn't need it that there was enough evidence already. They lie and play with our lives. It's absolutely heinous.

you are taking a big chance coming on the final day. If flights are delayed or cancelled or they miss the flight they will have to start over from the beginning. Not a chance I would ever take. If it were me I'd spend the money and move the flight earlier. Why risk it????????
