USCIS Expedite approved...NVC Expedite denied???

[jacqueline6001 8]

Hello all,

I am seeking the advice of my fellow members. I am a little confused here. In late December 2013 I sent in a request for an expedite through USCIS. After two weeks, we had an approval and 2 days later our case was complete at the USCIS level and moved onto the NVC. Our case arrived to the NVC on February 10 th, but was not officially in their system until February 26th. At that point I had placed an expedite request with the NVC and they had written me back one time requesting 2 international phone numbers for my husband. One more week had passed and that is when I received the denial email from the NVC.

I do not understand the denial for the expedite request at the NVC stage, but yet USCIS gave an approval. My circumstances have not changed from the time I requested it at USCIS to the NVC stage. Though yesterday I did write a second request for an expedite even though the first one was denied because my circumstances have changed over the past 2 weeks since the denial. Not only does my mother have the kidney failure down to 3% total function, but now financially I must spend part of my money on her as well just to help her keep her alive medically since she has been cut off from all government programs for her dialysis and other medical conditions.

Any advice from anyone?

I've heard that a expedite with NVC is very difficult to get and sometimes may even slow your case down.

Have you tried calling them to see what grounds they denied you on then you can provide stronger evidence for that?

My advice is to learn the NVC shortcuts and get on with it. They are more behind now than I've seen them be in the 8 years I've been watching.

No, I have not called them regarding the grounds for a denial. That is a good idea. I will look into it. Currently through others what I have heard, the Egyptian embassy has a 6 month appointment waiting period. If my 2nd request for an expedite is denied, I will request a visitor's visa because even if its temporary, the medical side of things my husband can help with. Without a doubt, he'd be on a plane back home a few weeks later due to work and therefore.
