I am sorry you had to go through that, the embassy in India did the same to my finance. Treated him with very little respect and at times were rude to him. We were denied our K1 visa too...but they did not keep his passport. I would take it as a good sign they kept your passport. I would provide them whatever they are asking of you, maybe they do just want to do some checking of things.

It doesn't always have to be bad and it can always become positive.

Stay strong.

Did the officer give you the 221G? Did he ask for more papers from you?

So was your fiance with your during interview? Because you mentioned about both of you being treated as criminals?

The thing about AP there is no way in finding out when it's going to end. It could be days to months.

Hopefully by not returning your passport they will eventually issue the visa to you.

As others have mentioned, keep checking the ceac website. I was under AP too and completely understand how you must feel!!

Good luck to you

I cant believe this. I thought they were doing this only in high fraud countries. In Greece!?? Vauwww

Yes, Greece! With their economy lots of people are dying to leave.

Dead says Administrative Processing. Next week hopefully we ll have an answer!! I feel like a zombie. We are looking for jobs right now with my fiance in Europe so we can see if we can move. Or If i can move to st marten cause thats his birth country.

Why move now ? Submit what they asked for and you will likely be approved.

I'm really devasteted. But i really wanted to share that with u guys so can let me know.

Today i had my interview at the embassy. The whole process wasn't so smooth as i thought. I found it really hard.

I really dont know whats the problem but they treated me like me and my fiance are some criminals or something.

Probably they dont like that im with a black guy either.

They ask me few things about me and my fiance like how did we met how long we ve been together i told them that i lived with him for 3 months and suddenly the lady was like are 3 months enough to take a decision and be with someone? Im with my fiance since January 8 2013 we lived together June 8-august 26 2013.

Then they started to ask me everything u can imagine about my brother that he lives in the us. My brother got in the usa and got married with his first love that knew since he got a kid.after 5 years things didnt work out and they divorced,

Probably they believe my relationship with my fiance is not real. That I'm planning to move there get married and divorced. Great!! Sound like a great plan, but not for me that i love my fiance and we ve been through 11 hard months waiting for the k1 so we can get marry.

Also my fiance s family lives in md as my brother, so what the problem? They were rude to me like oh what a couinsidence huh? They both live on the same state, like when i met dana i knew that my fiance s family lives there. Wooow!!! I dont know what to say,

They didnt like that my brother and my fiance met after few months after i was being with my fiance either. My fiance last year that he visited his family in md he went to find my brother and go out for lunch and get to know each other. Is that a crime? I got so happy that my fiance and my brother were together,

A week ago my fiance was at md again and he went for lunch with my brother. Is that a crime again? We are a family... Thats how we are. For theme thats suspicious, at the end they ll tell me that they are afraid that my fiance will have a relationship with my brother, Jesus.

At the end they asked me to email them with my brother s address and my fiance s brother address so they can see where they live exactly.

They kept my passport. But i never want to go back to this place again, even from outside, they supposed to treat us up with respect and every case as unique. They were all the opposite

don't feel bad i went through almost the same thing when i was coming to the united states in 2008. i guess so many marriages are not legitimate and they are payed for so the have to treat every case like they are the same. the fact that they kept your passport that means you are going to get through they just want to make sure don't be nervous cheer up.. and goodluck

Yes, Greece! With their economy lots of people are dying to leave.

. Oh got it now. So it helps that the beneficiary is working, right? I am working as an assistant financial controller of a billion dollar company in Turkey since I returned from US. Hopefully I will still be working when I attend the interview.

Your head, held up high, and a "stiff" upper lip.,.,comply with all they ask. IT is "their" game.,.,we just play by the rules.

You will probably be fine, but document everything, while fresh in your mind, and file a complaint when you get to the USA, no one should be treated like that!

[Laspoxaroumeni 68]

They gave me a paper that called refusal worksheet and says : section 221(g) prohibits the issuance of a visa to anyone whose application does not comply with the provisions of the immigration and nationality act or regulations issued pursuant thereto. Missing documents : - names and addresses of all of ur family members in the us and all of ur fiance s family in maryland.

My fiance sent the email with the addresses and the phone numbers. We ll be glad if they call them and ask them whatever they want.

So pls guys tell me. Now what s next. Could this take another 11 months for them to take a discision? What do we must do?

What happens in cases of deny? What will we do? Can we get marry and go through k3? I dont think they will let me go to the states never again!

It won't take 11 months. Sorry to hear you were issued a 221(g) did you list your brother in you DS160?

• Applicants MUST list all immediate family members living in the United States, regardless of their immigration status.

Of course I did!

I'm pretty sure they dont believe the relationship is true cause they are racists! They can believe how a white girl from greece is committed with someone who is black!!! I'm still shocked but im able to see the whole process again on my mind and understand more....

If it is such a thing i will even write to Obama! We live on 2014!

Since they gave me a 221g whats next? We sent them the email yesterday afternoon with the addresses as they asked. So now what? How long this will take?

[KayDeeCee 4,893]

There is no set time for being in administrative processing. It can be short or long. Them keeping your passport really is a good sign. If they feel it will be refused and sent back to the USCIS, or will take a long time in AP, then they won't keep the passport in case you needed to travel while waiting. Keeping the passport shows they are leaning towards an approval and will need the passport to place the visa inside it before returning it. Keeping the passport is not a for sure deal, but it is much more positive than if they had handed it back to you with the 221(g).
