NYGirl,

Who is "they"? The Department of State after they receive the approved petition from the USCIS?

Yodrak

I was just wondering can they disapprove NOA2 and what would be the reason and what are the next steps then?

has anyone ever got it?

just curious on a snowy and cold friday morning in new york.

YES

Then that's a whole different question.

I thought you meant USCIS disapproving the petition.

DOS cannot disapprove an approved petition. They can, however, choose not to issue a visa and recommend to USCIS that they review their approval and reverse their decision.

So in any case they can be disapproved?

What exactly is your question? Is it possible that someone will not get a visa even after getting a petition approval? Yes.

No, my question was if it's possible not to get your NOA2 from the start. Once they look through your papers and something goes wrong that they decide they want to turn you down. Like what can go wrong?

Snowy cold day in NY?

It's 80 degrees and sunny here in California! That's the trade off between Vermont Service Center and California Service Center!

Oh wait, I'd rather have the snow. :(

TimsDaisy,

A turn down at the regional center would be very rare. I have never heard of it if the criteria was met. If something is missing they will issue an RFE to get it. If someone does not meet the qulifications such as they had never met, yes, then it can and will be turned down. Perhaps a form that was filled out so terribley and incompletely that they threw up their hands and said, start over. Theoretically you are entitled to bring in and marry a person you love.

12/14/2006 Applied for K-1 with request for Waver for Multiple filings within 2 years.

NYGirl,

No. But they can send it back to USCIS for reconsideration if they think they have evidence, that USCIS didn't have, indicating that the petition should not have been approved.
