Thank you. We have talked about other options about me moving to Egypt with him while we were going through this whole process. It saddens me because I have not seen my husband for a year because I have been working and I have a young daughter that is in school and I couldn't go back and forth or last year or else I would lose my job and jobs are very hard to find in the town I live in and losing my home and taking my daughter out of school was to much. I can't wait to get my ticket to go to Egypt and be with my husband There will not be anymore long distance phone calls, no more video chats, my husband and I will be face to face now . I miss him sooo much. This whole year of this visa process has been a NIGHTMARE for both of us. I am ready to leave the US behind and go to a whole new world in Egypt with my husband and be happy.

Believe me when I say that I completely 200% understand your situation. Our circumstances are definitely similar and almost exactly alike.

It's an emotional roller coaster to say the least. Not to mention if you have other needs that rely on keeping your job or having to keep insurance which provides for your medicine etc.. I totally understand.

 

Trust me when I say that moving to Egypt will solve a lot of problems for you and your husband. at least for the time being.

I've studied the entire option, pros and cons. It's less stressful, more beneficial for your daughter and completely cheaper than having to relocate in u.s.

All I can tell you here is cash out and invest in an residence (apartment, villa, building, etc.) that you can call home for your family (or make it your daughter's), that is if your husband doesn't already have one for all of you.

 

We're not the first to face these situations, and we certainly won't be the last.

Hang in there.

Hi Everyone!

 

It has been a while since I posted in VJ. 

I will tell you a little bit about our case:

My husband and I have been married for 3 years and a half. I submitted my I130 petition 1 month after we got married. It has been a nightmare but we are hanging to our hopes and dreams. 

My husband had his 1st interview 10/26/16 and he was put under AP. The consul was not very friendly and did not let my husband talk. After like 7 or 8 months, the case was sent back to USCIS, where it took a year and some months. We hired a Lawyer and we filed a Mandamus Law; Within a month, we got a reply form USCIS with a NOIR; We gathered all the proofs we could and sent a 5" binder to them. It took 30 days for them to answer, and they reaffirmed it. 

After reaffirmed, it was sent to NVC within a week, and to Cairo Embassy within a week. After that, it was updating often and within 2 weeks, my husband got a call for Medicals and police to be renewed. When we sent it, they called right away for an interview date. 

Second interview was last Monday 01/15/18, and interview was good. Officer was very nice and polite (a different officer); and at the end of the interview, he asked my husband for the Marriage Certificate, he gave it to him and Officer asked for the Original one (My husband believe that they stayed with the one with the pictures on it when he had the first interview, or he lost it), but he got another one from the ministry (without pictures), and translated it. Officer was kind of unsecured on whether to accept it or not. My husband gave him the certified translation, he took it, went back and came back with a sad face, and told my husband that he needed to investigate before he could issue a visa and handed him a 221g; officer stayed with all documents and passport and here we are again in the waiting game :wacko:.

Any advises? Do you guys think it will take long or is just a matter of weeks?

I sent an email to the embassy letting them know that I have one of the originals with pictures, and that I could send it to them, but they replied same generic answer about being on AP.:(

Thank you guys! 

Question, do you know if there're different types of 221g given in Cairo?

The first time they gave my husband one, it said 221g. The document they handed to him now, doesn't say 221g nowhere.

the paper i got when they told me " Admin Processing " didn't include 221g 

idk about other cases in egypt , but i read before that in other countries they are different 221g forms with different colors, and every color had a different meaning
