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 .

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.

I'm really sorry to hear about that, that means there is something is causing them to put him in AP like that. AP now is routine even if you don't have to go to AP , I'm really sorry to hear about that , always be optimistic.

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.  

221g is AP document that will highlight or marked with that is missing or what need to be review before making any decision.
