Form DS-5535 'SUPPLEMENTAL QUESTIONS FOR VISA APPLICANTS'

[tiyyo 68]

I sent out a new privacy release form to my congressman to hopefully find out information on my husband's AP. It's been hell. The second interview was such a horrible thing. Most definitely a Stokes interview. The horrible part was how degrading the COs were about Pakistanis. I truly became angry over this. They both were so degrading to both me and my husband.

Hey everyone,

Its almost been 1.5 months in Ap. On Mar 4, I was given 221g for submission of wedding photos though I showed the whole album to CO at the interview but still he wasn’t convinced and kept my passport and medical.I mailed the pictures through AEG then after 6 days I got ds-5535 questionnaire in email which I sent back within 2 hours. Till now I have got 11 updates but since Apr 4 case stopped getting updated. Yesterday I sent an email inquiry then I got the case update but the same auto-reply that case is under administrative processing.

When I track my passport it says no status update available and on cgifederal blank document delivery information.

I really want to know what’s going on with my case. Had anyone gone through this or please guide what should I do??

This waiting game is so frustrating and terrible.

my husband has been waiting 13 months... how much longer? why is DS-5535 and 221g taking this long>????

[yousef5 4]

My wife is waiting for 17 months and still no answer I’m so mad fr this

[Roor.M 82]

16 months and still waiting. 

Had my interview in Khartoum, Sudan. On the 18th of Dec 2017.

 

Hired a lawyer and recently she said they might have lost my papers OR the people in the Sudanese embassy didn't even place the order for security clearances to begin with!

 

May God help us out of this hell on earth. Let's not forget though, we're healthy and safe still. May we get reunited with our loved ones soon.
