Have you done the DNA already? I am referring to the one through the embassy?

 

My experience is from my dad. After he had done his DNA testing here in the US and the embassy had received it, they notified him and us to come and pick up the DNA testing packet to go for the DNA testing. We did it at Roman Ridge in Accra. it took about 4 to 6 months to hear anything from the embassy. They called us back for an interview and asked 2 or 3 questions and we were approved.

Yes IcezMan_IcezLady i went for my DNA swab on 18th May 2017 and on the 29th May 2017 the DNA result was delivered to the embassy being a match, 9.9999997% simply means am the biological father. My first interview was far back October 2014 but the embassy sent our case back to USCIS for review and it was reaffirmed again in July 2016. I feel am the only one the embassy is treating unfairly because when you follow our case there is nothing unusual about it.

Actually your case has some unusual circumstance per the review on your profile but that's not the issue now.

Just be patient and keep emailing the embassy.. If i were you, since you said that your case was returned because the embassy lied that you didn't show up for the DNA in 2014. 

Create and email template and resend everyday until you here from them.
