Hey, so basically i had an interview yesterday at ISL embassy, and had REFUSED visa over a very unexpected reason. counselor that interviewed me handed me over a refusal letter asking me to upload  Police certificate and joint sponsor's tax return IRC, W-2 . upload these things at at ceac.state.gov.

those things were uploaded at ceac already and got accepted that's how i managed to get an interview appointment? right? makes any sense?

i told her those things are already there i even have original of those documents with me. she just asked me to upload them on ceac and that's it and i may go now. 

they kept my passport and picture and medical sealed envelop. 

 

came home called NVC told them abt this. they replied it's completely view able on there system . they dont know what that counselor meant or wanted me to do? 

 

so, what happens after that? i'm very disappointed and confused at this moment. any suggestions would be highly appreciated. 

Just do as the consular officer has instructed to avoid further delays since they have are the only one that can adjudicate a visa approval. 

 

Best of luck..!

This is not nice at all. Why did she do that!! NVC should follow up with ISL embassy about this. After such a long wait, nobody deserves this. Praying that your problem gets sorted out very soon. I am so scared now.

thanks for your prayers, i think we all need those. because it is very unexpected journey. hope in the end it ends well for all of us.

we tried NVC too they replied they have that in there system how is that possible that Co couldn't see that. offcourse i had to share here with you guys because we have been together for so long helping each other through out this journey, i know it's scary but you all needed to know this. dont take it too easy prepare, over prepare for your interview. 

hopefully you'll get your interview date too soon as well. start preparing for the interview date already. you dont want to end up stressed last week / last day of the interview as i did. 

even though at the end they dont ask you anything but basic documents and a congratulation note (INSHA ALLAH). 

but still prepare for unseen.

at first it wasn't that bad. the hardest part was wait because you kept waiting for your number to be called. for hours. it was a busy day there too many immigration families. waiting for there turn.

she asked basic questions , most of them i dont remember because it was really fast interview, questions after questions were asked and answered at the same pace. i chose eng interview, they ask at the 2nd window where they collect basic documents, eng or urdu interview. you can decide there.  

there was an African american lady who interviewed me , straight face no emotions, she was standing in dark behind the window, it seems more like interrogation and less interview and was talking really fast ( not clear at all) but i managed to understand and answered everything without hesitation. then there was the question if I've been in any other country, i replied YES and how old i was i replied 20 .  she had a white page in front of her already while interviewing me.

she checked something in her computer and wrote on the refusal letter POLICE certificate then asked if my wife works (they already know she doesn't NVC has all the proofs including joint sponsors proofs) i replied no she never worked. she checked her computer for a while and wrote joint sponsor IRC, w-2 , transcripts etc. NVC has that all and accepted.

 

that's why to me it doesn't make any sense when she replied we dont have that in our system. i reached my document folder to show her that, she stopped me with hand sign. rudely told me to do what refusal letter says.

i asked so when will i get my passport back ( since she kept my passport and other stuff) she took that passport out of the envelop she had and waved towards me SAID do you want it now? 

i replied no no i didn't mean that , i'm just asking.

she said , do what letter says first.  you may go now.

 

It was an unexpectedly bad experience.

This is really rude... No body deserves this, least they can do is not being rude with people. Just upload those documents again as the CO said, nothing else can be done about it. IN SHA ALLAH you will get your visa soon.

btw for those who are going through ISL embassy, at shuttle service they ask whoever is going to US embassy to go to counter 9 or 7 i dont remember it is for executive service.  it costs 1000 Rs, you get to wait in an executive lounge for a minute or two which is air conditioned economy loung is not air conditioned . when you return from embassy they have a few cars that you can't catch unless you are willing to push other people aside, who are waiting for executive shuttle for a long time outside embassy as you are, because that's what they literally do push you and run towards car. you end up sitting in economy coach and many others who purchased that executive ticket. infect while going towards embassy we were asked to sit in that so called executive coach because there were too many people waiting for US embassy. 

my advice take economy, it's same you are going to end up taking economy one way or another even though you paid executive.

our lawyer asked me to obtain a new police certificate since my older one is dated one year ago no expiry date though since have lived there 10 years ago (well NVC took way too long to accept those document it's not my fault ) and asked my joint sponsor to get up to date tax returns . now it's waste of allot of money and time. but i'm trying to take care of that.  15000 PKR just for a request of uk police certificate . can you believe that? :S

This is too much money for a police certificate.... if all the money would have gone from there pockets they will never do this 😐
