Visa wasn't denied.  You were given a 221g for additional documentation.   I know of two or three others that had to complete the DNA .. one was very completed .. longer story.  All are in the states now.

 

You would not believe how many people in the Philippines "adopt" a child at birth .. claiming it to be their child.  It is fairly common and easy to do.

I understand what you're saying Hank. It's the terminology. I appreciate your reply as it considerably eases my anxiety about the situation.

 

Here is quote from the document that was given to my fiance at her interview at the embassy... "Your visa application is currently refused under Section 221(g) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA). Please be advised that for U.S. visa purposes, including ESTA (see the ESTA website), this decision constitutes a denial of a visa." (see attached screen cap snippet from the document itself).

Yup, that is the 221g standard wording ... read through the whole section about the 221g and you will find that it will only constitute a denial IF you don't provide the requested documents, and provide the requested information  .. for the moment everything is in limbo.

 

People get the 221g when then don't have their CENOMAR, or NBI or their birth certificate  ... very normal.  And not a denial.   If it were a denial you would not be pursuing the DNA testing .. you would be folding your tent.
