Islamabad embassy reopened (F2A visa)

[Sunny_me 4]

Hello everyone. My husband had his interview in September 2019, he was given a 221g as he was missing one document, the document was mailed the next day, they embassy kept his passport. 6 months later they emailed him to get a new joint sponsor, i managed to arrange a new joint sponsor within a week, uploaded all documents on ceac. A week earlier i opened his ceac account and saw “re-opened” against his visa application. They had added 3-4 more new questions to the visa application, i filled them and submitted the application again. Does anyone know whats going on? How long do i have to wait more??

Which form was missing when they gave 221g? And why did they tell you to get new joint sponsor? Did they tell the reason?

Original birth certificate of our child was missing

they initially approved all the documents before interview was scheduled, and didnt even talk about joint sponsor at the time of interview. 6 months later they came up with “need new joint sponsor “ theory

no reason, just a sudden email from them to find new joint sponsor.

i looked for a stronger joint sponsor then, who made atleast double the amount i had for the joint sponsor before, hope they would approve this one, and not come with something else missing now

i assume he would have to take his medical again as its been more than a year

Did you submit the new joint sponsor? Now all you can do is wait. Try emailing or calling the embassy to inquire about your case. You might be able to expedite too since it has been so long.

I did already earlier in March, then the covid happened and the embassies closed. I do email them every month, last time they told me to follow up with them in 6 months, as no new visas would be issued until dec 31st, under the proclamation ☹️

I dont have more information about this... I think you need a good immigration lawyer... there are many on YouTube you should see their videos.
