Post interview requirements question

[ibulp 14]

Hello VJ Family, 

I'm reached to a desperate point and willing to hire an attorney if I don't get anywhere, here is my situation:

 

Wife did the interview on 07-26-21 at the US Embassy in Ankara, Turkey and was given 221G and was told the reason is we didn't upload police certificate, marriage certificate and birth certificate to ceac and as we know case is not documentarily qualified unless you have those files uploaded.

Long story short I logged in to CEAC and took screenshots of everything uploaded and sent those screenshot to the embassy, they responded to my email with the same none sense. 

Please see the screenshot below and as you see everything is uploaded and yet they are saying they are missing them, I'm afraid they reject the visa and tell us because they don't have the required documetns.

What should I do or respond with, should I hire an attorney ?

 

please advise and help

Re-uploading all the documents to CEAC would be cheaper than hiring an attorney.  Just re-upload.  It's allowed and it's free.  And it's what the consul officer wants you to do.

 

As for why they are claiming that you did not upload the documents, it seems to be a CEAC system glitch, even if they haven't admitted it yet.  A number of recent interviewees in the Philippines have reported being told the same thing your wife was.  They re-uploaded the files the same day and their visas were issued some days after.

I was afraid if I do that they will have to send my file to NVC again and then NVC have to accept them. I will go ahead delete current files and re-upload them hopefully it is a glitch and they will see them this time.

Update:

 

There is no option to delete the files and I had to upload them to the optional documents section , hope that will work.

Once you have an interview schedule, there is no going back to the NVC review line for DQ.  You've already secured your spot at the embassy.  Moreso with your case since interview has already been completed.

 

No need to delete the old files from CEAC.  It's good that you already re-uploaded the files.  I suggest you notify the embassy with a screenshot of the location of the new uploads, like you did in your previous communication with them.

Thank youd for your replies if anything they do relief us, while US Embassy refused to confirm if they can locate the files, they simply stated the consular officer will have to open CEAC I plan to write a letter with screenshots when we mail the passport On Tuesday.
