Was she given a 221g colored sheet after the interview?  If they have indeed returned it to NVC then they found an issue with the visa application.  She should be able to get her passport back as they cannot keep it.

She was given nothing.  The fraud department contacted me, as it was set to "refused" and then after going back and forth, and a 45 minute phone call, and sending everything they wanted, they changed it to "Ready" in February, and she had to have another medical exam and was instructed to send in her passport.  Then on Thursday it went from "Ready" to "Refused" then on Friday went to "Return to NVC" and we have heard nothing since then.

They gave her nothing when she left the interview.

Her interview was in July 2024, an in August it went to “Refused”.  I spent 45 minutes on the phone with the fraud department, and then sent in additional documents to show “proof of relationship” and in February it was changed to “Ready” Again.  Then I had to send her to get her medical done again because it was over 6 months, and then they requested her passport which they got the last week of June. 

Then on 6/20/2024 it went to “Refused” again, and then on 6/21/2024 it went to “Return to NVC” and we have received no explanation.

I work in Law Enforcement so I am trying to do this the right way, but it seems it would have been faster other ways as she has a family friend who is already in Colorado, and he left to enter back in January and was in Colorado by February.  This is so disheartening.
