Hello
After having my interview in Jerusalem in November I thought everything was smooth. We were told everything was fine. We were given a form 221g and told to send the required documents as well as my souses passport. We gathered all the documents and passport and sent it to them. It s been over 2 months and no word. I recently found out I can check the status of the visa. So I checked it and It has a refused status. Devastating news. I didn t know if it was refused because the documents haven t been updated yet or because something was wrong. So I decided to email the embassy to find out what was going on. After a couple days I received this response
Dear Sir,
Section 221(g) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) prohibits a consular officer from issuing a visa to an alien if the consular officer has reason to believe that the alien is ineligible. Based on indications that your petition contains inaccurate information, we are returning it to the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) for review and possible revocation. If USCIS determines that the information we are providing would provide a sufficient foundation for initiating revocation proceedings, it will send the petitioner a notice of intent to revoke that includes a statement of the facts and evidence, and you will have the opportunity to respond. Under INA 222(f), which addresses the confidentiality of visa records, we are unable to provide any further information.
We did not provide any inaccurate information. I m just wondering why they would make us send her passport in only for them to keep it with them for months and tell us it was refused? At the embassy the interviewer told her everything is fine and once we receive the documents we ll send your passport and visa back in the mail. Please someone help me!
