  1. It was obvious to all but the Committee and judges.
  2. You'll find out from the consulate. That NVC sent it to the consulate is perhaps promising.
  3. It is Wednesday -- time for our Semiofficial Semiweekly VAWA-Thread Joke: =========================================== OBSERVATIONS When people say, "You look so familiar," responding with "Were we in prison together?" almost always stops the conversation. I saw a cable repairman on the street today. He asked me what time it was. I told him that it was sometime between 8 a.m. and 1 p.m. Two can play at that game! My wife crashed the car again today. She told the police that the man she collided with was on his mobile phone and drinking a beer. The police said, "He can do what he likes in his own living room!"
  4. Hamas Agrees To Surrender If Europe Will Take Greta Thunberg Back GAZA — The tables were turned on the infamous terrorist organization today, with horrified Hamas agreeing to a full and unconditional surrender to Israel if Europe would agree to take Greta Thunberg back. The well-known left-wing activist was said to be en route to Gaza by sea to make her presence felt in peace negotiations between the two warring sides, leaving Hamas scrambling to do whatever was necessary to stave off her arrival. "Please, don't let this happen! We will do whatever it takes to keep her away," said Hamas spokesterrorist Abu Muhammed Zahir.

  10. This is very helpful to many. Thanks. Moving so thriftily isn't easy! Good job. All going to pay off! Give us details. Welcome to the U.S.!
  11. Doubtlessly led by supreme leader Hu Flung Pu. Thank you, tense EU-types.
  12. Image showing names at upper left has been removed. Please obscure the names and repost it.
  13. Maybe try this (a last resort). Call the consulate's phone for U.S. Citizen assistance, tell them you're a USC, and politely but firmly ask to be transferred to an American in the Immigrant Visa unit who is confirmed present to answer the line. When you get flak, which you will, respond to everything with, "Sir/ma'am, are you a U.S. citizen? No? Well, I am, and I ask (insist, demand) that you transfer me immediately after you confirm that an American in the IV unit is present to take my call." When you get more flak, ask the person's name. "What's your name? How do you spell that? Who is your supervisor? How do you spell his/her name?" This should get results. During my torment at the unspeakable Guayaquil consulate in 2008 (trying to get answers about visa status after a Stokes interview), I got jerked around trying normal channels and then did this. I was on hold for 40 minutes (at long-distance international rates) but ended up speaking with the IV Unit Chief himself. Within 48 hours, Mrs. T-B.-to-be's visa was approved. You should try the same in your circumstances. The crucial point is to play the "USC" card: "Are you a U.S. citizen? No? Well, I am, so you're required to transfer my call as I've stated..."

  15. Or, even something like this: Dear Consul: ____, my nephew, has a good travel history and objective ties to Jordan. He will honor the length of any granted B visa, because I will return to Jordan with him on [date]. Sincerely, [your name], U.S. Citizen [address, phone]
  16. Related threads have been merged. Ekto Oktan, please post further questions in this thread only.
  17. All visa cases are reviewed by the Immigrant Visa unit's chief before they're sent back to USCIS. If you e-mail the consulate's IV unit, put in the Subject line " To IV Unit Chief: A#____" (wife's A number). Concisely state the facts surrounding the misunderstanding, and say absolutely nothing about quotas, racism, hags, very young officers, blame, etc. "Innocent misinterpretation of responses" might be the reason to cite. However, before you do this, you must, with your wife's full concentration, re-create the interview questions and answers as utterly precisely as possible.
  18. Thread is moved from the K-1 Progress forum to the "AOS from K Visas" main forum -- OP is at that stage.
  19. Anyone who undergoes any such kind of ceremony is playing with hot fire. Give no one any room for doubt. Delay the ceremony.
  20. Prayers to your fiancee. Have her undergo surgery promptly, wherever she is.
  21. Country-specific thread is moved from the K-1 Case Progress subforum to the Philippines regional forum.
