My husband interviewed on aug 15 2023 in abu dhabi and he had a missing document (original marriage certificate),he had a copy only and at the end of interview the consular told him to fill out by email ds5535 and send and gave him a white paper 211g which i attached . That same day we got an email from embassy with link for ds5535 which we send on same day.But are they suppossed to reply to it or confirm they got it cuz they never did. Then i sent him the original birth certficate thru dhl and he sent through courier to embassy along with that whiteslip but courier service approved by embassy(empost) told him he had to send passport too which they never asked for but he kept insisting and told him he cant accept document without passport .so he sent them with passport .the next week on 25 case was updated but still read refused.yesterday 28th we received through empost from embassy our marriage certificate and white slip that we sent and passport with a new paper that i will attach too saying we are still under Ap and checked on passport
My question is when do they request passport ,after their done with ap or send it back now and if now why did they send it back not keep it.Also anyone with same situation and we let them know through email my husband had to travel back to iraq by 21 but can make different travel arrangements .
is that why they send it?
please inform me whats goin
