After 3 years...Approved today!!!!!!!!!!

[janetusman 33]

My husband was called into the embassy for fingerprint and oath today. He was called to the window, asked to do the oath and gave his fingerprints. The woman told him "Congratulations, you are approved. You will have your visa is 7-10 days. After 3 years of waiting, our journey is coming to an end and our new life together will begin. There have been many ups and downs through this whole process and I thank everyone here on this forum for all of your support.

Here are the particulars of our case:

• Married 11/11/2011
• Filed 12/2011
• Approved at USCIS 10/2012
• Interview at embassy 1/2013
• We saw sporadic updates from 1/2013-1/2014
• There were several updates in 3/2014, result our case was requested back by USCIS
• In May 2014 a Homeland Security officer visited my home in the US and interviewed me (wife/petitioner)
• Returned to the embassy end of June
• Request in the first week of July for updated documents (DS260, marriage certificate, nikkah nama, birth certificates), passport and medical were not requested at this time
• About 5-6 updates until August 22nd
• Congressional inquiry Sept 8th, response - waiting to schedule oath and fingerprints
• Call from the embassy Sep 18th to schedule the appoiuntment, bring new medical and passport for the 29th

congratulations, i would like to know why your case was sent back to USCIS, and why the officer visited you at home? that's unusual thing

[janetusman 33]

I don't know why my case was sent back. USCIS kept saying they didn't request it back and the embassy said they did not send it back. I worked very closely with my congressman to keep a watch on the progress. When it got back to the states I was told to take in paperwork to the local USCIS office (they returned the entire contents of his file to him at his original interview). I took it in on a Friday, the next day the officer showed up unannounced at 9:30 am and interviewed me. He walked around my house, took pictures of my bedroom and closet. He said, they were looking for evidence of another man living with me. It was very unsettling.
