Hello Fellow Visajourney members and visitors!
I have been posting mostly in the Colombian Club Posts regarding the K3 process. This past Monday my wife finally had her Interview at the Embassy in Bogotá and after a 6 hour wait they called her up for the interview and asked her the normal questions, like where we met, where we married, where we honeymooned, etc. Everything went smooth and then they told my wife her VISA was approved! They told her she could come back the next day at 4:00 P. M. and pick up her VISA. Please understand that my wife lives and works presently in Cali Colombia and has been in Bogotá for a week now organizing her Lab work, Medical, Migratory Letter, etc. for the interview. At the end of the interview with the Consular telling her that the VISA was approved, my wife alls the airlines and makes her flight arrangements back to Cali for 7:30 P. M. the evening of the day she is suppose to pickup her VISA and she call her boss and says she will be back to work the following day. Not to mention making arrangements to be picked up at the airport, packing her bags and checking out of the Hotel.
Well she goes to the Embassy at 4:00 P. M. and waits to have her name called, they never do, so they ask who's names have not been called. She tells them her name was not called and another American guy that was there trying to pickup his wifes K3 VISA says his wifes name was not called. The Embassy takes there names and tells them they will check. The Embassy Staff member comes back and says, sorry the computer system has not released your VISA's! Please come back tomorrow at 4:00 P. M. There was no other explanation! My Wife says the American was told the same thing the two previous days with no explanation. My wife was livid!
I plan to call the Embassy today to see if I can find anything out. I can not believe that our embassies treat people like this.
Has anyone had experience with or heard of problems like this? Any suggestions or ideas?
Thanks,
Tony

Hope it works out, but computer glitches do happen all over the world from time to time.

Sorry to hear that. This unfortunatly is one of those cases where you as the American spouse could have probably greased the wheels. I had several problems at the embassy that I was able to resolve. Had I not been there, my wife would have been clueless.
