Visa Denied...HELP ME

[Karina & ALex 0]

I got married Aug.11.07, started to do his papers in September '07, got our appointment in SANTO DOMINGO Dec.29,08 He got his visa denied and they closed the case, the paper said it was a fraud marriage which they are so fukin wrong but they don't care, we just messed up on the interview. That was the hardest & saddest day of my life , i felt like it was unfair. I'm dominican born in the US & he's dominican...i don't understand why the didn't leave my case open so they can investigate, if they did investigate i would be with my husband right now.

The consulate in Santo Domingo are known to be the worst people.

And a yesterday i called the consul in Santo Domingo they said the case was sent back to the US, USCIS told me they have to review it and they choose to deny it or send it back to Santo Domingo & get another appointment, So i gotta wait like 120 days.

Can somebody tell me what happens or what can i do ??

Hi, I wish I could help, but I am new at this and I don't know much. I just wanted to show some support as a fellow Dominican. I know that the consulate in DR can be very difficult, and I am nervous myself about my own case because even if our relationships and marriages are true, they don't care they just decide whatever they want. I'm sorry to hear about what is happening to you, sorry I can't help. Good luck and if you speak Spanish, con Dios delante todo saldra bien, solo hay que tener fe.

I think USCIS is required to notify you of their intention to close your case, but allow you 30 days to provide new evidence that might reopen your petition. They will take their good old time in notifying you, however. I am surprised you haven't thought of moving to the Dominican Republic to be with your husband.

When a case is denied at the Embassy/Consulate, the time to act is then, and try not wait for the case to be sent back to USCIS.

Unfortunately, what you need is a qualified family-based immigration attorney. They will be able to help you either get your current case worked on or assist in a future one.

Hey Karina, you can check this link out from the USCIS website. It gives you information about appealing if your case has been denied. Maybe that will help you. Let me know if it was any good.

Hi Amica

am sorry for the problem now faceing cause we have same situation except our not closed. What visa you and your hubby apply for? Did they give you an automatic denial? If the VCS told you that they had to review it and would give you an answer in 120 days then your in for a rude awakining. Cause they told us the same old ####### of 120 days and we have gone 3 months past with no end in sight. Start working on your rebuttal and contact a good attorney, and Marc Ellis is said to be the best in rebuttals.

Good Luck

Santa

Just prepared questions about everything you do, they asked questions about the dumbest things, not to make you even more nervous, when i was there they denied almost all the couples and if you have a baby get a DNA, you gotta be prepared and if they do deny your visa DON'T leave the building like i did. You can ask to speak to the head consulate and talk to him to get the visa. That's what my cousin did & many people that i know but i found out after my interview.

When you are asked to go to room 11, they are going to investigate you and they already think your marriage is fraud, that's were i messed up, i got nervous. Dormir muy bien the night before, i was there from 5am-6pm

All the questions they can ask you: What happened to me i don't what to happen to anybody else

This is sad, but as I reflect on your situation, no doubt USCIS and the Consulate will be curious to know why it has taken you so long to follow up. What has your husband done to follow up? The time delay suggests the marriage may not be bona fide after all. You'll need a capable lawyer.

[brlukath 1]

I agree that the time is now to get a good lawyer. PM me if you are in NY and want the name of someone.
