denied at casablanca

My husband worked for years - worker/owner with family businesses. Denied k1 approved cr1. No change in work status between denial and approval.

I think it could possibly be a factor if the co believes employment and better opportunities are the motivations for moving to US, rather than the motivation being the relationship.

So today I call the consulate, and she tells me that I have sent too many emails, and it takes a couple of days to respond to them. She then proceeded to tell me that they will only answer the last email they received from me. She said I sent many emails, 3 so far, and I have 2 emails from my senators. Then in the same breath, told me they will probably only respond to the senator's emails. So I said which is it. You told me 2 different things. I then said well last year, they responded to my emails, and she just said that once senators get involved, they only respond to them. That is BS because last year I had 2 senators and a congressman on our case, and I still got replies from the consulate. I am feeling pretty darned frustrated because from what she said, they will ignore the first 2 emails I sent. Really?!

Hang in there! I pm'd you so I won't repeat everything here. But, I will say that whatever the Moroccan staff said when they answered the phone was generally at least a little bit off, if totally inaccurate when I called or when they called us.

Sounds like she was just trying to intimidate you to get you to stop ending emails.

I agree.

Actually it is a wast of time to file for a FOIA. We did it when we got denied and their response is that they are not allowed to give reasons for denials.

So they won't even give you the notes from the interview of a denial? That sucks...

Probably because half the time there IS no reason, just a feeling they have.

Or the reason could be something they are techincally not supposed to use as a reason-- such as age difference, religion, or whatever. I imagine they just don't even write anything down for that.

Probably correct on that one too!

Just called DOS. Gave the case number, and the man stated our interview was monday and he asked what the outcome was. I said a denial. He asked why it was denied, I said she didn't get specific, but she did say she didn't believe our marriage was for love. I told him this was our second time through immigration. Then he put me on hold for about 2 minutes. When he came back, he said that in the system, it says they are still processing our case. He said its not good news, but not bad news. I asked him if it was normal to take this long, he said it could happen. So no real info from DOS yet...

[msheesha 548]

If they are still processing, doesn't that mean there is still time for you to convince them to change their minds, or at least give a second interview? Keep fighting!

Another thing hubby said that happened, was some woman was going around,, and she put a green piece of paper in his passport. After the CO denied him, she took that paper out. Hubby said it was for the visa or something, like the other woman thought he was getting approved that day or something. IDK the significance of this, but just an observation

Was it a small, green piece of paper, like a ticket? They give those out as your claim number for you to come back and pick up your passport with the visa in it a couple of days later after they finish the paperwork and put together your envelope. If it is smaller than a little ticket then it was something else.

I do not want to give false hope or anything so this is just a question...but does that mean it's the possibility of administrative review instead of a total denial? Did your husband receive a 221G or any other documentation?
