Hi,

I am new to this site and I would like to know if everything has been done by my husband for petitioning me to get to the States but then I failed during the visa interview at the Embassy? I mean, is there any possibility for that? What kind of things that can make that error happen during visa interview? I am a principal applicant and my husband is the petitioner. The NVC sent the invoices/ AOS & IV Fee Bill to the wrong email address of our attorney, I mean they did a typo on the address so we wasted 3 weeks by waiting the invoices already. It's been 9 months since my husband applied for the I130. Please advise. Thanks.

There is always that possibility if the relationship isn't genuine... the embassy knows what to look for in fraudulant cases and background issues etc ...all you need to do is be honest and be truthful never ever lie to CO or on any forms and as long as your relationship is genuine you should be fine...

Thanks for your quick reply. I am just too nervous sometimes when I have to deal with the consular as my spoken English is not good. By the way, the documents required by the Embassy should be translated into English?? I mean do they need to be interpreted by the sworn translator appointed by the embassy or we can just translate them by our own attorney and legalize the docs?

Please advise :D

Thank you

In the required document list on the US Embassy in Jakarta website, it only says "English translations." It is not specific on how that should be done. I would suggest any translation that you have done be accompanied by the same attestation statement USCIS requires. That statement being that the translation is correct and that the person doing the translating is competent to do so.

We had everything translated for the Jakarta embassy. As I recall the birth certificate and marriage book were among the translated items in our filed papers. You should have already done that for filing anyway? Anyway we used a translator that was just around the corner from the Embassy and they were kind enough to give the papers a nice stamp. We have used them (3) times now, once for the K3, once for the AOS, and again to DCF file after 2 1/2 years working in Saudi. Never, ever, give or submit your original translations and if you did get them back. You never know if you need them.

As to the original question if the medical is good and the police certificate is good and the affidavit of support is good and the requested documents were submitted then the consular officer is tasded to adjudicate the case, not re-investigate the case.

Nita's interview at the Jakarta embassy consisted of them handing over her passport with visa wich comment "this should make your husband happy" and she was out the door.

 

i don't get it.
