So after waiting anxiously for 10 weeks, we finally got our second interview schedule for Oct. 25 at 9:30. I am so nervous because I have to go to Jamaica to be by his side. Not much time to get this done but by the grace of God we will.

Feeling excited and emotional at the same time.

Best of luck to you both <3

ROC from CR-1 visa (Green Card expiration date was Nov 24th 2016)

 

Link to the evidence I submitted. Be sure to send evidence spanning your entire marriage (especially for K-1) or as far back as you can. Just one or two bank statements will not cut it. I primarily focused on the two years of living here since I came in on a CR-1. If you don't have the fundamentals (i.e. joint accounts/policies), you can explain why in the covering letter. E.g. "While we do not have joint utilities, we both contribute to them from our joint bank account".

April 2018 - August 7th 2018: Tons of service requests, emails and now senator involvement to get my corrected green card back because what the heck, USCIS. Also some time in May I sent a letter to Potomac telling them I want to withdraw my I-90 since CSC were handling it.

Our first interview they claim our marriage was not legitimate...So they sent back our case to USCIS. They sent us a NOIR, we responded and our petition was reaffirmed. So this is where we are. We have been doing this since 2011. Hope this is the end of this emotional journey for us.

Thank you

They claim not enough proof of an ongoing relationship. But we had the proof, it was just that we were doing the whole think by ourselves with no guidance, just following the paperwork and website. Thought whatever information we sent to USCIS and NVC was enough. So he basically showed up empty handed at the interview. They sent him to get more proof and I fedex them to him..but I have no idea what he took since he said they told him they did not need to see the documents he had brought and gave him a white form with explanation of denial.

Good luck on your day but keep in mind

more than likely its a stokes interview

although U may not have live together yet

you both should know each others likes &

dislikes , kids and parents name, places of

employment , where U met, how he proposed

and maybe what U like about each other.

Stokes interview both of U R separated and

asked the same questions its important that

most answers match.....if its a bonafide

relationship U have NOTHING to worry about.

Go to youtube and watch clips from movie *Greencard*
