my CEAC Status confuse me.. help anyone...

[M-M-M 4]

Hi everyone...

I am alittle confused with our CEAC status... so i wrote my case no. and 2 status appear....

if you click the submit.. it automatically shows..

ADMINISTRATIVE PROCESSING and it is updated everyday...

However, there are 2 status... at the bottom, it also says REFUSED with the same date. so when every i click the status at the bottom.. thats the status that show on the main status.. and both has the same date and both are updated everyday.

I do not know what real status is.. if we are under AP or REFUSED...

during the my interview, we got the section 221(g) due to lack of documents.. i passed the lacking docs. and waited for a week now.. i called the embassy and told us that the recent documents i said isn't still enough and unfortunately we got refused.

im not sure whats up with our case now. the AP and REFUSED status in our CEAC status appeared before i sent in the lacking documents. now, its still see the 2 statuses after i called... but the date are all updated everyday.

I can anyone help me? who has the same situation? which is really my status right now? the refused or the AP? I'm so confuse.. help.... should i believe on the 1st that says CASENO###### 01? or CASENO###### 02?

I attached a photo of the two status....

Are you the beneficiary? Just contact the US Embassy. My fiance just called them to get clarification and they were able to help him a lot.

I also sent them an e-mail a few days before my fiance called, and I got a reply within 10 days.

By the way, my fiance "called" through Skype. That's free.

Not sure if there's a fee for calling the landline number.

thank you for your reply. it means a lot.

I don't have any direct experience or knowledge on the subject, but there's a good explanation of a 221g here; http://www.visarefusal.com/221g/

Technically, 221(g) is considered a denial; in subsequent visa applications and registration in the Electronic System for Travel Authorization, this must be disclosed. Nevertheless, the overwhelming majority of 221(g) denials are overcome and visas issued.

Hello,

yes, it is true a refused visa is basically a denied visa... but what I'm confused about is.. i have 2 statuses which is refused and administrative processing... both same date.. I'm not sure which category we are in.

so confused right now because iif we are really refused. they still did not give me any notice or explanation that we are refused for the 2nd time. and i am confused because they still have my passport with them.

The Visa is classified as "refused" while administrative processing is going on. Once they finish doing whatever it is they're doing, it will hopefully be approved, but you're stuck waiting to see if, or when that will happen.

Thank you so much for your response.. i truly appreciate your time.

i just hope its administrative processing than "refused"... we were refused at first because they wanted to see my fiancé w2 2013. we were lacking some documents. but we already sent it the lacking documents. and now, she lady yesterday said we are still refuse because my fiancé did not reach the poverty guideline still. in sufficient income. so i don't know what will happen next..

its really heart breaking.. i just need some advices on what we can do.

*** Thread moved from K-1 Process forum to the Embassy/Consulate forum -- topic involves that phase. Thread can be moved to Waivers/AP forum if that turns out to be the status. ***

thank you for your reply. it means a lot.

From everything I read from your postings you were refused a visa because of inadequate income, is this correct?

The petitioner's income must meet the poverty guidelines of the I-864P for himself, you and your daughter. For three people that is $24,412.

Did your fiance submit a tax return and W-2 showing at least that income? If not... did you try using a co-sponsor? I know USEM can be difficult with co-sponsors for the K-1, first and foremost co-sponsor it must be a relative, but even then no guarantees.

Thank you for your reply hank..

Yes, I guess we are denied a visa. Acceptance is a the key now... Anyway... They still have my passport... It's been 2 weeks.. So, I'm just a waiting for them to return it. And mayb give me a formal letter that states that we are really denied now and there is nothing we can do...

Is there anyone in the USA that would be a co-sponsor ?

Yes there is.. Actually I had their affidavit of support with us during interview.. But they told me they don't accept co sponsorship with k1 visa

USEM can be VERY difficult with accepting co-sponsors. First and foremost the only co-sponsor they will even consider with the K-1 has to be family, they won't even start to consider a friend or associate. Then even if it is family, the odds are all up hill.

What to do next? Get married in the Philippines and go the IR/CR-1 spousal visa route, the embassy has to accept a co-sponsor with that visa.

I know it is a "do over" but it's an option.

I actually sent my fiancé fathers co-sponsorship... I'm still hoping for a positive outcome... Because when we called the embassy and when they told us it's refused, the lady said they will return my papers and passport with in the week.... How ever, my ceac status says administrative processing and untill now I did get my papers and passport... It's been a week now..
