Just curious - what was their reason for refusing you? If you can say.

There was no factual reason, it was a biased assumption and speculative BS. No factual reason was given.

I asked what the problem was she responded she did not think we would have a lasting

marriage.When asked what brought her to such conclusion she responded : Nothing, just a gut feeling.

Case was returned, expired. We re filed, were approved again and are currently waiting for NVC case number.
