Confused!

[Cathi 5,609]

My hubby is a gigantic .... I don't know what to call him. The CO asked him if this was a fiance visa and he said "I think so", our visa is IR1 which would be a CR1 by now. I don't know what to do now, the CO may be thinking against our relationship.

You seem to be just as confused. A cr1 is for couples who have been married for less than 2 years, and ir1 is for couples married MORE than 2, you have it backwards

No one here knows what I am going through being far from my hubby and I was freaking out when I started this topic because I didn't even consider that he will get on AP. I know he got nervous which is normal I guess, I was just freaking out because it's easy to confuse between visa classifications but not normal to confuse on what he was asked. I was not expecting that so I freaked out. We have waited for each other 15 years and I just wanted him to be here because I know there's no way for me to visit him unless I quit my job which is not an option at all for me.

Everybody gets AP.

Male Pakistan will always, ok there may be one exception get the longer variety.

Pakistan is AP central for obvious reasons. I personally do not think what he said makes any difference, but there is no way of knowing either way.

I have had only 10 male relatives come here without AP so that's not always the norm. I don't want to be insensitive here but a lot of males on these forums get AP because the couples have ethnicity, age and a lot of other differences and the guys appear more of security concerns. It boils me because 3 of my cousins hubbys just came without any such issue in the recent 4 months when their profession is actually more of a security concern than my husbands. A lot of male from Pakistan have given reviews in Embassy section too say they got it without any AP. This blows!!!!

I actually never heard of AP in my family and only heard about it when filing and coming on this forum. It's not about getting AP but when he would get OFF of it. I feel like they just sit on applications doing nothing like most of other goverment processes.

@Amkhan and everyone else. Thank you so much for your support especially Amkhan. After 1 month and 6 days of Administrative Processing my husbands visa was finally Issued. I always ha a feeling that the conselor would have approved him right away bcuz he was asked for no documents or evidence nothing and he was in AP only due to his visit to another MENA country 8 years ago. Anyway, I can finally breath, scream and go crazy.

WOW congrats for your success so party all night from ur hubby side hahaha good to know really happy to hear that i can feel the pain when couples far from each others since my wife in states and i am stuck here in middle east lol but good time comes with brings many joys & happiness.....

Wish you all the best for your happily married life and all the best for your Hubby too... tell him not too confused at next POE interview hahaha

[glamgirl88 38]

Don't worry I will keep him caffeinated, on point and dialed in.

Don't worry, you will be with your wife soon, it will happen and be worth it all. I pray that your comes through really fast.

[amkhan 108]

that's like a power of real girl educate him how to be confident lol

[glamgirl88 38]

Not that's not the case, he is actually super confident but I sent him a freaking 500 page binder that got to him literally 1 day before the interview so he didn't even sleep and I know the traveling to "Iran" question is what made him nervous because we knew that would prolong the process. He is super confident otherwise he wouldn't have gone through it like a champ.

[amkhan 108]

yes i know i was joking paki males are intelligant and confident no doubt..... u arrenged 500 pages for him and here i have no arrenge everything lol again wish u all the best dont forget to ahre POE experience so other VJs can get some info too.......

[glamgirl88 38]

Thank you. The sad part is the counselor did not even check a single thing in the binder lol, I workd so hard to make sure he had everything just in case they ask but they did not even bother. Oh well, it's all worth it if he got it.

I will write all our experience and update timeline too and will review ISB embassy as well. When did you interview?

[amkhan 108]

oh its good that they did not asked for more evidence infect you have some privacy the conversation between u and ur hubby is totally private and CO ask to see or read i would feel little acward....lol i m working on my evidences too m saving them as much as i can .... well i am waiting for my petitaion to be approve its been 4-5 months and our lawer is very slow......we r expecting NO2 on june mid so lets see....... life without wife is hell we used to go for movies dinner etc now nothing..... so when ur hubby is joining you and which part of states u guys going to live?

Thank you for sharing your experience. I put our whole packet together and did not include my husband (the applicant) on much of anything. I definitely could just imagine the exact same thing happening during his interview due to his ADHD.
