Im so sad. My interview not successful

[AnneiyAndJacky 0]

I feel so stressed and sad right now. I had my K3 visa interview yesterday. I have prayed a lot and received good luck from my friends and also here from visajourney. But still the CO didnt give me a visa. I thought I already have completed documents they needed. Ok, here it goes... I was really damn nervous before talking to the CO. he was nice though, first he asked me few questions about my relationship with my husband. and I able to answered it well.Then CO checked my husband's mom affidavit of support since my husband still in school right now and will graduate in august. (He used to have a part time job as a math tutor in his university). But CO told me that $30k income is not enough to support me since they already 4 in the family. The father doesnt work but he's receiving pensions. (They didnt include it from the support) The CO thought I could be a burden when I go the states. I felt rattled already and wasnt able to answer all his questions well. I kept insisting that they even have a paid property, but CO said as if my husband's family will going to sell their property for me... I even told that my husband will graduate soon and will have a better job and I will also planning to work and will able to support them as well. What a bit odd in his question for me is like, do u have money right now?! Of course I told the truth, though i have but still not enough. Is this part of the requirements that I should have tons of money here in P.I?! well, well, the CO gave the white form and adviced me to wait for my husband to have a job, they returned my passport anyway My I-129F petition still with the US embassy, they say I could present my husband contract of employment or payslips once he will landed a job. But I know it will take a lil more while. another timeline for me...

Right now, we are processing my I130 petition. It was approved in december. My husband's family is planning to find a good lawyer to help our case. This time, they are going to include cousins good income who is really willing to help.

You know what guys Im not really eager to go to the U.S. as soon as possible. All i want is to be with my husband.I have suffered a lot not seeing my husband. This feeling really hurts me a lot. Really!!!

Any suggestion about me case?! It was really a painful experience

Yes, it's best if you will consult a lawyer regarding your case. We have retained the services of an immigration firm with our case to handle complications which may arise along the way.

I'm sorry but It seems like your husband's income under the poverty line ?. If it is, then there's no other way to wait like what the CO told you. But keep loving and supporting each other. All the best for you.

It sounds to me like your husband did not meet the minimum income guidelines in order to sponsor you. I don't think there's a way for a lawyer to help; if he doesn't have the money then he doesn't have the money...unless there were assets he could have included but didn't. All you two can do is re-examine your financial situation and see if there is a USC who makes enough money to act as a co-sponsor or another source of income that you two didn't include. Also, make sure that the affadavit will be sufficient this time so you don't have to go through the bother of interviewing when the application is doomed from the start.

I'm sure it hurts but really...if the family's income isn't high enough, it's not high enough. This isn't really anybody's fault; it's just the law, and it is designed to protect everyone involved. It is not personal.

Hello,

What is the exact amount that you put down? I ask cause i went to the USCSI web site and I looked up the min. amount and if they have a family of 4 plus you that makes five, The min is $30,125.00

so if his father has a pension I am sure you will make it. Maybe should of put that on the form also. But I think that CO gave you some Bola bola.

I am sorry this happen to you.

Take care

My husband wrote a letter to USE stating that he's still in school and will graduate in august 2007 so by that time he can landed a job soon. My husband's mom put $30,000 income plus their fully paid property. But the CO didnt include their property. The reason why we want to hire a immigration lawyer because we are running my CR1 application.Of course we dont want to have a same mistake again. My husband is planning to have a full time job as well, since he only have 4 subjects left on next quarter. and we are also planning to include her cousin's income (like $45,000) to my CR1 application as a co-sponsor. So it would be my husband,mom, and his cousin's income plus their property.

In regards to his father pension, they didnt include it cuz they didnt know if they could.

If her income is only $30,000 then that's not enough.

They can't include the house unless they plan to liquidate it, i.e. sell it.

AnneiyAndJacky,

The consular officers in Manilla are known to be quite strict on the public charge issue, and based on what you have said the officer made the correct decision that you do not meet the requirements.

Two things that you might try:

- resubmit the financials to include the fathers pension

- your husband might get a part-time job to increase the family's income

That's a much better solution to the situtation than throwing away money for an attorney who can't change the letter of the law.
