221g in Juarez for K-1

[noviademexicano 0]

We had our first interview in early January and we were given a 221g requesting additional evidence of our relationship and the CO also requested my fiance's last 3 employers. The CO was quite rude and presumptious. My fiance took a bus back to SLP and I came back home by myself. I was not sure how we could turn this evidence in so I email CDJ to ask, since the sheet was not clear CDJ said to come in any weekday M-F between 8-10 am.

We went again in late January with additional evidence. The CO would not take additional evidence and said we were both ignorant and couldn't read and he told my fiance to not come back until July 2006. I was angry, I did go to the citizen services section and the person behind the glass window at that building told me they really did not have anything to do with the visa section. I told him I would contact the senator and he told me that was probably the best thing I could do. Well anyways I did write several letters and make several phone calls but none of the State reps have responded yet.

I will keep trying and I also sent in the additional evidence that the CO who insulted us would not take, and a letter to the supervisor. I also emailed the supervisor of Visa Section and still have not received a response in February.

I called the State Department and asked them if they were done with there extra security checks. They told me they weren't doing any checks on this case. That the consulate was just waiting for the additional evidence.

Since then I've gone to Mexico to visit my fiance with my youngest child and spend some time with his family. He is depressed and so am I we had plans to marry this month and now we are uncertain of the future. I know that I will go marry him over there and live over there if I have to but I don't want to. My children and I have our lives and family here. There are times that I feel hopeless and other times I am just angry. This process they make us go through is crazy and some of those COs don't know what they are doing. You would think they would give them better training. My question is why is the CO making us wait 6 months to turn in the evidence, is he just being a jerk?

Well anyways I have not been able to post for months, I decided once and for all to let it all out.

Thank you for your kind words, I keep hoping something will happen out of the blue they will approve him, prayers for patience, faith in God and our love for each other are the only thing keeping me sane. Like my fiance says, In my heart I know we will be together eventually.

My lady is in China and had her interview Dec 1, 2005 and recieved the 221 (g) for Administrative Processing. They wouldn't tell us the reason and still don't know. I have sent many emails to the embassy, HLS, and DOS but always receive the same response "Administrative Processing please wait"

I am very sorry to hear of your experience. I urge you to continue to try and contact your elected officials including your senator! I wish you the best!

I believe you may have misjudged the situation, often the petition is returned to the US for re-consideration and that takes 6 nonths.

Best site for Mexico is www.immigrate2us.net. You will get more feedback there.

Boiler: I called the State Department and asked them if they were done doing checks, they said they weren't doing any checks on that case. That the petition is at the CDJ consulate that they were waiting for evidence to prove our relationship. I don't understand why the 6 month wait, if it is just sitting there. I sent in 50 pages of additional evidence in February photocopies of pictures together, wedding dress reciept, engagement ring reciepts, hotel reciepts, passport stamps, picture taken of me with his family, airline tickets, cell phone bills, letters. I have not even had a reply. When we took all this in January the consulate officer did not even want to take it, he said bring it in July.

Samuel: I'm sorry to hear about your case, it makes me angry that they cannot give a justification why it is held up. I hope you hear something soon. Contact your senator, I just wrote to mine today and include an authorization form signed by you authorizing the office to inquire about your case. Their is a number that you can call I will try to find it. That is where they can tell you if they are doing checks and if they have been completed.

I found it! the number is 202-663-1225

Your right, it doesn't sound like they sent it back to the states. If so it would have stated it on the 221g letter. Have you tried your local congressman as well? Just keep pushing until you get their help, make sure you have your evidence all in a row to show any representative that will help you.

Also, have you thought about contacting a lawyer? Just a thought.

Good luck to ya!

I did consult with an attorney and paid him $100 for 30 minutes of advice, but did not hire him he wanted to $3000.00 to take my case.

I sent a letter with all particulars to my senator and I recieved a call yesterday that they were going to look into the case, the lady said hopefully they should have some information about my case next week. All this is just an emotional rollercoaster, down, down, then up fast, sharp curve, then down again.
