questions about process

[Steve123 0]

My fiance recently had her interview in vietnam.  When she went to the counter they did not ask for all her information. just a couple things.  she waited a few hours and when they called her up they asked her a few questions and then gave her a  blue slip wanting more information.  Does anyone have experience with this. what are our chances of getting approved. I mean ill try 100 times to be with her, but we are both very worried.  We have all the information they wanted and then some. Only issue is that they want a credit card reciept showing i paid for the plane tickets on my first trip there.  I had cancelled that card over a year ago and my old bank says they only keep records for a year so thats out. I still have visa in passport and receipt from travel site saying i paid for them, pictures from that trip. Im very worried. 2nd trip i have the cc receipt, boarding passes, hotel receipts etc.  First time i stayed with ther family becasue they wanted to save me money on hotel.  We have letters from her friend and family, as well as mine and also from my kids. please help, good or bad responses are welcome.

Have you tried presenting the travel website receipt?  If you did and they insisted on a credit card receipt, then I got hopeful over nothing.  That sounds reliable to me. I haven't heard of there being an issue with who paid for a trip if the fact that the trip was taken is not an issue.  

 

Another way to check for info is if you have a frequent flier account with that airline.  I used my FF account statements for proof of a couple of trips. 

 

But I would question why it matters so much whether you paid for the trip or your uncle did.

They want to know if you paid for the trip or not. Here's why:

If someone else pays for the trip, it looks like 1) You can't afford the immigration process and/or your fiancee. 2) It could be that someone is paying for you to do a sham marriage. That's immigration fraud.

 

I have a hard time believing that you can't prove payment for a trip. Your past statements are online and/or printed. Your bank can absolutely go back and get records - that's a requirement. Records are usually kept for at least 5 years, mainly because of the statute of limitations for crimes.

 

If you aren't paying for the trips - or can't prove that you have - I think you'll have a hard time getting the visa. Vietnam is a high-fraud country and pretty tough consulate. My advice is to get your financial house in order and give them what they want. Good luck!
