Hi, please help me what is 212(a)(5)(a)

So, you ask about 212(a)(5)(a). Did you in some way receive information with these numbers attached?  If not, why did you specifically mention this?

I am nervous now after reading this thread.  Ceac said “issued” for us, but we still have not received visa yet.

I was just worried , coz during the interview I was asked if I have an to work. i said MAYBE HELP MY FIANCÉS BUSINESS. Then one of the benificiary I met received that and research and in my understanding that something certification to work but someone clarify to me i'm fine and nothing to worry about. I thought that 212a5a has something to do with my answer.

Sounds like you have been turned down because you said you would be working upon arrival.  K-1 cannot work until they get all the necessary documents...usually 6 to 8 months after arriving in US, even for your fiance.

I don't completely agree.  He asked if she will work.  He didn't ask if she will work as soon as she gets there.  Many beneficiaries never plan on getting a job.  I would hope that Rose would answer yes because she does plan on working here but of course, not until she can legally.  I think there was a vagueness in the question and an honest answer.  

 

Also, the OP has not received a 221(g).  She is just trying to do some research because she is concerned about that answer.  She has given her passport to the Embassy and simply has not heard anything back yet.  No 221(g) was issued.  

 

I think she is OK.  She answered the question honestly.

Thank you John... I was soliciting advises and I only count the positive one. 🙏

I'd advise following correct advises, not just positive ones.

But in this case they are one and the same.

I think some of the negative advice came from people who thought you were already issued the 221(g). It was an honest mistake. Everybody here wants to help you. Sometimes the bad is correct. I truly don’t know what the delay is for you but I sincerely doubt it has anything to do with your honest answer to the CO. 

 

Please come back back to let us know when you get your visa!

Rest assured I will share my journey. When it comes my answers I only qualify if participant has the same case or experienced according to my question or an immigration lawyer. Either bad or good I will take it from these two. But some members they are just make comments based on their instinct or no basis, so I ignore coz it won't help me. It just a wise I think like me who is already frustrated to choose whom to listen...

My fiancé already asked help from Senator and I hope to hear from them soonest and I also initiate to write to the consulate about my case through courier. I am praying and hoping this will go through...🙏
