Zero Updates after many.

[Derik-Lina 230]

We have had 11 updates from December until April 16th and then STOP. Zero since  

 

We have gotten NO updates since April 16. I have sent a a dozen Email inquiries since then.

Yes a dozen. I am sorry, but I will not sit and just wait for nothing. I remain Proactive. Anyhow, My congressman inquired about our Visa this week. He received an Email letter from the Consulate

(Thank you but no thank you...No one knows and every case is different blah blah blah) generic type of letter.

Still No Update. Not even after a Congressional Inquiry???

…Anyone know why? Experienced the same? 

 

Thanks

Congressional inquiry is just a "nudge" or poke at the embassy. The embassy has it's own unique powers and they make the final decisions.

congress has no control over immigration

Khoya, Info pass or whatever.  It is what it is regardless. My wife will be here nshlah sooner or later.

I am a proud American with A Service background and 100 s of thousands paid in Taxes over many years. I am A very successful man lhmdulah.

My beloved wife and I have great faith in my American government to reunite us soon nshlah regardless. We have everything needed and requested by the ConsulaTE.

Both my Congressman and Senator are on top of it, and my State Governor too. My lawyer will join in very soon and YES. They will make a difference no matter what dobab iliktroni will say here :)

The interview was in December, since then you got put in AP and were asked to submit the dreaded DS-5535 form.  This will take time to review as you know, to go through everything on that form and do additional checks which is common with Morocco.  All you can do is wait and not worry about it.  If your relationship is bona fide, and it sounds like it is very strong, you will eventually get through this.  I think sending too many emails to the embassy is counter-productive and will only annoy the embassy staff reviewing your case.  Constant email inquiries will not speed up the DS-5535 process.  I would suggest an email once or twice a month, maybe a monthly phone call but no more.  Emailing or calling every day will only drive you crazy.  Try to focus on work or your own interests.  And visit your wife as often as you can in Morocco or another place for vacations together, to spend time together, to keep your relationship strong.  My husband and I see each other every couple of months while we wait and it really helps.  Lots of messages to each other, emails, video calls every day.  Focus on your relationship and the things you have control over, and try not to stress about the things you can't control.  This long wait to be together really sucks but you will eventually be together if you really want to.  Good luck!

Is it possible as us citizen to have an infopass abroad with Embassy to request visa status ? 

Never heard about this before.
