sorry you have to go through this. I know many from Morocco going through the same thing. It's a wait, but when you get the letter from USCIS to appeal, you then send in your proof of marriage.

Our case was denied Oct 26,2006 and it was sent back December 6, 2006. It finally was received at CSC 2-6-07. In May 2007, they told me my case was expired and they won't adjucate expired visas.

My case was a little different because the petition was originally approved at NSC.

Here are some emails from CSC after our case was returned. Things could have changed between then and now.

Thank you for your inquiry regarding the above listed 129f F petition. Said petition was returned to the California Service Center (CSC) by the State Department's [consulate/NVC] for review and was received in the CSC on or about 2/6/2007. All returned petitions are reviewed in the order in which they are received, and due to the high volume of petitions returned to our center daily and the various complexities involved in returned petitions, we may make no predictions as to the amount of time necessary to complete our review nor may we release the reasons for return to our center until the review is completed.

Once adjudicative review is completed, a CSC officer will notify the petitioner of his findings and what actions are available to the petitioner in response. If the petitioner has not received any notice from our center within eight to ten months of this notice, please do not hesitate to contact our office for additional information

In May 2007 , my congressman asked where my case was and they sent me this:

We do have the case here at our office, although I'm not sure why we have it since the Nebraska Service Center adjudicated the I-129F Petition. We really should not review a Consulate return from a decision issued by another office. We really should send this back to the Nebraska Service Center.

Additionally, at this time, due to our limited resources, our office is not sending the Petitioner any further notification from an Embassy or Consulate return on I-129F Petitions since the validity period has already expired (4 months), and we will not revalidate the petition. There would be no further action for the USCIS to take since we would not be revoking an approval that already expired. For the most part, concerning I-129F Petitions, the Embassy or Consulate returns the case to the USCIS as cancelled since the visa was not issued during the authorized period. The Petitioner may file a new I-129F Petition.

Like I said before, things could have changed between then and now. There isn't much information out there on what to do for returned cases. If my congressman hadn't contacted CSC, I would still been waiting for them to send me a NOIR or NOID and waiting to appeal instead of starting over. I wouldn't have filed a new petition until I obtained some confirmation that the old one has reach the end of the process. Otherwise, the consulate or embassy may reject the new one.

I hope this helps. Good Luck!

I got one a little over a year ago. I sent them my rebuttal as well as all of our proof, a 4 inch binder and additional pictures. The re-affirmed our petition and sent it back to Casa, who then approved the visa. It takes a long time but it is wise to keep gathering proof and start organizing it for when the day comes.

Hi DaveThao,
