Not sure if we have the list of 10 yet...

I have the same question as many people. My fiance has moved and I can't find the process of how to change his address in Bogota.

[Captain Ewok 1,859]

Hey all. Tomorrow I am going to go through the thread and find the top 10 Q's. Last day .

1. Why do the embassy authorized doctors in Bogota require that vaccinations be "fresh" and require beneficiaries to obtain and pay for vaccines they have already received?
2. Does the attendance of the petitioner at the interview have any impact on the outcome?
3. How does the embassy determine if the beneficiary and petitioner share a common language?
4. When petitioners attend the interview, what determines whether or not they are interviewed?

Thanks!

PS: By the way everyone, the name of the country is Colombia.

I agree with Bill's questions. I would also ask why they ask to see "proof of relationship" (photos, emails, and such) from some folks and nothing from others?

All of these questions that Bill poses are EXCELLENT.

I have one more:

Why does the embassy answer VISA questions only two hours per week ?... and if there happens to be a holiday on that day...oh well...skip that week!!!

I have a excellent question to ask. How is the Adam Walsh Law being handled. If there is a conviction on ether the petitioner or beneficiary. They say this is a broad law to be ineligible to file unless the reviewing officer feels there is no pose of threat to spouse or child? Attorney's do not even have the correct answer. This is such a new law under debate with USCIS and Home land security.

I'm about to send off the DS 230 to the London Consulate. I'm divorced and the USCIS have seen the papers etc and approved us. My question is: Am I supposed to give my ex-wife's details (Name of Spouse/maiden name etc) and rpoduce the original marrige certificate? I didn't for the USCIS.

How many petitions are received and set up for interview by month???

Why do you limit calls to just Wednesdays for only 2 hours instead of Monday to Friday and for more hours?

Why cant we pick up the visas anymore and have to wait for Domesa to deliver them if we are able to get them on our own??

Is this posted just for the Colombian embassy?? I see many from other places also posting questions

Just to add a one more to my questions"

Why the sudden stop in interview dating out of Bogota Colombia?

[neophi 5]

I concur. I was also about to add the same question.

Several of us have been waiting quite a couple of days for an interview after Packet 3 was sent. DOS representatives ensure me everything thing is fine and beneficiary is eligible for interview, but we are just in queue.

Why the sudden delay? Will packet 3's received by the Embassy on or before the 16th get a December interview?

Thanks.

Ewok do you have the list yet? I would be very interested in what they say. If you have not compiled it here is my question.

Why is there no information on Minors going through by themselves? I know this happens often as I hear stories, however I have not had any related to what my step kids will go through. As soon as I do I will post. I did email the embassy and they answered my question about who can go with the kids to the interview. The mother does not need permission, biological parent can always go to the interview.

My question is how will they conduct an interview on minor children on their own petitions. Mine are 15 and 11.

Thanks

Hello Everyone,

I am a Dual citizen of US and Canada born in U.S. Last June my Canadian girlfriend and I got married in Canada. We have residences in both U.S. and Canada but want to be in U.S. to finish building our house and take care of my severely ailing 89 year old father. As I understand it, I can file the I-130 from within U.S. but she cannot return if she leaves to see her ailing mother in Canada. Is there any way for her to be able to leave the U.S. and then return while her papers are being processed? Also, should I file for a CR-1 rather than I-130?

Thank you

[NArocks 13]

Ewok,

We are waiting for the list and the answers let all of us know PLEASE

[LonelyforLagos 0]

I see all the questions but with the exception of one reply from a consular I don't see any answeres to these very good questions? Exactly what I expected. These peopel aren't trying to help us get to America, their job is to keep us out.
