We have been camping (about once an hour) USVisaScheduling for an interview slot since we have received Packet 4, which was near the end of March. My fiancee even got IP blocked more than two weeks ago for logging in too frequently, and for some reason, that IP still brings up the "Sorry, you have been blocked" page when trying to load up the page, and now both of us, regardless of IP, get the "Sorry, you have been blocked" page AFTER logging in and completeing the security questions. We have no problem, with that exception of that one IP, to log in and complete the security questions, but the "Sorry, you have been blocked" page always shows up afterwards. This issue been persisting for over a week.

For example, after logging in I get the "Sorry, you have been blocked" page. I reload the login page, and I can enter the log in information again to be met with "Sorry, you have been blocked" page again.

I found a loophole by entering a logged in web link, but since I'm not logged in, it gives me a login error and ask me to enter log in information then answers to the security questions. This does not give me the "Sorry, you have been blocked" page. Customer service does not help at all. They seem to have a template answer of, log in to your accounr and check the message we sent you. But there's no message there...

But setting that aside, looking at past timelines for K1 Visa on this site, it seems like everyone applying for K1 Visa in China is able to get their interview time relatively easy (an interview time of about 1 to 2 months after Packet 4). There is even someone else from this site that got an interview time on the same day I started trying to get it. From the little information I found, interview time for June is almost filled out if not already filled out. The reason why I gave the long background is, I wonder if there is potentially any issue with my account. I can't find anyone else with the potentially permanent IP block issue nor the weird "Sorry, you have been blocked" page AFTER logging in issue.

Comments, insights, or am I just worrying about a nonissue?

Hello!

We are in the process of filing/applying for adjustment of status using form i485. During the process, it says we need to complete a partial i693 because a full panel physician medical examination was already done in the home country of my fianc (now husband). The partial i693 has a vaccine worksheet part 10 that needs to be completed and signed in part 7 by a Civil Surgeon. We went to one today to finish this process.

I was under the impression that the Civil Surgeon/their office would sign the paperwork and stamp it then put it in a sealed envelope and hand it to me the same day. But this office is saying that they are going to send it to the State dept to have it officially stamped, sorted and sealed, then mailed back to Civil Surgeon's office and then that is given to us in a sealed envelope. They insist its a 2 week process.

Is this how it works for everyone else too?

My indian fiance attended his K-1 interview and was refused under 221g - not a denial, just a request for additional evidence. We've gathered all required evidence requested and prepared our response despite the challenges of getting notarized documents to India from the US and of getting us both listed on a bank account.

It was recommended to us that we get an attorney to complete a G-28 form to submit along with our response so it shows we have representation, to eliminate the potential for 'discretionary abuse of power'.

My question is would this actually help? And has anyone had luck finding an attorney willing to just do this form and not charge for the entire case?

Thank you,

Hi, I'm in the process of obtaining police reports from the countries i have lived in since I was 16. I am a Finnish citizen and I have lived in Spain, England and Ireland.

I believe I would be able to get one report from the Finnish officials that would include criminal records (well the lack of them but anyhow) from other EU countries. That should be enough, right? Would save me tons of headache and trouble trying to get these from abroad.
