It is possible that someone has been using your SSN number for years. A person might have made up a number years ago, a number that wasn't issued yet, and now it ends up being your number. This happened to JimvaPhuong's wife, I believe.
I would first get a free credit report or go to the SSA and ask for a report on that number. If there is old activity on the number, ask for a new number. It will take some finagling but it is a new number and should have zero activity on it - you don't want credit or identity theft problems haunting you throughout your life here because someone has been using your number before it was even issued.
A SSN is a unique number that is yours forever, not only throughout life but after your death too. That is your number and only for you.

The Tunisian Embassy will be normal on Monday, the yard is cleaned. New bullet proof window's replaced and the gates re-inforced. The amazing people that stayed there both Tunisian and American, though this whole thing....God bless you!!

listen you need to call every day the NVC until you have case number and invoice number , because with them you will pay the fee online , they are the numbers to log in the website
be ready when you call , with the first case number from uscsc and the name of the binificery and his date of birth and you name and date of birth
wish good luck

You're getting pissed off at the wrong party. The NVC property rejected your documents because your lawyer failed a very basic requirement; originals must be submitted to the NVC. You should be pissed off at your lawyer.

Lawyers for this process are useless. Mine set me back $1800 and delayed the process by 3 months thanks to is incompetence. He had no clue about the NVC process. If it wasn't for this website, my wife would still be sitting in Thailand.

EXACTLY!!! Send the originals followed with a translation, anyone can do the translation, it doesn't need to be "sworn"
Just make sure the person translating will state the following:
"I certify that I am competent to translate (foreign language) to English and that this is a complete and correct translation."
Put the name of the person doing the translation and have him/her sign it.
Good luck!

You have to send the originals in the native language as well as the translations. That's the way it works. You'll get them back at the interview.

Exactly. How is he supposed to get you deported if you are on a F1 student visa? I'm puzzled. I also suggest you move back to California and continue your studies there. Good luck!

Include some really strong personal affidavits from you and her with your petition. They're not required or asked for, but they will help. Just pour your heart out like you just did with us, and have her do the same. Some affidavits from your families would really help too.

All that information is important if I am the officer who interviews you
So just make sure you send all that proof into NVC with the DS230 form
All the extra evidence before the interview in a hard consulate is something I recommend.
They might not look at evidence at the interview
So make sure you send proof of all you just said.
If I was the CO then I think I would approve you!

It's OK, Hon. Just need a bit of support right now!!!!!!
