  1. Priority Date 8th July - Detroit.

    Interview received for 3rd Nov - less than four months

    Letter says "initial interview" Is this normal wording in the letter?

    No progress on Employment Authorization or Advance Parole - 86 days over

    -------------

    You should give them a call as it has been more than 75 days

    My question is - The interview letter says "Initial Interview". Is this normal to have the word "initial there"?

  2. wow! I want to do the bio soon too!!! Did your case appear online first and then the letter came? or without updating online, did the letter come first? please share...

    Got info from Tier2 on 30th Aug that letter issued today for Sept 12. Online status still had errors.

    Went to local office on 31st Aug and they reprinted from their system and alliwed me to do bio.

    Letter received on 3rd Sept.

    Online appeared on 6th Sept. 60 days fron receipt.

  3. I've booked an infopass appointment to find out what's going on withe my case, I spoke to a guy from USCIS on the phone today who was really nice he was very chatty and he tried all my case numbers and stated they still didn't work for him either, he said the best thing to do is go for the infopass appointment and go from there. He did say I might have to reapply with my NOA1 notifications so I don't pay again but he thinks my file has possibly been held up somewhere, it was nice to chat to someone who was nice and made the time to listen to my concerns.

    I'll let you all know how I get on or if I hear anything else soon!

    After 30 days case escalayed with a tef no TIF.... But no response

    Spoke to Level-2 today. He said my case not in their sysyem even not linked to my A# file. He kept saying there is error in my receipt number.

    What should I do? The lawyer is very pasdive and says just keep waiting.

  5. She had a Green Card before. She went outside the country for more than 1 year. Had to apply for "Returning Resident Visa - SB-1". She was not granted and issued a "misreprentation" letter. We double checked everything but never could find why. All paperwork and the interview was truth and nothing but truth.

    So, it appears now that when we applied for her B1/B2 visa, they might have found out that they had denied her earlier SB-1 visa by mistake and corrected that mistake in their records now. But all this is our guess.

    We are keen to know what happened, and that's the help and ideas I am seeking

  6. Waiver 212(d)(3) is only for NIV, if there is any inadmissibility. For countries requiring visitor visa, it can be recommended by consular to ARO, if he or she is convinced.

    In my wife's case, consular recommended to ARO and ARO took 5 months to process. However later issued normsal visa without any waiver notation. Also issued 10 year visa, which would have been 1-5 yesrs if with waiver.

    I am not able to get any light on this case as to what might have happened. All FOIA not giving any clue

  7. My wife applied for B1/B2 Visa and at interview was approved and was to collect passport within 4 days.

    Later case was put in AP and was informed by email that she was inadmissible and if she wanted to apply for waiver.

    We replied the email saying we request waiver. This was the only interaction with consulate about Inadmissibility or waiver. Till then we had not heard the words of Inadmissibility or waiver.

    After 5 months, she was issued a normal 10 year visa, without any notation of waiver. Entered US twice since then, but no questions at the border. I am a US citizen, and was living outside of US till now.

    FOIA with CBP and also USCIS records ("A"file) came blank.

    It appears CBP had made some mistake and when consular recommended for 212 Waiver, ARO found that she was wrongly entered not inadmissible and redacted deleted or modified the records so she did not need a waiver.

    Is anyone aware of a similar case and how do we find out more details of what exactly happened?

  8. I know of a case where a visitor visa processing took 13 months of "Administrative Processing", but after 13 months, they issued a normal visa without any mention of waiver.

    It was indicated to him that the "inadmissiblity entry in CBP records" had been corrected/removed.

    So, if you believe there may be no inadmissiblity, then longer wait might mean it will get removed for ever.

    Good Luck

  9. We are married for 20 years and I became US citizen few years ago. Since then we have been living in a third country.

    Now came on a visit to US on a return ticket, with a plan to go back to home country. Have joint property, more than half my life's savings in home country bank.

    Now after 2 months of arrival on visitor visa, we are planning to stay back and apply for AOS in Detroit.

    Any comments if there could be an issue at the interview about entering on visitor visa?
