    He will not be denied entry at POE if he has a valid visa. The medical inadmissibility is evaluated exclusively by the consular officer.

    “and I asked what evedince her mother brought and she said nothing just her passport and she was approved.” Right. Because B visas are evaluated entirely on the info contained in the DS-160 (the visa application). They are not obligated to look at any extraneous info brought to the interview, nor do they.
  3. SalishSea
    Do you really think that being “tall and gregarious” would influence whether her visa is approved or denied?

    Have you ever met in person before?

    They think you’re going to try to work/ overstay. The onus is on you to demonstrate this isn’t the case on future applications. Future visa chances depend on exactly what I’ve just said, as well as the terms of the visa you’re trying to get.

    They wanted to check your passport for recent travel…..

    Whatever they have declined to release regarding your case is specific to your case. Like I said, there is nothing you can do about it.

    LOL, you don’t have to call us “Sir.” Visa Journey is a public website, not affiliated in any way with the US immigration systems. The letter is stating that they declined to provide certain pages of the file because (for whatever reason) the risk of harm from releasing them outweighs your right to have them. The law requires them to evaluate this risk (it’s “standard”) for all FOIA requests. There’s nothing you can do- it is what it is.

    They’re known for being an unnecessary expense. Most people with uncomplicated cases have the aptitude to complete and submit immigration forms solo.

    I’ve seen an RFE for a BC of a person born in UK/Ireland maybe once in all of my years reading VJ (9). Yes it was dumb, but an isolated occurrence for sure. There is literally no reason to pay money to a company like Boundless. We did a K-1 (in 2018 it made sense- now I would 100% do a CR-1) from a similarly low-fraud consulate. Did not experience any of the frustrations you seem to be having. Anyone with at least a high school education level of literacy should be able to read and complete the forms adequately. And for questions that arise (which there will be), there is VJ. This is a DIY site.

    Why bother with affidavits from family? You’re just making things more complicated for yourself. Ireland is a low fraud country for US immigration, your petition packet does not need such fluff.
  13. SalishSea
    Obviously the next step is to respond to the RFE. Have you done that?
  14. SalishSea
    It is not a chance-based process. Definitely a risk.
  15. SalishSea
    Perhaps going forward, try to only use official sources for info about how to fill out forms for immigration.
  16. SalishSea
    “Engagement certificate” is not a thing. The issue with the last names could possibly result in an RFE or a denial. You likely won’t know for several months.
  17. SalishSea
    As it’s an additional form requiring adjudication, it absolutely adds time to the overall process.
  18. SalishSea
    And yet this info, copy/pasted by an official source by the OP, directly contradicts you: “Other people can assist you with your visa application. Note that under U.S. law (22 C.F.R. 41.103) you must electronically sign and submit your own application unless you qualify for an exemption. Even if someone else helped you complete the application, you (the applicant) must click the "Sign Application" button, or your application may not be accepted.” YOU are the one perpetuating incorrect info in this thread.
  19. SalishSea
    Who says 6 months before expiration? I’ve never seen anyone say that on VJ.
  20. SalishSea
    I mean either you could afford the fee, or not……that’s kind of the whole point of being able to apply for a waiver.

    I assume so. The state tax return is not relevant or required though.
  23. SalishSea
    No one in this thread said that. Assisting someone is fine. Signing “for” someone is forgery, so don’t do that. And like I said, there is no sponsorship or “invitation letter” for tourist visas, which is another misconception we see here regularly. No, she needs to sign it. Do not forge someone else’s signature on a US govt form.
  24. SalishSea
    The joint sponsor does their own I-864 with their own supporting documentation. It is totally separate from the main sponsor/petitioner’s packet.
  25. SalishSea
    Well let us know how it goes, good luck.
