    I am not sure if I half-won or half-lost the battle. Or maybe it's the same difference.

    It was my interview in Montreal today.

    Q&A went perfectly well - interviewer said she had no doubt that our relationship is genuine. All of the documents were fine, everything checked out, except for two things:

     

    First: My ORIGINAL birth certificate from the Philippines is no longer valid according to her since Philippines revamped their system and birth certificates are now in a form of a card with watermark as opposed to my very old and yellowing paper document with actual ink signatures and seal. She said I need to get a new and original copy from the Philippines ... Of course I would like to argue that you can't get any more original than the document that I was holding in front of her, so old and original that it can disintegrate any moment :)   but I didn't want to be perceived as annoying and stubborn & jeopardize my chance. I wasn't aware of the change that took place in the Philippines since I've lived most of my life in Canada. Of course the first thing I did when I got out of the interview & back to my hotel, was order one on-line. I just hope that Philippines will act on my request quickly.

     

    Second: The RFE on my Fiance's Decree's Absolute came up again. I mentioned to her that we've already satisfied the very same inquiry (RFE) at USCIS and thus got approved but she said she doesn't have a copy of what we sent to USCIS. I didn't even think of making a copy of my fiance's explanation why Decree's Absolute IS the divorce paper. Again, I tried to justify my case but didn't want to reach the point that she gets irked by my persistence.

     

    So right now, I am not sure if I should celebrate for the smooth Q&A, or cry over the 2 documents that we still have to produce & present. Oh my gosh, the loonggg wait!  This is a real test for true love.

    Wow, what an ordeal!! Sounds like things you can fix, just more waiting!

    This response from an online attorney at JustAsk has me in tears... say it isn't so!

    That attorney has no idea what he's talking about. What are they going to ban her for? Visiting on a valid visa? They're not going to ban her for anything. Worst case she'll be sent home but usually that is for something completely different than for wanting to visit her fiance. 

    I agree, no reason for a ban. My fiancé has been turned away at the border due to their suspicions of him trying to immigrate despite showing ties...it has gone both ways for him. All depends on who you get for the day unfortunately. I would bring a lot of documentation to show ties just in case

    My lawyer told me my case is assigned already and being adjudicated, but that was 60 days ago. and they gave me 45 days timeline. my lawyer again submitted an inquiry and their response is they can't give an exact date when will my case get a decision. 

     

    I think my papers are too detailed that they having hard time reviewing it

    Ugh! Too detailed? Did you provide too much documentation?

    Don't even think like that.  Denials at this stage are usually very obvious.  You have met at least once in the 2 years prior to filing and you have proof of an ongoing relationship and you are both legally free and clear to marry.  I don't think there is a whole lot of red flags with your petition.  

     

    That being said, the denial feelings will be with you until you are both past immigration at the airport.  Things are going good for us now but we are worried about the interview.  After that we have some filipino only paperwork that can cause another issue and if we get through that, we have POE in Chicago.  Any one of those spots can stop us dead.  How is that for a feel good!

     

    One step at a time.  You will get past USCIS.  I have faith.  After that you can take control!

    Yes, I know it’s silly...but of course irrational thoughts start popping into my head at this point lol! Yes this is just one part of the process ...then I’ll have something else to worry about haha!!
