FYI we had our interview scheduled in September, cancelled, then rescheduled in March. Be prepared, sometimes they put you at the end of the list again.

We actually finally got our (2nd) letter for interview a few days ago. We will interview March 13 if no further BS occurs. The screw job is great with this case. Interview for November 2021 Asked for evidence we were in marital union together for the full 3 years, which was sent Rejected April 2022 as described in this thread. Reapplied May 2022 Interview Scheduled September 2022 Interview mysteriously cancelled New Interview March 2023 It's like they canceled the first interview then put us back at the end of the list for no reason at all. Hopefully it won't be cancelled again. For those thinking something I promise there's nothing complicated about our case. I met my wife while vacationing in her country. Both single, never married, no children, 3 years age gap. I visited her 5 times in a year for roughly 6 months total time together in her country. Many photos and receipts. We got the CR-1 no problem. We lived together the whole time in the US and have a house in both names, a child together (now 2!), filed taxes jointly, etc. There is no red flag. This can happen to anyone.

We reapplied. There was no point in contesting because it might take longer, we might lose, it costs roughly the same, and we are pretty much guaranteed to succeed on reapplication. We got a very fast interview scheduled in September, then they cancelled it. Months later we are still waiting with no interview. Don't risk it over the 3 months.

We are the ones linked to as a warning of what might happen. We're still waiting on the second application to get an interview scheduled after reapplying. I wouldn't recommend risking the 3 months. I believe we were in the right, but our officer didn't and it's probably going to cost us 1 year and $700.
