So this is strange..he was told the medical was missing the vaccination record and so he went back to the hospital and got them same place he did his embassy medical and came back yesterday at 2pm as instructed in the paper given 2pm tues or Sunday 2pm. and left his passport and the medical vaccination paper as required. Now in the email there has been scheduled another in person follow up interview for 8 am on Sunday the 24th. I have no idea what he needs to bring.

I can be persuasive..  Then asked for citizen services they have outside phone service.. And some crying and pleading got the contact and he got my info and walked over to immigrant visa department. In a couple hours we had the packet 3 email.Then when we missed the last interview due to no passport I called and gor a very friendly I think Asian lady receptionist and cried and explained and she gave me a extension to call and said call back at 9am their time..and when I did it was the same guy that helped and as soon as I told him what was going on he said I remember you..and said send them an email what's going on and he would go over and have them take a look at it and work on it and the next day we got an email telling us after 4 days we had an interview and we hadnt even scheduled. So that man is an absolute blessing.

I even forgot the time difference once on a Friday at 3am and had a super friendly American man answer lol

Congratulations!  

 

How on earth were you able to talk to ANYONE inside the embassy?  They didn't answer the phone or emails at all.  At least not for me.

I have seen other people they ask tax return for k1. But they also say you need bank statements and letter from employer. I did not provide the letter for the employer. As long as you provide proof of income that should be good.

Just now, j.b. said:

thank you.

I asked him now if they asked for affidavit of support/bank statements/w2/ or tax returns but he hasnt replied yet. I will let you know what he said.

I try to reply and stupid page pops up ads. No. As said many times I purposely have NOT filed 2018 tax return so no I did not provide it.

So update.. 

Abu Dhabi hospital left vaccination records out of the medical folder. So he had to go back to the hospital there and is there now getting the required paper. He has to bring it and his passport back to the embassy at 2pm and then the visa will be issued. She said he is approved pending that paper . yay!

This is fantastic good luck. That Texas connect is an awesome person. They helped out a lot when a friend has a serious challenge there. 

And I didn't have to pay another interview fee. It was a blessing to find a nice person so willing to help. This person works in citizen services and would walk over to immigrant visa services and ask them to look at my email and help get me a 3rd appointment. This one I didnt even schedule just got a friendly email from the embassy saying simply, "good morning. You have an appointment at 8 am Feb 18. " and the got 4 other emails from the usvisainfo and us citizen services . Now just to make it thru the interview. Here's praying.

I hate that this happened. Were you able to reschedule? 

Found a new friend inside the embassy that just moved from texas (where I live) and have been loads of help. After fighting..Passport in hand and in less than 2 hours an interview is scheduled at any dhabi.

If they renew the visa the applicant will undergo medical again for the new to be issued and it includes new emirates id.

the HR or the PRO are the responsible person who hold the passports.

 

it means if the visa will end jan 30 your fiance can stay in UAE until March 1,2019 ( 30days grace period). 

Yes I know dear. He gave them his passport Jan 27 to renew and had done the medical Jan 24. And still trying to get and find the passport . interview in 2 days.

Prayers needed please. Embassy scheduled and sent us an email. Interview Monday. Still need passport. 

And can not reschedule so this is our last chance for this k1 application is to get the visa. There is no smooth way anymore. Found out when he went to municipality that the system shows the owner of the company did NOT renew his work and residency visa on Jan 30th and the owner now says he does not have the passport that he took it to the office that renews the work and residency visa. Blamed it on one of my fiancee secretaries. He has two, saying one did not take the passport to renew when she was told to do so over 2 weeks ago. Still we are asking for prayers of any kind to resolve and get the passport in time

Prayers needed please. Embassy scheduled and sent us an email. Interview Monday. Still need passport.

Thank you. Everything happens as it will. The owner tried to smooth things and given him a cash bonus today. Still fighting for the passport. And I got emails from the embassy saying I can reschedule without paying the 265 again. Still happy about that. Just need the passport now

Again, I am sorry I know it is upsetting. I did not mean to offend you. I know working there is not the easiest thing since owners abuse the workers with unrealistic expectations. I pray that he will get his passport and you both are together soon.

Dont worry. I'm not offended I have been fighting all day. Long story but I have a contact in the embassy and have already gotten an email saying to reschedule and system should be open tomorrow and I will not have to pay the visa interview 265 again. And ive been on thephone to Jordan as I am close friends with the owner of the company's in laws.. Very complicated but they will help me. I spend holidays at their house

Does it matter at this point why someone would choose to treat someone else as a slave? No. It does not. Yes, we were forthcoming also. As I said even offering to pay the visa renewal fee. He already works him 14 hours a day 6 days a week and is the only civil engineer in the company. This is why. He wants him to finish projects first.

Yes he is allowed to visit Jordan because the owner is from Jordan and knows he will not go there to stay. There is no work at all for him there.but u.s. is a different story

So sorry to hear this. My fiance just came back from Pakistan after visiting family and he has his passport in hand but his boss has been very supportive in this process. We were very forthcoming regarding him leaving the company. 

 

Do you think this was because he renewed his work visa?
