We also submitted an I-130A that was not signed. To be extra clear, we put a note about it in the Additional Information section saying that the beneficiary is not in the US. Our petition was approved without any RFE.
I figured I would post here because I'm not sure where else to turn at the moment. I'm a U.S. citizen who got married last month in Oman to my wife who is a Bangladeshi foreigner (under a Residence visa). We are trying to collect the marriage certificate from the authorities in Oman but they keep asking for some kind of a support letter from the U.S. Embassy that acknowledges the marriage or indicates that they have no objection with the marriage that took place. Essentially they want the U.S. embassy to request for the release the marriage certificate on my behalf. I don't understand why we are being requested for this, but I talked to the embassy and they asked me to send an email with the details. I sent an email to them explaining our situation, and the response I got from them is "We cannot issue such letter from the Consulate". They didn't provide any explanation nor any possible solution. So I'm not sure what to do now. Our marriage contract was signed on our wedding day by Omani officiants, along with the proper witness signatures and everything. I don't know what these formalities are, but at this point I am not even sure if we are considered legally married at all. Has anyone had to deal with something like this?
Actually I was alluding to the Third party affidavit to use as evidence in support of bona fide marriage. I'm unclear as to whether including this would be helpful or not..
