Congrats on everything working in your favor. Wish you guys the best of luck. word of advice. Don’t depend on the ssn check box on the visa application to work 100 percent. Be very proactive with the ssa. Give it a week after arrival and go to the local office and find out if a number has been issue. If not, immediately apply for the number. being all documents and ss5 application ready to go just in case. They told me to wait and it never happen. Proactive is the key.

Then it should be anytime now. I have a timeline inside my notes on my timeline page documenting when I got everything. It will even include the dates on when it became issued and when we received it from Dahl for some peace of mind

Yeah there isn’t really much you can do but wait. It also makes a difference on what they want from you. They may have to do more careful consideration depending on what document was requested. Because mine was a simple divorce decree with a raised seal. If they needed to they could have easily called the county clerk to verify. If it’s something more extensive then a longer wait time.

So when it got to the embassy. I think it took less than a week. They kept screwing around with the status. The thing you have to look for is the last time modified. It will stay refused until it isn’t but what I looked for is when they were looking at it. I think the date and time modified changed three times before it was issued

I would say just shy of a month because we had to get the document from the United States. Took about two weeks for the document to make its way to Colombia and about a week and a half for it to make it to the embassy for reconsideration. We sent the document off from Medellin. So if you are in bogota. You can hand deliver it quicker.

Just got back from the North Carolina DMV for my wife's ID Card. I wanted to get the real ID, but didn't get it because of the ignorance of immigration status and laws set. There were two options. 1. I-551 green card. 2. Valid, Unexpired Foreign Passport with unexpired visa and a I-94. Because I have the Temp I-551 CR1 visa with the endorsement, he was asking me for the I-94. I kept telling him that she didn't get one because the visa turns into a green card and isn't required for permanent residents. So, now I have to wait for the physical green card just to prove I was right all along. They didn't take thr time to read the visa and what it had to say. It gets so frustrating when government agencies don't talk to one another or people want to be incompetent and ignorant by not listening to the customer at hand.

We had our Interview at the Bogota Embassy today. My wife's visa status was given "Refusal" and was given the 221g Yellow paper stating that they need a certified raised seal divorce decree. I wasn't thinking and had thought I had a copy of the raised seal and didn't think to check if it was the real one, because I had so much on my plate. They kept my wife's passport. Now, I think I am just overthinking this, but I think it is a good thing that they kept it. I am thinking that once they get that final document that they will immediately issue her the CR1 Visa. My big issue is that I am in Colombia and the divorce decree is in the United States. I don't want to have to fly to Nevada to get it, but if I have to, I just might to get the ball rolling. Has anyone been in a similar situation?
