  1. Hi Nusa,

    It seems...sadly normal, that this is happening to you. My husband went through Damascus recently too, but besides obtaining a particular paper which only took a day's delay, he got his visa a few days after. There are two other members were who have also gone through the embassy and who may be able to help you if you need to understand more about the embassy, etc: Jennie-Ammar and santa_cruz. Jennie's hubby recently got approved after a long delay and Santa is gearing up to get it done soon. They are both very kind and sweet ladies...

    As for us...hubby took paperwork and bunch of evidence that weighed over a kilo. I don't know if that influenced them, but they did leave him alone for 90 minutes while they looked everything over...so maybe it did.

    It seems that in your case, perhaps they are just doing basic security checks to clear the final hurdles...especially if his name is a common Middle Eastern one, this may be more true than not.

    Don't worry and just wait..it will be done soon.

    Mabrook for getting this far :)

    Regards,

    Enraptured

    i am sorry to hear what you are going through :( try also to find russian attorneys and help in your area...maybe in brighton beach? i don't know where in NY you are, but if you are in NYC, you can try there...lots of russians...

    hope it works out...will post again if i think of or know someone who may help you (i've been working in law firms for a while now, so i will ask around in my circle...)

  3. I am sorry but I know I may sound harsh, here goes:

    Smack her upside her head, did she marry you for you or for your money so she can support her family? Just so everyone knows, I am the Filipina wife here. I do not and never expect my husband to send them money or anything else even though as everyone says its the Filipino way. I will not burden or obligate my husband in such a manner. My husband is the one who initiates sending gifts etc to my family, I would be the sensible one telling him our budget is tight right now, etc etc.

    By all means, tell her to work if she wants to send more! When my husband and I were courting, he was telling me about his friends who also married Filipinas and how they expect and know they are supposed to send money home to support/help the family. I told him no! That is not how I operate, I do not and never will expect him to do that, and to this day, I have never asked him to send them money or gifts. I do not think it is right, everyone thinks once you marry an American that the money just drops out of the sky.

    Sorry for the vent but I am outraged that your wife would FORCE you to do this and throw a fit when you are incapable of agreeing to her demands.

    :thumbs::thumbs::thumbs: i agree completely, you are not an ATM. she needs to chill and get a job to support them, or agree to the amount that you want to send and that's it...it's totally unfair for her to expect you to support her family. you married her....for her, not to be a piggy bank for her fam. not cool dude...hope you get it sorted out.

  4. besides their animal abuse crimes which are horrific, from their general disregard of human rights, to their tainted cheap and ####### products, yes china sucks and it has potential to become a scary presence in this world.
