    AP after Visa Approved

    in Africa: Sub-Saharan

    Posted

    Sometimes in higher fraud rate countries, the Embassy will run an additional background check on the beneficiary after the interview and prior to actually issuing the visa. It could be that your fiancee has a common last name and it had a hit in a database somewhere or the Consulate simply wants to do one final check before issuing the visa.

    Also, sometimes it is a random AP where the Embassy takes a certain percentage of petitions and subjects them to an additional check before issuing the visa.

    In Middle Eastern countries, EVERY beneficiary is subject to AP because of the world climate.

    I hope your AP is short and the visa is issued soon. Best of luck!

    Oh No! I hope this doesn't happen to us, My husband needs to start his training ASAP for Soccor.

    God is great, I thank him so much..... :thumbs::thumbs::dance::dance::dance::dance:

    my fiance was at the consulate at 6am and was not called till 1050am to the window. The prescreener was overwhelmed with the evidence she kept telling my fiance its too much documents.

    The CO was nice, he asked how long my fiance has known me, He had looked into our album and documents and stated he has seen everything and it looked good.

    He also asked does he have any family here in the US. Whether they get along with my family? He has about the phone records, he stated he do make alot of calls and he asked my fiance about his phone number and if i had any other relatives in Ghana and he said yes. Because i was born and raised in Ghana. The CO stated we have overwhelming evidence and he is approved...

    Thank you so much my VJ family i really appreciate i wouldn't have been do it with out you. who ever came up with VJ is a genuis. This website is a great and fantastic website.

    Luv you my VJ family. :dance::dance::dance::dance::thumbs::thumbs:

    Hi VJ family sorry i havent posted since my husbands approval on Jan 11-10. its been crazy!! but finally good news. He was told to return and pick up his visa on Jan 22-10 only to be told that he needed to complete the DS230 form again, because they misplaced it somehow. Even though he signed page 2 during his interview, they lost the form. so my husband spent 2 hours trying to complete a government form, that he was not at all familiar with or even knew the answers too. for example, my parents date of birth, place of birth, etc. he had to call me at 230am to get this information.

    after he finally completed the form, they told him they had to give him a new date to come back and pick up his visa (Feb 5-10). we were both so upset about this, i was even more upset when i realized what form it was!! because he had his file with him, with all of the copies of every form inside. he never thought to look inside his files. The DS-230 form, he had it with him all the time. However, even if he had given them his copy, they needed time to process it again. he was dissapointed in himself.

    so thankfully all went well when he returned to the embassy on Friday feb 5-10, he received his visa!! I thought he would be jumping for joy, but he was so cool and calm, and emotionally devasted by this entire ordeal. we're both so happy this is over. I just want to thank my VJ family for your hugs and support.

    Im so grateful to all of you. now i have to prepare for his arrival, im looking for the best airfares from ghana to sanfrancisco. i didnt realize one way fares were more expensive than round trip. pray for me.

    Yes, I noticed that also about the oneway fare so we will book round trip and visit his family later.

    Congratz!!!

    We were rescheduled for March 22.....He looked so handsome in his suit. :star:

    Thanks to all of you who responded to my post, as some of you know, this is not an easy process, for some embassies its a nightmare. However, im grateful that my husband had a nice CO, and a calm interview. he said the worst part was waiting.

    As promised i will post the details of his interview at the Ghana Embassy, ive been so busy, that i havent had the time. I know that posting will help others that have to go thru that embassy. i will try and post in a few days.

    Again Thanks for your kind words and Congrats. Van

    Thanks to all vjers for their advices. My fiancee got her visa and we're done with that part :dance:

    I'm not sure which airline to purchase ticket from. Here's the deal.

    KLM TICKET: She'll go through amsterdam transit before reaching USA.

    Will she need a transit visa for that?

    I am not sure but congratz!!! What's your timeline from NVC??

    Anyone get I-130 approved 1st week of march?

    So can I still file for a K-3 Visa without the NOA 1?? Can I sent a copy of the check? This is confusing. Thanks :)

    Congratz, now you will need to wait until NVC gives you a case number.

    Kenza and Susan_seth..are you saying your I-130 was approved or your case was completed at NVC?

    We are Approved ! :dance: But I recieved our NOA 2 but I never recieved a NOA 1. Will there be a problem? :huh2:

    We are approved too!!! Actually we were approved lol because I had to call to find out they approved us 3 weeks ago! I never received the NOA2...

    I -130 Appoved
