I’m a widow and with k2’s.And we are on k1 and k2.I had my interview last Dec. 12, 2011 @ USEM Manila. And after the interview I got a 221g and the CO asked for my CENOMAR reverification. The CO asked for it coz my CENOMAR stated that I was never been married but in fact I was married and my hubby died few years ago. After the CO checked my CENOMAR and I saw CO really looks confused reading the CENOMAR, he asked for my marriage certificate and the death certificate of my late husband and I gave the original NSO documents to the CO. He was very confused about my CENOMAR to the fact that I just got the latest copy of it. He asked me again if I was married and I said yes! He was convinced about the death and marriage certifcate that I handed to him because they were from NSO.After the interview I asked if we were approved..and he just said “NOT YET”…….and told me to wait for my number to be called…….And when my number was called to window 72, the lady gave me a white slip(221g) and a reverification form , there was a checked on the CENOMAR and at the bottom it was stated “WAIT TIL YOU HEAR FROM US”. I was instructed to go to NSO Pasay or gave me 3 options to choose where to send the requested document.I chose via E-census and as I was instructed to address directly to US EMBassy IMMGRANT VISA UNIT.. I complied right away after our interview and applied via E-census. I got notifications from E-census that the document I requested was dispatched to US embassy last Dec 15,2011.
After I accomplished the 221g right after my interview. I was still in deep confused mode. About the CENOMAR I submitted to the CO during my interview,I was also confused with my CENOMAR and I contacted NSO on that same day (Dec 12,2011) about it why they sent me a wrong document and NSO admitted and asked their apology. After I contacted NSO , after 2 days I got a corrected copy of my CENOMAR and my previous marriage was now stated there. NSO was not so careful when sending documents and lesson learned …need to check the documents even if it is from NSO because just like in my experienced they sent me the wrong document that cause in a pending case whichI should get approved on the day of my interview
