maybe some of you know of my situation, fiance in new delhi, had his interview august 3rd and was denied saying our relationship not bonafide. I have sought much help and emailed all over creation for help in getting second chance. We got senators involved . yet they told my sentor office we were denined still. NOW after application has expired and all hope drained.. they email me at midnite 9/1/2011 (today) we have a second interview, BUT they want me in NEw Delhi by 10am tomorrow, IMPOSSIBLE. No flight I have checked will get me there in time. I emailed them this info and am waiting, i called the embassy and got nowhere they said allow this hard fought for interview to pass then come and pay them to reactivate a nos how interview. What? i call the senators office and told them everything , they agree its not right and they dont like that the embassy lied to them about our case only to come back and give us an IMPOSSIBLE 2nd interview date. For now we wait to see what will happen as the senator office will again contact embassy. Has anyone ever dealth with this before? I have talked to a lawyer to see abt what else we can do. There is no flight that is able to get me to India that fast.. we had only a few hours notice? thats ridiculous. any other ideas?

I agree! That's horrible! I really hope the senators will help you further with this case and get a reasonable interview date. I don't understand why they would be acting in such a manner. I wish you the best of luck.

I am so sorry you guys have to deal with such cruel and injustice idiots!! I pray you for our government to intercept and help you guys because this is just not right!!!!!headbonk.gifheadbonk.gifheadbonk.gifheadbonk.gif

Si, man -- the ####### consulate in Guayaquil, Ecuador has done this.

As for you, when you're rescheduled so that you can be there, fully expect a Stokes interview. These are not pleasant, and you must be prepared both informationally and emotionally. See this thread:

http://www.visajourney.com/forums/topic/207292-embassy-wants-petitioner-at-next-cr-1-interview-any-advice/

I'm truly sorry for what you face next.

06-04-2007 = TSC stamps postal return-receipt for I-129f.

06-11-2007 = NOA1 date (unknown to me).

07-20-2007 = Phoned Immigration Officer; got WAC#; where's NOA1?

09-25-2007 = Touch (first-ever).

09-28-2007 = NOA1, 23 days after their 45-day promise to send it (grrrr).

10-20 & 11-14-2007 = Phoned ImmOffs; "still pending."

12-11-2007 = 180 days; file is "between workstations, may be early Jan."; touches 12/11 & 12/12.

12-18-2007 = Call; file is with Division 9 ofcr. (bckgrnd check); e-prompt to shake it; touch.

12-19-2007 = NOA2 by e-mail & web, dated 12-18-07 (187 days; 201 per VJ); in mail 12/24/07.

01-09-2008 = File from USCIS to NVC, 1-4-08; NVC creates file, 1/15/08; to consulate 1/16/08.

01-23-2008 = Consulate gets file; outdated Packet 4 mailed to fiancee 1/27/08; rec'd 3/3/08.

04-29-2008 = Fiancee's 4-min. consular interview, 8:30 a.m.; much evidence brought but not allowed to be presented (consul: "More proof! Second interview! Bring your fiance!").

05-05-2008 = Infuriating $12 call to non-English-speaking consulate appointment-setter.

05-06-2008 = Better $12 call to English-speaker; "joint" interview date 6/30/08 (my selection).

06-30-2008 = Stokes Interrogations w/Ecuadorian (not USC); "wait 2 weeks; we'll mail her."

07-2008 = Daily calls to DOS: "currently processing"; 8/05 = Phoned consulate, got Section Chief; wrote him.

08-07-08 = E-mail from consulate, promising to issue visa "as soon as we get her passport" (on 8/12, per DHL).

08-27-08 = Phoned consulate (they "couldn't find" our file); visa DHL'd 8/28; in hand 9/1; through POE on 10/9 with NO hassles(!).

Sherry, I'm so sorry this happened to you! If I had known what Yasphal was going through during the first interview, I would have marched up to the window and vouched for you!

I hope they reschedule for a reasonable time.

Hahahaha... Thanks Bec, very nice of you,I meant to ask how everything was going with you guys?

AP is a succubus to my soul. I CAN'T STAND not having access to information, like a general timeline or why we're in AP or what the steps are that are happening behind the scenes.

I still look for Christmas presents...surprises that I know are coming are just not my thing.

I would seriously rather be waiting for a NOA2 and KNOW the wait is 5 months than to be in AP and not know, even if it's over in two months.

I hope they don't pull a *massengill* :devil: move and put you in AP after your interview. The good news for you is that the few stories I've read about 2nd interviews in India have all ended happily.

Enjoy India and take an empty suitcase so you can bring back some of his stuff!

maybe some of you know of my situation, fiance in new delhi, had his interview august 3rd and was denied saying our relationship not bonafide. I have sought much help and emailed all over creation for help in getting second chance. We got senators involved . yet they told my sentor office we were denined still. NOW after application has expired and all hope drained.. they email me at midnite 9/1/2011 (today) we have a second interview, BUT they want me in NEw Delhi by 10am tomorrow, IMPOSSIBLE. No flight I have checked will get me there in time. I emailed them this info and am waiting, i called the embassy and got nowhere they said allow this hard fought for interview to pass then come and pay them to reactivate a nos how interview. What? i call the senators office and told them everything , they agree its not right and they dont like that the embassy lied to them about our case only to come back and give us an IMPOSSIBLE 2nd interview date. For now we wait to see what will happen as the senator office will again contact embassy. Has anyone ever dealth with this before? I have talked to a lawyer to see abt what else we can do. There is no flight that is able to get me to India that fast.. we had only a few hours notice? thats ridiculous. any other ideas?

I'm so sorry Sherry that you have to deal with all of these cruel things of the process. I hope that everything will work out for both of you and that you will be re-united forever asap. Keep us updated.

Don't let them bring you down emotionally show them who is the BOSS :)

I've heard awful stories about dealing with New Delhi but this takes the cake!!! You can barely fly across the U.S. on that short of notice let alone India!

I don't know why they have to make so many couples suffer at this magnitude, especially interracial couples. It's absolutely HORRENDOUS.

I am so sorry :( Hang in there, you're doing all the right things. Things are bound to work in your favors now.

I am the petitioner.
