Asia: SouthNew Delhi finally updated their interview dates
Yesterday, I sent an email to the New Delhi Embassy website stating that their December 2009 list has not been updated. Here it was, December 3rd, and they still had November 2009. The website has always said they will updated by the middle of the previous month for the next month's interviews dry.gif. So this morning, when I checked, December 2009 showed. So if you have an interview this month, you can now verify kicking.gif

Asia: SouthReturned K-1 petition NOT re-affirmed by California SC
when we sent off our cr1, we front-loaded with over 11 pounds of evidence. with a full disclosure of our k1 denial. my philosophy is do not hide anything, especially because we are already in the system, and it is only a matter of looking up the documents most likely on a computer. good luck on your refile.

Asia: SouthIndian Tourist Visas
I received this email this morning from Travisa Outsourcing (the people that handle Indian tourist visas).

________________________________

In December 2009, India introduced a new rule that prevents Tourist visa holders from re-visiting India within 2 months after last leaving. That rule has been updated recently to include the following:

All Tourist visa holders, including 6 Month visa holders, and Non US citizens holding a Tourist visa are impacted by the new rule.
Some exceptions can be made on a case by case basis as decided on by the local Consulates. Exception reasons include sick family members in India.

More details are available here: https://indiavisa.tr...st_Visa_FAQ.pdf

Asia: SouthK1 Visa for 22 year old Thai girl


Why are you sending it to Nebraska ? the K-1 application goes to California for Nebraska residents and to other locations depending on where you live.

So but Nebraska will not help for the VISA part .. and will help later with the AOS process.

Read the Guide and also read the www.uscis.org (Government)


Hope this helps

Asia: SouthWhat do I do now?
first thing in the morning, call your senators. they will need an authorization from you in order to proceed. i would advise to fax it to them immediately. once you have the fax confirmation, call and speak to their immigration liasons. explain to them what happened. how you tried to get the interview moved earlier. how they scheduled the interview date after the expiry. ask them to do everything in their power to get a second interview. explain to them that you will make a personal appearance to ease any concerns the embassy has in issuing your fiance the visa.
Twisted KFemaleIndia1/28/2010 23:20
Asia: SouthWhat do I do now?
i agree, if u can go to the interview, go. i have never heard anyone later regret that they accompanied the beneficiary at the interview.
Twisted KFemaleIndia1/28/2010 10:03
Asia: SouthWhat do I do now?
i do not think an appeal (EOIR-29) will be accepted right now. your immediate goal (by contacting the senators and embassy) is to see if they can keep the case in NWD. then see if you can get another interview. tell them you will be there for that interview. give them your contact information. do everything, and anything you can to get your case to remain open there. if it makes it back to the usa, then it could tack on at minimum 6 months. ours was returned on december 29. we got the notice from uscis on feb 4 and a notice of action from uscis in july. so you do not want it going back. k1s do not hold as much weight as a cr1 or k3, so chances of appealing are slim to none.
Twisted KFemaleIndia1/28/2010 8:17
Asia: SouthWhat do I do now?
in the meantime, contact your senators, email the embassy, etc. when we did, the senators in my state did jack squat, but i hear there are some good senators out there. i hope yours are. email the embassy to see what is going on. you may get a generic answer. also try calling the embassy yourself. it is sometimes difficult to get through, but if you are persistant, you can talk to someone. i found it easiest to get a person on wednesdays. but i recommend calling every day. you can go to their website to get the phone numbers, and i think they have a specific time they answer calls. mondays were the hardest days to get through. it will keep ringing busy. i remember having two phones going at the same time, plus my then fiance's dialing in to get through. so yes, it will take persistance.
Twisted KFemaleIndia1/28/2010 7:24
Asia: SouthWhat do I do now?
one thing to know about delhi, they do not give color pieces of paper in general. all seem to be white. if they said they are sending it back to uscis, yes, it is a denial, and not AR/AP. they will specifically tell you if your case is going through mandatory administrative processing, or that they need additional documents. it sounds like they did not believe in your relationship and chose not to extend the expiry. they worked dirty in having your interview scheduled after the expiration so they could use that lame excuse.
you are right, DO NOT GIVE UP. we didn't, and there was no way we were going to. since it looks like you filed in VSC, if it does make it back, i would advise you to wait to see if they revalidate. that will take some months. if it had been CSC, i would have said as soon as it makes it back to the USCIS, to get married, and prepare a stronger case (which is what we did). i am curious to know what they stamped in his passport :blink: that part has me bewildered. again, until he scans the paper in, we will have to wait to give you further advice. the pinned topic on MENA on returned petitions helped us out tremendously.
Twisted KFemaleIndia1/28/2010 6:40
Asia: SouthWhat do I do now?
:wow: sorry about the situation. delhi is a tough consulate, but i have never heard of anyone getting denied on the spot there. when your fiance reaches home have him scan in the document and the page in his passport that got stamped and email it to you. until we know word for word, it is hard to advise what can be done. again, i am sorry :(

just read your post #3, when is the expiry date of your i129f? it sounds like they are choosing not to extend.

chance of a visitors visa is basically slim to none. heck, it is slim even if he never applied for another visa prior.

Twisted KFemaleIndia1/7/2010 6:35
Asia: SouthWhat's this mean?
the embassy doesn't give you a permanent denial. that comes from uscis. they are the ones who have the final say on reaffirming your petition or letting it expire.

Congrats Twister K! I havent heard of such form 155a/b. But I know one thing for sure, is that person changing planes in london Heathrow airport dont need any transit visa as long as they dont get out of the airport. My wife came through this airport and she didnt fill out any such form.

I hope this helps.



thank you on both accounts :) i was worried about him landing in london (he also has to land in bahrain). but i had received an email back from the UK embassy in new delhi, and they also confirmed that he will not need the transit visa. he will be here on march 2nd :dance:

Asia: SouthSubmission of documents to VFS before the interview? Or ok to submit on date of inteview?
i agree with everyone previously posted. it is most beneficial to submit before the interview to give the consular time to review the documents. would save from getting the 221g as a lot of COs will not look at additional documentation presented at the interview itself.

Asia: SouthMarriage certificate in India
yeah, he is aware of it. i think it helped that his parents were there at the court to verify also. he also had an attorney who also helped speed things along. i also had to get a letter from the embassy which i got on my february trip. there is always more to a story than people type. we had to jump through a lot of hoops.

also, the stipulation the court put on getting our marriage certificate within 10 days time was that we get married religiously first (arya samaj) then we can take those pictures to the court and they would issue our marriage certificate, essentially getting married twice.

as it was stated earlier, cash is king, which is how we got by. not really sure what happened, because my husband did most of the leg work. we got married in the arya samaj temple, where i had to sign a piece of paper stating i became a hindu. was on paper only, but it was our only way to bypass the 30 day wait.
