Asia: South	How was your day today?	I'm new to this, but have lurking around this forum for a while... I just wanted to say I've always been fascinated by the Indian culture! I read translated Hindi books and listen to Indian Music although I don't usually understand a word! .. I tried learning Hindi and Malayalam.. I've always wanted a Saree and finally got one last month! LOL (I didn't know they are that hard to wear though ) Anyway, you guys who are Indian or have been to India, you are lucky! It's really a dream of mine to go to India one day! Much love from Egypt! Aya Edited by Aya&John, 17 December 2009 - 03:07 PM.	~ameriptian~	Not Telling	Egypt	12/17/2009 15:03
Asia: South	How was your day today?	QUOTE (estadia @ Dec 16 2009, 12:57 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> star what is the difference between administrative processing and additional processing? sara I am glad that they are responding to you this is a good sign . They have everything from you but just doing the administrative processing, so I am sure once they are complete with this their will be good news. I wil continue praying for you Sara. On the other hand I have no respond from the Mumbai Consulate. I called DOS again and they just said additional processing and not administrative processing. They are just pending decision on the documents I submit. I am waiting for the signature and I should have it by next week. Star I don't know if one is better then the other. Just taking an educated guess on this. Additional processing is when they are pending additional documents, and administrative processing is when they are doing background check. That is a good question, but still does not explain why they stated do not submit passport on the bottom of his 221g. That would only mean they are doing administrative processing. Completely confused myself now.	Starlight95	Not Telling	India	12/16/2009 1:52

As stated in our previous response, Mr. xxxxx application continues to be pending under Section 221(g) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) for administrative processing.

I am glad you are enjoying the holidays with your fiance. Well, currently I am emailing the consulate on a regular basis, but they do not respond when you get a 221g. So, today I am hoping I get lucky and get a liveperson to talk to from 2 to 4 pm indian time. I should be getting the religious divorce decree by next week the latest. Then submitting to VFS and saying a prayer that the outcome is positive. Edited by Starlight95, 15 December 2009 - 10:42 PM.	Starlight95	Not Telling	India	12/15/2009 22:42

Asia: South	How was your day today?	We submitted a notarized statement from my parents already. Now I guess you are right I will have him submit another statement from his parents.	Starlight95	Not Telling	India	12/7/2009 14:57
Asia: South	How was your day today?	Thank you so much Sara! I am going to take this all into consideration and get it to him asap. You are right it seems like the were trying to find reasons to refuse him, but he managed to answer every question that was thrown at him. I can't even imagine to tell you some of the questions they asked him about me. Its really insane. He got upset when they started asking these nonsense questions about me, but he managed to remain cool. Finally, at the end they managed to say we agree with your relationship and as long as you submit what is required you will be fine. So, that is a good sign. Yeah, I remember that one person on VJ that had a similar situation and she got the visa. So, I guess I can see a light at the end of the tunnel. Tonight I am going to call the embassy and ask them exactly what they want. Tomorrow I am calling DOS. I did not sleep all night as this has been a stress on me and my family.

What else can they possibly want? Star get a notarized statement from your parents and his........included in his should be that they know about ur divorce it seems its going to be an issue with that embassy so better to hit it head on with the statement from his parents..........if you have any phone records of calls together that is more evidence........try to satisfy anything that they could even ask for.........also you urself should call the embassy at once and see if you can get any answers or if they want to interview you since it seems they are asking more from you than is necessary.......what u can do from ur side is what we did with perviz get notarized statement from ur family and also the Islamic divorce decree scan it send it email then send the hard copy to him so that he has it if they want it instead of the scanned copies it allows u to get the required evidences to them faster than sending it three or four days later.........im sorry girl thats all i got i cant think of anything else sara My divorce happened in India so I will get that from there.

Asia: South	How was your day today?	If you can possibly make it through Christmas, January is known to be the worst month for sales of anything, so there will likely be some really good deals, better than the economy boosting ones that are around now. Some of the deals may start to show up just before or just after Christmas. You can take the time now to start figuring out what is important to you (as far as features go) for your new car.	ms_jinga_lala	Female	India	11/23/2009 19:43
