Waivers (I-601 and I-212) and Administrative Processes (221g)AP TRACKER
has to get past the guard, somehow, Melody... Worst that could happen is that he's turned away. OTOH, interview letter in hand is useful, usually, even if it's not 'for today'.

Yup - that's the 'do-all, be-all, end-all' lowdown on when and what type o checks.

I paste it in often.

Waivers (I-601 and I-212) and Administrative Processes (221g)Ambassey said Visa is ready by this friday to be pick up, CEA says AP

issued is a singular event at the IV Unit.  There are other events occuring afterwards.

 

Once it's issued, a print-order is handled, the visa being PRINTED then glued to the inside of the passport.

Then the VISA Packet is compiled (this is the entire casefile)

then all is bundled for shipping,

then put in the mailroom for a courier to pick up.

Waivers (I-601 and I-212) and Administrative Processes (221g)Can I visit USA on my tourist visit visa and I am on administrative process for my immigrant visa?? Please help

I have a valid visit visa to USA but on the same time I have an immigrant visa under administrative processing,Can I visit USA on my tourist visa?? Please help

 

I guess it depends on where yer passport is.

 

Since the immigrant visa isn't issued yet,

and there's already a tourist visa glued inside of your passport,

 

I have to think the tourist visa has not be invalidated, yet.

 

USUALLY the tourist visa is invalidated by the IV Unit when the immigrant visa is issued.

 

Where's yer passport?

 

[note I'm saying 'maybe' here.   I could, of course, be dead wrong]

you not yet hold an immigrant visa, as

it's not been ISSUED yet.  Technically, you still hold the tourist visa until the immigrant visa is issued. 

 

 

where is your passport?  in your hand? at mom's house? at the embassy? where?

because you two want to file what?

seriously, what to file, exactly ?

I got all that,
but
you are seeking this no objection thingie . once you have it, yer to file something else.

My question - what is this other thing, this something else, that you'll file once you have the No Objection waiver in yer hand ?

you two are chasing a visa (K-1 or CR-1 )
or an adjustment of status
or something else.

Waivers (I-601 and I-212) and Administrative Processes (221g)received 221g, what to do?

Pardon - I thought you wanted to stop the process? Best way to have done that would have been to withdraw the visa application during the interview.

 

as to your questions - you give them exactly what they ask for.

 

You might get some 'slack' from the IV Unit showing his 2013 tax data.  Maybe.


DarnellMaleChina2014-01-14 01:26:00
Waivers (I-601 and I-212) and Administrative Processes (221g)received 221g, what to do?

I say wait a bit, get the 2013 tax year stuff done, submit it prior to the expiration date of the 221g submission date.

or

file a new petition this week, including ALL of the evidence you two have already gathered up.

 

Your choice.

Waivers (I-601 and I-212) and Administrative Processes (221g)Sent to AP for having a common name (CR1 Seoul). I'm devastated. Help!
IMO, there's nothing keeping YOU from leaving S. Korea, at the moment. So, if the working conditions don't improve, you can hop on the next plane to USA.

Sure, it'll mean you're still waiting for your spouse to come along after you, but ....

as to the additional checks - I've no idea on the name clearance thingie. The IV unit has to touch base with 'some office in the USA' at the moment, and has to wait to hear back from them before the visa can be issued.

Waivers (I-601 and I-212) and Administrative Processes (221g)embassy told to my fiancee congresman that they sent our case to uscis cuz i am married . and this not true. so what should i do?

should i send email to embassy to inform them that is wrong information or only with congress a?nd uscis


The USCitizen Petitioner should be further communicating with the Congressman about the error at the FPU .

Since the FPU got it wrong, it's possible for an ILS human with the Congressman's office to communicate further with the FPU (not you, not the USCitizen Petitioner, only the ILS human) and bring this matter to the FPU's attention once again.

It's on yer USCitizen Petitioner to write the request for the ILS human, so if I was in your exact shoes, I'd be practicing with her for writing the request for the ILS human, at this moment, then sending it off soonish.

You'll have some problem with time and timing because of the Christmas holiday, to get any action or subsequent response, but

you have one inroad on this. One. If the ILS Human not get engaged quickly and the request to FPU not get in quickly, that casefile is going to get returned to USCIS. Once it's left the IV Unit, there's no telling what will happen - a review at USCIS could occur, or USCIS would let the petition expire, or something else.

Good Luck, GodSpeed.

I know yer asking questions about stuff,
but it's imperative that your USCitizen Petitioner actually engage with the Immigration Liason Staffer (ILS) human at the Congressman's office.

I've written stuff that may be new to you - I ask you forward the link to this post to your USCitizen Petitioner, and have her read what I've written - you are going to miss things with translation and waste time.

Time wasting, even an hour, could kill all given the holiday schedule.

A congressman cannot order the FPU to do anything. Congress is in the Legislative branch of our govt while the State Dept is in the Executive branch.....remember, no one in one branch of govt can tell the other what to do.


I did not suggest 'an order'.


I suggested 'something else'.

Yup, need an Immigration Liason Staffer to get this quickly resolved.

He chose to do something else, at the moment.

Perhaps he can choose yet another thing.

Waivers (I-601 and I-212) and Administrative Processes (221g)embassy told to my fiancee congresman that they sent our case to uscis cuz i am married . and this not true. so what should i do?

When the embassy returns K1's they go through NVC first and then back to USCIS, so maybe you can send NVC copies of the same things just in case the embassy has already returned them via NVC. Petitioner needs to call DOS also and inform them. If there is anyway to speak to someone 
from the fraud investigation unit I would inquire through the congressman.


I am assuming the casefile is still at the IV Unit, not returned back yet, even though it may be pegged to be returned.

With that said, is best to have the PETITIONER, the USCitizen, engage the Immigration Liason Staffer in a Congressman's office, now. The holiday is gonna play havoc on any real work done, at this level, however.

An ILS Human can check in with the IV UNIT about this stuff, and if done properly (by the ILS Human) the FPU will revisit the entire case.

I find I'm being repetitive here. Tempus Fugit.

Waivers (I-601 and I-212) and Administrative Processes (221g)embassy told to my fiancee congresman that they sent our case to uscis cuz i am married . and this not true. so what should i do?

that i my fiance answers
I called USCIS and talk to an officer saygon, he will be putting in a service request to the USCIS California office, he said what will happen is they will pull the file and review at, then I should receive a reply from them by the 6th of January if I do not receive anything by the 6th I will call them back.

they will be able to relate any information,

that the USCIS has on the case.

I called dos 1st, they referred me to the uscis office and told me to call. I also have to use our USCIS receipt # WACXXXXXXXXXX not our # from the embassy receipt.

Congressmans office has nothing to do with it, thats y I called USCIS. They are pouting in a service request,  what she can do more?








Waste of time, all of the above.

Yer USCitizen Petitioner should have engaged the Immigration Liason Staffer at a Congressman's office, instead.

Is quite possible the 'time window' to get this fixed at the IV Unit has passed. Won't know for certain till the ILS Human is engaged.

ya, my learning was a bit different ..

a congressman has a human on their staff, co-opted for immigration matters.
This human is called an Immigration Liason Staffer,
and

interacts with Congressional Liason Staffers at
--USCIS
--NVC
--IV Units worldwide, if they are big enough to have one and
--DoS FPU

so, it's -
work in a congressman's office? Yer an Immigration Liason Staffer, as you liase with immigration offices or
work elsewhere? Yer a Congressional Liason Staffer, as you liase with Congressional aides who are doing the immigration liason work back at the Congressman's Office.


That's how I learned it, ages past.

if you are still in Italy, I suggest you go in the US Consulate in Naples, on an American Citizen Services Appointment, and talk with a Vice-Consul about this. The Vice-Consuls there also handle immigrant visa interviews, so they can look at some stuff on your beloved, and see what the exact situation is.

Waivers (I-601 and I-212) and Administrative Processes (221g)Why Sending Case Back to NVC // New Delhi (India) K1 Visa - I-129F // 2012
ya, sorry, Boiler is right.

In essence, they were looking for a reason to deny you based on :
1. what was in the casefile
2. what they found from the FBI check
3. what they deemed missing from the casefile

so, the question asked, the immediate interruption when the answer was given,

nails that box shut.

You'll have to ask yer petitioner to be patient, and have some further guidance on how to properly respond to a NOIR/D letter.

Waivers (I-601 and I-212) and Administrative Processes (221g)Denied - Admin Review because of prior K1 petition
IMO, the stuff you wrote up here in your topic,
could be morphed into a letter of attestation,
then submitted into the IV Unit.

However, I think this letter of attestation should have been filed with the I-129F submittal, ages past.

It is true - you can talk with a human at the IV Unit in Manila. Will you get an actual Vice-Consul, one of the officers that handles immigrant visa casefiles? Hard to say, but IMO it's worth it for you to try, make the phone call (or multiple calls) and see what can be done on that end (that end = IV Unit).

Is a good idea to get yer Immigration Liason Staffer (ILS) human involved at yer congressman's office - I read you've done that today, so if'n you presented the facts to the ILS Human™, is possible those facts get in front of a Vice-Consul, as well. Very similar to what a letter of attestation would accomplish.
