221G - blue letter
Today I attended an interview that was pretty harsch. I have had b1b2 and c1d1 visas for like over 25 years always have been respectful of ita uses and have no criminal record. I entered the room when called by officer and said : Hello , good morning. He didnt even reply and aak me to sit. There were 4 chairs, I sat. He then asked to ait on a blue chair and get closer, I did so, then he yelled more closer to get fingerprints, There was no more space the chair was against the table... Firat question was : When was your appointment? I said : today ( I mean when else? He can aee that on the computer, I had no other date.) Then he asked me for employment sponsors. I said, I do not require but I do have job offers. He asked who said so? I said my attorbey and that is exactly what EB2 NIW is for. Then he accused me of insisting and trying to move interview dates ahead thru ustraveldocs.com ( I just sent an inquiry on whether there was an estimate for interview dates so I could eprk around my schedulein anticipation) and they replied it was I as applicant responsible to set the appointment (contrary to NVC and attorney instructions) .I then sent inquiries asking to confirm that, because I did not want to miss the chance to get the appointment if it was my responsibility ( knowing visa bulletin dates do matter) . The officer brought a lady from another office and she asked me a couple questions to which I felt more comfortable woth and I explained in detail. I finished saying that if I misinterpreted myself ,that I was sorry and I did not mean to. She said they would investogate my case based on my answers because they suspect me of fraud and lying (she was much more polite though) . curiously she returned my passports and said I could travel ( I said I had travel thru US next week bound to Asia for work) . So they suspect me of fraud but they let me use the visas and travel? I was baffled. Later after interview I told my experience to a friend who asked me if it was cosul from booth number X and I was shocked. Iasked how did you know? she said he has complaints from other applicants for being like that.
He also put words in my mouth and twisted my job offer letters I presented.
Any thoughts how long a 221G of this sort might last? I honestly give up , think it will be refuses if the same officer does the AP, regardless he will write stuff on my file that is not true. There is more details I left out but, overall thats the major point.

@Elias Maica I hope so... the eternal wait just to fet an appointment and now this additional wait is frustrating. one thing is EB2 interviews are not just a check the box item like attorneys make it sound.

woww si que estuvo intensa tu entrevista...espero no me toque un consul asi 🙏 yo ya casi tengo la mia. Entonces no tienes respuesta de si fuiste aprobado? o ya solo estas esperando tu pasaporte impreso con tu GC?

@DD San 221G es administrative processing, me dijeron que me investigarian... que espere instrucciones.

@enrique G ya recibiste respuesta?? otra pregunta todo el proceso lo hiciste con abogados?
enrique GMar 20, 2024
@DD San aun no, segun leo puede tardar semanas o meses... si todo lo hice con abogado. Pero en mi caso senti quw no sirven sino nada mas para decirte que papeles son y que espacios llenar... hice consultas con otros y llegue a conclusion que el tener abogado y aun cuando el caso es solido y uno tiene un record limpio con buen historial de visas, no hace diferencia alguna si el consul tiene predisposicion de buscar algo que no es cierto o no va encontrar.

@enrique G Que mal por el consul que te tocó. Espero que ya pronto puedas emigrar a USA. La espera y el estres por lo que pasa uno es largo. Saludos y pues seguimos en contacto. Yo ya casi tengo mi cita tambien.
