Re: need serious answer to Serious question,..
You will need it all for AOS anyway..

Re: need serious answer to Serious question,..
Go with the flow you will not win anyway and it was a minor inconvience. The consulate operates under the DOS a separate agency anyway. Save youe energy for other battles such as DMV AOS EAD..etc...

Re: need serious answer to Serious question,..
I could be wrong since it's been awhile since I've looked at the instructions on the I-129f. However, I was under the impression that you had to include w/the I-129f proof that all previous marriages were ended (either in death, annullment, divorce). So I thought that info would have already been requested, which if it wasn't, could be why the overseas Consulate requested a copy of it.
I really wouldn't pursue this line of thought either..I'd save energy and money for the upcoming AOS process and other fees as needed.

Re: need serious answer to Serious question,..
Wayne,
Haven't we been through this before? The I-129f instructions apply to the I-129f petition, which is processed by the USCIS and is over and done before a case reaches a consulate. The I-129f instructions have no bearing on a consular offical's processing of a K3 visa application. Consular officers have full authority to ask for whatever documentation they need to satisfy themselves that a visa applicant meets all of the requirements for the visa.

Re: need serious answer to Serious question,..
sunflower,..
the old instructions for FIANCE require divorce documents since you must prove you can marry in the future,..the K-1 is CONDITIONAL on this,..,.. the NEW instructions for K-3 specifically state MARRIAGE certificate,.. it is conditional on that,..must be presently married,.. I am not looking for a battle with them,.. I simply wish to report this issue,.. to whoever will listen,.. if they need divorce documents for K3,.. then say it in the instructions,.. SIMPLE,.. these people take too much time,.. and are paid too well to be SOOOOO incredibly stupid,.. (or am I the stupid one,..?) a side note,.. this is the USA Embassy,.. in Romania, True,.. BUT they were VERY disrespectful to my wife,.. Why,..? She is ethnic Hungarian in Romania,.. the consulate was Romanian,.. or Romanian ethnicity,.. I could go into details of this meeting,. but I will refrain,.. but this is why I will report this,.. somewhere,... does anyone have an address,.. an email,.. something concrete,..? don't require personal advice/opinions,... thanx,.. another interview is scheduled for this Monday,.. it should be OK,.. divorce documents are in her hands,.. unless,..... they invent something else,..? |
Re: need serious answer to Serious question,..
Jeff,..
you are incorrect,.. read INA chapter 3,.. and get back to me,..? the consulate can not request ANYTHING,.. if that were true,... there would be sexual favors,.. scandals,.. bribes,.. it is ALL written,.. section 221,.. INA,.. chapter 3,.. again,..this does not answer my question as to WHERE to report a grievance,.. |
Re: need serious answer to Serious question,..
Perhaps Mr. J. D. Crouch the Ambassador.. would be a starter
then perhaps http://www.firstgov.gov/index.shtml could give you more info |
Re: need serious answer to Serious question,..
Wayne,
Go back and re-read my post. I did not say that the consualte could "request ANYTHING" (the word and the emphasis is yours).

Re: need serious answer to Serious question,..
Thanx, Ray,..
I appreciate your answer greatly,.. again,..THANK YOU,.. I was simply looking for a starting point through here as I have been too busy to search,..and search,.. --------------------- Sorry jeff,.. wrote that quickly while at lunch break,.. simply,.. please read the info,.. the consulate stated this as his authority in asking,.. Ins,.. chapter 3,.. section 221,.." H" ,..I believe,.. READ IT,.. the documents requested must be relevant to the type of visa requested,.. here is a link,.. http://www.theodora.com/ina_96_title_2.html -------------------- Leslie,.. what is your function in replying at all,..? get a lfe,.. and have casual conversation elsewhere,.. I was looking for a serious answer,.. (see the title of this post,.) even though Jeff and I disagree,.. and he is reluctant to read,.. I appreciate something more to the subject,.. --------------------------- Oh,.. I was in the military,.. have a college education,.. my 1st wife was from overseas,..I had a fiance after that, but canceled it as the wait was too long after 9/11,.. this is my 2nd wife from overseas,.. my best friend is Russian,.. I am helping him with his citizenship,.. getting his wife here,.. I have many international friends,.. and if they have an issue with uscis, they all look to me as a lawyer,.. (no,.I am not a lawyer,..but I did stay at a holiday inn express last week,..) many things/questions I see here are simply a matter of paying close attention to detail,..(as my stupid mistake in replying to jeff so quickly,.and incorrectly) I am not ANGRY with the consulate,.. it is a new procedure with an old document,.. many people here are obviously unaware of the new instructions,.. he is only one more person unaware,.. I am simply looking for the proper way to file a formal grievance,.. AFTER my wife arrives,.. ------------------------------ |
