Default diversity visa and derivatives status part II

Hi All,


We just resent all the documents to the embassy as advised previously
(printed pictures/joint bills/emails and a nice letter requesting for an
update) .

We have some tiny bit questions remaining :
+ What would be the worst case scenario ? Wife denied ? Conditional status
to the wife ? Myself denied under the ground we could not proof the strength
of our relationship ?
+ Shall we expect another grilling interview ? I am not going to mention the
questions asked during the interview but I would say sometimes it verged to
the indecent ?
+ If you were me would you be bothered in sending comments about this whole
process directly to the Embassador

For your convience I included the original post at the bottom of this one.

Best Regards,

>Hi All,

Myself and my spouse went to a Visa interview to the US embassy in January
and was handed the form 221(g) , it stated we had to wait for the medical
result(took place one day before the visa interview) and we needed to
provide proof of relationship.

I am puzzled by the whole thing since we got married in March and the
lottery winner announcement was sent in June(i.e. we got married in March ,
I actually completely forgot I applied for the greencard lottery_hehehe).

Anyway I diligently sent:
+ CD of pictures of us before the interview took place
+ copy of mobile phone bills (being a contractor we mainly communicate via
phone- I come back in the UK on the week end/ it is a pretty tough
situation for us but the financial gains will free us from working soon)
+ unfortunately I could not send emails correspondance because the site
which stored all the emails was unreachable from the UK

We are now in February-March and I have not heard anything from the US
embassy of London in terms of the case status and if they received all the
documents (sent through courrier).

My questions are the following:
+ I managed to get the email correspondances records , should I bother to
send them ? will it delay the case further ?
+ who should I contact to get an update on the case ?
+ Usually how long does it take to process this sort of application (US
greencard lottery winners and derivatives status) ?
+ What would be the worst case scenario ? Wife denied ? Conditional status
to the wife ? Myself denied under the ground we could not proof the strength
of our relationship ?
+ Shall we expect another grilling interview ? I am not going to mention the
questions asked during the interview but I would say sometimes it verged to
the indecent ?
+ If you were me would you be bothered in sending comments about this whole
process directly to the Embassador

My comments about this whole visa process is , the US embassy of London are
not making the job of their staff very easy , they could have setup a site
where you just type your case ID to check the status - I am sure not many
people would mind an increase in the visa processing to finance such a
system.
