This is the translation on behalf of Jihane 418 from her post in French.
This post is to explain my situation with the file for my immigration to the US (Marriage Visa K3). I hope that you’ll be able to answer all of the questions I ask myself.
First, my husband and I requested a K3 visa by filing the following applications:
• I129F approved after 3 months, expiration date: July 2007,
• I130 approved after 3 months.
Then, I received a letter for a K1 visa interview that I attributed to a typo, a detail which I didn’t consider important.
I went to the interview, finding out that even at the consulate, the same error showed up (K1 instead of K3), prompting the consulate official to ask me such questions as to where and how long I had known my fiancé.
To prove that we were married, I showed him our marriage certificate.
The official asked me to come back the following morning to get my passport back with a K3 visa valid for 2 years.
2 days later, the consulate called to ask me to come back because of an error in the processing my file.
That led to the cancelling of my visa (without prejudice).
After all that, my husband contacted USCIS to obtain some explanations. We found out that we had to fill out an I824 as mentioned in the approval receipt for the I130 without any explanation about how the error was made.
Would you please answer the following questions if possible?
• Could I obtain a clearer and more detailed of my case?
• Is the I824 mandatory in my case?
• About how long for this process?
• Is the I129F still valid considering the expiration of the time limit?
Hoping to get a favorable answer, I thank you for your help.
Sincerely.
