Apeksha just on the lighter side of this all, I think tht the guy interviewing got scared at the amount of paperwork u sent thru ur mom !! As soon as he wud've taken a look at invitation letters in both english n native language, perhaps he told himself tht smartness was in giving ur mom a visa immediately, so tht he wont' have to c another set of papers added to the already existing set, in ur mom's second visa trail )))

I've heard tht in somecases the consulate guys c not a single paper, nor ask a single qn and issue a visa....and on the otherside also do the same and reject a visa. Hard to explain wht is gng on !!
