king Posted September 8, 2005 Report Share Posted September 8, 2005 This is a heads up for all of you that might have to deal with the possibility of have your SO's visa application refused and having to provide additional evidence, known as the "overcome" process. As of September 15, 2005, a new "overcome" procedure will be in effect. To submit "overcome" documents the applicant will need to make a telephone appointment, at a cost, to get a time and date to submit the additional evidence. At this time, there has been no more info from the IV unit on this that I am aware of. I do not know yet how far forward the appointments will be set. I will update this thread as the situation develops. Today, I understand 9 American guys were here for their SOs' interviews. All passed. Link to comment

warpedbored Posted September 9, 2005 Report Share Posted September 9, 2005 Thanks King. It sounds like a new tool for them to delay and increase revenue. Let's hope they don't abuse it. I would be very interested in how it all works. Link to comment

tonymasiello Posted September 9, 2005 Report Share Posted September 9, 2005 Hmmm... yet another risk to consider when trying to make travel plans back to the states in advance of the interview... Link to comment
LeeFisher3 Posted September 9, 2005 Report Share Posted September 9, 2005 Who knows we could get lucky and have an instant review process instead of waiting 2 days for a response. Link to comment
HanLi Posted September 15, 2005 Report Share Posted September 15, 2005 Thanks King, this is an important development and worth tracking... Link to comment
turtle Posted September 21, 2005 Report Share Posted September 21, 2005 Sounds like a new ploy to make a few more bucks off us. If the number of overcomes increases, we'll know why... Link to comment
HanLi Posted October 15, 2005 Report Share Posted October 15, 2005 You can dial a toll free Chinese number if you are within CHina. They girl I spoke with had a Hong Kong British accent so I had to adjust my hearing to understand her.157803[/snapback]what is that number? Link to comment
esun41 Posted October 15, 2005 Report Share Posted October 15, 2005 I have followed this procedure and will have the overcome proceedings in a few weeks. I am not going to post any specifics due to suspicious activity on this site recently but the process was relatively painless. Esun41 Link to comment
