It's annoying that those people are visa unit customer rep, not the consulate i need to speak to 240094[/snapback] Ali, I understand why you would want to speak to a person at the Consulate about your case. In reality the only way I've seen anybody actually do that is to attend a US Citizens hour at the Consulate on a Friday afternoon. That possibility is cancelled for this Friday. This only works for US Citizens. A Chinese SO may not attend. May I suggest that you describe your circumstances and need here. In all likelyhood somebody will be able to advise you on the best course of action actually available to address your need. 240105[/snapback] I posted my case under GETTING VISA topic two weeks ago, but didn't get much help there. I am going to recap the case here: My parents passed the interview on Aug.9 but they got denial on the visa on the Aug 9th. My dad was told to have his fingerprint done. I need to know how long will the fingerprint process take and what will be the next step for him. As to my mom, they just hold up her visa. I wonder if i can contact Consulate and let them issue her visa first. I tried calling the paid service call and the email method, but didnt' get much help. I am in New York so i don't think i can attend the american citizen hours on Friday. That's about it, thanks for any advice.

Anyone can tell me how to contact the consulate in GZ. I purchased the pin ( 8 minutes or 12 minutes one) but the call went through the visa unit. I asked for the consulate but those stupid people transfered my call to a recorded message that has all the phone number and different agency. I just need to talk to a live american consulate who can look into my case. Much thanks here

Does anyone has a situation that didn't get the visa after passing the interview? My father passed his interview but when he went pick up his visa, he got denied on it. He got a blue slip and instructed him to take a fingerprint check(10 fingerprint here). After the fingerprint, my father was told to go home and wait for further decision on his visa. Anyone know how long will my father to wait? This is kind of weird. I mean normally people doesn't go through this step after passing the interview. For those who read this topic. Please share you thought here. Anything will be appreciated.

I applied my parents to come to US. They passed their interview in Guangzhou on August 9th and were scheduled to pick up their visa on Aug.11. But when they picked up the visa, they were denied on getting the visa. My father was told to have his finger print. done. They said they will re-evaluate the case and make decision once the finger print is clear by FBI. I am a bit worried now because my father used to live in US and once was mistakenly picked up by police and had his finger print done in the police pricint. My father was discharged few hours later after they found out they picked a wrong guy. But nontheless, his finger print was there still. Do you think he will be able to get his visa after the FBI clear the finger print check. My mother didn't get the visa neither. They told her that her case was hold up because of my father's situation. My question is worse case, can my mother get her visa first without being hold up by my dad's case. I tried to call Guangzhou consulate but the call never went through a right person. Anyone know how to contact the Consulate in Guangzhou. I appreciate any kind of feedback from you. I really need help on this. thanks

thanks. do i also need to attached the 3 yr tax return, w-2 and employment letter as well? Can my parents get the visa right away if they pass the interview and be able to come to america?

I am the petitioner for my parents. They used to live in USA for 5 years in the early 90's. Do i need to get police certificate from New York where they lived? Are the documents required check listed for the interview in P4 same for all the applicants? I called Guangzhou and they told me that it all depends on the P4 instruction. If they state in the P4, then i would need to prepare a new I-864. I am a little bit confused on that. Can anyone clear that for me? thanks

I submitted the original I-864 to NVC and didn't retain a copy of it. The interview date is approaching. Do i need to prepare a new I864 with tax returns and w-2 to Guangzhou on the interview day? My parents had lived in USA for few years in the past. Do they also need to obtain police certificate for that? thanks
