Good luck, my wife and her two kids stayed at Mr. Xie's, last month. He was very helpful and even met us at 11:30 pm when we arrived in GZ. We had a minor setback at the Consulate, but everything was straightened out before we left. Now our whole family just spent our first Christmas together. Best of luck to you.

I was just in GZ, last month with my wife and her two children. The childrens visa were denied because of similar reasons you were given. The kids told us the VO never even looked at any paperwork. I went back to the Consulate that very afternoon and demanded to speak with a supervisor. I had the proof they wanted but never looked at. Bottom line I got the VO to recind his original denial and approve the childrens visas the same day. Just went there and stated my case. If you are still in GZ, just go back to the Consulate, be firm and get your particular situation straightened out. I wrote quite a story of our experience on 11/28/05 here on cfl. Good luck and be assertive at the Consulate. Unlike the interview there you will be able to state your case. When they tell you they only answer visa denial questions be firm and say you want to speak to the supervisor ASAP. Good luck...

Should be quite a reunion, congratulations and best of luck to both of you..

Have you tried a Congressional Inquiry yet??? Helped me out a couple of years ago.. Good Luck....

See now that was not so bad, was it?? Anyway, CONGRATULATIONS now the real fun begins!!! Best of luck and happiness to both of you...

What are you doing here?? You should be changing the toilet seat or something??????

CONGRATULATIONS!!! If you get it back quickly you could be looking at a Mid to late March, P-4. Or possibly even a bit earlier!! Good luck, hang in there..

bobmal99 P-3-6/23/05 P-4-9/29/05 INTERVIEW-11/21/05, VISA'S GRANTED AFTER SOME MINOR PROBLEMS!!!

We got P-3 for our children 6/23/05, P-4, 9/29/05. Interview 11/21/05. So that makes it about 5 months which I believe is pretty normal. Good Luck!!!

So in three years the 129f fee has gone from $90 to $170, not to mention all the other documents need to be filed by Immigrants.. Then why do we have to pay a fee to call and get information about ongoing cases??? Way back when we were told the fee's were increasing so they could hire more people and make waiting times much shorter. So how has that worked out for everyone???

Maybe an official Congressional Inquiry, as to why American Citizens are being denied entrance to visa interviews with their children might put the Consulate on NOTICE, and make them more accountable in the future???

CONGRATULATIONS!!! Everyone has A 7:15 AM appointment, then the rush is on, best of luck for your future...

Thanks everyone, Here is one of the many reasons GZ gave for the original denial. This is verbatim. Can anyone figure this out. Provide a notorazied statement from your birth parent, either your petitioner or your petitioners spouse, stating that he/she has never married your other birth parent. If he/she abandonded your family include year of abandonment.

Just make sure she has your Passport and let the VO know she has it. Just came back from GZ, the weather was cool in the 50's. If there are any problems don't be afraid to go upstairs and talk to someone at the Consulate, believe me I know.. Best of luck!!!!

Ooops!!!!
