Visa officers aren’t racist — they’re just enforcing the law https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2019/02/22/visa-officers-arent-racist-theyre-just-enforcing-law/?utm_term=.daecccc7524d Not sure he's being straight up here: Note here, it seems he gets to determine what the facts are, maybe fill in some, too:

We had a disaster in Guangzhou. our visa was denied by Consular Officer. My wife was in the US for 13 yrs, we are married 6. with attorney help we filed 601a and I did previous i130, 864 and DS 260. all approved. Lawyer said no problem, we always get visa, only a couple of relationship questions. we were ambushed by CO, not a nice guy. he was aggressive in questions, zeroing in on entry to US issues. My wife was nervous and intimidated. Slammed -denied without any written or verbal explanation. no name of CO, no supervisor review. She is now stranded in China, me back in US alone. I'm dying w/o her. Warning DO NOT leave US for consular interview. be 110% certain. get second legal opinions. this is clearly my lawyers fault. the interview prep mentioned none of these possibilities. I would give up the green card we don't have to get her back. The GC is not necessary to be comfortable in US, especially if older. there are many incompetent lawyers, many turn over work to ignorant paralegals. I hope and expect to get 601 prepared & approved, but I got to figure out exactly where the wheels came off this time. I read the processing times run 9 months. consider your risks. they will deny very easily, w/o compassion or legal representation. tom
