Guest alex062872 Posted March 21, 2003 Report Share Posted March 21, 2003 Hi, gongfuman (CR1) We are the same situation. If you GZ resubmitted on Oct, 2002, then it should submit it AGAIN. The timeline for GZ is 90 days. If they didn't got a response from DOS in 90 days, they should submit the name again. That is my understanding. Link to comment
tonado Posted March 21, 2003 Author Report Share Posted March 21, 2003 alex062872, Are you just pending or ON-Hold? Link to comment
gongfuman Posted March 21, 2003 Report Share Posted March 21, 2003 Believe me I've tried for several months to get them to resubmit our case again, but CA said they wouldn't ask gz to resubmit our case because progress was being made on it and that it wouldn't do any good to resubmit. From what I understand having your case resubmitted only helps if your case is lost. Maybe when CA told me they wouldn't have our case resumbitted we we're already on hold and that's why they said it wouldn't do any good. Who knows? Regardless, they're not going to resubmit now that we're on hold. We've just got to wait it out and hope it doesn't take too long. Link to comment
Guest alex062872 Posted March 21, 2003 Report Share Posted March 21, 2003 ttlee_99, my case is pending. I called DOS several times, got the same answer "not clear yet", no one mentioned "on hold". Who really knows. For those "on hold" cases, don't worry that much. Probably the agencies spare their agents to deal with "on hold" cases only, then you may have better piority. Link to comment
Lurker Posted March 21, 2003 Report Share Posted March 21, 2003 Probably the agencies spare their agents to deal with "on hold" cases only, then you may have better piority.I'm afraid there's zero evidence of that. Link to comment
SBS Posted March 23, 2003 Report Share Posted March 23, 2003 May the coming week will bring us some good news stay strong all on hold friends! I miss my husband more than ever but i will always try to stay strong for him and us... Link to comment
doggie Posted March 25, 2003 Report Share Posted March 25, 2003 Well now we have the dreaded "hold letter". Three days after the DOS line assured me that we were not onl hold only pending. I even asked twice to be sure. Hard to think about another delay and more waiting but here we are. Have to say with such a common name a name hit would almost seem likely and the way things are going unavoidable. Nov 2001 ApplicationSept 2002 InterviewMarch 2003 Screwed again Assistant Secretary Maura Harty has asked us to respond to your e-mail ofMarch 23 requesting information about the fianc¨¦e visa application of xxxzzzz. Let me assure you that we fully understand that delays in visaissuance are seriously complicating the lives of applicants and of those whoare waiting for their arrival. Ms. xxxxx case is currently pending completion of required security-related vetting through an interagency clearance process. Changes to this process made in July 2002, together with communications problems, computer issues, and vastly increased work volumes, have had the effect of delaying many clearances. We are working with the relevant agencies to complete all clearancerequests. We are also working with technical experts here in Washington in an attempt to find new ways to expedite the clearance process. Unfortunately, your fianc¨¦e's clearance will not be processed as quickly asmost others are. A government agency has placed a hold on the process. We are unable to predict when the hold will be lifted, but we expect that asignificant amount of time may be required to resolve this issue. When Ms.xxxx's clearance process is concluded, the Consulate will notify her. I regret that our reply could not be more favorable. Sincerely, Kathryn CabralChiefPublic Inquiries DivisionVisa Services Link to comment
SBS Posted March 25, 2003 Report Share Posted March 25, 2003 I am really sorry to read it doggie. it seems on hold cases keeps adding. there is still no good news or more lights in this dark hole...But my husband spoke to Andrew Simpkin and he said did some on hold cases were cleared. So we are looking forward to seeing our memebers' cases here get cleared too sooner.. Link to comment
