Immigration Forum / USA Marriage Base / August 2008130 approved after long security clearance
It's been ages since I've posted as there was no news to report. Quick refresher, my husband's last name is Atta which is not one you want to have in today's world. But for anyone asking the question "how long does an IBIS hit take to clear?" our answer is 2.5-3 years.... but by God, we've cleared it. I received my official approval letter yesterday that we are being transferred to the NVC. So here's our summary I130 filed NSC - May 14, 2002 File sent to Washington DC for Security Checks - October 2002 K3 Filed - October 20, 2003 (it's still pending a security clearance in DC) 2003 - waiting on security clearance 2004 - waiting on security clearance February 2005 - Hired new attorney, drafted initial letter threatening mandamus April 2005 - File suddenly became active again October 2005 - File transferred to KC, Marriage interview (RFE for not having the marriage certificate with the date showing the state received it. Husband has that one, I have the duplicate given to us the day we were married). Two days after interview - Copy of marriage certificate delivered to KC district office. January 4, 2006 - Approval letter received in the mail saying it's being forwarded to NVC I hope the remaining hurdles aren't quite as big as this one was...and that future security clearances won't take this long. We're just thrilled the wheels are in motion again. Tonya  SignatureT Atta > It's been ages since I've posted as there was no news to report.

But lets not talk about my case where US based DHS is being driven by their overseas offices in China to kiss the a.s of the Chinese government and my client is a pawn in the middle -- again, don't get me started -- SignatureCertified Specialist Immigration & Nat. Law Cal. Bar Board of Legal Specialization > Hi Tonya: > [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > of the Chinese government and my client is a pawn in the middle -- > again, don't get me started -- I believe I"ve utterred that phrase a million times over the past four years. Everytime someone would ask me how things were going, how the letter writing was going, how the inquiries from my Senators and Representatives were going... And every time I'd talk to the one Senator that was able to tell me, on repeated occassions, that the case was still in Washington DC for "a perceived threat to national security and would remain there indefinitely". Knowing that following 9/11 and a six week investigation by the FBI (that we fully cooperated with) and were questioned, polygraphed, followed, searched and ultimately declared not to have had anything to do with the attacks or terrorism.... Yeah... don't get me started either. :) SignatureT Atta > I believe I"ve utterred that phrase a million times over the past four > years.

Eh, let's be positive: you've cleared it! yay! :D Elaine :) SignatureHelp Find Jason! Missing since June, 2001.

Yeah... don't get me started either. :) Testimony elicited by the GOVERNMENT about the legal system the UNITED STATES government wants to sent my client back to: The police investigate pursuant to their law and procedures, refer to prosecutor for review who then refers to judge for sentencing. I kid you not. The only thing I can say is that at least there is no police testilying in this case. BTW, I just watched the DVD of 1966's "Best Picture" "A Man For All Seasons." Sir Thomas is respected, revered and remembered for his principled stand -- but he DID lose his head. SignatureCertified Specialist Immigration & Nat. Law Cal. Bar Board of Legal Specialization I hope you get this, I was wondering if you can forward the lawyer you hired for this case I am onthe same boat with my husband. thanx sarah >It's been ages since I've posted as there was no news to report.
