I am in hell guys. Hope this does not happen to you. Following is a letter to my senator.
Dear Ellen,
Thank you for your time regarding this matter. The following is a summary of items:
We applied for a Fiance visa in January of 2007. We were approved in May of 2007. My fiance then began to obtain the Criminal background check documentation and medical release forms necessary for the final meeting at the US embassy in Ukraine.
She scheduled said interview on October 2 a full two months after she attempted to set up the interview. She paid an extra fee to expedite the process but I will have to double check to assess the exact nature of this extra fee and please hold back on this aspect until I can confirm.
She finally attended the meeting on October 2. The embassy requested further documentation:
They verbally questioned her about my earnings in 2005.They asked " can he prove this?" They then dropped this demand. They questioned the financial report of a company I own and asked her if I owned it or just worked there. Subsequently I faxed them a note which stated I owned the company.
To the best of my knowledge my attorney supplied them with 2004 and 2006 tax records which they claimed not to have with the packet/application. My comprehensive earnings information contained stock portfolio holdings(bank print outs) in excess of a million dollars. This does not include the book value of the company I own.
They requested an original of her divorce document when the application had a xerox copy.
They denied my "declarative statement " as being out of date. It was done in January 2007 of course.
Their requests on October 2 did not include ANYTHING about deficient proof of our relationship. I was able to follow up their request for more documentation over the phone by clarifying what they needed in a discussion with an embassy worker. He knew the case without me even stating MY NAME, nor MY FIANCE's name, NOR OUR CASE NUMBER. I thought this was very peculiar.
On October 5 we supplied them with the original divorce document, a new declaration, and 2004 /2006 tax forms they said they did not have. They told my fiance it would be 8-14 days.
Three weeks later , October 26, they now informed me out of the blue that they needed proof of our relationship. This was never mentioned before on any correspondence nor telephone conversation between myself or my fiance and the embassy . The original application contained restaurant receipts, phone records, stamped passports to Ukraine, e-mails between us, and a photo of the two of us together. The e-mail simply said we were deferred until they received this proof with no clarification why numerous documents were insufficient nor if NOTHING was present from us in the papplication packet which would indicate that they lost them.
I tried to call them on the phone and they now refuse to answer any questions. I was concerned that the person whom I was talking to did not understand English and asked to speak to an American employee which she replied" You are in America , talk to Americans over there. "
I am concerned that these people have my SS number and that they have knowledge of my extensive wealth. I feel that they are now delaying to specifically target me with extra payments. I leave it up to you to broach this topic as diplomatically as you can.
I was unaware that this could be a problem in India and Phillipines but the existence of it there means it could happen in Ukraine...especially since they know my net worth . To the best of my knowledge we have paid all appropriate fees regarding this application but would gladly pay any "appropriate and legally sanctioned by the United States Government" fees to expedite this unnecesary delay.
Best regards,
Mark Thompson
I am usually not a conspiracy guy but this is getting obvious. Anyone else have any notions.
