Howdy: I hope someone can help me. I have spent hours looking for an old thread that had info on the name and phone number of a nice lady...Colombiana...at the US consulate in Bogota. I read it about 4 weeks ago, and it must have been in a thread on fiance visas, etc. since I was mining these forums for info on the fiance interview.
Well, I have been to Bogota for my lady's interview, and she was approved. When the visa arrived at her home 4 working days later, she enthusiastically opened the wrong envelope. Yep...bless her heart...she opened the one that is supposed to be opened only by Immigration on her arrival in the US. Naturally, when she realized her mistake, she was heartbroken. I offered to help by trying to find the above referenced name/phone number so I could call to get advice on how to repair the damage. Except...I CAN"T FIND IT! HELP!
I would truly be grateful if someone could help me find this info...or, even relate what may have happened in previous incidents of this nature.
Thanks....Regards -Rick

This is one of the reasons I think the old system where you had to come back for the visa the next day was better. You could see the envelope and they explicitly told you not to open it. Disclaimer: any comment I make is inane and is not to be taken seriously, and is so patently ridiculous that no one should take it seriously, even as an insult. 0 funny, 0 helpful. |
