A Silly Queston but one has to prepare for the worst
- Thread starter ddagsyn
- Start date
Well this is not a silly question. In fact, it is a valid question and extremely good question. Nice of you to be bold enough and ask this question.
CLosing of bank accounts, investment accounts, credit card accounts, utilities and such other accounts can be done via the web.
As far as all the items in the apt you can have your friends sell them off. If you have a house to sell, appoint an agent over the web and have that person do all the dealings on your behalf.
In my case since my elder brother lives about 15 minutes from my house, I will end up giving to him whatever he wants and gift rest to my friends!

As kdivekar said - this is hardly a silly question. I must admit, with my interview date coming up, I find myself thinking the same thing on occassion. If things do not work out, the best I can do is close all financial accounts over the web/phone and get my friends to clear up my house.
Hopefully it will not come to that!
Good luck!

Take it easy or Donate to rajiv Khanna
Take it easy Ladies and Gentlemen:
I know these questions come up in everybody's mind before leaving US for the interview. But with a success rate of about 99.99% in having a successful CP interview, an individual is really having a hard time(luck-I hate to use) to fall in the 0.01 category.
If you are hinding important info or have done some bank/credit card fraud or are a part of the terrorist organization or more likely be a health risk to US, then don't leave US, if you are already here.
Rajiv Khanna is doing an exemplary job in supporting this forum. May be one can donate his/her property to Rajiv Khanna in support of this wonderful forum, if s/he does fall in the 0.01 category.
Thanks.

My 2 cents....
Definitions:
CP is rejected: The immigration officer has found any one of the following
1. Terrorism (Wanted criminal, known terrorist, possible terrorist etc)
2. Medical grounds (HIV +, Acute TB, communicable disease etc)
3. Fraud (possible misinterpretation of facts, skewing the facts, malignant intent, intent of falsification to gain entry to US either now or in any previous instance)
Consequence:
Case 1: Your existing VISAs if any will be cancelled and you are denied entry into US for pemanently with possible arrest through extradiction.
Case 2: Your existing VISAs if any will be cancelled and you are denied entry into US for 10 years/pemanently.
Case 3: Your existing VISAs if any may or may not be cancelled and you may be allowed entry/denied entry into US for 3/5/10 years.
So, if you fall under case 1, don't know who could help you.
If you fall under case 2, God/doctors could possibly help you.
If you fall under case 3, God/Lawyers could possibly help you.
In case 2 & 3 with denied entry, you could do most of your stuff (like closing your bank a/c, terminating the lease) either through phone or though friends.
The easiest alternative that I know of is to give 'POWER OF ATTORNEY' to your MOST TRUSTED friend/relative and asking them to take care of the things.
Hope this helps.
Cheers,
Ganesh.

I have opted for CP at Mumbai and did some good amount of research on this subject. It seems the Consulate officers do NOT have discritionary powers to reject employment based GC unless they find grounds like terrorism, fraud or medical reasons. At the most they can ask for additional documentation before approving the GC. While the INS officers processing AOS (485) applications have the disctitionary powers to rject the 485 without any such particular reasons.
Have you guys come across any rejections of CP cases for reasons other than terrorism, fraud or medical gronds ?

Discretionary powers
Green Card process (either CP or AOS route) is itself a non discretionary process. No consular officer can deny you an immigrant visa/status just on his/her discretion either in US Embassy/consulate or here in US.
So if you have not done any fraud, or part of an terrorist organization or medically unfit to be in US or mis-represented any information about yourself and you have all required docs then you WILL get immigrant visa/status.
Thanks.

Both AOS and CP has the same rule for the Immigration officer -- No Discritionary power!! The only difference between AOS & CP, is that in AOS you could afford a lawyer to fight for you case as you are still in US (even if the rejection was for terrorism/medical/fraud). But in the case of CP, there is no way you could re appeal the decision.
