Hi all!
I have very complicated case and will appreciate if you take time to read and advise!
I have lived and studied in the States from 2009 to 2013 on F-1 student visa. Since then haven't been to US. Had never any problems while entering and leaving the country. On January 2013 I flew to my home country- Tajikistan to visit and renew my F-1 visa, but was denied under section 214b. Was young and stupid I guess that left my studies and didn't go to US again.
Last year I won green card boom! What is more interesting that my wife also won a green card, that means we both were selected for DV visa 2017 separately!!!
We decided to go with my case as family since I was scheduled for interview before my wife. So we had our interview on March 11th 2017. Me my wife and my 8 months daughter. CO said we can't issue a visa right now because you're on Administrative Processing. But unfortunately a week later I received email of denial under section 212(a)(6)(c)(i). My wife and daughter also got denied since I was the principal.
No worries i said to myself and tried with my wife's case. Interview was on July 11th 2017.
The Consular Officer was changed with got me upset because the other CO knew my case and situation. The new CO was shocked that we both won. Again this time i was denied, but good part is my wife and daughter got their visas. CO gave me a denial letter under section 214b and said you have some sort of 'block' from DHS under your name, so sort it out and come back before Sept 29 2017.
I am so confused now. What to do? How to check what that block from DHS mean? How to run a check name from them and find out what the problem is?
One more thing is two Consular Officers said two different things about Visa Waiver, one said you're eligible and other said you're not.
I am so stressed and confused, anyone familiar with such a case? Any suggestions? Any good immigration lawyers can solve the issue?
Your help is much appreciated!
