IR-1 visa interview at the US Embassy in Thailand - Red card

- 22.05


Although the procedure of a US visa is considered reasonable, at the end of the process there is a visa interview. The following information is aimed at an interview at the Consular Department of the US Embassy in Bangkok, Thailand.

Entry procedures for US citizens' spouses and fiancées are time-consuming and somewhat complicated. The examination of this process is a US visa interview conducted by the US Embassy or consular office of the US Consulate General.

As the US immigration law process is over, the time has come for Thai American couple to consider US visa interviews. Many Thai applicants are concerned about the US visa interview. Because they are usually under the false impression that it is the consular office to intimidate the applicant. This is simply not true. The US consular office is responsible for reviewing the visa application submitted to the consular office. In many cases this is simply the exercise of due diligence to ensure that the couple is indeed a good relationship and that there is no legal basis for tort. It is said that if the applicant attempts to deceive or deceive the consular officials, the results of such attempts may be very harmful. Personnel in the US consulate are trained to confirm differences in US visa applications and are also given the task of knowing the applicant's past truth in case of visa issuance. Therefore, in the situation where an applicable visa application attempt is being made, the possibility that the application is placed in administrative processing for investigation by the anti-fraud department is quite high. Although the interview of the officers of the fraud prevention division was conducted with courtesy, it is conceivable that the consular officer is receiving an intestinal examination in order to judge the fact of the incident. Fortunately, in applications where fraud is not an issue, the applicant's interview will definitely be stress free.

At the end of the visa interview, the applicant will be presented with one of two documents. If the consular officer feels more information is needed, a rejection letter of 221 (g) will be issued. This document says that Visa is denied under US immigration and the authority of Article 221 (g) of the Nationality Act. Under this provision, the consular officer may refuse to grant a visa until further documentation is provided. This documentary deficit remedy depends on the evidence requested.

If the visa application is approved under the current administrative procedures of the US Embassy residing in Bangkok, the applicant's passport will be retained and the consular officer hands the "red card" to the applicant. This is a small index card that records the date and time you can receive your visa. Since the ink used to stamp the index card is red, it is considered a "red card".

For those advocating a US attorney licensed in Bangkok, the current embassy policy is that the lawyer can pick up the applicant's passport if it can not get the applicant's passport . Businesses not licensed as "visa companies, visa agents, legal counselors, immigration consultants" shall correspond to the embassy in lieu of family visa applicants if they do not have permission of law enforcement Can not be in the United States.
