MANDAMUS

Delay after 221g Notice Crewman Visa

  • PROBLEM

Client filed a C1D crewmember visa renewal on December 10, 2021 at the US embassy in the Philippines and was given 221g. Although she completed and submitted the form DS 5535 as required by the embassy, her application remained under review. Every two weeks, the client sent an email to the embassy to ask for updates, but she always received an auto-generated response that her case is currently undergoing Administrative Processing. Her case stopped updating on February 10, 2022. This visa was important to her because she needed to work on cruises for income.

  • SOLUTIONS
The client was anxiously waiting for the visa decision and was not able to go back to work for over eight months. That’s when she decided to contact our firm in August 2022. She authorized us to file a mandamus lawsuit in late 2022, and she was able to obtain the visa in early March 2023.

  • PROBLEM

Client filed fiancé petition 2/24/2020. His attorney referred him to us.
