In reply to the discussion: The NVC rejected my marriage certification. My wife's Green Card is dead [View all]Tadpole Raisin
(972 posts)80. So sorry - This is inexcusable!
Every Chinese person I have ever interacted with in my job and life has been kind, personable, and generous to a fault.
I do not understand this but I guess I shouldnt be surprised. My heart aches that people can and continue to be so cruel.
I wish you and your wife the best!
