You may want to speak with a lawyer if you are thinking about filing a civil suit. Have all your documents that prove the incompetence with you, particularly the letter/checklist you got when they returned your sponsorship application which you said only missed the postal code.

Has the misrepresentation case against your husband been resolved? Are you sure he is not inadmissible? These are some things you may want to fix too while you launch your complaint.

My husband applied for a visitors visa to go to his step sons wedding and he received a misrepresentation letter saying that they weren't satisfied that he wasn't honest about being denied a visa to the states and that he was never charged with a crime. We sent a response immediately explaining the misrepresentation. What is the typical wait time for a response. We live in Jamaica and requested a 3 week visit for him. He does have 1 charge on his record in the u s in 2011. He was deported in 2012 back to Jamaica. In the reponse email we explained the when where and why of the situation. We are not sure what to expect. Time is of the essence as my son is getting married in august..Any suggestions would be appreciated

It was returned after 8 months saying that it was missing info on 5406..the missing info was po boxes for his 2 sons and an email for his elderly mother who doesn't use email ....this is something that could have been solved with a simple email ..so because of this we have to start to wait time all over again ...im mentally exhausted with these people ...there is no accountability and im tired of it ...

That sucks - sorry for your experience.

I would recommend that you speak with the lawyer who pays for this forum (contact info in top left hand corner of each page). I'm pretty sure he has experience in this area.

Past lawsuits that I'm aware of have resulted in fees being refunded but nothing in the area of punitive damages. So you may want to consider that before moving forward with any legal action. The time and expense may not be worth it. Anyway, speak to a lawyer experience in this area. You can also try looking up past similar lawsuits to see the results.

Good luck with your application.

IMO - that's the best way to do it. I think when it's your own application you put in an especially high level of care to make sure no fields are left blank / no information is missing.

Even I questioned myself. I mean I looked at every single box, every signature every box that didnt need filled I wrote NA snd I did this many times before submitted. Its very easy to make a mistake.

I think you can relax a little. It's a very long process. Good to check many times before you send in the application. But once it's with them, there are only a few steps that you need to take action. So try not to get too stressed out specially at the beginning.
