Help me feel better please.

I cant go through this again. I am in pain... Im tired of this happening...

3 years ago we went to the US consulate to renew our visa like we did every year. Well, the officer denied it and banned my parents. She said my sister and i could go back if we wanted, so we had hope. Finally my parents decided for my sister and i to try again. So we made an appointment in the US embassy. I left my house today at 4 am and arrived there at 8. Everything seemed to be going really well.

Then, we got called up for the infamous "interview"... the Officer seemed really nice... She took our passports, our applications. Then she asked my mom for her visa. Our old visa's are still on our passport. They have this HUGE stamp that says "Canceled without prejudice" When the officer saw this, her eyes opened. She checked my and my sister's passport. They also had it. So she scanned it on the computer and our file came up.


She went on reading, and we could tell from her facial expressions that something was wrong. She then turned to us, with a face of pain. She said it wasnt possible. She started saying she was sorry. My sister and i cant get a visa, since my parent's need to have one for my sister and i to apply. Well, the first officer lied. She banned my parents for 5 years (when they were supposed to be 3!) and told my sister and i could apply.


Well to make it all quick we didnt get it. It was denied, again. I am so hurt. I am usually very strong, but i cant take it anymore. It just makes me angry, that there are thousands of illegal immigrants, and US who want to do things right, get punished and blamed, and ridiculed. I am in so much pain, i didnt want to go through this again, but i am and i have to be strong yet again.

I am sorry for writing this, as i dont know who else to go to. Because of what happened 3 years ago, my life was ruined, i am broke because of what happened, and....

I apologize. My psychologist says things get better when you write about them.

I hope you understand me, and help me go thorugh this painful moment of my life, yet again.

I am so sorry Tony. I can't imagine how you must be feeling right now. I don't know if you are a religous person or not, but you will be in my prayers. (If you're not religious just think about it as good thoughts sent your way.) Meanwhile maybe you should reward yourself some how. Do something kind for yourself to pick your spirits up.

Listening to your favorite music can help improve your mood. I know it sounds like a band-aid for a broken leg. But every little bit can help.

Oh Tony... I'm so sorry you have to go through this. I wish I could say something to make you feel better, but I don't know anything about immigration. I feel so bad for you.

Awww, Tony that really stinks.
I can't say I understand any of what's involved, but is it possible to go over her head and speak to a supervisor?

You're in our thoughts, prayers, and hugs.

Tony, so sorry to hear about this happening to you. Do you have something like legal aid that can help with immigration issues. Just remember that everything happens for a reason, find the positive in it and next time maybe it will happen for you.

Dont let it make you sad for long, hope you feel better.

thanks lorabell. I tell him to make of me what he wants, after all, he knows how strong i am.

I should've said something to the first officer who denied us the first time...
"what goes around comes around"

whatever it is she wrote on my profile will never let me get a visa...



LOL red! I once saw in a movie that "Fish can even mend a broken heart... " LOL
