Success story: A terminated case is reinstated and visa issued, on Citizen Pinoy this Sunday

After Nanay Pilar (center) petitioned her son, Joseph (left) in 2007, it took some 11 years until his F-2B petition became current in 2018. His embassy interview was scheduled in April 2019, but Joseph was in Zurich, Switzerland for work and he asked to have his interview rescheduled. Unfortunately, the embassy sent a termination letter, based on Joseph’s supposed failure to contact them within a year. Joseph consulted with Atty. Gurfinkel (right), who got the case reinstated and visa issued in record time.

JOSEPH was petitioned by his mother in 2007 and waited 12 long years for his Nanay Pilar’s petition to become current. Unfortunately, Joseph was in Zurich, Switzerland for work and was unable to attend his embassy interview in April 2019.

Despite Joseph’s attempt to contact the National Visa Center to reschedule his interview date, he received a termination letter, where the Embassy said Joseph failed to contact them within the allotted one-year period, and his file had now been destroyed.

Leading U.S. Immigration Attorney Michael J. Gurfinkel (right) was able to reinstate Joseph’s (left) terminated case, on a brand-new episode of Citizen Pinoy.

Joseph consulted with the Law Offices of Michael Gurfinkel to get his case back on track. After writing to the Embassy, arguing for Joseph’s eligibility, Atty. Gurfinkel convinced the Embassy to reinstate the case. Joseph’s new interview was scheduled in March 2022 and Joseph’s visa was issued, to the joy of Nanay Pilar who was finally reunited with her son after such a long time.
