In reply to the discussion: The NVC rejected my marriage certification. My wife's Green Card is dead [View all]AZLD4Candidate
(5,570 posts)22. They rejected the marriage certificate from the Chinese Government as "incomplete" and "suspicious"
And as I have been told by two immigration attorneys, the immigration people have a huge anti-Chinese attitude, look them over harder than anyone else, and will deny for any and all reasons.
Nobody has an absolute right to a green card. You would think the US Government wouldn't be in the business of separating Americans from their families.
Your lack of empathy is duly noted.
