What to do if I have a 221g letter

If your application for immigrant visa has been refused under Section 221(g) will be accompanied by a detailed note.

Under Section 221(g), we are asking for additional information before making a final decision. Often the application is incomplete, or there are additional requirements needed.
When refused under section 221(g), you should provide by DHL courier to us the information and/or documents requested, together with the refusal letter and your passport.

If you submit the information and/or documents within a year of the application, you will not have to pay another application fee. Once we receive the new information, we will review your application and make a final decision in five working days.

Your documents, including your passport will be returned to you by DHL courier at the end of this process, DHL will contact you by phone.
