AWFUL (Why can't I rate with zero stars?). I will complain until something is done. My husband and I were married a couple years ago and he is originally from Brazil. He misses his family so we helped his sister and mother with all the visa documents so they could go to the embassy and apply for a visa. We've also been saving money to buy them flights and support them during their trip here. They live hours from the embassy but my husband's friend in Brazil agreed to drive them. When they arrived at the interview, they were asked who Eduardo is (my husband) and what they (his sister and mother) do for work. Then they denied it on the spot.....His sister and mother are both married and both have mortgages in Brazil (which of course they brought copies of)....The embassy didn't look at the paperwork, the sponsorship info..nothing...just denied. I worked with student visas and immigration for years....this is corruption!!!
