Some of us...Khadija,<BR/><BR/>You and I are on the same boat! Some of us Libyan women here in the US are going through the same issues. It is worse in my case, since my husband, my children and myself are American citizens and we're being denied the right to have family visit us.<BR/><BR/>Last summer, my sister and her 2 daughters applied for the American visa so they can come spend summer with us here in the US. They were denied the visa, because she's a young widow and lives with her parents; it was ruled that she intended to stay in the US. Her house, bank papers, her job, her being a grad student in Libya, all was not proof enough for the American consular that my sister has no intention of immigrating to the US.<BR/><BR/>Now, none of my family in Libya is willing to go through the trouble of traveling to apply for the American visa. None of them has seen my kids yet! Before it was the American and the Libyan governments that won't allow it, now it's the American government.<BR/><BR/>More Libyans have been coming to the US and visas have been easier to obtain, but it all depends on who they interview with for the visa.Hannuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07277562554072670167noreply@blogger.com
