Hi, My wife went to her interview this week and was told that more information was needed. A few years ago before i met my wife, she went to Germany and overstayed her visa by 7-8 months. The German authorities stamped her passport at that time, stating that she could not re-enter Germany. However, she was not issued any type of criminal status by the authorities.

While in her interview, the agent stated that he needed a police certificate, her old passport and phone bills. As of now we have 2 of the 3 and are working on the police certificate.

Will her overstaying her visa effect receiving her C-1 Visa? Is there anything else we can do that can do? If she does not receive her visa, can we re-apply or appeal? thank you
