  1. I am writing my story as I was in a lot of stress and wanted to know clear information. I want you guys, first in place not be in my situation. If you are in similar situation then just read through this information to be aware and prepare ahead of time. If anyone needs more info please contact me. I will do my best to give any info that may help you. I understand the stress around it.

Me: Thank you Next steps: Stepped out of the embassy. Took cab and went to Rele Clinic Asked cab driver to drive through the toll road and paid extra toll fees as its faster Called Rele Clinic and told them I need an appointment for the same day I mentioned to Rele Clinic US embassy gave me 221g because of dui and asked me to go through some tests They are aware of what we are talking about They said there is no appointment its walk-in (I would recommend to call as they would expect your coming and you can confirm your headed to right location) At Rele Clinic on Dec 21st: Filled some forms Gave blood Met Dr. Rele He asked me about my drinking habits and any past problems I had drinking related. Took check x-ray Then asked for around 12 passport size pictures Referred me to a therapist and gave me some slip that I took to the therapist One of boy that works at rele clinic walked with me to therapist to show the way Therapist asked me a lot of questions about my drinking habit And he was writing a lot on a sheet of paper based on my responses He said I am done and he will send the report to Dr. Rele same day Based on the report Dr. Rele will send my 221g form along with final report to US Embassy I came back to Rele Clinic Completed my paper work. Rele Clinic gave me a CD in a Sealed envelope and said it has my xray results and asked me not to open. They said at the port of entry visa officer will ask for this CD. Rele Clinic said they will send the report back to US Embassy in a day or 2. On Dec 28th my status got updated and I also got mail from US travel doc saying please submit passport. Submitted passport the same day. Then tracked visa status daily. On Jan 14th it said "visa issued passport ready for pickup". Collected passport same day and flew to US on Jan 15th At the Port of Entry: Officer asked – Have you ever been arrested. I replied yes. Officer asked me to to go to another room. Where another officer took my passport and I-797. I was told that Visa is privilege and I can’t be repeating these things. He said he will not let me in. And Asked me to take a seat. I sat down for about 15 to 20 minutes then the same officer called me again and he stamped my passport and said welcome to US. They never asked me for any CD that Rele Clinic gave me.
