Kuyenda ndi khadi lobiriwira lomwe latha nthawi zonse kumakhala koyipa, ndipo Sheila Bergara adangophunzira izi movutikira.
M'mbuyomu, mapulani a Bergara ndi mwamuna wake opita kutchuthi kumadera otentha adatha mwadzidzidzi pamalo ochezera a United Airlines.Kumeneko, woimira ndege adauza Bergara kuti sangalowe ku Mexico kuchokera ku United States pa khadi lobiriwira lomwe linatha.Zotsatira zake, United Airlines idakana banjali kukwera ndege yopita ku Cancun.
Mwamuna wa Sheila, Paul, adati ndegeyo idalakwitsa kukana kuti banjali likwere ndikuwononga mapulani awo atchuthi.Iye anaumirira kuti kukonzanso green card ya mkazi wake kudzamulola kupita kunja.Koma United sinavomereze ndipo idawona kuti nkhaniyi idatsekedwa.
Paul akufuna United kuti atsegulenso madandaulo ake ndipo avomereza kuti adalakwitsa zomwe zidamuwonongera $ 3,000 kuti akonze.
Akukhulupirira kuti banjali lidakwera ndege kupita ku Mexico tsiku lotsatira pa Spirit Airlines ikuwonetsa mlandu wake.Koma sichoncho?
Chaka chatha, Paul ndi mkazi wake anavomera chiitano cha ukwati wa July ku Mexico.Komabe, Sheila, yemwe amakhala ku United States mokhazikika, anali ndi vuto: green card yake inali itangotha ntchito.
Ngakhale kuti adapempha chilolezo chokhalamo pa nthawi yake, ndondomeko yovomerezeka inatenga miyezi 12-18.Iye ankadziwa kuti green card yatsopanoyo n’zokayikitsa kuti ifika pa nthawi yake paulendowo.
Mlendo wakale wakale Paul adafufuza pang'ono powerenga bukhu lotsogolera patsamba la kazembe waku Mexico.Kutengera chidziwitsochi, adatsimikiza kuti green card ya Sheila yomwe idatha ntchito sizingamulepheretse kupita ku Cancun.
“Pamene tinali kuyembekezera green card yatsopano ya mkazi wanga, analandira fomu ya I-797.Chikalatachi chinawonjezera green card yovomerezeka kwa zaka zina ziwiri,” Paul anandifotokozera."Chifukwa chake sitinayembekezere mavuto aliwonse ndi Mexico."
Pokhulupirira kuti zonse zayenda bwino, banjali linagwiritsa ntchito Expedia kusungitsa ndege yosayimitsa kuchokera ku Chicago kupita ku Cancun ndipo akuyembekezera ulendo wopita ku Mexico.Sanaganizirenso za makhadi obiriwira omwe anatha ntchito.
Mpaka tsiku lomwe ali okonzeka kupita kumadera otentha.Kuyambira nthawi imeneyo, kupita kudziko lina ndi khadi lobiriwira lomwe latha ntchito si lingaliro labwino.
Banjali linalinganiza kumwa kokonati rum pagombe la Caribbean chakudya chamasana chisanakwane, n’kufika pabwalo la ndege m’bandakucha wa tsikulo.Akupita ku kauntala ya United Airlines, adapereka zikalata zonse ndikudikirira moleza mtima chiphaso chokwerera.Osayembekeza vuto lililonse, adacheza kwinaku wothandizirawo akulemba pa kiyibodi.
Pamene chiphaso chokwerera sichinaperekedwe patapita nthawi, banjali lidayamba kudabwa kuti chachedwetsa chani.
Wothandizira wankhanzayo adayang'ana pakompyuta kuti apereke uthenga woyipa: Sheila sakanatha kupita ku Mexico ndi khadi yobiriwira yomwe idatha.Pasipoti yake yovomerezeka yaku Filipino imamulepheretsanso kutsatira njira zosamukira ku Cancun.Othandizira ku United Airlines adawauza kuti akufunika visa yaku Mexico kuti akwere ndege.
Paulo anayesa kukambirana ndi woimira, kufotokoza kuti Fomu I-797 imakhalabe ndi mphamvu ya khadi lobiriwira.
“Anandiuza kuti ayi.Kenako wothandizira adatiwonetsa chikalata chamkati chomwe chidati United idalipira chindapusa chifukwa chotengera omwe ali ndi I-797 kupita ku Mexico, "Paul adandiuza."Adatiuza kuti iyi si ndondomeko ya ndege, koma ndi mfundo za boma la Mexico."
Paulo ananena kuti anali wotsimikiza kuti wothandizirayo analakwitsa, koma anazindikira kuti panalibe chifukwa chokhalira kukangana.Pamene woyimira akuwonetsa kuti Paul ndi Sheila aletsa ndege yawo kuti alandire ngongole ya United paulendo wamtsogolo wandege, amavomereza.
"Ndikuganiza kuti ndigwira ntchito pambuyo pake ndi United," Paul adandiuza.Choyamba, ndiyenera kudziwa momwe ndingapititsire ku Mexico ku ukwatiwo.
Posakhalitsa Paul adadziwitsidwa kuti United Airlines idayimitsa kusungitsa kwawo ndikuwapatsa ngongole ya mtsogolo ya $1,147 paulendo womwe waphonya kupita ku Cancun.Koma awiriwa adasungitsa ulendowo ndi Expedia, yomwe idakonza ulendowo ngati matikiti awiri olowera njira imodzi osalumikizana.Chifukwa chake, matikiti obwerera ku Frontier sabwezeredwa.Ndegeyo idalipiritsa awiriwa chindapusa cha $458 ndipo idapereka $1,146 ngati ngongole yoyendera ndege zamtsogolo.Expedia idalipiritsanso banjali chindapusa cha $99.
Kenako Paul adatembenukira ku Spirit Airlines, zomwe akuyembekeza kuti sizingabweretse vuto ngati United.
“Ndinasungitsa ndege ya Spirit tsiku lotsatira kuti tisaphonye ulendo wonse.Matikiti amphindi yomaliza amawononga $2,000, "Paul adatero."Ndi njira yodula kukonza zolakwika za United, koma ndilibe chochita."
Tsiku lotsatira, banjali lidayandikira kauntala ya Spirit Airlines ndi zikalata zomwezo monga dzulo lake.Paul ali ndi chidaliro kuti Sheila ali ndi zomwe zimafunika kuti apite ku Mexico.
Nthawi ino ndi zosiyana kotheratu.Anapereka zikalatazo kwa ogwira ntchito ku Spirit Airlines, ndipo banjali linalandira ziphaso zawo zogonera mosazengereza.
Patatha maola angapo, akuluakulu owona za anthu olowa ndi kutuluka ku Mexico adadinda pasipoti ya Sheila, ndipo posakhalitsa banjali lidasangalala ndi ma cocktails m'mphepete mwa nyanja.Pamene a Bergara adafika ku Mexico, ulendo wawo unali wosasangalatsa komanso wosangalatsa (omwe, malinga ndi Paulo, adawalungamitsa).
Banjali litabwerako kutchuthi, Paul anali wotsimikiza mtima kuonetsetsa kuti chiwembu chofananacho chisachitike kwa munthu wina aliyense wokhala ndi khadi lobiriwira.
After submitting his complaint to United Airlines and not receiving confirmation that she made a mistake, Paul sent his story to tip@thepointsguy.com and asked for help. In no time, his disturbing story arrived in my inbox.
Nditawerenga nkhani ya Paul ya zimene zinachitikira banjali, ndinakhumudwa kwambiri ndi zimene anakumana nazo.
Komabe, ndikukayikiranso kuti United sinachite cholakwika chilichonse pokana kulola Sheila kupita ku Mexico ndi khadi yobiriwira yomwe idatha.
Kwa zaka zambiri, ndasamalira masauzande a madandaulo ogula.Ambiri mwa milanduyi amakhudza apaulendo omwe amasokonezedwa ndi zoyendera komanso zolowera kumayiko akunja.Izi sizinachitikeponso pa nthawi ya mliri.M'malo mwake, tchuthi cha omwe ali ndi luso komanso odziwa zambiri apaulendo akumayiko ena asokonezedwa ndi chipwirikiti, zomwe zikusintha mwachangu zoletsa kuyenda chifukwa cha coronavirus.
Komabe, mliriwu siwomwe unayambitsa vuto la Paul ndi Sheila.Kulephera kwa tchuthicho kunayambitsidwa ndi kusamvetsetsa malamulo ovuta a maulendo a anthu okhazikika a United States.
Ndidawunikanso zomwe zaperekedwa ndi kazembe waku Mexico ndikuwunikanso zomwe ndimakhulupirira kuti zinali choncho.
Nkhani zoipa kwa Paul: Mexico sikuvomereza Fomu I-797 ngati chikalata chovomerezeka choyendera.Sheila ankayenda ndi green card yolakwika komanso pasipoti ya ku Filipino popanda visa.
United Airlines idachita zoyenera pomukana kukwera ndege yopita ku Mexico.
Omwe ali ndi makhadi obiriwira sayenera kudalira chikalata cha I-797 kutsimikizira kukhala US kudziko lina.Fomuyi imagwiritsidwa ntchito ndi akuluakulu a US Immigration ndipo amalola omwe ali ndi makadi obiriwira kubwerera kwawo.Koma palibe boma lina lomwe likuyenera kuvomereza kuonjezedwa kwa I-797 ngati umboni wokhala ku US - mwina sangatero.
M'malo mwake, kazembe waku Mexico adanena momveka bwino kuti pa Fomu I-797 yokhala ndi khadi yobiriwira yomwe yatha, kulowa mdziko muno ndikoletsedwa, ndipo pasipoti ndi khadi yobiriwira ya munthu wokhalamo siziyenera kutha:
Ndinafotokozera Paul izi, ndikumuuza kuti ngati United Airlines ilola Sheila kukwera ndege ndipo akanidwa kulowa, akhoza kulipidwa.Anayang'ana chilengezo cha kazembeyo, koma adandikumbutsa kuti Spirit Airlines sinapeze vuto ndi mapepala a Sheila kapena akuluakulu olowa ndi kutuluka ku Cancun.
Akuluakulu oona za anthu olowa ndi kutuluka m'dziko ali ndi mwayi wosankha ngati angalole alendo kulowa m'dzikoli.Sheila akanakanidwa mosavuta, kumangidwa, ndikubwerera ku US paulendo wotsatira womwe ukupezekapo.(Ndanenapo milandu yambiri ya apaulendo okhala ndi zikalata zoyendera zosakwanira akutsekeredwa ndiyeno mwamsanga kubwerera kumene ananyamuka. Zinali zokhumudwitsa kwambiri.)
Posakhalitsa ndinapeza yankho lomaliza limene Paulo ankafuna, ndipo ankafuna kugawana ndi ena kuti asakhalenso mumkhalidwe womwewo.
Kazembe wa Cancun akutsimikizira kuti: “Nthawi zambiri, nzika za ku United States zopita ku dziko la Mexico ziyenera kukhala ndi pasipoti yovomerezeka (dziko limene anachokera) ndi khadi lobiriwira la LPR lokhala ndi visa ya ku United States.”
Sheila akanatha kufunsira visa yaku Mexico, yomwe nthawi zambiri imatenga masiku 10 mpaka 14 kuti ivomerezedwe, ndipo mwina ikadafika popanda chochitika.Koma khadi yobiriwira ya I-797 yomwe yatha ntchito siyokakamizidwa ku United Airlines.
Kuti akhale ndi mtendere wamumtima, ndikupempha Paul kuti agwiritse ntchito pasipoti yaulere, visa, ndi cheke chachipatala cha IATA ndikuwona zomwe akunena za Sheila kuti azitha kupita ku Mexico popanda visa.
Mtundu waukadaulo wa chida ichi (Timatic) umagwiritsidwa ntchito ndi ndege zambiri polowa kuti zitsimikizire kuti omwe akukwera ali ndi zikalata zomwe amafunikira kuti akwere ndege.Komabe, apaulendo atha ndipo akuyenera kugwiritsa ntchito mtundu waulere nthawi yayitali asanapite ku eyapoti kuti awonetsetse kuti sakuphonya zikalata zofunika zoyendera.
Paul atawonjezera zonse za Sheila, Timat adalandira yankho lomwe linathandiza banjali miyezi ingapo yapitayo ndikuwapulumutsa pafupifupi $3,000: Sheila ankafunikira visa kuti apite ku Mexico.
Mwamwayi, mkulu woona za anthu olowa m’dziko la Cancun anamulola kulowamo popanda vuto lililonse.Monga ndaphunzirira pa milandu yambiri yomwe ndaphunzira, kukanidwa kukwera ndege kupita komwe mukupita kumakhumudwitsa.Komabe, ndizoipa kwambiri kumangidwa usiku wonse ndikubwezeredwa kudziko lakwanu popanda chipukuta misozi komanso popanda tchuthi.
Pamapeto pake, Paul anasangalala ndi uthenga womveka bwino umene banjali unalandira wakuti Sheila adzalandira khadi lobiriwira lomwe linatha ntchito posachedwapa.Monga momwe zimakhalira ndi machitidwe onse aboma panthawi ya mliri, olembetsa omwe akudikirira kusintha zikalata zawo ayenera kuchedwa.
Koma tsopano zikuwonekeratu kwa awiriwa kuti ngati angaganize zopitanso kunja kwinaku akudikirira, Sheila sadzadalira Fomu I-797 ngati chikalata chake choyendera.
Kukhala ndi khadi yobiriwira yomwe yatha nthawi zonse kumapangitsa kukhala kovuta kuyenda padziko lapansi.Oyenda omwe akuyesera kukwera ndege yapadziko lonse lapansi ndi khadi lobiriwira lomwe latha ntchito amatha kukumana ndi zovuta pakunyamuka komanso pofika.
Green khadi yovomerezeka ndi yomwe siinathe.Okhala ndi makadi obiriwira omwe atha ntchito samataya mwayi wokhalamo, koma kuyesa kupita kumayiko ena ali m'boma ndikowopsa.
Green Card yomwe yatha ntchito si chikalata chovomerezeka cholowera m'maiko ambiri akunja, komanso kulowanso ku United States.Amene ali ndi makhadi obiriwira ayenera kukumbukira izi pamene makhadi awo atsala pang'ono kutha.
Ngati khadi la mwiniwakeyo litha ntchito ali kunja, angakhale ndi vuto lokwera ndege, kulowa kapena kutuluka m’dzikolo.Ndi bwino kufunsira kukonzanso tsiku lomaliza lisanathe.Anthu okhazikika atha kuyambitsa ntchito yokonzanso mpaka miyezi isanu ndi umodzi lisanafike tsiku lenileni lotha ntchito.(Zindikirani: Okhazikika osakhazikika ali ndi masiku 90 green card yawo isanathe kuti ayambe ntchitoyi.)
