Who/where does one go to when robbed by the US Immigration?

Question

My dad who is an american citizen petitioned for me while being a US resident. The petition was approved. 10 years later I came to the US and contacted the embassy (in Dec 2005) which gave me all the forms to be filled costing me $1200. I filled the forms on March 2006 and submitted the $1200. in fees to the american embassy. I was called to do Biometrics which I did in April and this week was called in to an interview. I was told my approved petition was revoked in Dec 21,2005 because I got married three years ago therefore I am now inelligible to recieve the green card. The US Immigration revoked my approved petition in Dec 21,2005 and recieved and cashed checks for my greencard in March 2006. I pointed this out to the supervisor at the USCIS a Ms. J. Sheldon who said that I won't be getting my money back , there is no way. This is robbery and fraud. Where or Who do we go to in a time like this when the Crime is being committed by a department of State?

Answer 1

I think you should go back and read all of the applications and documents which you signed or which were given to you. If someone told you that you cannot get a refund, you should first ask that person why, before making any accusations.
If you agreed to pay a non-refundable application fee, there is nothing you can do to get your money back.
In the US there can be any number of reasons an application fee has to be paid, and may not be refunded: If you apply for a mortgage, the mortgage company has to determine if you qualify. There are expenses involved in doing that. If the mortgage company then determines that you are not an acceptable risk, you do not get the loan and you lose your application fee.
The United States Government has expenses in determining who should be let into the US. Those expenses have to be covered somewhere. I certainly do not want to cover them with my tax money.
