We talk about the criteria. Ms. Long made a statement that the “criteria results in serious consequences to the families”. Obviously there are criteria for a reason. If there were no criteria for a visa officer to follow, then it would just simply be an assumption or a guess. Is that correct? The criteria are important to actually assess the application. So regardless of whether someone thinks it has a serious consequence if someone is denied or accepted, the criteria are an important aspect of that application. Is that correct?
