Re: Visafor Stepson, Samuel Andres Diaz (Visa Application

No._ Invoice No. 1 VS C-, and Reentry

Permit for Spouse, Johanna errer Zamche de Clarkson (Permanent

Resident No.? Exp. May 14, 2020)

Dear Mr. President,

I am the Attorney General of the State of Alaska, appointed by Governor
Michael J. Dunleavy in December, 2018. I write you to in my personal capacity in order
to respectfully request your assistance in (1) securing the completion of Visa approval for
my young six-year old stepson, Samuel Andres Diaz (Application approved by USCIS
June 14, 2019), and (2) ensuring re-entry into the United States for my wife,
Johanna Ferrer Zarache de Clarkson (granted Permanent Residence May 14, 2018).
Johanna and I have been waiting for over one and one?half years for Sammy?s Visa
application to be processed and approved by the United States government. And, because
Sammy is so young, unable to care for himself, and requires his mother?s presence with
him, Johanna travelled to and remained in Colombia to care for him as we wait for his
Visa. We are now beyond three years from when Johanna and I married and over two and
one half years from when we began the Visa application process, and over one
year from when Johanna was last in the United States. Any assistance that you can
provide to unite our family here in Alaska would be greatly appreciated.

Johanna and Sammy are citizens of Colombia. Johanna and I married on
November 19, 2016, and we filed an application for her to receive a spousal Visa the
following Spring. ohanna?s Visa was approved and delivered to her and she entered the
United States in May, 2018. Johanna was granted a Permanent Residence (Green) Card
on May 14, 2018 (Card o. Exp. May 14, 2020). Johanna travelled to
Colombia and returned to the United States with her Green Card twice in 2018.

The Government did not at the same time, however, provide a Visa to Sammy,
who was then five years old. Johanna and I, therefore, filed a separate
application for Sammy?s Visa in May, 2018. Sammy?s Visa application was finally
approved by USCIS on June 14, 2019. Thereafter, Samm ?s Visa a lication was
referred to the National Visa Center (Application o. and Inv. No.
As of this date, five months later, Johanna and I continue to wait

Re: US. Visa Application Re-Entry Permit Page 2 of 2

for the National Visa Center to schedule an interview for Sammy with the US. Embassy
in Bogota, Colombia so that we can complete his Visa application process. And, because
of the significant delay in the processing of Sammy?s Visa application, Johanna has now
been outside the United States caring for Sammy in Barranquilla, Colombia for a little
over one year.

Regretfully, Johanna and I did not apply for a Form 1?131 Reentry Permit for her
before she left the United States last November 21, 2018 to travel to Colombia to care for
Sammy. We did not anticipate that Sammy?s Visa application would require such an
inordinate amount of time to process and we believed that Johanna and Sammy would
both travel to the United States some time during the Spring or Summer of 2019.

I respectfully request any assistance that you can provide in (1) finalizing
Sammy?s Visa application process and the issuance of his Visa for entry into the United
States; and (2) the issuance of a Reentry Permit to Johanna so that she can return to the
United States, travelling with Sammy when he receives his Visa.

Thank you very much for your consideration of this request.
Most respectfully,



Kevin G. Clarkson
