Brian & Kathy Posted July 7, 2008 Report Share Posted July 7, 2008 (edited) This evening, I got a single word text message from Kathy: PASSUnfortunately, I couldn't be in Guangzhou with Kathy. I was in China with her when the F1 student visa was denied. It was very difficult coming back to the US alone, and it royally ruined all the plans we had made. Based on that terrible experience, we decided it would be best for me to come several weeks after the interview, which also gives her time to find a wedding dress and pack. The interview is as follows:VO: Your passport pleaseKathy: SureVO: Who's the petitioner?Kathy: Brian D... My fianceVO: How did you know eachother?Kathy: We were introduced by my teacher, XX and Brian's best friend XYVO: What's their relationship?Kathy: They married in 2005,and both in the USA now. Do you wanna have a look at their pictures?VO: Alright, no need.VO: Which teacher? Your college teacher, or what?Kathy: nope, my training course, for the translation certificate teacherVO: When did you start the relationship?Kathy: Several weeks after knowing each other.VO: When?Kathy: Around Oct. 2005VO: When was his first trip for visiting here?Kathy: January 6, to 16, 2007VO: How many times?Kathy: 3 totally, and Brian will be here July 18, as the fourth trip.VO: Do you have pictures?Kathy: Yes, sure. (she gave to him, and was explaining everything, he looked through very quickly. she showed him our photo album and he said no need)VO: What does he do?Kathy: Brian is working for URS, as a Mechanical DrafterVO: His finacial documents, please?Kathy: Sure. this is I-134, Brian's employment letter and Brian's 2007 tax transcript. (then, he stapled the tax transcript and I-134)Kathy: I have Brian's 2008 pay checks, you wanna have a look?VO: Alright, no needVO: Have you applied for any other visas?Kathy: Yes, F1VO: Did you go to the USA to study?Kathy: No (he checked the DS-156 form for the answers on previous visas, and then didn't say anything)VO: CongradulationsThen, he got a red/pink paper from a stack of papers with a variety of colors.Kathy: Ohhh, Thank You soo very much! (the loudest words of the interview. then, she said 'thanks' another 3 times),The VO was a male, asian and didn't smile a single time during the interview. Seems he was very thurough with his work. There were a lot of questions, but it was only around 2 minutes long, and Kathy finished before the others around her. Kathy had a whole suit case full of evidence, including emails, phone bills, emails with my mom, ect, but we only needed the pictures, I-134 and my 2007 tax transcripts. We are both very excited and happy, but it'll be even better when we have the visa in hand. Edited July 7, 2008 by Brian & Kathy (see edit history) Link to comment
