valenbb Posted December 1, 2008 Report Share Posted December 1, 2008 (edited) My SO's interview was today and she passed. Thanks CFL! Details:1. Arrived at the Consulate at 7AM, and the lines were disorganized.2. Security Guard came with a megaphone and organized lines according to interview time.3. It took forever to get inside the building, but eventually entered at 7:45 AM.4. We stayed together for awhile on the 4th floor.5. 10 minutes later she allowed to enter the 4th floor (gave her a big SMOOCH) and eventually the 5th.6. Waiting! Toilet Break! Waiting! Toilet Break! Waiting!7. At 10:55, wife appeared with a big smile and holding that pink paper.8. Took another toilet break.9. Her details: a. Handed in the medical package; she was told to open it; the lady asked a few questions; handed in the AOS; same lady asked a few more questions. b. Paid the IV Fee, and took the receipt to the medical window; SO was now given a number (for fingerprinting and interview). c. Fingerprinting was next and then the interview. d. The VO was a young Asian woman, and asked few questions. My wife spent about 1-2 minutes only. Got the congratulations! e. After interview, did the visa pickup scheduling and fee paying.10. Visa will be picked up 2 days later. Here's a pic (too excited and hungry, I forgot to put myself in):http://i485.photobucket.com/albums/rr213/andybb_photo/BearVisa2.jpg Edited December 1, 2008 by valenbb (see edit history) Link to comment

Great news!! Congrats to you both!!! I like those DCF timelines, and the fact that you lived with your wife for the whole 7 months and a week it took ....maybe in 2011 we'll do one too, we want that 10 year greencard and no more dealing with the government for a LONG time. tsap seui Edited December 1, 2008 by tsap seui (see edit history) Link to comment
Sebastian Posted December 1, 2008 Report Share Posted December 1, 2008 Great News !! GO PINK !!!!! Link to comment
valenbb Posted December 1, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 1, 2008 I do have to say that there were only a couple of foreign spouses on the 4th floor (including me). It was disappointing as I was hoping to sit down and chat with some folks. So, just me at the coffee shop, which was expensive by the way. To pass the time, I played mah jhong on my cell phone.
