Thanks Everyone. I have posted the interview process in another thread and hope it can provide a little insight on the process for those who will go to GuangZhou soon.

Thank you very much again for all the help during the Visa process. This is a long process and it sure made it that much bearable with every one's help and support. My Fianc¨¦e wrote up the interview process in Chinese and posted on the 001 forum¡­ Here is my translated version. She got up at 5:40am in the morning, went over the paper work one last time to make sure she is not missing anything, dress and eat. George Lee¡¯s wife and she went down to the Embassy about 7am and there are already a lot of people waiting in line. So, they are kind at very end of the line. Shortly after 7am, they were let in by showing their appointment letter (a number was given to them by the gate guard). After getting in the main door they went straight to 4th floor, checked their appointment letter again before letting them to the 5th floor (the number given by the gate guard was taken away at this point). Security check at 5th floor, once done you can enter the main hall to find a seat and wait. So, it really doesn¡¯t matter if go to the embassy early, just make sure you are there before 7am. Not long after my fianc¨¦e enter the main hall she was called by a Chinese personnel to a window, she was asked to provide documents and asked two questions one if she went to other countries, which she did (UK for 3 years of study and Italy for a 15 day vacation), and 2nd if she is in Communist Party (answer was no). After the Chinese personnel collected all her documents she was given a 4 digit number then asked to wait again. Documents collected here are: Medical Exam Forms, All Forms in P 4, Financial Support Documents (Tax returns, Employer Letter, I-134 form, pay stubs etc..), Copy of Passport, All her certificates (Birth, Single, Police), Visa payment Receipt. Few minutes later she was called again to take her finger prints. This only took less than a minute. Everyone took a oath at 9am then the interview begins. She was called right a way, VO is a middle aged white man. I think it is the same VO that interviewed George Lee¡¯s Wife. VO had some problem with his mic at first (my fianc¨¦e can hear him, but he can¡¯t hear her). So, VO spend few minutes fixing the mic and my fianc¨¦e helped him by keep saying ¡°Hello¡± till he can hear her. (funny). My fianc¨¦e asked VO if he wants to read the letter I wrote him, but he didn¡¯t answer and went straight for his questions. Interview was in English VO: Where are you coming from? Her: ChengDu VO: How did you meet your Finance? Her: Online VO: When did you Meet? Her: End of February ---Then VO started to look at his computer and looking thru the documents collected earlier (I am thinking checking the financial support info). During this, my Fianc¨¦e asked VO if he like to read the letter I have wrote him, still no response. --- VO: When did he first visit you? Her: Summer, Last May ---- While looking at the documents--- VO: How long have you stayed in UK? Her: between 2002 and 2005 VO: What did you do there? Her: College VO: Did you get a Degree? Her: Yes VO: When did you meet your Finance? (2nd time asking this question) Her: Last February VO: When exactly? Her: End of February, around 22nd I think. VO: What year exactly? Her: 2008 VO: When did you Finance went to USA? Her: 1992 VO: Do you have photos? Her: Passed him the photos. VO: Did you guys travel when he visited? Her: Not really. We mostly stayed with Family. --- VO flipped to the Family photo section and looked thru them quickly. Then took a pink slip and started to write on it. --- VO: Leave your passport here, go to that postal office and then you can leave. Her: turns around and ready to leave. VO: Oh, you passed, congratulations Her: smiled and said Thank you. That¡¯s it. 20 RMB to the Postal Office then she walked out. That¡¯s about 9:20am. People outside said he was the first one out. I was surprised to see her online at 9:20 (qq from her cell phone), so I called her right a way to got the good news. I hope this write up provides a little insight on the interview process in GuangZhou. I wish everyone a easy and smooth PINK and be with your love ones forever.

Thank you, Thank you. And Congrats to George Lee!!! I knew we are going to get it... Pink Rules..

Yeah.. I know how that feels. I can't get my mind off her interview this past few days. Your wife and my Fianc¨¦e are together up till the point my Fianc¨¦e was called for the interview. I am sure you will hear the good news very soon.

It is a Pink! Yup my Fianc¨¦e just got out from her interview and it is a Pink. Whole interview only took couple minutes and VO didn't even look at any of the documents. She was interviewed first. I am sure your wife will be as easy georgelee.

Yeah... 4 more days... She is in GuangZhou and just got her Medical Exam done.. So far so good... Closed on the home today, and I can't even get excited.. my mind is all on her interview.. heeh.. I will wait till Tuesday night to let everything out.. heeh.. PINK is coming.. I can feel it...

2 more weeks till the interview, I can't wait for the Pink. Our home closes on March 20th. I will have Living Room and my office setup (can't live without TV and internet, haha). The rest of the house is all up to her. Should take me about a month or so to get everything setup and ready. Then I will go back to China and bring her here with me.

She is right about the Police Certificate. It should be for across China. Ask her to check the English Translation in the certificate, it should be worded as no criminal record in China or smilar. As for your 2nd question, GZ may still use the old forms. But for P3, there is only just 1 form to fill out and mail back. It should only take her few minutes to fill out, so don't really need to fill that form out ahead of time. Depends on when your P2 was send out from NVC, it may be a little while to get P3. Ours took a little almost 3 months, but there are other been waiting for over 4 months.

I have IRS Tax transcripts for Tax year 2006 and 2007. I have not done my 2008 tax return yet, so I send my Fianc¨¦e my a copy of my 2008 W-2 from. Will that be enough for my tax information? Also for my financial info, I send an online print out of my bank balance, 3 recent pay stubs, notarized letter from employer with my employment status and salary info. That should cover all my financial requirements right?

My bubble was busted. I can't get any time off in Late March for the interview. The best I can do is 2 week in Early June to go and bring my Fianc¨¦e back to the States with me. Hope you have better luck.

From what I read on 001 Forum, GIV-24 is no longer needed for K1, K3, IR-1, CR-1. Some on 001 has asked GZ why they didn't get GIV-24 in the P4 package, GZ's reply is if it is not in your package then it is not required. My Fianc¨¦e received our K1 P4 today, but has not opened it yet. (She is in a different city now from where P4 was send). I will have her check if GIV-24 is in our package this coming weekend. george lee's CR-1 P4 contains GIV-24. So, to be safe I would download and print out couple copies of GIV-24 if you do not have it in your P4. If you do have it in P4, then fill it out and bring it to the interview.

Sorry to hear that, but there is really nothing anyone can do. On the Chinese 001 forum, there are a lot of people in the same boat as you. There is a person on 001 forum that has access to check when packages clears customs, (many believes she works for the consulate in GZ). Even she can't provide any useful info. All she can say most packages send out from NVA in OCT 2008 have not cleared customs yet.

Ah, I see. My Boss is out due to Snow too. I am in Boston, so we are both in the same storm. hy020, funny how bosses are able to take snow days off B) If it is up to me, bosses can take as many snow days off as they want. Just approve our times off.
