ameriken Posted February 7, 2006 Report Share Posted February 7, 2006 Well, Jie had her interview today. Fortunately, she was not one of the blue slips ! Yes, she sat and waited and watched 6 VO's give out red and blue slips. She sat across from who she believes is the infamous 'black pearl', who interviewed two different girls, each for a very long time, maybe 5 to 6 minutes each, and Jie saw her give out a blue slip to each of them. Then Jie's number was called "My God, it was for the 'black pearl'." But, Jie's interview lasted only 40 seconds. Three questions. "Where did you meet" "Did your fiance meet your parents" "Do you have the I-134". That was it. Jie said she could feel she was not going to get a blue slip. Jie did the interview in English. She was of course, very nervous. She went to the window and said "Good morning, sir". The VO looked up at her with only her eyes and just murmered "Madam". Then asked where we met. Then another question that Jie could not understand, due to the sound of the speaker in the window, maybe some words she could not understand. But Jie heard the word "parents" and said "Do you mean, did Kenny meet my parents?". And the VO said "Yes." Jie said "Yes,two times, would you like to see the pictures?" And the VO said "Yes", looked at the pictures, Jie explained "This is from Kennys first visit, this is at my parents house", then gave her another set, and said "This is Kennys second visit, we had dinner at a restaurant". The VO gave them back to her, let her wait a few seconds, asked for the I-134, looked at it, not very hurried, then Jie said she saw the red paper and heard the word 'approved'. Then said "Thank you very much Madam". And ran downstairs to find me. I was sitting with another man waiting for his wife to get a CR1. She got the same VO. Blue slip. Our feeling from this, is K1 is perhaps the easiest visa to get approved, because it is asking the consulate to just give a temporary visa, not approve an immigrant status. The other thing, is make sure you do very well on the paperwork, starting from the initial application. If your paperwork is good, you have submitted what the govt says, listen to the advice on CFL, and dress nicely (or confidently) for the interview, then you have good chance to get approved. Jie's impression of the VO: very serious, very businesslike, very well dressed, very professional, and knows what she is doing. For us, all we can say is "Thank you very much Madam". Really! And all I have to say is YIIIIPPPPPPPPPPEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Link to comment
