Interview Info

[hunter]

Ok, after chatting with my wife, I got the details.

She got to the Embassy at 7:00 am. She waited in line until 8:00 then went up to the 6th floor where she gave them the medical stuff. She then went to the 5th floor for the interview. She had to swear that she was honest on rovocation of ever coming to the USA. An hour later she was called to window 19, where she had to explaine that her ex husband had guardianship of her son and she had to fill out a form and sign it and date it. Then she was called up to have her right index finger printed. Later she was called to window 29 where an unidentifiable asian man conducted the interview. She said it was around 10:00 when that occured. The vo asked her again about her son, asked if she spoke english and she told him yes. After a bit they reverted to chinese, I guess she was having a hard time hearing him through the window microphone. He then asked to see some pictures and 2 minutes later stamped her passport and said she had a visa. My wife said all the vo's that she had contact with were very kind and smiled. Thats about it.

It sounds way TOO easy. From my read, she was only asked about her son who was not a visa applicant. Are you saying she was asked no other questions?

 

Not asked to provide any proof of communication?

 

Not asked anything about her husband?

 

Not asked for an I-134?

 

Only asked for pictures?

 

They switched to Chinese because she was having trouble hearing what? "pictures" and "visa?

 

Sharing of details is optional, of course. Are you sure this is all?

A real nice gift horse. Don't bother looking in its mouth.

CONGRATULATIONS !!!

 

And it should be way too easy!

 

My SO was not asked for a single thing.. no paper nor pictures... she was so upset to have so much prepared and to pass it so easily... and we had prepared a picture of me in local Yunnan custome !

 

At least she got to show the VO some pictures

I think it's fantastic if it was that easy. I'm just asking for clarification to make sure I'm not mistaking a donkey for a horse.

Pshbark, you heard correctly, she was not asked to provide even an iota of proof or tax stuff nor i-134, nothing. big fat 0. hehe, only some pictures and stuff about her child. she said it was 2 minutes. she tried to give the vo some proof but he wouldnt accept it, aparantly i provided sufficient info and they were happy with it. if you dot your i's cross your t's and pay attention to what cfl says. its easy! Furthermore, I want to express my heart felt thank you's and you know who you are. Thank you for the support, prayers, and good advice, even if the answers were not what I wanted, I always paid strict attention to everything.
