bx26 Posted July 30, 2007 Report Share Posted July 30, 2007 Hello All, To just follow up, sorry i have not kept up my posts. We were originally given an interview date of June 4th, with only two weeks to prepare. I was in the middle of some work i could not stop, so we requested another interview date and received July 26th. I have just returned and am happy to announce we were approved!! To update, we had initially applied for a K-3 Visa last year but were denied, so we just followed through with our CR-1. I submitted a fresh I-864 with three years tax returns with IRS transcripts as well. I had planted a little pine tree on my property after I had returned home from my first trip to China in 2005, when we were married. This little tree we have used to symbolize our marriage, it has grown rapidly and is in good health, so i clipped a branch and brought it with me and had Zou give it to the VO with a letter explaining about it. He smiled, then gave her a pink slip after asking only six questions. So we then waited two days then went to pick up her visa. So, there you have it ladies and gentlemen, I hope my little bit of info may help anyone in that tough waiting period, remember to keep your chin up, because good things can and do happen. Guangzhou in July was 95-100 with 90% humidity. Link to comment

bx26 Posted July 30, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 30, 2007 Congratulations. I wouldn't have the patience to ask for a later interview date, but I am glad it worked for you. I was a little leery of asking for it, but was in a tough spot, but Zou said that she knew of someone who had just asked for a reschedule, so I think one time is o.k. Link to comment

Zhen's Tiger Posted August 1, 2007 Report Share Posted August 1, 2007 Congratulations, very happy for you!! As a side question; I am wondering how many other people were denied a K-3 & continued with the CR-1 & were approved? Either way, that's awesome! Steve Link to comment
