Sorry guys ive been late sharing my interview experience. Just got busy with stuff leaving in 2 days iA.

So heres my interview exp

My husband was here and he went to embassy with me. We were called pretty late at window 8 .CO took an oath from me.

Qs in order

1.so who is he? I said my husband lol

2. Then he started asking my hubby about his job etc.where does he works.when he arrived pakistan(hes an attorney in the US)

3. Asked me where i went for my highschool and what is my highest level of education.

4.how are marriage was arranged.(i gave a detailed answer)

5.where am i from in pakistan which city.asked my hubby where is he frm in pakistan.

6 did we go to honeymoon(hubby answered we didnt cus he had limited time off but we hung out locally n we have been waiting fir this visa cus we both like hiking and go adventourous places tht is possible is US.

Thats it, he wasnt asking me any questions but i was eager to answer when he asked how are marriage got arranged and CO said oh u can answer. There were two coS one was a trainee standing .they were nice to me maybe cus my hubby was there .i could hear them literally shouting at girls who were their for cr-1 interview.. They were rude to one asking u dont know how many guests were there at ur wedding

They didnt ask us for any pics cus hubby already had printed and sent them in the packet to nvc.

In the end CO said give me 2 mins typed something on the computer and said congratulation ur visa has been approved!! .you will get your passport in 5 days but i got in 2 days lol next day the status was issued!.alhamdulilah. It was a long journey but ended happily

I wish you all the very best..and if husbands petitioners can accompany their wives at interview that would be really awesome.

Congratulations and thanks for telling us in detail.

one question i have is this, that they strictly say on the letter of interview that petitioner is not allowed to come and they wont welcome them even inside only people with interview letter with their name written on it which is beneficiary of course. So may i know how u managed to get ur petitioner(husband) in and to present with u at interview?

Trust me no one can stop the petitioner if hes a US citizen, he just needs to take his. US passport. Embassy is their own territory and they wont ever stop their citizen entering embassy.they just discourage so that embassy dsnt get overcrowded

congratulation.. were you talking in urdu or in english?

English but if you are not fluent dont opt for english
