Not told yes or no in interview?

[Sarah in Texas 0]

My fiancé just went for his interview at the Lithuanian consulate and they talked for a good 20-30 minutes. They kept his passport, but did not tell him if he was approved or not. They said he would hear from them in a week?

Is this a way to say no without having to tell him face to face? Or is it a good sign they kept his passport? They did not give him any letters or requests for more information. They gave him the pamphlets on domestic violence prevention etc, and since he is 24 he had to sign something about military service (I'm guessing that would still put him at the draft age if we ever have one).

From what I have read online a lot of times they tell you that you are approved right then... We are so worried now. We provided years worth of Skype conversations, proof of having met, all my financial documents for the affidavit of support etc, all his docs with translations. Notarized letter from friends attesting to our relationship... I am wracking my brain and going over everything and I don't think we missed anything.

Is this a bad sign? Or should we just take deep breaths and prepare to wait a week?

It's a good thing. Just a final review of everything. They don't take the passport if they don't intend to issue the visa.

Then you wait about a week.

No

Yes

They did not give him any letters or requests for more information.

Usually don't.

Standard stuff.

From what I have read online a lot of times they tell you that you are approved right then.

Sometimes.

Notarized letter from friends attesting to our relationship... I am wracking my brain and going over everything and I don't think we missed anything.

Chill out. Everything will be fine.
