I see it as the packet had to be put together when you sent the checklist back saying you had all the paper work. so it should be their fault it took so long to get the interview. i wasn't worried about it. maybe i should have worried about it but the pay check stubs from a month before worked fine for us. they did ask for paycheck stubs but didn't comment on how old they were. so what he has should be fine.

I feel better nowYep, agreed - they know it's coming from the states, and part of the requirement/checklist when you return packet 3 - so they have to realize it's not going to be from 1-2 weeks before the interview.
You'll be fine!!!!

Hello there VSC filers, it is great to see how far along the process everyone has gone. I'm excited seeing all the good news about interviews and visa approvals. Over on the CSC we are starting to get approvals and many of us are getting things together for the next step in the process. Because all the posters here have already seen and discussed the next step in the process, and are probably quite knowledgeable about it, I hope from time to time you will check in on the Jan CSC thread and offer any advice you might be able to give when you see a question asked.
Gods speed to all you you as you finally have your loved one's arrival date coming near

We'll put y'all out of your misery (sorry, didn't have net access until today, had to catch a train last night (4+ hours) and didn't get back to Stephen's place until after midnight and we were wiped out!!!!)

What kind of questions did they ask?Well, we walked up to the window with the consular officer, he looked at me and said "You must be the US citizen" and I replied yes, and he asked me where I lived. And I replied in North Carolina, and he then asked where, and I said Raleigh, suburbs. He asked which suburb, and I told him Cary, and he said, yeah, I've been there quite a few times. So at first in my mind I was like, hello, you aren't supposed to be interviewing me
. He then picked up Stephen's passport and ask something to the effect that he was a British citizen (Duh, his passport says UK), guess that's what we get with him currently residing in Germany Anyhow, then he asked how we met, which Stephen told him (and spun off into when and where we got engaged), he then asked if Stephen had been to the US, and if he had met my parents, (then looked at me, so I volunteered I'd met his mother as well, and that we had pictures if he was interested). He then was asked when he planned on going to the US, and Stephen answered as soon as possible (the officer smiled). The officer then asked if Stephen planned to work, and Stephen answered yes, and the officer then asked what kind of work Stephen did, and he told him his training was as a chef, which the officer replied something along the lines of oh, wow, you won't have any problems finding something in the US, always looking for good chefs!!!!
The officer wrapped things up with when we were planning on getting married. Stephen told him September 20th, and then interjected that we would be having a civil service sometime in June.And he then said, everything was in order, and as soon as they had the medical results they would issue the visa. We both looked at him, and I asked, so that means we are approved? And the officer answered, definitely, yes!! He then took Stephen's fingerprint scans, then the officer signed the required documents, and we were done. We turned around, walked out very calmly through the building we were in, through the courtyard, and then through the security entrance, down the embassy sidewalk, to the street, and then we both did the happy dance
And the actual interview took all of 5 minutes. When we first got in, it was about 1-2 minutes and our number was up on the board. Then the first window took about 1 minute, to get told how to organize the paperwork, and hand in the passport photo. Then we walked away, organized the stuff, had a coffee, and within 10 minutes, our number was up again to goto another window. We went to that window, and spent about 5 minutes, being asked questions about the forms that were returned with packet 3. We finished with that, and sat down again, and probably waited about 20-25 minutes for the final window with the consular officer.
Thinking back on it now, it's almost difficult to remember, it was a very surreal experience ... but an exciting end, definitely!!!!!!
Sounds like a breeze! I am glad to hear it went so well and was so easy. Now we are all going to get to file our AOS soon

Just a quick update..
We got Bella second interview for today.. She arrived at the embassy this morning and turned over the addition documents they requested.. They then asked for the passports.. She thought the embassy had kept them from the first interview.. She was told they returned them to her.. Well long story short, she wasn't aware the passports were in with all the other and original documents from the first interview at her house
... arrggg
They told her to come back tomorrow morning with the passports.. She asked if her visa was approved, and was told maybe.. She asked again.. they told her it was a very maybe.. unreal!
When she called me today she wasn't sure if she should be excited or continue crying.. I told her to relax, I love her very much.. Mistakes happen.. We'll get through this and one day look back and laugh about it.. I then went on to tell her how very proud I am of her for dealing with all the B.S. she has had to endure between all the different Colombian agencies and now the embassy.. She has done a amazing job..
I don't remember if I had mentioned it earlier, but for the past 3 months Bella and her daughter have been going through the hell they call the medical system of Colombia.. The same day of the interview, her daughter was getting the results of her biopsy. the results came back as inconclusive for breast cancer.. Her daughter will now be going to surgery June 5th. We had planned for Bella to come here over the Memorial day weekend.. But now we need to postpone this also..
I will be flying down to get them and bring them here.. She has never flown or been outside of Bogota.. I just went online to look the airfare, but two weeks later.. Tickets are over $230 dollars apiece more, times 5 people..
I can't wait till we are all together again.. I want to go to a nice restaurant raise a glass.. and a giant WooHoo.. everyone is healthy, We are all home here together.. And all is well.. I can't imagine AOS will be any tougher than all this..

Joe, I am praying that you and Bella get this resolved soon!
Joe, I am sorry to hear your news. Hopefully they can issue the visa tomorrow. As for Bella's daughter's surgery, I hope that they are able to come to a conclusion and that she doesn't have breast cancer.
I am hoping you can be reunited as soon as is possible and I am sure you are right; at least with AOS you will be together.

This morning Bella went to the embassy at 9.. Turned over the passports.. After hour, she was called to the window..
Bella and the twins called me all excited.. Finally, what a relief..
The strange thing that happened was the embassy kept the original birth certificates and baptismal certificates and the certified translations.. She asked to have them returned and was told it is better she go get all new documents.. Do they have any idea how difficult it was to obtain the documents to begin with.. geesh..
Thank you again for your prayers and well wishes.. We are much appreciative.. We wish everyone much success and a much easier road than we had..

This morning Bella went to the embassy at 9.. Turned over the passports.. After hour, she was called to the window..
Bella and the twins called me all excited.. Finally, what a relief..
The strange thing that happened was the embassy kept the original birth certificates and baptismal certificates and the certified translations.. She asked to have them returned and was told it is better she go get all new documents.. Do they have any idea how difficult it was to obtain the documents to begin with.. geesh..
Thank you again for your prayers and well wishes.. We are much appreciative.. We wish everyone much success and a much easier road than we had..

Congratualtions Joe & Bella! I wonder if all the originals will be in the secret package so that you'll have them for aos. I certainly hope so. Best wishes to bella's daughter!
