Our original plan was that he will gonna be with me on my interview. However, he was just here last March and coming here requires alot of money. Do you think I am gonna be fine if I come alone in my interview? Or we just gonna get a later date instead, so he can save some money? Who among you came alone in their interview and got approved?

There's no stigma at the embassy if you go alone. In fact if your Fiancee were there, they most likely would not want to speak to him, wanting to know your answers to each question. I read where some fiances were asked to leave the room. There are also a great many people who go by themselves to these interviews. I will not be able to be there for Riza's interview, so she will be going alone.

I went on my interview alone and I did fine in my interview.Don't worry, you'll do fine.What is important is you can prove a bonafide relationship.

I went to my interview by myself and i did fine, the Consular officer didn't gave me a hard time at all, i got approved and got my Visa. You'll be fine if you go alone just be prepared and be confident. Goodluck!

I am really nervous in the idea of being alone in my interview, but your answers somehow calms me thank you. And besides we need to really save money for our wedding... sigh

don't worry about it. my SO went alone & was approved w/ no problem. the embassy understands the cost of travel & people not being able to get time off work. just have your paperwork done & try to be calm, you'll be fine. goodluck!

By the way, how many times were you able to visit your fiancee prior to her interview? Patrick visited me twice; October 2007 and last March of this year. It doesn't matter how many times right, for as long as he came here to see me in person and we have all the documents that we need?

with your first concern of going by yourself during the interview, you'll be fine..I did the same and I was approved right away. Anyhow, my husband who is then my fiance' visited me only once but we've known each other 2 1/2 years already before the interview. As much as he would like to go back and forth, it would costs a lot of $$$...

You will do just fine. The secret is to be confident and have all the required documents ready. I was by myself and didn't have a problem.Goodluck!!

complete documents and bonifide relationship is enough to get approved w/ or w/out ur SO... i went alone and i was approved... my husband (then fiance) visited me 3 times and spend 2 weeks per visit (visited me every 3 months)... alhtough my friend's fiance back then (they're married now btw)just visited her once and only spent 4 days in phil, but she got approved nonetheless knowing she's got a complete documents and proved that they have a true and bonifide relationship regardless the numbers of visit... God bless!!! and you can do it!!!

I went to my interview alone and did fine as well. As long as your documents and evidences are complete, you will be fine.

You'll be fine at the interview with plenty of evidence. As far as money goes, don't forget about the over $1,000 you will need for adjustment of status after the wedding!

Lots of people go all by themselves.

You will be just fine. Good luck!
