It was so much more easier than I expected. Sometimes I wonder why we never did it sooner! I made my appointment at the end of May, did the first part on the 14'th of June, his name check was back in six days. Our main delay was the police report from Russia, luckily we had already applied for it and were just waiting. I was really worried about domicile, but I just gave them a bank statement from my bank account and a notarised letter that I'd be renting an apartment from my Grandmother. They accepted it and told us to pick up the visa at 2 pm! We're leaving the day after tomorrow and now I'm so nervous! My husbands never been to America - in the time we've been together we just never got a chance to go. I'll be seeing my Mother for the first time in three years!
Anyway, my experience was really good and the visa officer or whoever was really kind, understanding and helpful. I'm glad I was so lucky!
