Hi, all

I already have an interview day for September 10, 2012, I was going through the possible questions they ask during the interview, and they seem pretty easy and straight forward; However, there is one that caught my attention :

Why you did not marry here in Cuba, where your families can attend to the ceremony?


I am not sure what would I reply to this question, since our initial plan was to get marry in Cuba but I was advised that doing that would take longer for my fiance to get a visa

any advise or suggestions will be greatly appreciated :help:

Thank You & Good Luck to everyone that is going through this journey!!!!!

If that was the (misinformed) reason, state that. It's not illegal to want your fiance with you in the US asap.

Best of luck with the big day


the best thing is to keep calm... don't look like you are about to freak out in panic
smile from time to time... and be honest..

My interview was simple, quick and easy...

I honestly believe it was all really about body language.. and how you were able to respond...

if you have nothing to hide it will be a breeze!

I was asked this question about being married in Cuba in our interview in Havana. (We were interviewed separately). I answered honestly that it was expensive for an American citizen to marry in Cuba, and so therefore it was never an option.

The honest answer must have worked because he is here now and we have been married since February!

Do answer everything honestly - both of you! The one question that really worried me was did he know my children and why not? (I was interviewed first.) What if they don't like him? We both answered this in similar ways - not the same, but both answered honestly, so that is when she said to him "you are approved."!
