I was nervous out of my mind...Around 12 the place was empty just me and another lady. By this time i took notice of every thing.,.yellow slip means approved and i can see them walk past the glass to sched dhl..green slip denied..blue slip needs more info/docs. around 12:30 i saw him walk past the glass going to dhl with a smile on his face..he was the last one!!! Be prepared to stay for a few hrs. he said they didnt ask him much because i gave them more than what was required. the phone log alone from july was like 150 pgs. anyway he did say he was glad he got a blk lady with dreads b/c there was a white man grilling people for 20 mins while his interview only took 5-8 mins. they asked how we met, how much time i been back, if he met my kids and where i work. they didnt lo... read complete review

Review Topic: IR-2 Visa

So initial Appointment: January 6th
DNA Test was done: February 2nd
2nd interview: March 25th (even though initially it was scheduled for MAY but they contacted me and informed me of an earlier slot)
** On second interview I was told they were unable to issues the visa as my dad's Green Card has expired**javascript:emoticon('')

Dad was stuck in Jamaica based on not realizing the card had expired (all in the process of waiting to accompany me back to the states >>> oh well) - anyhoo my petitioner (STEP-MOM) contacted the Embassy and I was given an appointment..

3rd Appointment: August 13th to take in copy of dad's drivers license and copy of stamp in his passport after he went back to the states. And also a new police record.
I was then told I could not be issued the visa as my step mom's salary doesn't cover me anymore. javascript:emoticon('')
So I need to submit a copy of her most recen... read complete review

Review Topic: IR-1/CR-1 Visa

Ok, so here's the skinny.

I am writing this on behalf of my wife and daughter who were approved for CR1 and IR2 visas respectfully.

We had lived together in the Cayman Islands for over a year. They are Honduran nationals. We were married for over a year as well in a Cayman civil ceremony. I was told initially that a direct consular filing was possible, but unlikely to be approved. The embassy told me that it would be in my best interest to re domicile myself in the states first and then apply. So that's what I did. I started the process in February of this year.

They were approved with conditions that I provide an additional joint sponsor for our daughter who is 8 years old. A couple of things wrong with this. First, according to US law, a person who is eligible for a visa that will automatically make them a United States Citizen upon arrival in the country doesn't even need an I-864 from me let alone a joint-sponsor. My wife on t... read complete review

Review Topic: IR-1/CR-1 Visa

Arrived at 7:15 a.m. for 7:30 interview, went through security with my husband and stepson. Initially I was allowed into the interview area with them but when the staff discovered I was the petitioner, I was asked to wait in the courtyard. After 4 long hours outside, my husband and stepson came out approved. Questions asked (not in order asked but as he can remember them):

1. When and how did we met?
2. How many times did I visit?
3. He was asked to identify people in our wedding album.
4. Asked for copies of my passport pages (I gave him my passport just in case), so they looked through it.
5. Since we met while I was on vacation with his sister, was it his sister's idea that we hook date? How did his sister get her visa?
6. Does he have any other family members in the states?
7. Where do I work? Is it a hospital or outpatient clinic?
8. What airline do I usually fly in on and if my flights are direct?
9. How much... read complete review

Review Topic: IR-1/CR-1 Visa

To God be the glory, great things He hath done. My husband and 2 kids had their appointment in Kingston today @ 7am. They arrived at 6:30am and told me he will turn in his phone to a vendor nearby for $100 so I wont hear from him till it was over. This is his account:

They got a # and sat down. He was the first one called at the preliminary window asked for all 3 of them birth certificates, passports, and ask who was petitioning for them. Done.

Within less than an hour, his name was called. She looked pleasant, smiling and IO asked him:

1. Where and how did you meet?
2. How do you know the relative that introduced you?
3. Where does she work?
4. When did you get engaged and when married? (She was very impressed that it was a public engagement in our church back home.) She was smiling and asked to see wedding photos.

Hubby showed them our wedding album. He turned the pages as she looked pleased. She "ok'... read complete review
