Well, like all of my fellow VJ'ers it's been a long, stressful haul!
Like the other reviews have stated, the worst part is anxiety and fear of the unknown. I was also bringing my 2 children which made it slightly more stressful. The security guards at the front door are no joke....do not bring a bag, purse, phone etc....people were turned away.
Be over prepared with documents, mine took nearly 30 minutes to sort at the first window. For those immigrating with children, have a rock solid custody order, they read my entire order. My fiancé was with me, calming me the entire way, it was a blessing having him there.
The interview itself was more a "chat":
When did you first meet
Where did you meet
How have you stayed in contact
After reviewing our very large file, he handed a letter through the slot.....and here came the tears, I was so overwhelmed with joy I lost it. The officer said "I'm sorry I didn't mean to make you cry" as his eyes welled up with tears himself from behind the glass, I regained composure and thanked him. I felt silly, but raw motions came pouring out. He explained the passport return process which I heard nothing more than his voice. My fiancé thankfully listened for me. I tried to keep calm, running over to the children to let them know "we got the approval"!!
A very good experience, nothing to worry about, speaking from the gal that hasn't slept in 2 days.
Thanks for all the advice, good luck to everyone, if you have any questions let me know.
