Consulate Review: Mumbai, India

| Embassy Review : |
My fiance stayed at Sofitel hotel (BKC) just 5 min walk to the consulate, which was very convenient. She went around 7:30 and joined the separate immigrant visa queue and let in. Then, Indian lady checked and collected the required documents (PCC, birth certificate, medical report, I-134, tax transcripts, w-2, previous marriage certificate & divorce decree for both of us. she returned the original (except for PCC, medical and I-134). she didnt want bank statement, pay stub or employment verification letter. since she was on h1-b before, they asked her if she has any paperwork; she didn't take them with her. they made a mark about it (not sure what the impact is , as of now)
after couple of hours, she got called up for interview. the officer was middle-aged american lady. she got grilled for a while (may be 15-20 questions) most of the questions are based on what is available on this site, like,
what is his name?
how did he meet you?
why do you want to get married in the USA?
is your parents coming to the wedding?
are your parents ok with wedding in the USA?
why did he got divorced? why did you get divorced?
on what visa did he go to USA?
how did he get his greencard ? (was it through marriage or work?)
was his first wife Indian?
have you been to the USA?
where did you work in the USA?
what is his job?
when and how are you planning to get married?
who is coming to the wedding?
does he have kids? have you talked to the kid? how old is s/he? (some followup questions)
what do you like about him? (some followup questions)
(officer didn't ask for photos or phone/chat log or any other documents during the interview)
then she said something like ' your visa is verified' then gave the ' visa is approved' note that had instructions about what to expect in the next week or so.
they also took her right hand finger prints. then after she left the consulate, they called her phone and told her to come back to the consulate to take left hand fingerprints as well. (strange...) she went to the same lady and the lady was very apologetic and was super nice about asking her to come back again for the fingerprints.
overall very good experience, even with lot of questions.. as long as you are prepared and able to answer the questions honestly, I think you are fine

*Notice about estimates: The estimates are based off averages of other members recent experiences
(documented in their timelines) for the same benefit/petition/application at the same filing location.
Individual results may vary as every case is not always 'average'. Past performance does not necessarily
predict future results. The 'as early as date' may change over time based on current reported processing
times from members. There have historically been cases where a benefit/petition/application processing
briefly slows down or stops and this can not be predicted. Use these dates as reference only and do not
rely on them for planning. As always you should check the
USCIS processing times to see if your application
is past due.
