All of this waiting. All of this hoping. And now............we have an interview date and we are both scared to death! So much to do before 3/24. We are both feeling overwhelmed and nervous and wondering how we are going to get everything together (He's still waiting for the passport office certificate, and it may not arrive on time to be able to submit to VFS). Eeekkkk! :unsure:

All the best for your interview nksj.

I got interview on 5th may at newdelhi,case completed on 19thmarch

Hey those who have their interview in February and March let us share our thoughts. Also after we finish our interviews, we will get back to this thread to put in our inputs so that the others can benefit.

To begin with, I haven't filled in my DS and other forms yet. Today I received my I-134 and it looks good. I guess I need to make a copy of them.
