meljesca · September 14, 2008

Hello fellow VJ's here's my Manila,US embassy interview experience last friday september 12,2008 at 7 a.m. I wasn't really in good condiiton as well as my son due to the shots we had during medical exam. i got fever,cough and cold as well as my son during our interview plus poor sleep. I wasn't expecting to have this things on the day of our big day. We went there as early as we can. With my father and my son. I got angry with the guard coz they didn't even accept my excuse that i have my son with me plus im not feeling well they didn't let my father in. i went inside carrying my son coz he will cry if i will let him walk, with my bag,with ethan's stuff and with 6 kilos of evidence..gosh!!! Luckily, those family who's applying for immigrant visa pitty at me and ask if i needed help so they carry my 6 kilos evidence and my son's stuff.thank God.

I got 5006 number. My son was crying and all the eyes of the applicants and workers of us embassy are on us Waited for an hour and my number flashed on screen and assigned to window 17 a very nice and accomodating lady and very considerate. My son was still crying.pre-screener let me signed the forms(DS forms) and ask for my lavi's affidavit of support,ITR,W2 ,BC of my son and mine and picture of me and my son. i wasn't interviewed instead she let me returned after few minutes coz we coudn't hear each other well.I was so ashamed with the applicants and workers there coz all they can hear is my son's voice crying and shouting and laying on the floor. I beg the guard to let my father in,since he was able to witness what my son's ability those time maybe another pitty moment, he called my father outside and let him in.ahhhhhhhh..........

Number 5006 flashed again on window 17 and there my interview with pre-screener.

* Name of fiancee?

* My name

* my age and my fiancee

* where did we met

* am i sure that Ethan is my son and why he did had registered late bc

* when was his last visit and how many times

After 10 minutes name was called for finger scanning at window 16.

After 15 minutes number flashed again at window 32..ohhh boy....i really don't know what to do coz my son keep on crying and afraid what the consul will tell me about my son. i entered the cabin window 32 a man consul around 50's. i greeted him good morning and smiled.Ethan was shouting and crying inside the cabin.I apologized at the consul and he said it's ok..We just let ethan cry until he stopped crying.

CONSUL's Questions;

The thing that make me so sad. he didn't even asked any evidence that i bring with me that 6kilos evidence thing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!ugh..........but better to be prepared than never.. then the consul said wait outside for ur name to be called. I didn't hesitate to ask him about my visa status. He said EVERYTHING IS COMPILED HERE. wait outside for your name to be called. after 3 minutes my names was called at window 37.
