Hello Everyone,

We had our interview on July 14, 2009 at 7:00 am. We arrived at 5:20 am and they open the doors at 6:00 am. Shortly after we were inside we were called for the Pre-screening interview with a filipino man. That went smooth. He asked a few questions, I can't remember them all but this is the questions I can remember.

When is my birthday?

When did we meet?

What year did we meet?

where did we meet?

My answer was internet, so he asked what website?

When did we get married?

How many times did your husband visit you?

He asked me for my Birth certificate, marriage certificate, Cemar, NBI, and then he asked for support, (bank statements, job letter, IRS Transcript, bank letter), he asked for marraige pictures and I gave him all the pictures I had. he asked for proof of bonafide marriage so we gave him tickets, boarding passes, and a copy of our call logs. We used Magic jack, PLDT, Smart buddy cards, and phone bills from my husband showing direct calls to my phone number.

He said to sit back and wait to be called by the consul for the final interview.

It took about 1 hour and they called us.

We went to window 28. The consul was very nice and fast.

He asked us only a few questions.

When is my birthday?

where did you meet?

what website?

how many times my husband visit me?

when do we plan to go to usa?

he asked me in Tagalog if i was married before i meet my husband?

If we have any children together?

I was surprised that he asked me how the staff in St. Luke treated me during my medical.

He said YOUR VISA IS APPROVED!

That was 8:45 am.

We thank him for the quick interview and went back out to window 37 to get the pink slip. then we went to the cashier to pay for the delivery of the visa.

We left the Embassy at exactly 9:00 am. We were very happy and excited.

We thank God for the smooth process at the Embassy on our interview day.

We thank all of you here and all of Visa Journey for the valuable information and suppport.

I hope this will help those who have their upcoming interviews.

God bless
