Tell me about it. I was expecting to be there for at least 4 hours.

What is more shoking, FedEx had her passport in less then 24 hours. I wonder if USCIS or NVC asked consulate to expedite our case.

That's fast! They must be slow at the consulate or maybe they want to get your fiancee out of Ukraine real bad. Be careful. :whistle:

Aren't you glad you went to the interview though? Who wants to miss out on the "visa received" celebration? :no:

Absolutley. It makes you feel great known you are there for her and see that happy face when she comes out holding a pink slip...priceless ;)

"maybe they want to get your fiancee out of Ukraine real bad".
