Would it matter if my fiance attend the interview with me?

Would it matter if my fiance attend the interview with me? We haven't received our NOA2 yet (not expecting it any time soon ), but we are trying to plan ahead of time. Originally, we agreed that he would go to the interview with me. But it seems that a lot of beneficiaries were able to pass the interview without their fiance having to accompany them. He only visited me once and we spent 8 days together. Is that frequency and length of visit enough?

He wanted to be with me on the interview, but I was telling him instead of using the money for the trip, we can save it for whatever we need later on. Not that I don't want to spend time with him. Heaven knows how much I miss him but I am just being practical.

Usually the USC doesnt need to go to the interview. The interviews that do need to have both people is the AOS interview and the ROC interview. ( if you get interviews for thos, not everyone ends up having an interview for them )

There is nothing wrong with that, he can go with you during your interview. I understand about the expenses, but if he feels and likes going with you just let him go. Goodluck!

This is in US Embassy Manila, right?

hi, if he has the time and wants the expense,then it's a good idea to show your support for her, and how much you are in love with her, the io will ask to see his us passport, he my want to ask your fiance questions,and yes the manila embassy allowes fiance to attend the interview,

I will let others comment whether one trip is enough with that consulate.

I attended the interview with my then fiancee and I had the impression when it was over that I didn't need to be there. We had all the required paper work and plenty of evidence, of which, all they were interested in were the photos of me with my fiancee and her family. If I wasn't there, she could have presented it on her own and I'm confident she still would have been approved. That's very sweet of you to tell him he doesn't have to go, and he probably doesn't. However, since he has only been there once, (my trip there for the interview was my 3rd visit) maybe he wants to go 1 more time before you leave. Plus, if he has time to wait for your visa to arrive, you can plan it so that you can fly back with him, which will spare you the stress of having to fly to the U.S. alone. Good Luck!

My personal opinion is that it is a good idea for him to attend the interview. The simple fact that he is there will go a long way to show the bona fide relationship to the VO. Plus if he is there then you can celebrate together afterwards. If it is an affordable expense then by all means, have him come and enjoy the time together.

hi there sis amelie... honey will be goin with me too...

Hi sis, that's a good thing. Good luck to both of us.

Thanks for the advice. I think we have all the evidence that we need. But still, I cannot help but worry because he only visited me once. Aside from the expenses, my other concern is the timeline. At his job, it's recommended that they file their leave (if it's a long vacation) a month before so that it would be most likely approved. Right now, I am trying to find out what happens after the case is in the hands of the Manila embassy. When we call them, can we ask for a schedule a month away?

Moved from K-1 Visa Process and Procedures to US Embassy and Consulate Discussion, as it relates to the interview itself and specific regional questions.

hi,

during my interview before in manila embassy i am the only one go in the interview,I am k1 visa too..My husband want to go with me in the interview but i told him much better to use that for the plane ticket of me going in the US.And can save too the money for the AOS process as its very expensive.

Dont worry about that your fiance spend only 8days for you and its only his first time visit of you..My fiance which is my husband now..he was spend only me 5days in the philippines,And its his only first visit to me..2years before we file the k1visa since he visit me and engaged.coz of the important matters that i need to process first.Its been a long time,,,But thanks God i passed the interview and im happily married to my husband now.The interview is easy..just prepare all the documents needed for interview and bring them and the proof of evidence like pics of u and ur fiance,emails,chats or etc..Im sure u will pass the interview,,Good luck
