At exactly 6:15am we started to move to go inside the embassy..

here's the sequence of steps:

1 The Guard inspected my appointment letter and inspect my ID's (i have 2 the PRC and Postal)

2.Then when inside there's a lady who's checking again the appointment letter and ID's and said to me 'GO to the THIRD DOOR"

3. I go inside the Third door and they check my things (NO CELLPHONE, ELECTRONICS GADGETS, USB, FOOD or else you will be rescheduled (but candy is allowed). then i opened the next door.

4.I GO in the Window says "IMMIGRANTS AND K1 visa" They Checked My appointment letter again and gave me my NUMBER which is 7000 and checked my DS FORMS if COMPLETE and they Staple it' and for me the staff there said my Forms are well organized" and i said thank you to them and they said Go to the 2nd door and drop your appointment letter in WINDOW 39"

5.I GO Inside and drop my appointment letter in window 39 and take a seat. And patiently looking at the que board to know what window will i supposed to go "Then my number appear and i Go to the Window 38

6. in WINDOW 38, a Filipino woman checked again my DS forms' and take them to attached to my file and again i take a seat

7.In window 41 , an Chinese american girl interview me "what is my name and my birthday" and then BIometrics done and take a seat again.

Since we have a Co- sponsor which is my uncle, He was shouting because he insisted that my uncle is the one who introduced my fiance to me which is not!!! and ill already shouted him also because he was so rude and He throw my picture to me and said take a seat' I was so nervous that time and i almost think that im going to be denied.

9. In window 68, A Black american Consul interviewed me' in spite of im so nervous because of what happen earlier " still im smiling at him" then I take an oath and he start questioning me like

"what is your name?

Congratulations! We are just on the 4th month of waiting and cannot wait til we get approved as well. That's also my problem.. I'm a nurse as well, but not really my intention why I'm going to the States. It's just a circumstance. Hope mine's push through as well.
