approved but confused!

[marielac 7]

i recieved my noa2 after 5 months of waiting, but now im confused after reading some topics. im the us citizen, my fiance lives in honduras, hes the beneficiary. i always thought i had to go to an interview, as well as him...but ive been reading that its the person who gets the visa that has the interview. is this correct? if i do not have an interview, what else do i do then?

also, would there be a way to know when he receives packet 3? we put the address of a friend of his since he lives in the edge of town and deliveries get lost there. id have to tell him to go pick up his mail, since the friend probably wont...

thanks!

It would pay to check the consulate website for where he is having the interview just to check as some countries are a little different but just the beneficiary needs to attend the interview. You will also find there a list of what packet 3 contains and what is needed for the interview. You can then work on what you need to provide. You should also send a copy of whatever you supplied for the initial I-129F petition so he knows what information they already have.

Only the person that has interview has to be at the consulate. However, by being you there at the consulate during interview with your fiancee, it is obvious to show the seriousness of the relationship for the CO. Depending on your embassy at Honduras, your packet will be available in 2-4 weeks to be picked up or sent to your fiancee's address. You can email to your embassy to change the beneficiaries address.

Good Luck

It is not mandatory for the petitionary (you) to be there the day of the interview. In any US embassy the citizen can enter just by showing up their passport. But, being there gives your fiance more confidence and if by any chance the CO ask to make you some questions you may enter. In my personal case my husband was allowed to enter with me in the interview (and I felt so relief ).Obviosuly every case is different. And I guess it also depends if you can afford a plane ticket to travel and its expenses, work permit, etc.....
