When Florence picked up packet 3 and 4 in June, the interview was scheduled for January 2012. We were disappointed by the long wait but at least we had a date. On July 28, Florence got a call from the embassy informing her that the interview was moved up to August 24. I received an e-mail from the embassy confirming this. Very nice. We had to scramble to gather the documents and get her medical exam but she was ready on time. The CO was polite and professional. Her documents included 10 photos, 10 months of phone bills showing lots of calls, three chat sessions, 2 years tax transcripts, bank letter, my divorce decree and all the required forms and other docs. The CO asked for more pictures from my first visit in Nov 2010. Fortunately, she had printed some on her own so she produced them. The CO said all our paperwork was in order and that he believed the relationship was genuine. Approved! He gave her a blue slip with a visa pickup date next month. Florence told me she was very worried because most people were denied that day. I can't wait to see her.

The Visa Journey community was a great help during this process. Thanks
