Oh my Dear God, I hope not!!! I will go crazy. You obviously remained cool and calm and got things done quicklY. I am proud of you. What time did you end up getting out of the embassy? Interview was at 10 and how long did it all take?

Actually I got really nervous and I entered the consular room shaking lol

including the running and translating the document it took an hour I finished at 11:00 am

Good luck with your interview!

Thank you but I'm done with interview and I got approved :D

Awesome! 1 Hour with even running out for a translation is incredible. I am amazed. and I hope for a quick interview for my husband and me in Egypt. I hope to hear from the embassy this month! They have been making spouse visas wait 6 months for their interviews but now they are at about a 4 month wait. So, I am hoping it will be a 3 month wait and we get an interview mid January!!!!

And it will be ok with me if they schedule it today. LOL!!

Take Care yuyu and good luck in everything.

May 24, 2011 NOA1
