I got back again to the security check they let me in the embassy, I went to the reception window she gave me number 3 and asked me to go to window #6 they took my passport and civil records over there asked me few questions from DS-230 about my job and my husband and previous marriages we were both single and this is our first marriage she asked for the marriage contract i had that but not translated she told me go out side the embassy there is a translator over there she kept my passport in so i went out running and i had the contract translated in 15 mins then got back in to the security check again :bonk: lol

then went back to window 6 and provided the certificate she asked me to have a seat till i hear my name called.

I waited for 10 mins then they called my name and asked me to head to room #7, I went in the consular was a very nice lady I was very nervous and shaking cause I had to go in and out for 2 times she asked me to stand up and I took the oath then she took my finger prints and told me to have a seat

She asked me how i met my husband i said on facebook she said no tell me the whole story lol so i told her our story, she asked me about his work, where does he live, when did we get engaged and when did we get married she asked me if i have any pictures of engagement and wedding i had about 200 i started showing it to her she asked me which picture is your favorite i showed her the picture

I sent marriage contract to NVC and they didn't send me RFE so I thought I'm good to go but they told me they want the certificate not the contract at the embassy

At POE my wife, in casual conversation during entry of her data into their computer system, was asked several times when she was married. I guess they are trying to make sure at POE one last time - remember marraige date, engagement date and any other dates (honeymoon or birth dates) that are mentioned in any of your forms (I-130 & DS-230).
