Hi guys!

I decided to post here because I initially was under F2A and got a lot of help from all of you before we changed to IR1. My husband's interview was today and we got approved! After 2 hours of nervous waiting He called me and we are done!!!kicking.gifkicking.gifkicking.gifkicking.gif

I hope this review will be helpful to some:

Hubby's interview was in Yerevan Consulate. His interview was for 9:30, he arrived around 9 am, all prepared with tons of documents we had.

To be honest, I did not preload the I-130, just sent the basics, like 15 pictures, marriage certificate, 2 affidavits from family friends, and my own statement of relationship. We had a decent history- dated since high school, but I just sent couple of pictures pre and post wedding. During NVC stage I did not submit any evidence just what was asked by NVC.

Hubby however took skype logs with him, maybe like 1-2 from every 2 months starting in 2011 (that's when i filled), all my tickets from back and forth and passport stamps (almost twice a year I went to see him for like a month or so), ATT call logs which just showed his calls and my texts , nice photo album from 2003-2013. Anyway he was ready with updated co sponsor financial info, police certificate and copies of everything because I am paranoid tongue_ss.giftongue_ss.giftongue_ss.gif

Our main concerns was that he had TWO denied B2 visas from 6 months before our marriage. CO did address that as we predicted. CO asked whether he was planning to visit me, to which hubby honestly replied, that no he was invited to participate in a work -related activity, CO said OK. Than they asked who I live with, if I have brothers sisters, whether he remembers our wedding date, where I work or study , what my parents do, and whether we live together when I visit. That was it!!!!

I am so beyond happy that I cannot express it!!!! I wish everyone to be with their spouses soon and I know how hard it is (we waited for 5 years), but hang in thereheart.gifheart.gifheart.gif

Thank you everyone!!!!!!!!
