Was this on Thursday or Friday? I keep hearing people mid-late last week had some pretty quick interviews. Maybe they knew they were backlogged with interviews from the closing last week and blew through the easier cases. Congrats!

I had my interview 3 days ago and l had no problem with my scanned affidavit of support. Yehey! :) Only the pre-screener Filipina consul asked my w2, 1040 and affidavit of support then gave it back to me. She only got my nbi, bpi receipt, cenomar and birth certificate. My final interview with the consul went went. He didn't bother to see my photo album and my supporting documents; only asked me 4 basic questions, after that he said have a nice day ahead ma'am because you are now approved! Congratulations! To my surprise l said huh? Wow! That's all sir??? Lol and he started laughing at me, yes! Why you want more questions? I replied, no sir! Thank you and may God bless you! And he smiled at me. :) :) :) the interview took only in LESS THAN ONE MINUTE! That was a fast interview approval! Due to my excitement, I wanted to give a hug to the CO but l couldn't hahaha!

Congrats!! :dancing:

Most interviews go very quickly, it is all about how you present yourself when answering questions. Majority of interviews are 3-5 minutes.

Next, after your get your visa, off to CFO for the sticker and .... Welcome to America!

Oo0opps! I meant to say *my interview with the CO went well. ;)

@lobo1369 thank you and you too congrats in advance! :)

@manilaraf it was thursday, thanks!

@hank thank you always hank! :) other windows for the final interview took them more than 5 minutes ayayay! I just feel so blessed for an answered prayer and got so lucky because the CO was really nice and seems to be always in a hurry to finish the entire interview. I won't forget the way he laughed and smiled at me lol. Oh btw, during my oath taking there l met this old lady (maybe in her 50's and also a k1 applicant), she got emotional while doing her oath hehe. And the american consul asked her, why are you crying ma'am? And she answered, nothing ma'am tears of joy l'm just happy right now. The american consul was touched and said, aaaawwww... :)
