Perhaps I'm speaking out of turn but it is not meant that way. I think that it is probably an error on the website saying they are working on January 2014. People have phoned them and been told they a

@kmurcia Congratulations!! My husband and I also just got a interview date, December 9th in Colombia too! Looks like Bogota was scheduling today! Best of luck

thanks!!

I have a question, do you now how long does it take to get their passports back after the interview?

some say a couple days but I'm not really sure, I'm just trying to figure out our holidays here in the states.

@kmurcia I'm not sure. I remember reading that it could take around 1-2 weeks for Colombia, depending where you are getting it sent to (my husband lives in Cartagena). I'm trying to figure that out too....I think we're not going to buy any tickets until he has the visa in hand in case there are any delays...

Good Morning everyone!

Congrats to everyone on their CC's, Interview dates, and visa approvals thus far...

Want to share that my wife's visa is approved!! Super exicted my wife will be here before Christmas!!

She had an interview date of Nov. 13th in Mumbai at 730am and was done by 930am.

The interview only took 5-10min. They asked 6 questions.

1. Where does your husband live?

2. Who else does he live with?

3. How did you meet?

4. Was he working all of 2014?

5. How many years has he been working at this profession? (since I was only in this profession for 5 years they asked about previous profession)

6. What was his previous profession?

They didnt even look at the photo album. Each case is different, so I would definitely prepare and take all the documents and photo albums in case they ask...

They said the visa would arrive in 4 days.

It seems soon all the Feb fliers will be home with their loved ones!

Have a great weekend!!

How many more February filers still going through the various stages? I urge all that have received visa approvals to continue praying for our fellow February filers so they too can receive their visa approvals soon and have their spouses home with them for the holidays
