I have applied for a B2 visa and have that interview next week. Have a pending I-130 at NSC. I know chances are very small of getting a B2 visa but I will try anything to be able to visit my husband (especially since we just got a new house and I'm dying to see it in real life!)

How come your visa application's taking so long, is it stuck at review or AP or something? Your chances of a B2 visa may depend on the reason for the delay. Being able to visit during the visa process is unfortunately very difficult unless you're from a VWP program.

Hope you get it. Might be easier for you since you're from a VWP, even though you can't travel on it. I'm actually over in the US visiting my husband right now. Wish I could stay longer than two weeks but have to get back to work. ?

I'll keep my fingers crossed for the both of you.

Do you think so, even though my ESTA was cancelled? Well, there's no way of knowing unless I try and hope for the best. I have a letter from my boss and an appointment letter for dental surgery to show evidence of returning home. I'm asking to see my husband for a total of ten days.

Thank you, friend! I hope you have had a fantastic time with your love and I'm sorry you have to leave :/

My husband has no problems getting his B2 visa last Summer at the US Embassy in Mexico City. He proved his reason for going, was honest about the other CR-1 process and they approved it. Make sure to bring proof of everything just in case they ask, but it's definitely possible.

Also, when you enter customs in US, make sure you have proof of your round trip ticket. They did ask him for that when he came.

Good luck!

You are from Sweden, can you not freely enter USA with out visa o.O I am confused.

I travel to Europe free on my US passport, how come Europeans cannot do the same ?

I have applied for a B2 visa and have that interview next week. Have a pending I-130 at NSC. I know chances are very small of getting a B2 visa but I will try anything to be able to visit my husband (especially since we just got a new house and I'm dying to see it in real life!)
