Our interview went well yesterday. I attended with my husband and they asked him just a few basic questions in the interview part: How, when, and where did you meet? What language did you speak to

Hi Dwheels..

I had my interview today in Lagos. It went very well.. I answered all the questions the CO asked me to his satisfaction.

We even were talking and smiling as if we knew each other before.

When he was done, he said he gave me back my birth and marriage certificates.

He kept my passport and asked to also keep the few pages (20) facebook chat I printed. He then said that I should give them a week or two to verify.

He didn't give me any 221g form because he said he got all he needed and doesn't need anymore documents.

That they will contact me.

Is this normal? Has anybody gone through this before and if so, how long does it take?

Thanks

Well first don;t worry. Not exactly normal but it does happen. The CO might be new or not that experience or may not had enough time to check out everything. Hopefully it won't take long. So give them the space in time and you will get Visa.

Good thing is they kept Passport I would have been more concerned if it was given back. I think the embassies are just being more thorough with so much wahala happening here and i don't mean terrorism.

Congratulations it is well. :goofy:

Recently I noticed some of the Vjs members asked if it's normal if the consul kept some photos or chat prints. Let me share my experience at the interview related to this issue

The interview went very smooth and perfect. We even made some jokes. And at the end the consul didn't say wether I am approved or not. He just told me to have a seat and I will be called again.

When I was called again, I was asked to go pay for the flyway bill. And I was given the original civilian papers only but they kept all the original we sent to the uscis (about 30 photos and 45 papers evidences of daily calls and 2 original police certificates) and they kept my passport.

After I paid and came back to give them the receipt, I asked if I am approved the answer was: God welling !!

After 9 days I received the visa in hand and didn't get any of those papers they kept.

My point is: as long as the interview went smooth and well, they kept the passport and not given the g221, don't worry even if they kept some of the photos or any other papers. Since your relationship is real and the evidences( photos and other chat prints ) are real, there's nothing to worry about.

I hope you all who have cc, will get interview very soon and who are waiting for the interview will be approved and you all be with your loved partners very soon and enjoy life together
