Yes for sure......just nothing about wedding. Your Embassy is not a hard one but don't need to take chances .. You have plenty of evidences.

I just mailed my K-1 packet four days ago, I'm stressing out too. Looking at timelines it looks like K-1's out of Rio De Janeiro in Brazil are moving pretty quickly, I'm headed down there April 22 and so need to start the next step......preparing for the interview, any tips are appreciated.

I have a bank appt. for the I-134, and when I am in Brazil we will get the Police Certificates, he has passport and photos already. We have a solid case, lots of evidence, met in person originally, several visits to see him there. We have his Birth Certificate, he has never been married before.

I know to write an updated letter of intent, of continuing support.....I'm excited you have your interview...and will look forward to hearing how it goes.

Went really well thank you! The interview was literally 10 mins. The interviewer was really friendly. Asked when we met, how we met, have i met his family and what does he do for a living. They didn't say an outright yes or no but that everything looks good and don't see any issues and that i have to wait a few days for an email with further instructions. Saw today that 2 of our status' say "administrative processing" and one says "ready" so i figure the kids are in administrative processing, whatever that means.
