Hope this helps guys

 

On the day of the interview, I decided to go there really early. I usually go to these places early to calm myself lol (medical at 3 am and Interview around 4:30 AM). My schedule for interview is at 6:45 AM J

 

There are chairs available but don’t sit right away because they will charge you 30 pesos per chair. J And don’t believe the people there that they will ask 4 copies of 2x2 pictures inside the embassy because they just asked 1 copy.

 

So at around 6 AM they asked us to fall in line and prepare our ds160 and passport. They’ve asked us to put the passport in a zip block bag and they placed a sticker with a number in my ds-160. We went to do scanning area and our stuff went into the machine. They don’t allow the cd from the medical, metal watches, bottled water, cables, chargers, food, candies and of course mobile phones. Then we waited inside for our turn on the pre-screening window. The person in the pre-screening window is a Filipino (Very meticulous). She asked for my ds-160, NBI  clearance, birth certificate, cenomar and passport.

 

Questions asked:

 

What’s your name?

 

Birthday?

 

How are you related to the petitioner?

 

Was I married before?

 

Was she married before?

 

Children?

 

Address of my fiancé?

 

My address?

 

Then she asked if I have pictures and if she can see it. When I pulled my enormous packet (2 full binders) she asked again is that for today? (I smiled sweetly and said yes she said “oh that’s ok just pull it out if the consul ask you later) Then she sent me to data entry and then followed by finger print scanning. J

 

Last step is the interview. Its quick and weird because I was standing behind the girl that is being interviewed and I heard everything. (Chismis! Lol but they met online through dating website and they’ve been together in less than a year) Anyway… back to my interview questions.

 

She greeted me good morning and asked if how was I, So I responded great and smiled. She asked for my ds-160 then she stood up and looked for my papers. She was holding a replica of what we submitted I recognized it because it was so thick hahaha!

 

Questions she asked:

 

So tell me something about your fiancé?

 

I told her the name, address, age, birthday and details about her work.

 

She asked if my fiancé was married before?

 

She asked if I’ve been married before?

 

She asked how did we meet?

 

She asked if I traveled outside the country?

 

Did I applyfor a US visa before?

 

If I have any children?

 

Do I have siblings?

 

If I feel pressured by mom to have children (she was laughing) so I said no and I laughed with her. Haha

 

She asked for the pictures. And she saw the huge packet that I have. She said “wow you're prepared thank you”. And then I showed her our pictures but she is intrigued by our first date picture then she asked me to explain what happened that day. So I did. J

 

She said what happened when my fiancé visited?

 

How many times?

 

What does she do for work?

 

She asked if I’m a nurse too then I said no. She asked for my occupation?

 

Then she asked me how did we met. And then she was typing a lot.

 

We were quiet for like 3 minutes and she was typing a lot. Then she said I am required by law to discuss this with you (its 911 and abuse). And then she said you can just wait for your visa it will be delivered to you within 5 to 10 days. Congratulations you're approved.  and thank you for coming in prepared I appreciate that J J J

 

I think that consul is one of the nice one’s there J Window 60. J

 

Because the other consul from 59 and 61 are very serious. And I can hear them because they have mics and they are bombarding the other people with questions.

 

By 8 AM I am back at the hotel. J

 

 

 

Congratulation and thank you for your information ~~ It has been quite a journey

I would say it will be more benefit if the petitioner attend for the interview then?

Base on what I saw. There are like 6 couples with their petitioner during the date of my interview and all of them got approved. I think it's the best proof of relationship

[Jing&Kuting 137]

Hi guys, 

 

I just checked the status of my visa and its showing that its been ISSUED. Hope to hear from the courier next week. 

[chauphuong 29]

Hi fellow Nov filers, 

Nov 14 here, 103 days and waiting
