Just had my interview at the Stockholm embassy today, so writing down my experiences for those who are about to go there.

 

Were 2 lines at security, K-1 as others here have mentioned can use the shorter immigration interview line, They started letting people in at 8 am, once through you are asked to keep along a path up to the main building, and are ushered onto one of the windows. 

 

I was asked to provide 2 photos, my passport, my birth certificate, police certificate and my fiancés divorce decree, due to the different nature of her divorce (her ex left US and filed in another country, sweden coincidentally) my fiancé dosn't have originals, so I could only provide copies of those, I was told I'll have to get originals but I was still good for my interview. I am going to the courthouse to pick those up as of writing this.

 

Sat down maybe 20 mins to wait before getting called up to a window. Was a very relaxed interview, and I got asked these questions:

 

Can you tell me about how and when you met?

 

So you've known eachother a long time huh? (Friends since 09, started dating shortly after her divorce in 23)

 

What does your fiancé do for a living?

Do you know how much she makes?

What do you do for a living here in sweden?

 

Do either of you have kids?

 

Have either of you been married?

 

Then I was told: we are gonna need you to send us court certified copies of your Fiancées divorce decree then we are gona go ahead and approve your application.

 

Was out and calling my fiancé with the good news by 8:47.
