Just wanted to let you guys know that my spouse got the K3 visa yesterday at Mumbai consulate :). It was pretty straighforward. She was just asked a couple of questions about me and our relationship like

- who is petitioning you ?

- what does your spouse do for a living ?

- where did you go for honeymoon ?

- what do you like in your spouse ?

Thats it.. Interview lasted just a couple of minutes. They didnt look at any pictures/dates/other supporting documents. Wanted to thank visa journey and all of you guys.. It has been a great help..

Be Confident and keep all your papers in order. Good Luck to those whose interviews are coming up.
