US Immigration from Cameroon

I understand embassies are secure facilities, what personal items are allowed to be brought in for an interview? Are cell phones allowed? Thanks.

I'm waiting on a CR1, DQ date February 29. Who else here is waiting?

I was looking at some K-2 statistics in my fianc 's home country and it seems that they haven't denied any K-2 petitions in the last five years? Does having kids make things easier? We have a newborn daughter, but I'm the petitioner and she's already in the U.S. with me. Has anyone read cases where they outright deny couples with kids?

I've noticed there's been plenty of tools for other parts of the process to see what the service centers and NVC working on, but I don't really see this with the embassies for IR1 and K1 visas. Is there anyway to know where each embassy is currently as far as priority dates? It's not posted anywhere I've found.

Did we make an mistake by sending via mail priority express and uploaded our copies from medical and supporting document without USCIS completing the mailed packet.

Now not sure if we did this process correct or how it would effect our case. I hope not to confused them. Why they give option to upload documents if you don't need to?
