As long as you have consumated the marriage and have pictures of ruksathi you should be fine. However, you living in Pakistan for over 6 months, they might ask you for a domicile. There are others on here who will elaborate on this. Also, you are definitely allowed to accompany your husband to the interview, but please note that you being the USC spouse, will be asked most of the questions! Be prepared and don't get nervous, there is no requirement for you to know the joint sponsor's biography, he is your dad's friend and and that's good enough, although you should know his name and what he does. For the question what date to tell them of your marriage, did you do another nikkah after the telephonic one? If not, then obviously you will state the same date as of when you did the telephonic Nikkah!
Keep in mind that 99.9% of male applicants get AP after the interview, which is normal for Islamabad embassy. If all's ok, most AP will last around 3 months but this is the million dollar question, if not; then how many months or years!! Take care and all the best!!

Thanks and Best of Luck buddy.

amjadasn,

Waiting for EAbbas,Soccer,salmankhan,carolynhotstuff,Mohsin to get their Visas in the next 1 week Inshallah! Our prayers are with you...

You can say this is a ridiculous post because your loved one is not from Pakistan. Pakistani's can spend years in AP. I know a couple that spent 4 years in AP and the result was the embassy said their K-1 Petition had expired. My own husband has so far sent 20 months in AP. The OP asks a good question. What would happen if the government of Pakistan put pressure on the United States to streamline AP for Pakistani's? Our government sends billions of dollars to Pakistan every year and as long as the money is flowing immigration problems to the United States is the last thing on the minds of those in power in Pakistan.
The American citizen that loves a Pakistani also suffers. The waiting is so hard I don't have words to describe it. It's the not knowing that gets to you. The embassy and the DOS won't tell you anything except that your case is in AP and they can still deny the visa even after waiting months or years.
