facetoface

Hello everyone!
 
Wanted to give everyone an update. 
 
After I was provided a B1/B2 visa, I was able to travel to the sates. Went for a global business meeting which lasted 5 days. Everything was perfect, in fact I was alotted with a 6 month stamp at entry.
 
I was only asked by the immigration officer the following:
 
1. Purpose of my trip
2. What company I worked for
3. What my company name meant
 
 Being back home now, it´s a wonderful feeling to know that big things can be done telling the truth. 
 
Greetings to all from chilly Bogotá!

I think your experience will help alot of others, and it reinforces the need to be honest.  

Hi EmilyW,
 
Well I was completely honest about the entire situation, so several questions she asked me who was still living in the US and I told her that my bother was living there and she said, "I assume he´s still undocumented", I said yes and she simply moved forward with more questions regarding my intentions in the US and stability here.
 
I was a very minute part of the interview, and I felt like it wasn`t that big of a factor in my case.
 
Hope this helps.

Wanted to share with everyone that I had my biometrics taken yesterday and my interview with the cosnsul today, finally after an extensive 40 minute interview... 
 
MY VISA WAS APRROVED!
 
Thank you everyone for you input!
 
Warm regards from Colombia!
