Review Topic: IR-1/CR-1 Visa

Arrived at 6:30am and left around 2:30pm. Everything was smooth and easy. Unfortunately we were put on AP, but that was not the Consul's fault (nor anyone elses for that matter). AP only lasted 30 days and we were informed via e-mail on a weekly basis as to the status of our AP.

After 30 days, AP was over but we needed to file form I-212 with local office. I-212 was approved in 27 days. Second Interview scheduled with Consulate to turn in Passport and copy of approved I-212. Got there at 7:00am and left at 11:30am. Very easy, very nice people and very helpful. God luck to everyone.

Review Topic: General Review


what a hassel. Two interviews for wife. Required new tax return and I-864. Wife approved. Children next. New tax return, I-864, letter from work, pay stubs , deposits, showing sufficent income. God, I make $20,000 from Social Security. Never mind the good job. Well over the required poverty level. Two interviews. Denied children. WTF ? Plane tickets bought and went to waste. My age is over 60 and wife was told verbally they wanted co-signer because of my age. Age discrimination? Anyway, wife found friend in USA to co-sign. Visas approved during 3rd interview. Never count on getting visa approved even if everything is in order. There are unwritten rules at the embassy, and they make the rules.

Review Topic: K1 Visa



My Fiance and finally finished our Interview at the Embassy on Wednesday Sept 16th, we are so happy and excited.

Just a few things to help people in the future.
1) If the Petitioner can make it, I really suggest you go for moral support of your fiance or wife, and because it will help establish relationship and should help the interviewer in the approval. I have read other people say it before just GO and I really agree, even though they say you don't need to be there, it's better than being denied.
2) Make sure all papers are in order, it's fairly straight foward and I don't really see it necessary to have a laywer unless you have a more complex case, luckily in my case my fiance is my lawyer and our case was straight foward .
3) Wear warm clothes, it's Bogota the weather is crazy and one second maybe clear and than raining, especially if your coming from another city besides Bogota and you a... read complete review

-Line # 2, you get a green sticker for Immigrant visa applicants.
-Embassy opens gate at 7 am

-
-Marriage, Birth, Baptismal,and Police Certificate, 2 pictures 5"x5", DS230, Financial evidence (AOS, 3 most recent years tax returns), your passport.
-About 8:45 they called me to a window to check my docs. (Pay attention to 4 , 29 to 32 windows)
-9:45 fingerprints
-11:00 Interview, a very sweet and nice CO smiling, just 3 questions and she said the magic words "your visa has been approved" OMG !
-I just turned and kissed ... read complete review
