We had our interview on Monday in Kingston, Jamaica. There is a very HIGH volume of visa applicants but they did a great job at keeping the flow going. Our appointment was for 9am and we arrived at 7:30. Wasnt seated in the interview area until 9:30 (just from the volume of people there). We were called up and provided the requested documents then were seated. We were the last people to be interviewed! By this time, some of the stress had gone away. At 11:30am, we were called up. The Consulate immediately thanked me numerous times for coming. I was the only petitioner that day that joined their fiance/spouse. He asked when and how we met, did we keep in contact and if he had kids,been married or been off the island. He then asked my fiance to have a seat and asked me about some items on my credit report. After that, he smiled and said "Your visa is approved!". Sweetest words Ive ever heard! I told the Consulate that I was hoping that my fiance could fly back to the states with me on Ja... read complete review

I arrive at the consulate 9:15 am on June 26, 2015. check in at the gate and on the inside. I was given a number which and i had to wait for about 2 hrs then i was called to do my finger print and submit my document. I waited for 30 minutes i was called to do the interview. To my surprise i found out that i was a victim of identify theft. The interviewer ask me some question about my mother and father, which i answer promptly, then ask me question pertaining to my fiance. i was given a 221 form where i have to submit a photo ID from year 2000. overall the interviewer was quite understanding and generous.

So my interview was 8 am but I reached there about 7:30. I couldn't believe the number of people there looking visitors visa but I the out door agents were very quick and efficient with checking on the documents to ensure completion. In no time I was through security and unto the compound for another lineup to enter the main building. At this time a security personnel came as asked that everyone applying for an immigrant visa or are being filed for should come to the front of the line. In no time my appointment letter was checked and given a number. We were asked to sit on the right side of the embassy which is an areas specifically arranged for immigrant visas and we were seated unlike the other side applying for visitor visas. They called our numbers based on the time of your interviews. There were about 30 people waiting to be interviewed who shared similar interview times with me. They called my number like minutes to 9 to do the finger prints and to submit the civil docs and the w... read complete review

My husband interviewed on September 11,2015 and was given a 221g for prior arrest in the US while he was here on a visa in 2008. He was on administrative processing until December 11, 2015.I emailed the Kingston embassy twice who did respond to me in a very timely manner with a nice email with little hope. I involved the Congress person in my area who did email them on the tenth. Surprisingly they approved him the next day. Although they finally began status updates daily after my second email and telling them that 60 days had now past, I feel that it was really the congressional inquiry that pushed the decision a little faster. So to you that wait, don't assume that your paper work is being worked on if certain times have passed. Get proactive and get your state officials involved if necessary.
