Review Topic: IR-1/CR-1 Visa

The visa interview was tough but manageable if you have all your documents and information in order. I could not hear the CO very clearly through the glass window and she got a little impatient with me so insisted that I needed a translator and asked me to sit and wait some more. I did as she instructed and prayed for grace and calmness.
I was asked about my previous travels to the US, Canada and UK, my husband's divorce and kids, why i was denied entry to the US in Nov 2010 ( I showed her the statement I made to Homeland Security when i opted for voluntary withdrawal of visa) and also wanted to know why we opted to get married in the US and not Kenya. Asked to see photos of me and hubby. Also asked to see my ring...
The advise I would give is stay calm, say the truth as you know your relationship is legit and don't cook up stories....some questions were asked more than once. Also, pray for grace and favor and for calmness.
I was also called back to verify finger ... read complete review

Very pleasant people. Interview was quick and simple only a few questions, no request for evidence. As others have stated, I belive they have made a decision prior to your interview. Your interview is your chance to either verify their decision or nullify it.

Review Topic: K1 Visa

This has been an interesting journey.

My fiance was scheduled for an interview on 2/21/12 at 7.45. When he got there he waited for his number to be called. It was finally called and they told him they had not received his medical. He told them he did the medical on the 14th. the checked but could not find it.

He went outside and called the doctor office - luckily they had the confirmation and told him they would call teh consulate and provide them with it. When he went back in, they said that they had found it once they were given the confirmation number. They rescheduled him fo the 22nd at 8am.

He got there at 7am but apparently they had not given his name to the security guys. he waited till 8.30 and was finally let in. His nymber was finally called and he had the "mean" lady. She did not even ask for the affidavit of support.
She asked him;

how we met
how we communicated (she did not accept the info i had prin... read complete review

General Notes and Tips….. just sharing experiences....no particular order....

- Visa was received 8 days after interview via DHL. Nairobi Embassy does not
hand over spousal visa’s by hand, will be delivered via DHL.

- Questions asked...
What type of work does your husband do?
What is your husband’s phone number?
Why did your husband get a divorce from first marriage?
Do you have any wedding photos?
What is your husband’s birthday?
How many visits did your husband make to Kenya to visit you?
May I see your husband’s passport?
How do you and your husband communicate?
Where do you currently live?


- We stayed at the Sandton Palace hotel in Nairobi. Cost 3600 shillings per
day for Kenyan citizens.

Review Topic: Waiver/Admin Review

the Nairobi embassy is the worst ever.
The USCIS approved our petition in the US, but denied finacee,
turned in pics, flights back and forth to kenya, paid all fees, letters from family memebers, pics of us with all our family, vacations pics in africa, good affidavit of support, letter from my govt job in the us, stable residency in the US for ten years where he and I will live and still got a no. They ask for finacee to come back over and over again, it was ridiculous.
They said based on the fact fianace had been here for school but did not finish and went back home and now wants to come back as a finacee looks funny to them We met here in the US and even have pics of the two of us here, but still no.
the case in adminstrative review.
