We got approved...I think! Strange, I know...well, here is the experience in a nutshell.
First of all, some advice that you may not yet have seen:
1. If you have the US fiance(e) with you, he/she should bring his/her passport AND drivers license.
2. If you have the US fiance(e) with you, leave all prohibited materials with him/her (cell phones, electronics, cigarettes, etc.). A US Citizen is permitted to leave these at the entrance and pick them up when leaving.
3. If you DO NOT have your US fiance(e) with you, leave all prohibited materials at home (cell phone, electronics, cigarettes, lighters, etc.). There will be no where for you to leave them and retrieve them when you exit.
4. Fill out EVERY BOX OR LINE IN EVERY IMMIGRATION FORM, even if you have to write "N/A" or "NONE" or "SEE ATTACHMENT" a thousand times. Write it in with a pen after printing them if you have to. This is NOT what some of the example for... read complete review

Still being held at AP]) because I’d like to do this as calmly and objectively as possible (at least try to be), and of course, avoid further possible “delays” that might arise from me speaking up.
Short story: My fiancé, Christopher, was here for my interview and we showed up at the Manila US Embassy New Office Annex Building (NOX1) and was neither denied nor approved. I (the Beneficiary) was belittled by Consular Officer. They kept my passport and we got a 221(g) sheet asking for more financial documentation from him. Denied co-sponsorship, he's graduating soon.
EDIT: We sent his updated employment letter, job offer; He's past the 100% poverty guidelines and barely short of 125% but wh... read complete review
