It was a good for pink. The consulate officers were pleasant. Only a few questions asked. They seemed quite happy to provide the pink document.

Review Topic: K3 Visa

As I was not allowed to be with my wife, this is what she later recounted to me: My wife was first in line. The VO was a very young black male... maybe in his early 20's. He spoke no Chinese, but my wife's English is good enough that she was able at first to answer his questions in English... until he spoke to quickly for her to understand. She then asked that the interview be continued in Chinese. The VO then had an English-speaking Chinese national act as translator.

He carefully looked at my passport (I was in Guangzhou with her) ... the entry and departure stamps (10 trips). He asked about the 4 trips before I had met her (only the latter 6 of the 10 trips were to visit her). Although she knew I had been to China to meet someone else who was not compatible and I broke up with several months before I met her on the internet, she told him I was a tourist, visiting several cities (perhaps this was a mistake...I had told her to be totally honest in all her responses).

He looked carefully at the 22 date-stamped photos of us together during 5 of my trips to be with her. The majority of the photos were from my 3rd trip when we actually celebrated our marriage (wedding gown, dinner for 75-80 friends and family, etc.).

He asked her the names of my 4 daughters from my first marriage. She answered flawlessly.

She gave all the required documents, including our certified, notarized wedding certificate, her police record check, my financial forms and supporting documents.

He reviewed all documents and told her that they were in order and acceptable.

He wondered how we were able to communicate if she needed a translator and could not understand him. He also seemed piqued that I could travel to China so frequently, yet have no job.

She then tried to show him a log of our 448 internet conversations by date, time and duration (usually twice a day, approx. 2 hours each conversation); my telephone bills for the prior 6 months showing 151 telephone calls; and a log of our daily internet conversations (except for the dates I was in China with her) from the date we first met on July 3, 2006 to the present. He refused to look at them.

He then gave her a blue slip on which he wrote: "We need a bit more clarity about the relation as the timing is not clear. Please have your husband hand write a statement of your first meeting. You married on your second visit? Please explain."

We overnighted the requested information the following day.

I write this two months later. Today she received her "overcome" letter and is on a bus to Guangzhou tonight. Tomorrow she will return to the Consulate and hopefully we soon have a visa.

Man was very surly, asked about four questions and trick to trick me several times to give a wrong answer. On a positive note he gave us back our photo book, minus four photos.
