My interview was on 07/27/2017 at 8.30. I arrived there at 8.00 and we had to wait in a queue. One by one was alowed to enter. Neither the petitioners nor any family member was allow in with the applicants.
I enter inside firstly had to go through the security check. No envolopes, folders, mobile or purses are alowed inside. All these items are kept by the guards. Once I was inside we had to first go to window number 01 and had in our documents that the lady asks to provide. Then you are asked to sit down till your name is called out. After about an hour and half I was called to go to window number 03. This was where my interview was conducted.
The lady aske me few questions:
1. When did you get married?
2. How did you meet him?
3. Love or Arrange?
4. What does he do in states?
5. Who does he live with?
6. Is this your and his first marriage?
7. Have you ever been to the states?
The whole time she was talking to me she was typing in her computer. Then she asked me to show her some pictures of us. She just went through them quickly and handed it back to me.
Then she tells me that you have a problem with your passport, our system does not allow to read it due to the FNU. My heart just sunk there I was so confused I didn't know what was going on. She said that they can not stamp my visa because of that. I hold an Indian passport but been living in Tanzania since I was 6years old. She told me don't worry this happens with many people and they just get it changed. She asked me to go correct my name and get back whenever I am ready. She gave me a written letter. She kept all my original and photocopied docs with her.
After I came out from there I went to the Indian embassy and handed them the letter and asked them to help me out and they told me there is nothing they can do about it. This FNU is a serious Nightmare.
I didn't give up. I went to the Indian embassy the next day. I requested them to help me out with my situation. And they told me the only way was to re-issue my passport. I went a head with that. It normal Takes 30 days to get a new passport but express takes 15days.
On 07/31 I went to the consulate with my receipt and told them the whole situation. They told me it's okay whenever you have ur passport come with it we will do the needful. I then asked them how long will after I hand in my passport will I receive my visa they said you bring in on Monday and you will get it by Friday.
Now here we go again with the Waiting... it just doesn't end

Hi Guys,
My name is ragini, I am excited to inform you all that i got approved today (05/29/17), for my K-1 VISA. I am from Tanzania and my Fiancee resides in California and we have been staying in Dubai since past six months as we started the process for k1-visa from Abu Dhabi. We applied the k1 visa on the 16th, December 2016 and it took roughly 5 months to get approved. When my documents were approved from the USCIS, I got the email for the confirmation and attachment of three letters which described the time and date of the interview, documents required as well as the medical/vaccination information.
My Interview date was 05/29/2017 which is today, and the time given was 8:00am of which i decided to reach there by 7:00am (and i am glad i did that as the queue was long). As soon as i reached at the embassy there was a long queue of people standing outside at the counter showing their passport and confirmation letter/appointment letter to go inside the embassy. My fiancee was with me and he had his us passport too but he was not allowed to go in with me. After showing the passport and confirmation letter i went inside for the second step SECURITY CHECKIN, you are not allowed to carry and bags or electronic devices.
After the security check up, i had to wait until i was told to go in the other office which is the second building. As soon as i was called i went in and had to show my passport and appointment letter and was given a token number & was told to sit and wait until my name was called upon. i was called after 10 mins to the front counter where i had to show all the original and photocopies of some specific documents. (a video will be posted tomorrow on (raginisexoticdesigns) youtube showing the whole process and documents required). As soon as the submission process ended i was called for the biometrics....finger prints at the next counter and after exact 10 mins i was called in the interview room. (depending on the number of people and token numbers you will have to wait).
INTERVIEW
I must say i got lucky as the interviewer was kind and friendly towards me and asked me few question on how i met my fiance, his family, how and when he proposed to me and we had the chat on my country Tanzania and the way he loves it. I was asked to show all the original documents and he told me congratulations you are approved along with a pink small paper that shows the date and time of picking up my passport from the embassy.
So, the above was my k-1 visa journey in Abu Dhabi today and i am happy that i am approved. i will be posting a video on youtube by tomorrow showing the process and requirements of k-1 visa package and if you need any info related to previous marriage termination documents or so, email me on ragzbhatt26@gmail.com or just post your query below.
Best of luck to all the applicants.
Ragini
