Rating:  | Review Topic: IR-1/CR-1 Visa
Beneficiary's Country: Kosova
Embassy: Skopje, Macedonia
The interview was tough but in the end the CO was satisfied, but the visa wasn't issued until I provided a joint sponsor and proof of the dates of my trip in 2012. Many people going through the Macedonia embassy now are being turned away and need to come back with more documents or proof.
A second interview was not needed but an appointment to return to the embassy with additional documents was required (they would not let him show additional documents even though he had them with him).
Hubby went back to the embassy 11 April. His 11 am appointment was with the same CO. She took the papers and at 12:30 pm she told him they looked good and his visa is approved. She smiled and told him "Congratulations, welcome to the USA." Then she told him to come back at 4:30 pm to pick up his passport, brown envelope and instructions.
Note---The NVC sent instructions as PDF files via email, which is good, because my husband received the hard copy in the mail the day before his interview. One file was for the medical, the other was his appointment letter and instructions. Please note--make sure the NVC has your email address because then all packets and instructions will come as PDF files.
The embassy is professional but tougher now than in the past.
