I arrived at the embassy 30mins early and stood in a line at the door for interview letters and passports to be checked. Once the lady checked me off her list she pointed me to the door to enter. The first entry is like airport security you put your belongings in the tray and walk through the metal detector. I had a giant hand bag that had my whole paperwork file inside, my phone, iPad, purse, car keys sunglasses, and a bottle of water. They allowed all of that inside but asked me to take a sip of my water before thanking me. I then walked into a second building and straight to the main desk where they checked my visa type gave me a number and directed me to the waiting area. It was in the lift 1st floor exit the lift and make two left turns and wait there for my number to come on the screen.
The first time my number came up I went to the numbered window and handed in my passport, interview letter and courier letter.
The man asked to take my fingerprints then asked for my birth certificate, police certificate, marriage certificate and told me that my case is the new electronic filing and I will hear about a envelope but I am to ignore this as I do not need the envelope it will not come. He asked me when I plan to travel to USA and went through a checklist to ensure he had the documents he needed. He continued to politely tell me to sit back down and wait my number for a second time.
The second window my original certificates were returned to me the lady once again took my fingerprints, I was asked to swear I’m telling the truth then was asked very few questions....
How did you meet you husband?
When did you meet your husband?
If he has a house or apartment where I will live when I get there?
She explained that since I am waiting for my medical appointment they will keep hold of my passport and issue the visa after my medical.
EVERYONE was nice polite and happy
My interview time was 10am I got there 9.30 and left 10.45
