It was a pretty short and seamless experience if you are prepared. I actually think I was over prepared, because I didn’t even need to show them half the documents I brought, but I think it’s smart to bring as much evidence as you can just encase they request it. I entered the building at 8:15am for my appointment at 8:30am. I was greeted by an officer who asked for my passport, she then gave me a laminated sheet with a number on it and instructions of the order of specific documents you need to have ready before your appointment. I went through security and then took the elevator to the 19th floor. I sat in the waiting room for around 45 minutes before they called my number and was instructed to go to a specific window. The woman there then asked for the documents that were listed on the laminated sheet, asked me a few questions to make sure the information from my file was still up to date, and then took my finger prints and I was instructed to go sit back down and wait to be called for my interview. Around an hour and a half in total of waiting I was once again called to another window where a very friendly woman greeted me and asked me a few of what I thought were pretty simple questions along the lines of:
- When and how did you and your fiancé first meet?
- When did you first meet in person?
- Have you or your fiancé ever been previously married?
- Do you have any wedding plans?
- Have you ever lived anywhere other than Canada?
- Where will you be staying in the USA?
- Have you ever visited anywhere other than Arizona? (because I previously answered Arizona)
- What was your longest stay in the US?
- Have you ever been denied entry at the border?
And then she told me everything looked good, handed me an invitation sheet to the US and said “Welcome to the United States, we are approving your case†and then told me that my passport and visa would be mailed within 2 weeks, and she instructed me that I had 90 days to marry my fiancé once I enter the US. She was very friendly and easygoing, which I was honestly not expecting, I thought they would be somewhat intimidating, but everyone was extremely friendly.
