This is as told to me by Tonieta who just passed the interview at noontime 6/22/11 in Manila.
Arrived at embassy at 6:15 A.M. long lines but guard told everyone to organise d 156 and 157 forms and passport which he checked and soon the lines entered the embassy at 6:30.
Filled out 2GO form for where to send visa if approved.
Waited then went to window 39 and passed in 156 156k and 157 and passport
Waited then to window 38 which was the initial interview with a Filipina whom Tonieta said was pleasant. A space was blank on the 156 and she asked Tonieta to fill it in. She was asked only a few questions about her children and my children(names,ages) and about my divorces and my work. They also took the I-134 and and my tax transcripts for 2007,2008 and 2009 and my turbo tax copy of my 2010.(I filed late and had no transcript)
Waited and then did fingerprints.
Waited and then window 68? for the final interview with an Amercan female who was also very pleasant. Tonieta was asked how long we knew each other, where we met, about our children and my divorces again. How many times I visited.She asked if we were engaged and glanced at Tonieta's ring. Tonieta was asked again what my job was and where I worked She was asked if she knew she had to get married within 90 days and when Tonieta said yes she asked when we planned on getting married.She asked to see only one picture of us together and then said "Good luck. your visa is approved"
Last thing was to pass in the 2GO slip and Tonieta was out by noon.
I hope this helps a little. Also message or e-mail if there is something specific we might be able to answer. Aloha
