Here\'s the initial review as pieced together from choppy conversations as Reigel waited to catch a bus. Reigel\'s appointment was at 8:30 and he was seen around 12:30 or 1. He said the wait was the worst part of the whole thing. We were pretty well-prepared for the questions they asked. I was previously married and they did ask him about why my previous marriage had failed. Fortunately we had discussed that. He said the only one that surprised him was what did I do for work before I became a teacher. We hadn\'t ever talked about that, but he told them I was in school. Close enough. I don\'t have a lot of detail on the questions they asked him just yet, but he said they were most interested in looking at our pictures and didn\'t really look at much of the other paperwork. I am significantly older than him and I was worried that they would really harass him about that, but I guess they barely talked about it.
I will add more details later when I have a clear follow up conversation.
Here are some additions:
Appointment was at 8:30. Reigel was seen around 12:30. Interview lasted for about 15-20 minutes. First thing they asked was how did we meet? Reigel said he told them the whole story in quite a bit of detail. They then asked for proof of relationship and asked specific questions about the times I had returned to visit such as and then she returned when? The only paperwork they really looked at was our pictures and my proof of travel-plane tickets, etc. They did not look at our phone records or any of the letters of support I had included. They didn't take his non-impediment or his police record. He said they looked at the police record but did not take it. He had to pay a 1050J fee at the door (I think a security fee) and then DHL was 3200J for delivery to Montego Bay. They took my tax and W-2 information, probably all associated I-134 paperwork.
I think that's it. He really said it was pretty easy. Feel free to message me with any questions.
