When I approached the glass window to where my assigned consul was, we greeted each other and and then asked about how my day was and I did the same. After, he asked me to place my fingers through the scanner to verify then I took an oath that everything I say is true then he proceeded to asking me questions, here are some of the questions that I could remember:
1. Who is your petitioner?
2. How did you meet?
3. How long have you been married?
4. Why did you choose the spousal route? (Then asked if i have pictures of the wedding and reception)
5. How many people came to your wedding?
6. How many times did he came to visit? (Then he asked pictures of the time we were together)
7. When was the last time you saw each other?
8. How long have you known each other?
Then the consul told me “Please read these and know that you can call 911 anytime if you feel abused and violated and it will not affect your visa status, its in english and tagalog†and he hands out a pamphlet about domestic violence and abuse. And the he says, like music to my ears “Looks like everything is good, your visa will be delivered with in 5 to 10 working days at your registered delivery address, have a great day!â€
Tip:
- Just be calm, be honest and truthful to everything that you say.
- I brought with me a scrapbook that’s not too big, about 8x9 inches so that it can fit to the counter under the glass window (the consul literally checked all of our photos)
Every case is different, this is just how it went for me, good luck to everyone! |
