hello dear VJ friends,

i just wanted to let you know that my wife's CR-1 visa has been approved. the interview was easy but the wife was asked a lot of questions (atleast thats what i think..lol) i will try to remember all the questions but will write a detailed review in the new delhi section later on. here it goes:

1.does your husband work at XXXXXX?

2. how did you meet? (asked for specific details)

3. so you have been to the US? how many times?

4. what are the names of his parents and siblings?

5. where did you go for your honeymoon?

6. can you show me your wedding album?

7. can you point out in the album, who is who?

8. where in the US does he live?

9. how long did you know each other before you decided to get married?

congratulations, your visa has been approved and you will recieve it within 5-7 business days!

besides everything, as always, i want to thank all my fellow vjers and this site for making this journey much less painful then it really was. the time flew by ranting and yelling but there was always someone to hear your voice. and that means a lot....thank you!

heres more questions that she was asked:

- Where do you work?

- How did your husband came to US?

- What is the name of your father in law/mother in law?

- How many sibling you have & if they are married?

- How long were you together after your wedding?

- Is your husband along with you?

- Have you traveled before to US?

- how long was your stay in the US? Any issues at port entry?

- Was it a traditional Hindu wedding?

- where he lives?

i think that was all!
