My wife just received the K3 interview invitation letter from mumbai consulate..

We gotta arrange our packet 4, she has an medical check to perform and then I'm going there to the interview.

Thanks to everyone on VJ forums, helped us soo much to get to this point..

From what I read they don't allow the petitioner in the interview, but I don't care I'm still going.

Wish us luck for dec 16th!!! I can't wait i'm soo excited!

Hello Baltar,

Delhi Embassy 'will' most definately allow you to go in with her, but you may not be allowed to be at her side as she's being interviewed. This is completely at the CO's discretion. But again,you never know..One VJ'er petitioner PM'd me before my SO's interview date and informed me she was there in Delhi with her fiance (now husband) and they interviewed her as well!! Be prepared just in case and good luck. :)

Do you mean going into 'the Embassy' with her? Or Going to stand right there beside her as she;s being interviewd?

If it's the former, I am telling you for sure that you will be allowed into the Embassy with your wife on the 'the' day of her interview.

If you're indeed going to be there, then you'll find this out soon enough on your own. Then you can share your experience with all of your friends at VJ! :)

Take care and Good Luck!
