[savina 0]

Hi all I had my interview at chennai embassy on nov 20th and the interview was very smooth.

7.15 AM - waited in line outside the embassy.

8am - allowed inside as i had an 8am interview time.

8.15am - my file was checked by a security girl at the entrance and i had to open all sealed envelopes.

8.25am-9am - waited inside till an indian lady at the counter called me.

9am-9.15am- indian lady asked ques and checked all my docs and took my wedding pics and original police certificates.

Ques asked-When you got married?how you met ur hubby?where he works?whn he went to US?when he became a USC?have you travelled outside the US?where how long?Since I was a christian asked If i got married in church and asked for my church weddin certi as well and wedding pics only.Took my right and left hand four fingers print on the machine and then both the thumbs together.

Then gave me a number and asked me to wait till am called for my interview.

10.25am - Called by the American guy for my interview.Took a look at my docs for a long time then asked kinda same ques but not too many.

Ques asked - When you got married?Do you have hubbys naturalization certi?how did he become a USC?(birth etc)Is this 1st marriage for both?love or arranged?how u met?where he worked and currently works?last 6months pay stubbs(i did not have ths)

Asked to submit this as soon as possible and then they will review and send the visa. i had so much of relationship proof and nothing was looked at:(

I am sending this soon hope to get the visa asap after they receive it coz all else went well:)

all the best to all waiting.

hey i did not submit any docs at VFS but before my interview in chennai i had to pay a Rs 387 INR fee at VFS hyderabad for my visa to arrive.But now i will hv to send sum docs via VFS like my hubbys pay stubbs which is pending and then they will review and gv me the visa asap.

My hubby paid all fees for me and i submitted all originals to NVC so did not use VFS.

yeah sure...where is ur wife having her interview?CR1 or IR1?

Hope you will have your visa soon.

I have a question: I believe your spouse might have submitted employment certificate etc,, to NVC. Why did the want to see 'pay stubs'? any reason?

[savina 0]

hey yes he did submit all employment docs but the interviewer wanted to see the current year pay stubbs i guess(dont know why)was too tensed to ask as i knew tht i had to still wait for my visa till i submit this doc.

you know u just hv to be prepared with everything i guess...also i was asked for a copy of hubbys passport.

Lesson learned: have everything in hand that they might possibly ask for.
