Our interview

[GG.Gutierrez 0]

We went to the our interview on Sept 3 2010. Once we got out of the cab we walked to the enterance where they have lines that were number between 1 and 4. Once they confirm that we had a letter we were allowed inside and went thru Security. Like everyone says it is an open area so make sure that you bring clothes that will keep you warm! (The weather in Bogota sucks!!!) We were lead to the immgration visa lines and a Colombian woman gave us a folder to make sure we had all the forms. Once she confirm Ginna and I had everything we were advised to go and wait by windows on the other side to be called. After about 30 minutes Ginna was called to window 29 and they went over the forms again. She came back becuase I forgot to sign one of the forms!!! After I signed we were advisd to go back to where we were first at and wait to be called... Here is were the hard part begins!! We arrived in at the embassy at 7:00AM and were not called until 1:30 PM, we were the 3rd to last couple called. As a Nicaraguan who just became a citizen 2 years ago I can say that it was hard to see the heartbreak when someone is denied a visa.. about 50% of the people that were waiting for an Immigration visa were denied, including the only other couple that were there. This made Ginna worry since there was no way to confirm what they were missing and we were to shy to ask. Finally it was our turn, and we both went to window 6. A very nice american woman spoke to Ginna and made her feel at ease, she said that we have so much information:

• Cellphone call detail for 18 months which listed all the calls and text messages we made to each other
  
• Emails that we sent to each other
  
• Copy of Wester Union recepits from when I sent her money
  
• copies of the flowers I sent her, 2 times for her birthday and 1 time for our anniversay
  
• Letter from her company to confirm that I went to train for them and that she was one of the supervisors that attended
  
• Passort stamps and hotel bills from the times that I went bck to Barranquilla to vist her
  
• And of course all the pictures we have together
  

She said that she had no doubt that we were in a real realtionship and asked her the following questions:

• How did we meet? Through work when I went to train at her call center
  
• How many times have I been to Colombia to visit her? 5 times total but only 4 to see her.
  
• What is my current postion in my company? Manager
  
• When did I propose? and the story behind it. On Mar 19 and that I was mean about it
  

After those questions she told her that she was approved! We hugged and kissed and went to pay the fee for the visa. Overall the wait was the worse part becuase you see the human drama of everyone else and your mind begins to wonder where you stand in the whole process.... But everyone was polite and no one was rude. I hope that this helps anyone else.
