Interview questions about U.S. visits

[sweetswinks 400]

Hello everyone!

Anybody had any further questions regarding previous trips to usa prior to meeting your spouse?

I ask because my intervie at the Sydney U.S. consulate is in 12 days and I have visited the U.S. when I was 18 - 23 years old, 5 times over a 5 year period prior to meeting my fiancé because i was visiting friends there.

Any advice or feedback?

Sweetswinks,

We were asked how we met, and my spouse was asked some questions about her medical exam (we're nearly 60, and she has high blood pressure and a metal device closing up a hole in her heart).

That's all we were asked. Period. We were not asked any specifics about her travel to the US. She's traveled to the US about 6 times on the Visa Waiver Program in the last 5 years.

It was the easiest interview we've ever had!!!

Ah, great! Thanks Sukie! I've read many times that Sydney is an easy one, we have all of our paperwork ready to go. I am getting pre-interview jitters!

Sydney is easy. I was asked how many times I had been to the US (5x) and if I ever overstay (no) but no further questioning about it.

I'd had dozens of previous visits, on VWP and work visas. No questions were asked at the interview. As long as you have no overstays you'll be fine.

Thank you for all the replies! I am relieved to say the least 10 more days!

I interviewed in Sydney at the end of May.

Since meeting my 'now husband' in November of 2012, I had visited 3 times using the VWP, each time for 88 days. And 1 unrelated 'vacation' trip back in 2008.

I was asked the longest length of time I had visited for, and I'm assuming this was just to verify that I had never overstayed the 90 day max, and that was all.

The staff there are extremely nice and you will be nervous, as I was - But so long as you're genuine and honest, you have nothing to worry about

Good luck with the interview! It's a fantastic stage to be at - Next stop USA!
