Embassy Dress Code?

Kazan, pushbrk is one of the oldest and most knowledgeable members of this forum. I have not seen one post of yours that was of any help whatsoever, you only post "personal opinions" and never facts. So my thoughts to you is...we have 2 ears and 1 mouth...so we listen double as much as we say.

Saludos,

I have never posted a fact? Interesting... And never anything usefull-!!! Oh, where is the love-!!!

You want hard core facts, go to a doctor, lawyer, or other professional. You want freely expressed personal opinions, come to an online public forum filled with lay people. Which is VJ?

In my opinion, what we definitely don't need is a personal attacks.

The above does raise a legitimate question which is at least somewhat applicable to the topic of the thread. In this thread, opinion is really what its all about. Beyond something akin to "no shoes, no shirt, no service" there isn't a dress code for Consulate interviews, so all we can give is opinion.

In general, however, there are many other threads where the OP is really looking for reliable information they can take as a solid answer and act upon. Sometimes they are asking for something that cannot be given but many times, good solid fact based advice is both possible and available. In those cases, answers like "we did it this way...." (particularly with another country and visa type) are not nearly as helpful as "This is what you can expect because...." or a firm answer like "The I-864 doesn't need notarizing but does require at least one tax return or transcript. Best practice is to provide three." While "We did it this way...." can technically be a "fact", if the fact isn't applicable to the OP's instant context, it isn't useful.

The above comments are directed to a subject, not an individual.

Anyhoo, how are those cravats looking? i.e. let's get back on topic purleese.

My issue is not with Pushbrk's expertise, he is a clever man, it is with being corrected on a frilolous point (the precise and proper use of formal and semi-formal attire or how I should not use the word "most".) One can add to the dialogue without microediting the previous poster. If I say, NVC is the National Visitors Center, yes, by all means correct me. But I don't need every word scrutinized for grammatical correctiveness.

So basically you are against people posting personal opinions? This place is not all about being serious. This forum also serves to take peoples minds off the wait and to have fun and enjoy life. Which I try to do but you seem to have a problem with. I mean, really, I have "never said anything helpful" to anyone? I guess all my received PMs from other members are lies.

My Final Thought...on the day of the interview, make your way down to Selfridges or Harrods, and have yourself a couple of the world's finest Krispy Kreme Doughnuts.

If that doesnt ease your mind just before your interview, then nothing will!!

Remember that you'll most likely be interviewing with an American citizen, so 10-gallon cowboy hat, jeans, boots, giant belt buckle, and red, white, and blue western shirt with fringes are the most appropriate attire. Big foam "USA #1!" finger optional, but may help in cases where the interviewer could go one way or the other.

And you try to explain this to your lady, and she just looks at you like you're nuts. (I've completely given up on trying to get her to pronounce "y'all" correctly. *sigh*)

I want to know whether I should wear a codpiece. If not for purposes of fashion, it could serve as a handy repository for sandwiches, or the materials therefor -- to wit: bread, luncheon meats, Grey Poupon...
