NOA1 on 1-18-08

NOA2 on 2-27-08

He said the interview was very easy! It was just time consuming to wait for all the different steps, but they approved him!

They asked, "How did you meet?" and "When are you getting married?"... "Ok, we have everything we need, you'll have your VISA in about a week!"

I guess you have to go to like 3 or 4 different windows. First they check all your documents, tell you what order they want everything in, etc. For the affidavit of support, they even said we had too much! They gave him back some of our proof. Then he just had to wait. His appointment was at 7:30AM. He was the 3rd person in line, but the first person there for a K VISA. Everyone with a K VISA gets a waiting number that starts with a "W". He actually didn't see the consular office until 9:30, and was walking out the door at 9:45. He got to the embassy at 6:55, and he said by 7:05, there were easily 120 people in line.. so getting there early is essential!

:) HOORAY!
