Meridien,Good news..Wish you easy interview...

Just like mine was...... :thumbs:

OK...My interview was not easy...it was tooo easy :dance:

Once I got there Usbek lady took my paperwork(divorce degree,crim records from Korea and Uzbekistan,Affidavit,W-2 2007,DS-156K,DS-156,DS-230 and DS-230 Part 2 tshe gave back to me and said if consular officer will ask me,I have to give that to her)...

I paid 131$ and she said I have to wait for a little while...After 20 minutes they called my name ..US consular officer-pretty young woman directly gave me DS-156K to put a signature and said that my visa is approved and I have to marry my Al within next 90 days...I was like ...wait a minute...I wanted to tell them how we met,etc...She just said that she knows everything and how we met,and that we lived together for a while..She wished me luck and said that she thank my man for serving USA...(I was so proud) and that I have to come back Thursday and pick up my passport with visa....

Guys....I want to thank all of you for help and support...We were sharing our experience,were worring about each other...Just THANK YOU ALL...

I wish to all who is going to have an interview soon luck!!!

Well, here I was thinking that it was going all too fast and now it's come to a full stop! It's been a week since we sent the check list back to the embassy, now we're just waiting on the interview date.. rang the embassy this morning to just check that everything was o.k. (that the checklist was actually received!) and that we were not meant to make the appointment ourselves; the person on the other end says it could take up to 6 weeks before they send the interview date to us! How ridiculous is that?! I'm hoping he just HAS to say that and that it's not subject to actually taking that long.. gah.. come on US Embassy in London!!!

*sigh*

We wait..

Good for you! :thumbs:

NVC finally received ours. Yay! :dance:

Actually, they said they've not only received, but they have sent it to London already.

I'm catching up with you Lucian. :rofl:

Can I just confirm that my SO does not actually need to send me the entire copy of the I129 thingy?

Will I need a copy of his divorce decree or just his I134, wage slips, letter of intent, tax stuff?

Sound about right?

Yay!!! I'm happy for you guys too, Roselinda!!!

This is what I sent my fiance: a certified copy of my divorce decree, I-134 and supporting documents (paystubs, tax returns for 07, 06, 05), letter of intent, proof of relationship (pics, letters, emails, call logs, etc), a copy of 129-F (with original boarding passes, receipts, etc), and a copy of my naturalization certificate. I think that's about it....
