Touchdown Steelers!

I got approved today(well if I judge by the fact that the officer said "good luck down there in the us")!

so it went pretty smoothly except for the long wait, was there from 8h30 to 11h45

I think I saw rae if she was a sophisticated looking redhead with a sleeveless burgundy shirt

Im quite quite quite happy!

That was me! (and why thank you for the compliment!) Oh, you should have come to say hello! There was one guy who came up to us before the doors opened and said he was also there for a K visa, but I am shy and didn't wanna be like, Ooh, are you on VJ? I should have. That wasn't you, what it? I guess not if you got there at 8.30....

Congrats on your approval as well. :D

Happy happy day. :D

nope I was wearing a blue shirt with a tie but I sat by the window so I could see the city coz I was C-11 and I was like "its going to be long"

You were gone and I hadnt even been called to give my papers yet.

Ah well I dont care, if my employer gives me my 2 weeks for being late, it wont matter coz Ill leave anyways! Ha!

All in all it was pretty simple and every employee there was super-nice.

I wrote a review too.

Sounds like we had very similar experiences, just offset by a couple hours! They asked us pretty much the same questions too, and the guy we talked to was super nice. :D

I'm glad it went well for you too! No reason to be nervous. B)

CBR, are you getting psyched?!

Hello,

Just got off the phone with DOS......Interview scheduled for June 27 8:30am!

Good luck to everyone and Congrats to those who are on their way!!!!

That's awesome!! I just called DOS and they haven't scheduled mine yet, but that's a good thing. When I saw yours was scheduled for late June, I was afraid I was going to have to find a last minute plane ticket from Alaska to Canada, plus take a bunch of time off work...I'm keeping my fingers crossed about getting an interview anywhere between July 8th and July 22nd...but I'll gladly take anything after waiting this long!!
