Hello Vj's

I just got home from the embassy for my interview, I am so sad things didn't go well for me. i've been interviewed two times. First at the consul then they told me to be back at 1pm for another interview. My second interview is at the Fraud unit. We were 7 applicants 4 K-3's and 3 K-1 applicants. Four of us the problem was we met our spouses/fiances through our relatives and we never thought that will be a big disadvantage for us. The consul thinks our marriage was just a fixed marriage because it was my Aunt who introduced to us with each other and the fact that we just only met once in person and then got married right away. I told them Bill and I known each other for more than two years and though we were just talking on phone, texting, chatting and sending emails and mailing cards by then we fell in love with each other and that feeling remained when we met in person and we decided to get married ASAP because we love and don't want to lose each other. But hell, they're not convinced yet. So they set me another interview at 1pm @ room 1206. When i went to room 1206 that was i realized that the room i'm going to is a FRAUD UNIT. I feels like "Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat? bakit ako pinapunta dito ano kala nila sa kasal namin fake?" :whistle:

My fellow applicants kept asking each other why we are here,what's the problem? Afterwards we filled-up papers Q&A about all the details of the relationship like how i we met, did we go out for dates when we were together, time and place of the wedding, how many guests,have you've been courted before, did your spouse gave you an engagements ring, where did he buy,if there's an engave inside blah blah blah...huh!!!!

My co-applicants has been sheduled to come back on the 30th,the other is on the 11th, an the other one is tomorrow.Lucky for me and the two we got interviewed right away. But GUYS I"VE NEVER BEEN INTERVIEWED IN MY WHOLE LIFE LIKE THAT. My interviewer was a filipina woman but i can't speak in tagalog..haha.

She asked me every lil details about the relationships but my mind go crant when she asked me about my hubby's ex-wives like how was your husband and his 1st wife known each other, where an what is her job "HAY NAKU MALAY KO BA?!!!"i just told her i on't know maam. Another thing she looked at the wedding photo an she said my husband is not interested or serious on our weing day because his hand was in his pocket "OH, GOOD LOR, IF SHE ONLY KNEW MY HOW HAPPY AND EXCITED MY HUSBAND WAS THAT TIME...I've been interviewed for an hour but i think she just stopped asking me because i cried so much when he asked about my grandparents, she asked my why i said my lolo is dying..Then she console me and said "perhaps, this is not your time yet to get a visa because of your lolo, go and get a plane ticket and be with him first." then she gave a paper which stating i have to call the embassy to schedule of interview "AGAIN" and the mails that i mailed to my husband. But before i left the room she gave me a prayer paper.I was so touched

:star:

I am sorry to hear that sis,hope things will be okay soon,just hang in there and stay strong. I know you and your husband will make it at the end of the line..God Bless

I married my wife after 2 years correspondence too, she is in Manila. We met only once too, and married at that time. We also have a K-3 pending. It took us 4 months to get the marriage license, because I had limited time I could be there, and had to send the application here to Nashville first, then Washington DC at the Philippines consulate there, then back to ehr, then it had to be displayed the 10 days. We got married at City Hall though, but we have so many pictures. But now I am worried. I have over 2000 pages of chats here, in small print, she lost my hand written letters though! But I have hers.

Hello, I am really sorry to hear that you got denied. I hope everything will be alright! Did you list a San Juan address in your marriage certificate?
