Hi,

First of all, I would like to thank everyone on VJ for making this happen. There were times when I had questions on I130, G325A, DS3032, 230, and I864 but I always knew who/where to turn to for assistance. The VJ community is the best!!

:dance:MY HUSBAND'S VISA HAS BEEN APPROVED!! :dance:

His interview was scheduled for 8:45am on 10/20/08. He arrived at the embassy at 7:30am.

Here is a timeline of what took place……..

7:30am Arrival at Embassy

7:35am Went through security check

8:15am Fingerprinting

8:30am First interview

The lady collected his medical report and returned his originals (birth certificate, marriage certificate…)

During the first interview which was conducted by an Indian lady, he was only asked two questions….

Who is the petitioner?

What is your marriage date?

Then he was asked to take a seat and his name will be called……

10:10am Second interview – took an oath that everything on form ds230 is true and signed part II of the form. He was then asked the following........

Who is petitioning for you?

How did you meet?

When was the first time you met?

Who went with you to see your wife for the first time?

Date of your marriage?

What does your wife do?

Is this your first marriage?

Is this her first marriage?

Do you have any family members living in the US?

Who attended the wedding?

Who came from the US to attend the wedding?

Then he was told….congratulations…that his Visa has been granted and it could be collected within a week from the local VFS office.

My husband was not asked to see a single proof of ongoing relationship or any other papers. He carried with him…..copy of the complete petition, the wedding album, hundreds of other photos, stack of e-mails, stack of post cards, thick stack of monthly phone bills by Reliance (two to three calls per day)……..

He was in the embassy at 7:35am and was out with VISA APPROVED at 10:30am.

CONGRATULATIONS!!! I'm very happy for you guys.

Just a question on the phone bills by reliance....I use the same service and I just save the calls made every month since they don't mail you a hard copy. Is this what he took with him? I just wanna be sure it will be ok to just take the online version of the bills... Thx.
