Yea same with us. When we left the entire visitor visa area that had over 200 applicants was completely cleared. But the area for family visa stil had a few folks left and there were only like 50 cases there. Now I see why it takes so long to get interview. There are not 200+ family based interviews, its only like 50. The other folks are visitor visas.

And I wonder what percentage of the visitor visas get approved - not much, I'm sure. Auntie told me she tried to get a visitors visa last month and they denied givina a of that her son (3 1/2) is too young for her to leave on a vacation. What the rass....

Congrats to you and your SO Tash. This week has been great for Ja and that makes me so happy with all the good news from you guys. If your SO enters the US after your second anniversary date, he should automatically get an IR-1 from my understanding. It is a smart idea to have him ask at the POE for this as it will save you tons of headache in the long run.

Once again, congrats and I hope that God will continue to bless, guide and protect you as you venture on this life long journey.

Hi Everyone,

Just wanted to let everyone know that Hubby passed his interview this morning. :dance::dancing::dancing: I didn’t attend but he told me how it went. His interview time was scheduled for 7:30a. He reached about 7:10a. There were 2 lines formed outside, he joined the appropriate line showed his appointment letter and email with the correct appointment date to the officer, before entering the building. Yes, our date was originally for Tuesday, Oct 21st but was changed and we never received the corrected appointment letter.

Once inside he went through security check, taking off any jewelry and such. Then once in the main room he went up to a window to give his passport pictures and medical. He didn’t have to pay the $20 US fee since we submitted our petition before the deadline of the new immigration fee which took in effect July 07 then went to the next window for the fingerprints. A number was giving to him, which he waited a while before he was called up again.

He said during his wait he saw quite a few people being rescheduled and denied. One man was there and the interviewer asked where his spouse was. He said she was here but their interview date was rescheduled for today, and she had to leave. Come to find out some info was corresponding and/or docs were missing, so he was giving another interview date. He saw a few people who had to use the telephone to talk to the interviewer during the interview. We don’t know why that’s the case. This he said was making him jittery.

Finally it was his turn. We went up to the window; the interview was a young nice American lad, just smiling. She started out Good Morning, he responded Good Morning. Next she asked him to pick up the phone. OH OH - She then asked him the following questions:

1. How did you meet your wife?

2. How long have you know your wife?

3. When last did you see your wife?

4. Do you have any kids?

5. Does she have any kids?

His entire interview wad done over the phone. Then the women said: Congratulations and instructed him to go over to another section regarding Airpack. That was his experience. I was saying just yesterday I wish our process was as easy as Marlita’s, and look at it – it ended up as such. They didn’t as for ANY evidence or additional paperwork. Funny because I didn’t send any pics or such in the filing. But either way, he was prepared. Better to be prepared then not.

Well, I would like to Praise God that we made it through this entire process without any mishaps. And thanks for this Forum and all the helpful people who gives advice to anyone who needs it. My process here was flawless. We’re both relieved it’s finally over. But we don’t know if we’ve gotten the CR1 or IR1. When do you know this? When you pick up the visa? I just hope it’s the 10yr visa since come Nove11th will be our 2nd yr anniversary. Well, thanks again everyone. I hope everyone else’s Journey will be over shortly and all goes well. I’ve spoken to a couple people privately and just wanted to say it was a pleasure getting you meets you throughout this process. Until further notice.

God Bless.

CONGRATULATIONS!!! I HOPE BE THE NEXT !!!!! :dance:
