Visa also approved! We arrived first in line today but unfortunately this does not mean anything as you still have to be routed up the chain. More details to come in our review of the embassy. But quick things that i remember of note was the CO was very nice and handled us well. He seemed to take a liking to Adriana because he told her a number of funny jokes. Then when he started talking to me he just asked me what I did and if Adry paid me 10,000 bucks for her visa lol. He was very surprised on all the evidence we brought over and liked the magic jack phone logs. He also liked the fact we had a unique photo album done that included snap shot photos from 4 different visits including the wedding and honeymoon to show validity of our relationship. Thanks to WINKFLASH.COM. The only complaint i have is that they process the visas in the order they receive because arriving first and waiting as long as we did was wrong and that the person that helps at the W40 podium know what the heck is going on. Because we almost had to go through a K3 interview until we repeatedly told her that we got the CR1 pushed up for our convenience. They tried to make us pay for the DS 156 but since we eventually got the CR1 interview we only had to pay for the domesa shipping of her visa. Gracias a Dios!!!

Thanks to kens great posts we are staying at the apartment now. Everything is as he said. We had the laboratory and doctor appointments yesterday all went well. Riding the city bus standing up is like an e ticket ride. We went to the central commercial mall down town after the doctor and hung out long wait for taxi back from there last night. Well today we are going to check out the sheriff restaurant for lunch soon and visit my fiancees aunt later then interview tomorrow. Good luck to everyone else and any questions on things here will be happy to answer.

I think it is great that my posts were able to help you. Please let us know what happens at the Interview. Remember, PUBLIC DISPLAYS OF AFFECTION AT THE EMBASSY ARE A REAL GOOD IDEA. ESPECIALLY, WITH THE CONSULAR OFFICER LOOKING AT BOTH OF YOU/SIZING YOU TWO UP.

Visa approved more details later but they did not ask me any questions only fiancee so I could not ask about joe or for a tour of the embassy lol

Flying Lover, we both were having our interviews today lol. Had i known we would have had a blast talking to another VJ member while waiting. I can only guess now which couple you guys were. We were the muy bajo couple that went up to window 5 i belive and spoke to the red haired/beareded man who made my wife laugh alot. We also brought a ton of evidence and paperwork and we had that huge blue backpack. After he told me he didnt want to keep me there any more longer than we had to be he told me visa approved and i told my wife and we kissed on the spot with big smiles. Still we probly were not as noticeable as the blonde haired man and his daughter in window 1 lol. Anyway congrads my VJ amigo!!!

Congratulations on your visa James! Especially since you finally got the CR1 instead of the K3. Double kudos to you.
