Interview breakdown at Delhi Embassy

[Arun+Catie 1]

Arun's experience at the Delhi Embassy:

I reached the embassy before 6 am - but there was no need to reach early because they lined us up according to our appointment times. We lined up for security check – they don't allow any electronic things. I received a token number at 7:28am. I was the first one to enter inside the interview hall. I waited for 10 minutes, and then one person came to the window and asked me to come. He asked me for my appointment letter, medical reports and passport. He returned my originals back at that time and asked me to wait until I was called again. He also asked a few questions:

1. Who is the petitioner?

2. Have you ever been to the USA?

3. Were you or your wife married before?

4. Have you ever been to any other country?

Then he scanned all my fingers and thumbs.

After about an hour, the consular officer came to the window and again I was the first one to be interviewed. The officer was a nice (American) lady and we greeted each other, and then she asked me to swear to honesty and then scanned my right thumb. She also asked me to sign DS-230 part II, and then these questions:

1. How did you meet your wife?

2. In person how did you meet?

3. When did you get married?

4. How many people where there at the wedding?

5. What is your mother-in-law's name?

6. Is your wife working at present?

7. Where she was working before?

8. Who is going to support you then?

9. Did anyone come from states to India?

10. Shouldn’t you have waited for them to have some time so they could have attended your marriage?

11. Were your parents at the wedding?

12. Why were they not there?

13. Have you ever been to states or any other country?

14. How long you have stayed there?

15. What was the reason you were there?

16. Did your wife ever come to India after you got married?

17. How long did she stay?

18. Do you have a baby?

Then she asked for the wedding pictures, which I showed her and after that she asked me to show her more pictures. I had nearly 200 pictures! She asked me about the baby my wife was holding in the pictures (my niece.) She just flipped through the pictures and looked at them some more and then she started signing the AOS form and at that time I was sure of a "yes," I knew I got the visa.

Anyway, she then picked up someone else’s file and told me that they will mail me the passport, and then she said the words we’re all waiting to hear: “You are approved.”

Then I asked her if I could pick my documents up from VFS, and she told me to make those arrangements with VFS directly, because she can’t confirm that for me. She gave me the VFS address, which I already had. She asked me if there was anything else I wanted to ask. I said no and she smiled, and I picked my things and said, “Thank you, Madam, have a good day.” Ahhhh…I wish someone could see the smile on my face! It was a short interview, maybe 10 minutes.
