We are looking forward to our November the 12th interview in London. I have collated documents photos etc to take and although I have an element of apprehension I am looking forward to this hopefully being the end of the process. We wish you all success in your various consular interviews and a happy re-union with your spouses.

Best Wishes

Arthur and Roberta

Hey... Just found out our request to get an earlier interview was approved... We had one Nov 10, they moved it one week earlier, Nov 4th YAY!!!!

but what they ask you in the interview? is it possible that they don't give the visa to you? why?

Be wure to read the embassy experiences (it is a tab at the top) to get an idea of what they ask and the stuff you need to prove... Mainly you have to prove that you have a bonified marriage or ongoing relationship for K-1 and that you have the financial resources to support yourselves in the US

Just curious, but how did you request an earlier date? We originally had an Oct 26th date, but Islamabad closed their embassy for this week. So when we called to reschedule, they told us the EARLIEST date they have available for those who were affected by the closure was Nov 23. But when I went on the Islamabad thread, someone's husband got a call from Embassy and they rescheduled their Oct 28th date to Nov 19th. So, how do I get an earlier date for my husband? I am pregnant and really need to get back to USA soon for prenatal care but my hubby wants me at his interview. Any advice?

Nothing special, we just asked if they might possibly have an earlier vacancy as he would like to get the US to start his new job.... But we had heard that the Naples consulate was pretty slow and not a lit of requests (thankfully!!!) So surprisingly, they said yes! Hopefully the interview goes easy too.. But after 6+years married, we have plenty of evidence together...
