We are almost ready to schedule interview in Nairobi

[Jamie&Harry 1]

we are at that step he received his packet 3 and his police certificates and is ready with all other documents. I mailed out the stuff i needed to send plus the 1_134 and allll sorts of documents. anyways once he receives my package we will be ready to schedul his medical exam and his interview. I was already in contact with the consulate by email and they said they can coordinate the interview through email just to let them know after we schedule the medical. Im so nervous as he is not from that country and not sure what to do /expect of that area but at least the consulate will work with us which is very very nice of them Anyways so many worries right now and im nervous about the interview. When he was here he didnt meet my parents as they are in another state and not very supporting of my decision they dont know him and they think i flipped my lid. Anyways I guess im wondering what types of questions they ask i know i have read people say to practice some interview questions but i worry it will sound canned and not natural not sure how natural u sound nervous anyways

I know im rambling but some things im wondering about how easy is it to navigate there as he will need to find a place to stay and find the medical place and the consulate lol and i just think wow hes doing all this to be with me Going through all of this and giving up so much to be withme I dont know anyone who would go through so much and so much expense he amazes me every day

and tips, helps and reassurance?

reason i mention my parents is i have read that they do ask questions on them but he has never met them im not very close to them i call them here and there but dont really talk to them about my life and because they are not very supportive I havent talked to them much about everything. I just figured I would get married and go visit them eventually =P and they will be fine so i dont know what he will say if they ask him about my parents

My husband is from Uganda, but of course had to go through Nairobi for his K1. He had never been to Nairobi but found it pretty easy to Navigate and didn't have any problems. Most people with fiances going through Kenya probably never had their fiance visit the states, and there for were not asked about meeting the in-laws. There is a Nairobi embassy thread (a couple pages back) which will have the experiences of most of us who wen t through Nairobi in the last year. It is one of the easier African consulates to deal with. Good luck!!

Hi Jamie& Harry! Congratulations on being so close to the interview and approval. Soontobe is right-- Nairobi is one of the nicest, easiest consulates to go through (if you don't mind waiting!)

Please browse through the nairobi consulate thread found here: http://www.visajourney.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=160251

Go to the 7th page and you will find my experience of going with my fiance to his interview: what buses we took, where we stayed, how much it cost, etc. There is also information about the medical in the earlier pages but the doctors may have changed sine I was there. Browse the Nairobi thread, there is plenty of great information there! Good luck!
