My fiancee had her visa approved today, and it will be available for pick-up next week Wednesday. Her interview lasted less than 5 minutes. She was asked the following questions:

1. What I did for a living?

2. The last time we had seen each other?

3. How we met?

4. What she does for a living?

5. What she did while she was living in London? She completed her Masters there, and worked for about a year before returning to Nigeria

6. The only evidence he asked to see were pictures. He flipped through the pictures and asked a couple of questions about them

We are both relieved and excited about the outcome of the interview. This website and forum have been of tremendous help throughout this process. We are grateful/thankful to all others that have shared their experiences and wisdom on this site.

Hi, how long did it took the national visa center to respond to your choice of agent address email? I had filed for both my husband and my mom...my mom email the choice of agent address form on the 13th of november and hope this time they haven't gotten to the email yet. I'm a little concern. Please give me little info.
