Hi Folks

Just to update you all i had my appointment this morning at the Bridgetown Barbados embassy and was approved. I must say it was a breeze. The actual interview lasted less than 10 minutes. The actual waiting to get called up to the window was what took up most of my time.

I went to the first window and i was asked for the white envelop attached to the brown X-ray envelop. I detached the white envelop and gave it to the lady. She opened the envelop and gave me what she said was my copy of the results. She asked me one or two questions but she was more interested in my my job as flight attendant and asked me when did i plan on leaving the job. Then i went to sit down

Then i was called to another window this time to do my fingerprint. Once that was done i was told ok return to your seat. Then i was called to the window where the actual interviewer asked me the following questions.

Your husband is the one who filed for you? Yes

Where did you meet? Back home. "Oh he is from the same country as you".

How long has he been in the US?

Who filed for him?

How often did you see each other?

Were either of you married before?

Where does he work

Who lives with him?

That was it.

The most time was spent trying to figur out how best to handle the issurance of the visa as i am a flight attendant and need my passport to travel for work. She cancelled my B1 Visa and C1D Visas as she told me i cannot have 2 valid visas at the same time. She told me that they will try to complete their security checks and issue the Visa tomorrow so i can get my passport back by Wednesday. They were very accomodating. She told me congratulations and gave me a green paper to go pay the DHL courier. And the end as they say was history.

Now keeping my fingers crossed and praying i get my passport back soon as it means i cannot work until i have my passport.

Piece of Cake

Now i am off to sleep as i did not sleep at all last night.

Oh most important i had a big bag with e-mails, skype chat, telephone bills, insurance documents, and 300 pictures of our wedding, and other pictures ready to show as evidence of a relationship and i was not asked for nothing. I even had the financial evidence, and supporting documents. I noticed that no one had to show them any additional proof of a relationhip. I felt like such a fool after trotting along this big bag of evidence, ready to aim, set, fire at the interviewer. LOL.

Some people were at the counter with the interviewer for quite a long time. I was there for no more than 10 minutes.

Thanks to VJ for making my journey a seamless one. After all that i have read and learnt here i am now giving advise to everyone I know going through the immigration process. Guess i have become quite the immigration expert. LOl

Thanks again for all the helpful information

Good Luck to the rest of you with December Interviews.
