Thanks for all your support guys! Wouldn't have made it this far without you all!

The CO didn't look at one thing. Seriously. I dropped 5lbs of evidence in front of her. She said, "Well, your visa is approved! Congrats!"

I was like, "Seriously? That's it? You don't wanna see some pictures? Phone bills?"

Now I feel bad for all the trees I killed!

well! as for me - after the interview, it changed a whole lot of my perceptions of the immigration interview (all the things i'd read and heard). in fact, if the documentation submitted at the nvc is okay and accepted and if you are well prepared. the interview is a piece of cake.
