After 9 months of processing, my wife (Israeli citizen) finally had her CR1 immigration visa interview this morning at the US Consulate in Jerusalem. The interview was very cold and mechanical, but my wife answered all the CO's questions as best she could. There was not any attention paid to the documentation or photos. Some answers were better than others and at the end, the CO just said, "OK, you're finished," and took my wife's passport.

My wife asked "What should I tell my husband?" The CO only replied, "I will keep in touch with you." I would have thought the CO would have either said "You're approved" or "You're rejected."

My wife did NOT receive any Refusal Letter at the interview, but she also didn't go to the SHAAL Courier Service to pay for the passport to be returned. I might assume taking her passport was a good sign, but I'm not certain.

Has anyone gone through this process? Can you confirm if she should have received the Refusal Letter if she was refused? Did people who were approved have to go to the SHAAL Courier Service to pay for shipping?

My husband has his CR1 interview next month in Mumbai. I have three questions, hopefully someone has an answer to them.

1- Will there be any other fees that my husband will have to pay when he goes for his interview? Fingerprint fees or anything else like that?

2- For those who accompained their spouse's back to the USA after the interview, at the POE, once your spouse was sent to secondary for further processing, were you able to accompany your spouse to secondary to await processing or not?

3- I noticed that a couple of VJer's went to the social security office to get a social security number/card. I thought that once you arrive in the U.S., it is automatically mailed to the address that you listed on the DS230 form. Question 43 on the DS230 Part II, asks if you want to have SS assign you a number. Do you have to go to SS office or will it automatically come in the mail since you already requested one on the DS230?

Given the country of origin, it's likely that she's in Administrative Processing. Good luck and hang in there.
