Engagement Ring at U.S. Embassy Interview

[Prawninator 138]

My wife did not have an engagement ring at the interview and it was never mentioned. She's trying to convince me that a 2 ct. one is necessary for Removal of Conditions.

WHOA!! Good luck with that! Here's a link to the article I mentioned earlier, for your benefit.

oh, that can't be so. I am sure she will only need a simple wedding band, 'cause it's true that all married people wear bands.

As for the engagement ring at the interview, I wore mine, but the CO didn't even notice, while another Romanian girl wrote in her review that the ring was looked at during her interview. It is not a requirement...so, don't worry; you guys will be approved without a ring on the finger

Hello everyone, I'm wondering how important is it that my fiancee is wearing a engagement ring when she is at her K-1 Visa interview at the U.S. Embassy? Did you wear a engagement ring at your interview? If she does not wear a engagement ring, will that effect the decision of the consulate doing her interview?

Thank you so much in advance

About your question, 8.17.10 Yestrday that was my Interview for K1. Yes, I wear my Engagement ring,cuz thats my 2nd suppporting doc.(receipt)but Consular officer not focus about my ring or receipt. Financial Supporting documents is really important & photos. Just incase they ask, give a best honest self explainatory.Thanks.

I don't know if you are going to the interview with her, but you could always give her an inexpensive one the day of the interview and replace it with the real deal later Good luck, by the way!

Let me ask you this question:

What's the big deal wearing the ring? If you proposed to her then i am assuming you have given here a ring and she should be wearing it day in and out! But if you have not given her a ring as you may be in compliance with certain cultural issue and i am sure the CO awares of it.

HA HA! Great one!

The bigger the ring, the more "bona-fide" the relationship is, right?

Funny thing; I actually just read an article that says diamond engagement rings aren't traditional, just companies like DeBeer keeping a major hold and monopolising the market for diamonds and what not, saying that it's a girl's best friend et cetera. In fact, one of my best friends was proposed to with a high-end DSLR camera with awesome Leica lens.

very true.

So... I'm sorry if this question is plain dumb. But, if you aren't wearing a ring for your interview (which I probably wont be)... how exactly are they verifying your engagement?

The only proof that they require is the letter of intent. One when you file your petition, and another at the interview.

In My case I guess it depends on where you are, My Fiancee is in Bogota and I have no desire to take a ring appraised at $11k down there, that's just asking for trouble....

The bigger the rock, you mean, heehee. I don't care if the ring's big enough to fit around my wrist, as long as I have a rock that other rocks can orbit around.

thats perfect , dont give them any chance to say u and her had no relationship i agree with you sam

The OP already said he doesn't want to give her a ring until he can give it to her in person. I don't understand why people are trying to advise him to go against his wishes and MAIL her an engagement ring. It's not a necessity at the interview.

It doesn't have to be THE engagement ring, it could be any ring. We're just playing out possibilities here.
