Nica thanks for keeping this list up :thumbs::innocent: Twenty people on the Oct interview list should provide us with a better understanding of what we are about to go through. I know all of us have to be somewhat nervous when we go....

For those on the list please dont forget us, now that you have your passed your interview and were approved. Please continue to share the wealth about those things that were ask of you during the interview. Things Like:

- how were you received and what was ask for at the time of your arrival

- what did you bring

- what did you wish you brought

- Questions about you

- Questions about your husband

- Questions about your meeting each other

- Questions about kids or family members

- Employment questions

- Financial questions

- Documentation questions

- Did you have to give then copies of any document you brought

- Did they return Original documents to you

And so on... This will help all of us who still have to pass our interviews... Any information you can provide might make a big difference to someone, so dont be so happy that you forget about all the rest of us. :help::help:(F):P THANK YOU FOR HELPING... :yes::yes:

Thank you so much Emily! I've been praying hard for everything to go smooth. I know God is with us! We are also planning a small traditional church ceremony. Even though we're already married but we only did it the "civil" way, so I know it would make my mom real happy to see me get married in the same church she got married :)

I'm glad you guys are all set! I betcha can't wait to see your hubby! That's how I feel, I miss him so much!

Btw do you speak spanish?

I know! I am nervous but inmensely happy! I'm just a bit stressed because of the interview, and planning the ceremony, but praying and having faith in God helps me stay calm.

Si, me parecia que habia leido que habias nacido en Chile, pero no estaba segura. Gracias por las bendiciones, que Dios los bendiga a ustedes tambien Emily! GRACIAS!
