Good luck tomorrow thekfc, BigJohn and aurora07!

I know thekfc's wife is probably there right now given the 16 hour time difference. aurora07 should be there also if not all ready done.

How exciting.

Oh no Atencio!!! I hope she is able to make it there on time and has a very uneventful trip there and back :):thumbs:

Thank you TeyaValentina and OBX.

I just talked to her and she is now in her hotel across the street from the U.S. Embassy. She will have a day to rest, I hope. She is so nervous about the interview.

I wanna share my experience also. I got to US Emabassy Manila at 6 AM, (Interview sched is at 6:30AM). I got out of there at 10:30 AM. As for the pre-interview, they asked me the usual questions:

who is your petitioner? my husband

how did you meet? at a despedida dinner for a friend

when did you meet? aug. 8, 2007

who is arnold? my dad in law

who is rose? my mom in law

what do they do? ....

do you have pics? i showed her pics and she gave em back to me

have you been abroad? yes, italy, thailand, england, indonesia, malaysia, australia etc. (then she gave me a puzzled look)

were you there on vacation? no. i was a flight attendant

where were you based? in Abu Dhabi

what does your husband do? no job yet

when did he last have a job? sept 2010, before he left for the states

ok wait for your number to be called again. goodluck!

name was called for finger scanning.

number flashed for the final interview

consul was cute. haha. he asked me how i was and i asked him the same. his questions were:

when did you get married?

how long did you stay overseas?

who is arnold? what does he do exactly?

what does your husband do?

when did he move to brooklyn?

he pretty much spent most of the time typing and reading something off his screen. then he stamped my papers. read some more. then told me i'm approved.

he didn't ask for pics or any documents. i thanked him and told him he made my day. i also met a lady getting a k-1 visa, her name is lyra. she was so nice and talkative. she even shared her food with me. haha.

but yeah, it was a good experience. all i needed was my appointment letter and id. i showed my ds230 but they didn't really need it.
