You are in a visa category where a visa is available for you.. So there is almost no wait time you'll be scheduled for an interview as quick as your case is completed. You will not be allowed in as per the embassy's rules/reg. I suggest u email the embassy asking for that pardon.. Keep it ShorT...!

You asked about the interview process? in a quick rundown...

1. Arrive at location and agents outside check the documents

2. Pass through security screening

3. Have a seat in the court/waiting area

4. Proceed inside and your documents will be verified and a # is given.

5. Sit/stand in the waiting area to be called then you go to first window ... There u will present all requested documents and they will open the package from the NVC confirm all dcks are current/correct then do fingerprints... Then the applicant is asked to sit and wait his/her number to be called.

6. Interview. The person is sworn in to confirm all information provided to be correct so help them god.

7. After the interview if approved he/she will be directed to DHL (delivery company) to drop off the passport/s..... Then expect passport soon or be placed under review. OR the if not approved...will receive a blue slip basically giving information on how to fix it.. missing forms, request to interview the petitioner etc. if denied...thats a different issue.

Hope your questions were answered.

Thanks Richardo...I was worried when I saw that it could be another 5 months...I miss my husband so much...he would like me to come down but I think he wants to do the interview alone, just worried about the questions they r going to ask...as we've been together for 3 years and have been married for 1 year..I have visited about 3 times a year...just worried that they might want to interview me and have to come back again..

Do you have the email address for the embassy?

Do you remember the types of questions they asked during the interview?

I have only had one experience with the Kingston Consulate and that was for my parents green card so i cant say what questions they asked for people who are trying to immigrate based on marriage or other. Found some information below from members who were interviewed in Kingston and questions asked.

1.If its a coincident that after I was denied 2 times my Fiancée file for me?

2.When i leave the U.S.A?

3.How long was I @ one of my previous jobs in the U.S.A?

4.Since I've been to JA how many time I see my Fiancée?

5.Then he say, if you had gotten ur previous visa don't you think you Fiancée would take a bit more time to know you?

6.Ask how we met?

from another user

All of the questions were about the petitioner:

Where was I born? (City, State)

Where did we meet?

When did we meet?

Where do I stay when I visit? (City and name of the place)

How many times have I visited?

When did I visit? (Months)

Was I there now? (He explained yes outside waiting)

How old was I?

Where do I work?

What do I do for a living?

Where do I currently live?

When did we get engaged?
