Hello all, my wife's visa was approved today. Everything went smooth. They asked her for my 2011 W2. Visa and passport Will be delivered to the pickup location and they did not want to deliver to the home address.

The question asked were:

Who is sponsoring you?

Where does your husband work?

How do you know each other and for how long?

How do you communicate with your husband and how often do you speak to him?

When did you get married and how long was he in india after the marriage?

Can you tell what he did last weekend?

Can i see the pictures?

Interview was done in 5 mins.

I would like to thank VJ for helping us and keeping us strong through this tedious process.

I hope you have received the passport with the visa. I just have an question please share when you went to pick up a passport did they give you silver packet open or closed? Thanks

Tycoon, what I heard from my Wife is that she was given her passport and a sealed packet. I am not sure if it was silver Or not but whatever packet they give you it has be sealed and can Only be opened at POE by immigration officer.

How long did it take for them to have your passport ready for pickup? I am thinking to buy ticket for my wife after she gets approval.
