Interview Details

[Neya 0]

Segun's interview today was mostly a lot of waiting. He said once he was finally called after waiting almost 6 hours the interview was fast. His CO was a woman and she first asked for his paperwork. He also gave her the file I had prepared. Then she asked some basic information about me from it such as my name, DOB, where I work, what type of work I do. He said the CO would look at the papers then ask a question from them. She then asked some questions about his son who was not present(we did not intend to get his son a visa today but he was included per instructions). She asked him to hand over his passport, birth certificate, police report and medical results. He gave her everything except the medical results but he did give her the receipt where he had taken his medical. On it was the date when the results would be available. She told him he should return within 2 weeks after the medical resultsare in to have his visa issued. She gave him an appointment date and a form that would allow him to get in.

As has been said before each interview/interviewer is different. For his she never asked to see any pictures at all....not a one(here we were stressing about them wondering if we had enough). She was impressed with the folder I had put together and she looked through that a lot. He didnt say if she asked to see our emails, IM's or phone records but since they were in the folder she may have just looked at them.

On a side note Segun did say there were a lot of people there for tourist visas and they all were rejected. Also he saw a man on a K3 visa get rejected because he could answer the simple question of who filled out his forms. He said he did but as it turned out the man didnt even know how to write. The CO said that the marriage was a sham and rejected the guy. Another guy was rejected because his police report was too old.

I hope this helps everyone. Next......MASTERPIECE....

Thanks for the info about the interview.

Neya, this seemingly belated congratulations can be attributed to the little vacation off the web that i took....just did not want to come across one more silly "evidence" and go nuts....

Happy for you both...

Congrats to you Neya, now the real test is when your partner gets here, it'll be his choice once all the paperwork is completed if he wants to stay with you or not. Don't mean to rain on your parade, but it's true, however, I wish you both all the best !!!!

Should this relationship not work out I will do as I have done to ALL of my past disappointments and life lessons....I WILL KEEP ON LIVING AND LOOKING TOWARD THE FUTURE AND NOT CLING TO THE PAST...

Yes, I have been disappointed before and as long as I keep on breathing I may be disappointed again but that will never stop me from dreaming and reaching for new high and experiences. I refused to be held down by my past. Can you say the same?

[masterpiece 2]

Wow! Talk about giving with one hand while snatching with another. All nerve fibres within me insist that "Idontcare" meant to "pour sand sand for person garri". Tsk! Tsk!! Tsk!!!

I do not care for those who try to juxtapose their experiences on others. Life does not work that way and hey last time i checked, its all about a leap of faith and this leap may be a short distance or even across the ocean but nonetheless it remains a leap, frought with all the potential heartaches or bliss. Do we fold up, implode or retreat into a shell like the tortoise or plod along?

Whatever we choose to do, this thread was not the ideal time to "remind" Neya of the possibilities. Surely there`s a time to be born and a time to die......a time to reap and a time to sow. Idontcare, I suggest you learn a little bit more about timing.
