You need to renew your passport. It needs to be valid for at least 6 months after the interview. Do it asap!


Congrats on your interview date.

Now read up on your consulate! Read all the reviews!

CONGRATS!!! Please update your timeline

Your wife does not need to be there but it does not hurt your case to show her passport during the interview

My husband was asked when the last visit was and he said she is here right now and showed my passport

Bring all evidence sent in already and especially copies of all certified copies--they will only give you the original marriage, police, birth cert, divorce papers back if they have the copies-so bring them copies

Bring more photos and when the CO asks does your mom approve of this relationship say Yes and here is a picture of them together on her last or first visit

Never mention that she is my princess or my queen

Get a new passport NOW- and keep your old one to bring both to the interview. never throw the old one away

Most male Egyptians will go through AP-especially now with the turmoil in Egypt

There are some people still in AP for over 9 months-make sure your wife contacts her congressman after 4 weeks of AP and get him involved

Good Luck

plz update your timeline

Sept 11, 2011 NOA2-took 19 days to get case number

3-just say the truth

4-No, They wont let her in

5- wait till after the interview and make sure to tell the consular officer that.

6- mostly Males, Am one of them.

Hey Shekho

Can you please tell me if you had to translate any of your documents from Arabic to English?

Thanks in advance and wish you luck at your interview.
