I had a moment of epiphany seeing the US flag waiving proud and tall.

I think this is the first I'm seeing the flag in a hoisted position in a foreign country in 30 years.

Oh I remember that feeling when I went to embassy to get my passport there. When i went inside and coming in the interview room seeing the flag in the corner i put hand on heart and tears just came down. Man nothing like it.heart.gif

Yippee!!!! Praise the Lord! SoSo happy to hear this mehn!!!! Congrats again!!! Please details.... Mine is in a few days!

It's going to take more time to write a proper review but a few quick pointers.

The beneficiary has to become an expert on you and especially on the info you both provided to them on the forms.

The critical, imho, is the conversation between the co and the beneficiary to judge how well meshed the relationship is.

Previous denial came up and we now know why she was denied and it was her error in response, age came up - I'm 22 year's older than my Wife - if she was older I felt it would have been an issue, names of folks in pictures came up as well as time line of relationship. All basic stuff that we covered the night before.

Good luck.
