Thats wonderful. Good Luck!!! I didn't know they did interviews on Fridays. Maybe there are trying to get rid of backlog before Christmas. In a way, I'm hoping we get interviewed by the end of this

Just got my interview date too.. 28th Jan.. I was hoping on something sooner than that.. but at least it's done now

Oh awesome!! I was just coming on here to check if there were any updates haha. Now on to the next confusing thing, I'm looking at paying the $240 visa fee thing and we have to make a profile at the USTraveldocs site which I have done. It says in the instructions here http://www.ustraveldocs.com/au/au-niv-paymentinfo.asp#overview that we need to click schedule appointment and set that up, I'm just making sure this is something we do and not something that is pre-loaded into the system for us since we get told when our interview will be? Also the first question when you click schedule is whether it's an immigrant or non-immigrant visa, this point confuses me a lot for the K1 because for some things it seems to be immigrant and some things it seems to be non-immigrant!

Hey Chestnutt,

You will need to create it because before you have your interview you will need to have filled in the online DS-160 and have paid the fee. Try to get it all completed ahead of time because its another one of those long repeat all of your infomation we have already done.

hopefully when you are approved you wont be stuck in visa limbo like me :)

Thanks for the reply! I have filled out my DS-160 already and I have been given my interview date, so now I need to log into that site and schedule the visa interview with the date and details that the consulate gave me so I can pay my fee?

Yeah I hope it goes smoothly, sorry to hear you're in limbo :(

Haha all good mate. Yes it will guide you step by step and at the end it will give you a receipt and PDF etc that you print off and take to the interview.

It will seem kinda daunting at first, but its over quick and they dont ask any super hard questions :) I was done in maybe 5 mins, and the hardest thing they asked was what does his family think of you :P

chin up and good luck!
