Hi Folks ! here is my CR1 interview experience in casablanca/ Morocco !!

I won't go into great depth as I'll be just repeating the many reviews already submitted.

My appointment was scheduled for April 1st / 8.00am and I arrived at 7.15 am ! Just as I walked up, the security guard said : all Immigrant visa Applicants appointments form a queue over there. So I joined that queue! we were about 3 people, but by 7:45 the queue had already quadrupled!

At 8:00 am the security guard let me straight through after checking my interview letter ( to verify if my name exists in the list of that day Interviews) , and then through the metal detector (checking for weapons I suppose LOL ) ,. after the security check I walked all the way round the consulate to get inside. Once inside , I went through a window where a Moroccan young lady asked for my passport , interview letter and 2 photos ! then they ushered me through !!

Once I was inside the building, there was another check point , I went through the stationary detector , and the security officer asked if I had anything to declare ( cell phone , laptop …) , so you’d better not to bring anything extra , just your paperwork and yourself :P

After that , I went into a large room with about 7 windows for people to conduct interviews , About 40 mins later my name was announced by a Moroccan lady to come to window 1 !!! she was veeeery nice and friendly , she returned some of the NVC and Original docs and asked me to give her all my NEW docs and phone number , then she asked If I had already traveled abroad ! where ? when ? and for how long ? is this our 1st marriage ? and which language I would love my interview to be in ? !! she then said to have a seat and I would be called for finger printing later . Oh and then with a huuuuuuge smile she wished me good luck! :yes::wow:

After 10 mins , I was called for fingerprinting , and I sat back down again !! my name was re-announced after 15 mins for the actual interview ! the CO was a very sweeeeeeet , adorable American lady , Made me swear I was telling the truth, then asked me few questions :

how did you meet?
How did he immigrate to the USA? And when ?

What does he do?

Has he ever visited after marriage ?

When did you get married?

Have you ever had trouble with the police LOL ? :o :innocent:

What does he do in his free time !! hhhh I expected that Question !!!

Was out of there by 10: 15 am !! the interview was very smooth , pleasant and so much easier than I expected ! I really couldn't have hoped for a better experience !! And I can't believe that we have been APPROVED! yaaaaay :dance::dance::dance:
