Alics, that's awesome! did you have to get Police report? do you need Package 3 first to request that police report? or what dpocumentation is needed to request it? trying to be ahead of the game and seeing what my fiancee can do before she gets Package 3. Any suggestions?

Yeah, I got the Police report. You don`t need package 3 in order to do that, I did it before, I think it`s available 6 months (but this depends from a country to another, you better ask first). I already knew what are the requirments for package 3 so I scheduled my medical and police before receiving phone call from Embassy. You need to go at the Police Station and ask what documents you need for that (it can be different). Also I asked my fiance to send me the needed papers (as required in K1 Guide from VisaJourney), work, bank, letter of intent, copy of NOA2, W2, two pay stubs (check the Guide). This is what I did, trying to be ready with everything when Embassy calls me, so that`s why it looks really fast, I am kinda organized. I want to spend 4th of July with him :wub:

Great, Thanks!

Yup, i am trying to be organized too and trying to get even extra stuff. For example for Naturalized Citizens copy of all pages of Passport is not a requirement. Just Citizenship Certificate. but I submited passport anyway, just in case. so trying to do the same thing with my next steps:) It is kind of hard as there are not a lot of people are going thorugh the same country im going thorugh:)

And yay for July 4th. that's exciting. Welcome soon to the country;)

That`s awesome ! What`s the date when you`ve been approved? Your petition is at NVC? You need to call them to give you another number so you can track your package until it arrives at the Embassy !

Great, Thanks!

My fiance is Naturalized Citizen also, we sent only a copy of his Naturalization Certificate. You think it`s needed to take with me his passport pics? I don`t think is neccesary. I admit that I had some help from some girls (from my country, found them here on VJ) that already been thru this process and they helped me with infos.

Tomorrow is the big day, Interview :dancing::clock:

I wouldn't worry about. I was just freaking out and sent a lot of extras just to make sure they would have no excuse for RFE:) and it worked out. if you are already at the interview stage, no point in overthinking. Like you said earlier, just relax, positive thinking and be honest and everything is going to be fine!

GOOD LUCK!!!!!

My interview was scheduled at 1pm. I got there 30 minutes earlier. After security check, I got inside the Embassy where I had to give my passport, at another window my fingerprints were taken, after that they called my name at the first window to give all the documents needed, then go to another window to pay the Visa Fee, and then wait to have the interview. I waited around 15 minutes. There were 3 other people (Diversity Visa). I was the third one to be interviewed.
I had around 10-12 questions asked:

In what language I communicate with my fiance (because he wasn`t born in the US). My fiance's birthday? How we met? His parents name? Where do they live? What`s my fiance job? When he came to visit? When he proposed? If we established a date for the wedding? Wedding Plans? If my parents will attend at the wedding? If I met his parents?


.... "your Visa is approved"


Everyone was nice and calm...really friendly

Good luck all !

Initial Review

On June 2, 2014, your Alien Registration Number was changed relating to your I129F, PETITION FOR FIANCE(E). Please check our website at www.uscis.gov for further updates on your case. Please wait until the end of normal processing time before calling customer service at 1-800-375-5283 for live assistance. I was hoping they'd be faster .... we we're hopefully wishing to get married by at least the end of October cause I was travelling back to Egypt cause I work there in a university ... I guess after reading these post we'd have to cross our finger and pray they'd go faster :cry:
