I wonder if having your USC Call the $8 number would help... I really don't understand how they can just leave people in AP without rhyme or reason... and not explain anything.. it's like they want you to give up...

~ Jan ??,2013 ~ Service Center ~ Vermont I-129F Packet sent

NOTE: Actual sent date unknown due to lawyer negligence - I delivered ALLForms and PAID Lawyer on Nov 7, 2012 - Lawyer kept saying he sent the packet and USCIS must have lost it. When in reality he failed to send the package and only a new copy to USCIS after I made a legal written demand giving him 10 days to perform or return ALL monies paid to him, due to "non-performance".

(IMO it's better to save your money for visits to or from your Fiancé and just fill it out yourself using the K-1 Guide on VJ and Senior Members... They Rock!!!)

THanks so much for all of the information... well Aug 4 is the day we have our interview. I am will be present, any suggestions on how to calm the nerves? Are the questions they ask pretty basic for myself and my fiancée? Lastly, do you recommend a hotel close to the new consulate to crash for the night? I fly in early morning the day of the interview and then hopefully we can celebrate and relax.

If approved, how long on average does it take for him to receive his visa in hand?

Hi, check the consulate's reviews. Many have included the questions they were asked and hotel information as well as tips from how to take your documents to where to sit. There is also a wiki on interview questions on VJ.
