My parents had their interview this morning in London and were approved :D Finally after 15 months, we are done. I will post a detailed review when I Skype with them this weekend, but they were asked the following:

Who I was

Where I lived

What did I do

When they were planning to go to the US

Where they were going to live when they got there

My Mum was also asked a trick question asking if she had been to Colorado before as there was someone there with her maiden name. Weird question to ask but she answered no and told the immigration person that you can't catch me out, lol!

Thank you to everyone who has helped me with questions along the way, especially Saylin and D-Wheels. I couldn't have got through all the paperwork without all your expert advice. To anyone else that is still waiting, keep the faith and you will be reunited with your family soon :)

Congrats Collie!! So glad it's over for you all at last :)

Approved!!! My husband was approved this morning. He said he has too much paperwork. They didn't take our 2013 tax info and it was easier than he expected! They asked him how we met and when we go

Congraaaats! I'm happy for your parents and your family, your journey has been very tiring, I will remember the Northern Ireland NVC dilemma!!! ;-) Edited by MsGoyave

Congratulations, happy for you, it's about time!. It appears Paris embassy does not follow any particular logic. I will be calling later to find out about our case (CC May 27)

Thank you! Yes, Paris seems to just do whatever they want. Especially when it involves being on holidays every other day. I hope you get good news soon.

This is great news! Thanks for the response. I am still a bit pessimistic on a July interview for our case, but huh who knows? Was it easy to book for the medical? Did the doctor have many slots available (worrying about this too - amongst many other things - as I don't live in Paris). So happy for you, you waited a long time and now you finally know when you will be with your loved one! :-)

Thank you! Crossing fingers for you to get an interview in July. We really hoped for June so I know how you must feel...

It was quite easy to book the medical, except that I had to call twice to go through the voicemail. The lady was a bit worried there would not be appointment slots available for the day I asked for (I am not in Paris neither so I needed the day before or max the two days before) but she came back to me saying it was all good for the 1st early in the morning and that all will be done by the end of the day so ready for the interview.
