[Kev&Manda 2]

@ the interview they asked my wife,

Where do I work?

What do I do at work?

Do I have any kids?

How many times I visit her after the wedding?

Do we talk everyday?

When did we meet?

How many guests at the wedding?

& she asked to see some photo's of the wedding, we gave her two albums, she looked at the first two pages and that was it.

Approved!

i had my interview last may 22, 2014..CO asked the following:

how we meet

when we meet in person

asked me if i worked in other country and when (i worked in saudi for 3 years)

asked for our photos together (when the consul saw our pics, she asked my height and she estimated my fiance's height lol)

how many brothers and sisters does he have and if they are married

and if i talked to his parents

CO was very nice,she made me feel comfortable..

Unless you give a reason for the CO to suspect fraud, questions will be simple and direct like that one. Just look the CO in the eye and politely and calmly answer them. If questions start to get more difficult, even if they get personal, don't grab the bait. Do the same thing: Look the CO in the eye and politely and calmly answer them.

The chance of getting hard questions is very small, so don't even worry about it. But if the CO throws you that curve ball, be ready for him, and you will have no problem.

Most important: Bring the right documents. When Candy went for her interview, she reported that an astounding number of ladies failed to bring in the right documents, not even knowing what they needed or did not need.

Aside from the questions listed by Einah, you'll see more PH embassy reviews here: http://www.visajourney.com/reviews/index.php?cnty=Philippines&cty=&dfilter=5

Just select your visa type on the upper rightmost dropdown menu, can't tell if you're a K1 or IR1/CR1 from your profile.

Most questions are about things your already knew - yourself, the petitioner, and your relationship. I know I stressed out when I did mine, but I don't think it is something you have to worry about. My advise, in addition to everybody else's, is be straightforward with your answers. My interview only lasted 2 mins, the rest are just awkward silence while CO scans my docs, note them, etc. So I think I was in the room for 5 mins.

Good luck!

I just read a post about someone who ran into trouble because her USC fiance had criminal convictions that he hid from her, and the CO knew about them. When the CO asked her about any criminal record by him, she said NO.

None of the convictions made him ineligible to be a petitioner on a K-1. All he had to do was come clean to her so she would come to the interview armed with the truth and then no problems.

Just a lesson for those petitioners who think they are helping by hiding something from their fiances.

I agree totally.... no secrets from your fiancee... it will come to bite you in the a$$

First of all, make sure you are not hide anything from your fiancée. Secondly, send her form I-129F that you have already filled out for petition ( my husband sent me all papers via email so I knew all information that he put there). Ask her to study all your information there. There is another post that his fiancée has been put under administrative review, I believe, because she did not know her fiancé's past. The rest of it, I think she can answered it easily if both of you have known each other very closely. Good luck for the interview.

Any documents/proofs i need to photocopy?

[Hank_ 9,174]

Follow the embassy instructions letter as to what copies are needed.

I brought copies of everything we submitted (ALL the forms, chats printout, phone bills showing how often we talk over the phone, his bank statements, tax docs, photos together) during my interview but the CO didn't ask for any.

Besides getting a workout carrying the weight, what did you lose? I am a fan of carrying too much because the one thing you don't bring is the one thing you will get 221(g) for.

Glad your interview went well.

Keep it simple and bring what the embassy asked for in their instruction letter. They never asked for anything but what was in the letter unless something is being withheld. Good luck to those going through the process.
