INTERVIEW

[NYGirl 0]

Can someone please tell me from their own experience or heard from someone else how long is the interview, what do they usually ask and do they really look at all those papers that your fiance bring with him?

NYgirl, i researched your question too. It seems like if all of the paperwork is there, it's not bad. But if there are loose ends such as previous marriages, or missing paperwork, it can be a stressful hassle. I've heard of interviews only lasting a few minutes and some that lasted a couple of hours.

I can't wait to find out my girl-friend's experience!

what are you filing for, K-1? My now husband interview time wasn't set, but we arrived at the consulate like at 6 in the mornig there was a long line. He got in there like at 8 then they called him like at 9 or so. He said that when he went in the interview was like less then ten minutes but we waited till 1pm to get his visa, the printing was what took a long time.

I suppose that would depend on the consulate. My wife waited 4 hours for a 10 minute interview. All her paperwork was complete and in order and she was asked only four questions. That was it....

So he got his visa the same day? That's great! Why do some get it mailed and others get it the same day?

I think I'm going to be mad if I show up with all these stamps that they ask for if I end up getting the visa the same day LOL

My interview was in Lima, Peru. I had all my papers in order. I was single and she was divorced once. The interview took maybe 5 minutes. For me ... hours !! .. they asked me:

1.- How many times has you been in USA

2.- How long ?, How many time was the longest ?

3.- When have you met ?

4.- Where have you met ?

5.- Why you were there ?, for business ?, what kind of business ?

6.- How old is she ?

7.- Are you single ?

8.- Do you have kids ?

9.- What she does for living ?

That's all ...

4 hours for 10 minutes? That reminds me of my Dr's office. LOL

You won't be getting it the same day unless you have a reason for it. I have heard of people going back to the Frankfurt consulate two days after the interview to pick it up but I don't think they'll print it right that day. Make sure nothing is missing for the interview and you'll have the visa within a week.

My interview itself lastet maybe 5 minutes without the waiting in between. Alltogether I was in there for maybe 25 minutes.

Hallo!

Well, a week isn't bad. I'd rather them mail it than wait forever to get it there. LOL

Oh, what time did you go to the interview? I'm trying to figure out what time I should be out there standing in line.

what happens if there is child who will NOT follow you?

just a curious question

also, when paying for your visa and vaccinations and exams, does it have to be in dollars or their own money?
