I had an interview earlier today and it went well. I had a nice Filipino consul and a nice American consul (she looks like a Chinese lady). Questions were easy. I asked the CO if I am approved and she just answered, "I think I have all the documents needed, just wait for your number to be flashed on the screen". My number was flashed at window 72 and the guy told me that I can go home and wait for a text message from 2GO. I'm approved right!? hahaha

I just want to thank all VJer's who helped me and answered all my questions especially Mr. Hank_.. Thank you so much!!! :)

Now I had to wait for my visa and schedule my CFO seminar..

Good luck to all!!

Wow Congrats!

I'm hoping to get my NOA2 soon :)

Congrats :) i am happy for you :) can you share the questions of the consul?

These are the questions:

*Who is the petitioner

*How old is he?

*What does he do?

*Is he married before?

*Why his past marriage didn't work out?

*Does he has a child?

*How many times he visited you? When?

*What are your plans once you arrived in US?

*Have you been married before?

*Where did you met him? (online- Filipino cupid)

*How long have you been a member of that site before you met him?

I wrote my embassy reviews here... I believed its on my timeline.. :)
