Thank you so much san83, danson11 & nertilduraku :D

My interview was at 12pm, and I was heading out at 1:15pm. Everything was very smooth and quick I think!

First I had a pre-interview, they requested my police certificate, 2 photos, medical and proof of relationship ( I brought with me a LOT of evidence: cards, chats, photos, photo album, bank statements, insurance card, etc, etc )

The questions of the pre-interview were:

- Have you been in the U.S? How long?

- When and how did you meet?

- When did you become boyfriend and girlfriend?

- How many times have you visited him? and how many times your husband has visited you?

- When was your wedding? Who was at the wedding?

- Does your spouse speak Spanish?

- Do you speak English?

- What's your occupation? What does your spouse do for living?

- Where does your spouse live in the US? Who does your spouse live with?

- Was your spouse or you married before?

And I think that was all, then I had to wait for the final interview with the CO (this interview was in English), a very nice man, he only checked my documentation, and said: Thank you so much for bringing so much evidence, I like the photo album, who made it?, I explained it was a gift from my husband, then he went: oh! very nice pictures!, enjoy the U.S, your visa is approved! it will take around 4 business days once you send us the call center's confirmation page to pick up your documents.

And that's it! I was nervous the day before, but there's no need to be nervous, just bring everything you need. A lot of people there were sent back because they were missing documentation.

Just got our interview this morning. Visa was approved

Hi dears , happy for both you?

Congrats!!!!!

Hi guys!

I just came back from the Interview and my visa was approved! :)

I only have to deal now with a call center for the embassy to send my passport to the post office and finally pick it up.

@sf786 I hope everything get resolved soon so you can flight to the U.S with your husband. Best wishes to you! (F)
