February 2015 IR-1 / CR-1 Filers

[jojo777 0]

Hi jojo777,

After you get the interview letter in email, you should schedule the medical soon. NVC doesn't require any documents from you at this point. At the interview, you will bring originals and copies and the consulate will keep some copies of documents they may need. Medical checkup, once you schedule and attend, it will be about 6 hours to get the results on same day in hand.

Schedule biometrics at least 1 day before interview @

Hi Jayisis

I got the interview date of Dec 21.

I will schedule the medical soon.

Should I schedule the biometrics date now on https://cgifederal.secure.force.com/ ? I checked online and found that we can book the biometrics date even for Sunday. Can we do that?

And do we have to pay any fee online or offline for biometrics?

In medical letter, all fees have been written. Is there anything else we have to pay in medical?

Before or after visa interview, do we have to pay anything?

Thanks

Thank you everyone!

I arrived at USEM at 12:20 and my appointment was at 12:30. When I got in I had to give some additional documents that embassy had asked to Indonesian lady at counter no 7. I waited for 1.5 hours till I finally got called into a small room with a window as separator between me and the officer. CO was beautiful white lady and she was so nice. Did my fingerprint and oath.

The interview itself was pretty fast and went for about 12-15 mins. I couldn't tell precisely cause I was so nervous and did not even take not on what time I got called. Some questions she asked were:

1. Who petitioned for you?

2. Where did you meet your husband?

3. How long have you been married?

4. How long have you been in a relationship before the wedding?

5. Where did you guys get married?

6. Was it a big wedding or at a court?

7. Where does he live now?

8. Are you going to live at same place or move?

9. What is your husband's job?

10. What does the company mainly do?

11. When did he start this new job? (He started 2 weeks ago so I had to give CO new AOS docs with the new offer letter that stating his new salary)

12. Have you met his family? Has he met your family?

13. Has he visited you?

Then next questions were about me since I was an international student before.

1. Where did you go to school?

2. Did you finish your school?

3. Did you do any internship/job after you graduated? Where?

4. Have you ever overstayed your tourist visa?

5. What is your current job?

6. Have you ever been arrested by police or immigrant officer?

7. When will you fly back to America?

Those were the questions she asked. I have memorized mostly about my husband and his family but then she also asked a lot of questions about me haha. After that she said, "Congratulations, your visa has been approved! Welcome!" and I said thank you. Before I left she said "Have a safe travel!" I replied "Thank you and have a good day!"

So happy and so relieved. Thank you Jesus for this smooth interview.

Hope I'm able to help you through this review
