Each consulate has their own policies, though I think that having the petitioner there is a good thing, as it can save time across several fronts...instead of having to set the case aside (221g) to have other questions asked from afar or pictures brought in or who knows what....besides, if one is going to interview the folks separately, well, having the other person there at the same time is exactly what is needed.

Where the blue passport carrying Amcit is not welcome is at the tourist visa interview, along with his/her foreign GF/BF....his/her presence will have (generally) no beneficial input, they are not supposed to be there in the first place, and a CO interviews the applicant, not other third parties...besides, do you really think that asking the BF/GF if there is going to be a mind change during baggage claim is going to generate any other response other than. 'oh, gosh, no, we would never to do that...'...

My fiancé completed his interview today successfully! I didn't attend the interview with him.

It's went very smoothly, the CO officer doing the interview was very friendly and sweet. They asked simple questions about how we met, when was the last time we saw each other, where do I live and what do I do, have we traveled together (they asked because we have proof of going to Istanbul together), where did we get our tattoos done, and what's the name of the place we met.

After that, the CO officer congratulated him and said he can pick up his visa tomorrow. ☺️

I'm happy beyond words. Thanks for all your help, everyone!

My fiancé completed his interview today successfully! I didn't attend the interview with him.

It's went very smoothly, the CO officer doing the interview was very friendly and sweet. They asked simple questions about how we met, when was the last time we saw each other, where do I live and what do I do, have we traveled together (they asked because we have proof of going to Istanbul together), where did we get our tattoos done, and what's the name of the place we met.

After that, the CO officer congratulated him and said he can pick up his visa tomorrow. ☺️

I'm happy beyond words. Thanks for all your help, everyone!

Congratulations!!
