friends here is the experience of the interview .

my wife reached at visa shuttle service at 5am . gates open at 6am.she was number 4 at the female counter for token to get in to shuttle to embassy . she waiting in the shuttle area for the bus and soon the bus arrived. try to get earliest token from the counter if your interview time is 7am . it really speed up your complete process. after getting off at embassy . you have to show your passport and interview letter to the first check post . and pass thru security scan . once cleared you will be sitting in waiting area . then they will call you for the biometrics. make sure you have your passport and passport size photographs in hand and also your nikah nama and true translation. once done with the biometrics u will be required to provide 2 phone numbers for courier service to call you once ur visa arrives in ur city . after this you have to wait for the interview . remember if you chose to give interview in urdu you will be in different queue list and if english its different. as per my wife experience ppl in english language interview were few she was 2nd in the queue. at her turn a american officer greeted her at the counter and asked following questions :

who is calling u ? ans: husband

what's his name ?

which category he applied for you ?

how long he has been living in USA ?

where does he live and where does he work ?

how long have u been married ? and who attended the marriage from usa ?

(during your response make proper eye contact with officer and stay calm and try to show the pictures of your marriage while responding it creates good impression on officer )

he asked who is your joint sponser ? (in my case )

he asked where does he work ?

after this he looked in to few papers and said congratulations you are approved and will receive your passpot in 10 days .(she received her passport 3rd day :-)

(note : if they dont tell you about your interview conclusion ask in a very respectful manner that what should i tell my peitioner about the results ??. this will make you more relax until you get the passport . )

it took only 1 hour and 30 min for the complete process from reaching embassy and done with everything. hope this experience help ppl .

IF YOUR CASE IS GENUINE STAY CALM YOU ARE APPROVED .

try to take as much documents as you can because u never know what they demand. GOOD LUCK TO ALL FRIENDS stay blessed AMEEN
