How beautiful. Congratulations.

Thank you! <3

For those who are done with their interview (congratulation), did your spouse accompany you to your interview?

Yes, in this case I accompanied my husband for his interview in Naples, Italy, it definitely helps in many ways: case support, moral, and emotional support :)

1 week until our interview....I am getting sooo nervous! :goofy:

Good luck! You will do fine as you have the good vibes of us the VJers upon you :) Edited by Chiquitabella29

You report was well written and touched me deeply....I am pretty sure I will be feeling those emotions pretty soon, God willing.

Good luck to both of you and God bless you.

Amen, you as well.

I just showed up with him. I should add, every embassy/consulate is different though. Naples let me in without question but Im not sure if your embassy needs a heads up, I would check with the embassy specific info on the NVC site or send them a quick email. I should also add, that my consulate said on their website that "spouse need not be present and might no be able to come into the consulate as space is limited" obviouslt I ignored this advise and still showed up but Naples does not have a big volume of interviews on any given day. Today, there were only about 20 of us, maybe a little less.

Hope this helps.

Thank you.Its States that spouses should make every effort to accompany the applicant unless other wise said etc. Some website said, spouses can't. But I'll have my husband call when he get here next week.

If your embassy states that, then I dont think it would be an issue if the spouse shows up. To feel safe, still try to get clarification from them :)
