Hey everyone,

My fiance entered the US this past Friday-- exactly 6 months since our NOA1! I am soooo happy to be "done" with this phase and for us to be together! Good luck to everyone... the wait is well worth all the stress. (L)

Congrats! :D

POE was "OK". He said the interview there was more stressful than the one at the embassy! They asked him basic questions about my job, when we're getting married etc but the guy was just rude and kept cutting him off. All in all, it went ok. His flight landed at 1:50pm and we were together by 3:20pm. So, everything including baggage claim took 1.5 hours. Not bad.

congrats! my visa status says ISSUED now . im waiting to pick up my passport and leave :)

how was the POE experience?

After 3 long months of waiting we finally got our interview date last night!!! And it's for tomorrow! (tonight for my fiance') To say I am nervous is an understatement. So thankful I called the embassy, and they actually let me speak to someone. After talking to the gentleman, he said our case somehow managed to fall through the cracks, and we should've had our interview a month ago. He was very apologetic, and that's the reason for scheduling the interview so soon. I'm just so glad we actually got it!

Thank you Georgia! We had our interview today. We were APPROVED!! :dancing: I am so so so happy. He said the interview was fairly easy. He did say the guy asked him "when's the last time you saw Lauren?" Trying to trick him or throw him off. Other than that, everything was pretty simple.

For those who are done with the process and have flown to the US, I have a question to ask.

For the flight ticket, it's cheaper for me to buy a fan fare from Cathay Pacific but the problem is there's a return flight and it's a two-way flight. Is this okay? I worry they might question why it isn't a one-way flight and doubt everything and may think I have intentions in coming back to my country when really, I'm just in it because it's cheaper. Any insight on this?

Most people buy a return because it's cheaper. I did for us too and just cancelled the return flight when I got here. No problems at all
