CFO question

I am putting together a detailed instructions and documents packet for my fiancee. I wasn't able to find it, but will the CFO seminar TAKE away original copies of CENOMAR, birth certificate, etc?

She will have several copies of each AND the original, but I was unsure if they would take an original away from her. She will soon acquire these documents and attend CFO before her embassy interview. Unusual, but we discussed and this is how we want to do it. She will take the certificate and Visa to acquire the sticker.

CFO will want to see the original and keep a copy of the CENOMAR and birth certificate.

Thanks Hank!

I have been working on a folder (with instructions) based upon your guide and Greenbaum's guide. I know it will be tough enough for her to go to all of the appointments and make all those copies, so I am doing as much as I can first.

I have information overload right now. This helps!

CFO is not all that intense. CFO only going into "information overload" when they get a person that is very meek and timid. That is why it is stressed so often on here to be confident and self-assured, looking the CFO personal in the eyes when answering questions. They see weakness in a person is akin to a shark smelling blood, that is when CFO gets more demanding... most times it is a breeze.

I sat waited outside when my wife did her CFO, there was a cafe on the corner so it wasn't too bad waiting.

The CFO wants copies.

There is nothing unusual about completing the CFO class before the interview. Chinook did just that. Then, after she received her visa, she went back and got the sticker. It was quick and easy.

Thanks for reassuring. Maybe we will do CFO in a couple of weeks. I think it will give us a nice goal while we wait for the interview.

They accommodate 30 in the morning and 30 in the afternoon every day except Thursday and Friday - on these two days they still do 30 in the mornings but only 15 per afternoon session.
