Congrats to all who have made it this far... and best wishes to those who are still waiting  (JIM!?!?)

 

I remember busting this K1 application into FEDEX (Kinkos 24 hour) 10:00pm on a Sunday night back in October....    Then the waiting... and waiting... and fretting... and irritating SAGOT   LOL

 

 

 

Fiance's Interview was yesterday Feb 8th in Manila ... CEAC status says "ISSUED" as of this morning.

 

Word of note:   The interviewer was a PHALLUS (trying to be polite)

 

He grilled her and accused her of just wanting a green card. 

 

He told her "You do know you are number 3 - are you ok with that?    You are ok that he was arrested for Domestic Violence?   No woman wants that - it seems to me you are in it just for the visa"

 

She had a copy of the court transcripts/official records from 1999 and says - "No - the charges were dropped.  He was not convicted of Domestic Violence" as she pointed to the checkbox where it shows Counts 1 and 2 were dismissed.   Kept grilling her over stupid things.     :o

 

Now we just waiting for the courier to deliver to the mall.    And then that stupid CFR or whatever that is. :jest:

 

 

Congrates, what an ###, if he wasn't going to denie it he should have left it alone! Good luck with her CFO, it's easy.

Oh and for the curious... 

 

They called her back out of her seat while she was waiting after the first interview to produce her Police Clearances... remember this is why I pulled my hair out.    

 

So she produced the one from Macau - no problem.  But then told her she did not have one from Dubai.    They said OK and didnt ask anything else.

Hey JStryker

HOLY PHALLUS BATMAN!!!

 

Real nice of him to try to put doubts in her mind.

I'm sure mine will get grilled for the multiple ex's as well.

What did he expect your Fiancee to say "Yeah thanks Sir. you are right I better just forget this whole thing" LOL

 

Anyway she will be with you soon don't forget the P1620 exit fee or what ever it is leaving airport, CFO stamp, hmmm what else

My fiancé went to his interview today. He said it went ok but they couldn't tell him that he was approved because his medical results hadn't reached the embassy yet. So now, we are in AP status. Hopefully the medical is ok :)

Congrats on the interview. We had ours on the 8th also and are now waiting for the courier. I am having an issue with the ceac website. None of the clickable boxes work (I've used Chrome/IE/Safari) and the document delivery instructions box is not populated. Her appointment history shows "scheduled". Her appointment confirmation did have the document delivery information correct with her home address. Anyone have similar issues? I was able to send an email to the contractor that manages the website but that might be a gamble at best. I imagine the best thing to do would be to call the Embassy on Monday to confirm they have the correct information.
