After getting my approval, I was very scared to travel to the US because of fair that they might send me back home. Yesterday I travelled to the states, and while they asked me a few questions, they did allow me through. So happy to be able to spend the holidays and my anniversary with my husband! Now I await NVC, but with the holidays it might not be until next year, wish for more approval for everyone. I was approved by the 5th and they didn't update the app until the 12th. I think its to give NVC more time. 

That’s great. Enjoy the holidays. Cheers to many years together. 🍾 what did they ask you ?

My husband hasn't been visiting because he is self-employed and this year has been very busy for him, so they asked a lot about why he hasn't visited etc, they ask about my job, they ask how often I visit, which stage is my petition now, they ask if my husband has kids and if they live with him. They ask what is my reason for travelling and when I was gonna go back. They searched all my luggage. Lots more casual questions but it was alright.

Happy Holidays everyone. I think I'm going to take a break and will be back in Jan. Hopefully early 2018 will bring us the good news we want. Merry Christmas and a Happy new year to everyone on this forum.

So they waited for after you got your luggages ? Thank you for the detailed response.

That’s quick. How much are the fees during the NVC stage? Did you call to get the number or waited for the welcome letter?

 Know i should probably take a break and enjoy the holidays but somehow can’t stop thinking about it so I have another question: whats the invoice number. And what’s the difference between the invoice and case number ?
