Okay...here are the results...you let me know what we should think...

fiance was asked a bunch of questions to include where we met, how we met, what I do, when we plan to get married, write our names - all of which he did correctly, he also showed them the pictures of us together as well as emails and letters we have sent to each other...the man looked through all of our stuff and then was apparently going to say congratulations - instead he only said part of it congrats and then stopped, he gave my fiance his passport and said that there would be no more interviews. The embassy will call him in 1-2 months, at that time he should send his passport by DHL back to the embassy...hmmm....he also asked the security guy at the embassy what to think and he said that he got the visa. What do you think??? Let me know...I plan on emailing the embassy and asking them to clarify.

That's nice, it basically means everything went well

it sounds like exactly what happened at my fiance's interview, the officer told him 1-2 months, and he would send his passport back to them for them to issue the visa.

They just SAY 1-2 months, it doesnt really mean that is how long it is going to take...

But sounds like good news! If you email them, they won't tell you much other than its pending now.

well this Sounds good to me Good Luck..

I wonder why he stopped himself.. are they NOT allowed to tell them they has Passed the Interview???

He could have just paused for no particular reason. I wouldn't think too much into it. If it were a denial I would think he'd be told outright, right? Congratulations are in order I think!!!! I pray you go through a speedy process from here on out!

So...I thought that it was good news but my fiance didn't seem to think so...I am afraid to be happy at this point as you never know with Cairo. I really hope that this is all completed soon...

Apparently the interviewer asked my fiance about 2-3 times when we are planning on getting married and tried to confuse him when he asked where we and when we met but each time he answered the questions he said the same thing. We have travel plans in June so I really hope that we get the visa by then. I am still going to email the embassy to see what is going on as I have been getting good results...for example I emailed them right after I found out our stuff was approved in order to have them send the packet 3 to my fiance and it worked, also I emailed them right after we sent in all of our packet 3 stuff in order to try to grant my fiance an interview quickly and that worked too so... maybe if I send them a follow up email I will get a better idea of when I can book the flight.

Thanks for all your comments/advice...

Hey anyone know anything about the flight situation? I thought that we would have a harder time if we booked a one way ticket and just easier to book a round trip...is that true? I would much rather book a one way ticket as it is significantly cheaper.

Congrats to both of you. If the interview did not go well or they needed to check further, they would have given him a 221g AR/AP form, but since they didn't give him one I think it is safe to say the interview was a success and visa will be granted. The best of wishes to both of you.

I wouldn't worry about a flight just yet. If you haven't noticed, Cairo ppl (vast majority) have mandatory AP. Your fiance's interview sounds standard and he'll most likely have about 4 months security checks and AP. You may want to take that May 7 off your timeline. Maybe replace it with Sept 7.
