CR 1 interview at the embassy abroad

[UT&LAH 0]

Hi guys!!

 

 I was just wondering when you go for the interview at the embassy abroad, should we both participate? Will there be only one interview? And if we both are participating whom are they questioning the most? Us Citizen or the beneficiary? What kinda questions will be asked from the beneficiary?

The interview is for the  beneficiary, not the petitioner........To my knowledge, only in very rare and unusual occasions has a petitioner been required to attend or participate.

I went with my husband for his interview in Brazil, for moral support but also to show the officer how we interact, that we are a real couple in love.  We were both called to a private room for the interview, my husband, the beneficiary, was asked two questions, when and how we met, and who proposed marriage.  Then she asked me, the petitioner, two questions, what I do for work, and how long I have been doing it.  After that she said the visa was approved.  He got his passport with the visa by mail one week later.  It may vary depending on the practices of your embassy or consulate, so do more research on that location.  Good luck!
