Abu Dhabi embassy recent immigrant visa experiences

[Help_us 0]

Has anyone gone to the Abu Dhabi Embassy recently for immigrant visa interviews. My parents will be going there and would be helpful to find out about other people's experiences

 

- What questions were asked, especially for parents sponsored by American citizens?

 

- Did they ask about health insurance (though I know there is a Federal court mandated stay on that rule)

 

- I see the instructions say that you can't bring any bags or phones. However they ask for a lot of documents which would be impossible to carry by hand, especially for elderly parents.

How strict are they about the no-bags policy and is there a locker by the embassy to leave the phones or are no phones allowed period?

 

Thanks

Bump - does anyone have any experiences to share?

 

Especially if there are lockers for phones and do they allow simple canvas bags to carry documents?

 

Thanks
