Recommended Posts

I've read about different interviews and most appear to be moderate and not a big deal. Knowing my luck, I'm going to have the interview from hell. Can people who had the worst interview possible tell about their experiences. Does anyone know of anyone who got denied? If there is a thread with such experiences, can someone direct me to it. Thanks.

my fiance got denied in manila. not hard to understand either. from day 1 she told me she was single with no kids. she left k-1 info blank. she was so affraid i was going to dump her for having kids she locked secret away till interview. then at very last step interviewer said who's this guy ? and she said my ex husband.

she has annulment with no custody of kids but YOU cant lie to US GOV. bottom line. k-1 shot to hell and all the waiting. now i have to go back 2 more times to get married and start all over with a k-3. so if your going to leave anything out on your PAPERWORK make sure u write it all down. or else get denied like she did. her im so sorry now does fall a little short but shes the woman i want so im going back in nov to get marriage license.

either im awful understanding or im an idiot. ????? Tim.......... denial date july 9th 2007 manila

I have a friend that was denied in Tampa. They lawyered up and paid a little more attention for the second interview. They passed the second time around. Personally I would have denied them as well. They were just lax and clueless.

If they got to the actual interview the first time, that means they filed the paper work. So how clueless could they have really been? :huh:

"...My hair's mostly wind,

My eyes filled with grit

My skin's white then brown

My lips chapped and split

I've lain on the prairie and heard grasses sigh

I've stared at the vast open bowl of the sky

I've seen all the castles and faces in clouds

My home is the prairie and for that I am proud…

If You're not from the Prairie, you can't know my soul

You don't know our blizzards; you've not fought our cold

You can't know my mind, nor ever my heart

Unless deep within you there's somehow a part…

A part of these things that I've said that I know,

The wind, sky and earth, the storms and the snow.

Best say that you have - and then we'll be one,

For we will have shared that same blazing sun." - David Bouchard

yes they had the paperwork "professionally" assembled. However they didn't have sufficient "evidence" of a life together and "failed" a few questions during a stokes style interview.

Do you know how many telephones are in your house? I didn't until I read the list of potential questions. Do you know what brand of televisions are in all of your rooms...I still don't.

If they had the paper work filed by a lawyer, if he/she was a good lawyer, they would have told them what they needed to get as evidence for the interview.

And how many POs do you think really spend the time to ask what brand of televisions people have in their houses. You could say anything.

I never said they had a lawyer. They had a notario in Florida prepare the application. The application was flawless.

Yes you can say anything but when they separate you and ask each of you separatly and individually and get different answers...bingo...you got a problem.

And yes it is one of the standard questions.

i did check with attorney. k-3 should be no problem. not that we have annulment paperwork. as far as im concerned it all could have been fixed at interview but manila is a one way consular. and as far as the lie is concerned. she really feels like ######. why rub it in . we talk everyday and we talked about what happened. i can understand. she's 29. she's worth marrying and i do believe shes has learned a lifetime lesson. better now then never.

If anyone is interested in the answers to these questions, just to help people prepare for AOS, the correct answers are: 3 and Sony and Toshiba.

This is just my two cents: If she can lie once, she can lie again. Can you really trust someone who will lie about kids!?!?! That is serious s**t. I dunno, but best of luck and God bless!

my point exactly. Most interviewers, so I have heard and read, try to ask questions that are at least RELEVANT to the relationship. While I am sure this question has been asked before, I think it's pretty silly in terms of how true your marriage really is. haha

And for any one who has had their interview, how many of you WERE separated? I thought they only separate you if they are suspicious that your marriage is not bonafide? Please do tell. It is not an interrogation, it is an interview. The amount of people on the internet that try to scare people always makes me laugh.
