We had a consultation today with a lawyer who told us we that I (the petitioner) have to accompany my husband (the applicant) to his interview. 

His interview letter did not mention my requirement, ability or lack of ability to attend the interview with him. I'm currently in the US so I would have to fly there in order to join him, so we want to make sure I would actually be able to come in with him, but we weren't able to get consistent info online on the matter.

 

At this point we're pretty sure that I'm not required to be there, but I would definitely want to be there if I am able to join him.

Does anyone have any info on the matter? specifically for the Jerusalem embassy, since they same to very widely 🤠

Whether a spouse is allowed (or expected) into consulates for immigrant visa interviews is very consulate-specific, so maybe a mod will move this to the Middle East page to get more responses.   
 

I would question  that lawyer’s statement though.   Does he have recent Jerusalem-specific experience?  


Because consulates in the post-pandemic world have really cracked down on allowing extra people inside, and I would guess that would be the case even more in geopolitically sensitive countries.
