hello VJ members,

i just had my interview yesterday...they gave me pink slip to pay Delbros...congratulated me by the consul.. but I haveto submit first notarized acknowledgemet letter from my fiance regarding my childrens before they will realese my visa...my interview took long time about 45 min its because the consul asked mostly about our emails He reads our emails one by one and asked me questions based on what he reads. believe me there were many emails.He even asked where my fiance get his neckname and mine too...He asked about my kids,pictures of my kids togethr wth my fiance..i was not able to give to him because they dont have pictures togethr..then he look at his appliaction and found out that he did not put my daughters there so He asked acknowledgemnt letter coming from Him...My pre-screener is nice to me and the consulate officer but He is strick in some ways...I thank you to all VJ members who help me how to get passport specially to Jen and Larry...and some who is just there always prepare replies to all our questions..thank you very much and to all who will have thier Interview soon...be sure to know all the details of the supporting documents that you will submit ..like emails and chat logs.. good luck to all

I will have to add, if I had been present for her interview, we would not have this delay. The Consulate Officer would have had me there to answer any questions he had. I did send the notarized statement today, I don't care much for delays. It is advisable for Fiance's and spouses to attend interview if there is any way possible, it will help to eliminate any possible delays and help keep the poor ladies calm. :thumbs: But I am happy, at least she did get her approval and not an assignment to the AR dungeon. :yes:

It was a mistake on my part and I did not catch it until after I had submitted the Visa petition.

I also did that on my petition but I called USCIS and they added my wife's son on the petition for me. I hope that will do it.

In my case I was thinking that I wasn't supposed to add him if he wasn't coming with us.

Oh Dopey me.
