Review Topic: K1 Visa

I'm not going to bother typing a huge review. I'll just get to the point. Get there early if you want to get out of there early. We got there late, just before 7 and we didn't get out of there till about noon. The interview itself was a breeze, asked very few questions and mostly looked at our documents..divorce, letter from kids father giving permission to move etc.

Review Topic: K3 Visa

We went there shortly after having lunch on Robson Street. By the time we got there, there was only a few non immigrant visa appointments in front of us. 2 other couples was also interviewing for the K3. The wait time in the room on the floor where the interview took place was about 2 hours. The officer was very polite. Did not ask too much questions. Only what my husband did for a living and how we met. She noticed my numerous rejections for prior student visas, and I explained to her that we were young and only wanted to go to college together at the time. She asked for some proof of ongoing relationship, we took out 45 round trip plane tickets and a photo album. No proof of income or affidavit of support was asked. I was approved. I picked up my visa two days later.

Review Topic: K1 Visa

Had interview scheduled for 1pm. Arrived at 12:30, and was told to return at 12:45. We left all electronics at home, including cell phones, so getting through security was simple.

We were the only ones in the office at first, and we were called up to the window to provide the passport, applications, birth cert, police cert, and affidavit of support. I provided my letter from my employer and last year's tax return just to make sure they had everything they needed. We were told to sit back down and wait for our name to be called again.

After about an hour of waiting, we were called up to another window and fingerprints were taken. After this, the following questions were asked:

How did you meet?
When did you start dating?
When did you get engaged?
When is your wedding?
What do you do for a living, and where do you work(Directed at me, the petitioner)r you have to support a bonafide relationship?

Security were a bit rude, but this isn't unexpected.

Interview was a breeze, the attendants were pleasant. I don't even remember them asking any probing questions. They just checked over all the paperwork to make sure it was correct.

The challenging part was sitting around and waiting for hours.

Review Topic: IR-1/CR-1 Visa

Hi Everyone,

We stayed in Hotel Plateau Royale which was 3 Km from the Consulate. I took a walk in the evening to see the consulate location and find a convenient public parking. There is a big paid parking lot very close to the consulate, so i was happy and came back to the hotel.

Woke up at 5 30 AM in the morning and me and my wife reached the consulate by 6 30. It was drizzling, so i told my wife to wait in the car in the parking while i reserved the coveted first position in front of the consulate. Others started lining up behind me after 6 40. Met another VJ couple in the line and we chatted while trying to save ourselves from getting wet.

Wy wife joined me before the doors opened at about 7 32 and we were all relieved to enter the consulate after freezing outside for an hour. We were asked for the interview letter and were told to empty out pockets and remove the jackets. A quick security check / XRay scan of the items by the security... read complete review
