Review Topic: IR-1/CR-1 Visa

As everyone says, easier than you think! I was 2nd in line at about 630am, it wss cold and snowy, go figure!!
Doors opened at 730am and then we passed security, emptied our pockets etc. I got letter B after K&I, waited for awhile and then around 8am they started to call us up, first the man behind the window went through my papers and asked for originals as I had done EP. Asked me to go sit down, and called me back about 10 minutes later to do my fingerprints. Waited about 1/2hr for the interview as he mentioned the downloading of my file would take about that time.(I thought EP made it faster??)
The interview itself was pretty quick, just some questions on where we met, when did he propose and did I have any pictures since its been more than a year that we are married, I answered that we don't really "do pictures", she smiled and said at least you're honest. Thank goodness for the plane tickets and boarding passes, those helped! She kept a copy and said the magic words, ... read complete review

Review Topic: K1 Visa

Everyone was really nice and helpful. We had not filled out a form properly so they let us use a computer in the office to do it again. The actual interview took about 7-8 minutes tops and the lady was super nice. She asked to see evidence of the engagement I had a ton of stuff but she only looked at some pictures and the receipt for the engagement ring, and said she didn't need anymore. Ben came to the interview with me so she asked him to be a part of it too. It went great.

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?
