Review Topic: K1 Visa

We had an outstanding experience at the US Embassy in Tokyo yesterday.
I flew in from the US for the event. Not necessary but it allowed us to have fun people watching and hanging out while we waited, cut off from civilization, without our electronics.

We arrived by taxi at the Embassy at 8:30. We were not sure if we needed a letterpack 500 for K-1 visa so while I paid for the cab, my fiancé ran into Lawson pick one up across the street at Lawson. We walked to the Visa entrance area and there was no line at 8:30. This is because everyone was already inside.

We were asked by the police to produce the interview confirmation document/email which we did. We were then instructed to remove all electronic devices including cellphones, tablets, PCs, USB drives and charger/charging cables. We proceeded through the police security checkpoint and left our devices at the security counter to pick up as we left.

We proceeded to the Visa section. W... read complete review

Review Topic: IR-1/CR-1 Visa

Appointment was 08:30, but we got there too early for interview. So went starbucks and had breakfast. and we back to consulate about 10 mins before interview.
We were number 1, had call just 08:30, give police record, I-864, pictures, passport and pay $230. I forgot i had to bring 2 picture of me but she said its ok and accept them.
And back to chair and wait they call again for interview 45 mins.

The guy asked
-When we get marriage?
-Do we have wedding and reception?
-When we had wedding and reception?
-He's(US citizen) family came to wedding? and who came?
-Do we have kids?

It take about 10 mins, and he said "Interview is done and your visa is approvable. You will get your passport about a week later. Have a good day."

They are nice but not a lot smile on face. So that makes me nervous.

Review Topic: K1 Visa

The whole process was smooth and easy. Took me about an hour.

Questions that I was asked:
How did we meet?
Have I ever married before?
have I met his child yet?
Why do we decide to get marry in the states instead of here?
Am I working and what kinda job?

Very easy and the office was so nice didn't ask me for any photos or proof of relationship.

Review Topic: IR-1/CR-1 Visa

Our appointment was at 0930, so we arrived at 0850. We were actually seen prior to our appointment time (0905), so its good to show up early. The admin worker went through all our required paperwork and had us fix some errors real quick. We sat back down and waited another 15-20 min and my wife was called up for her interview. He diligently looked through her paperwork and then looked through file on the computer. He asked her "When did you get married?" and "When do you intend to travel?" She answered both. He said "OK. You are approved we will send you your VISA in 2-3 days" Smiled and said have a good day. We went to the car and it was 1020.. We were like WOW!! We knew we had over prepared and it felt great.

Everyone at the consulate was very kind and respectful.

It was a great momment for us both!!
