Hello all, here is how the interview went: this is from what my fiancé told me, the appt. Was for 6:30 am and he arrived at 6:00 am. He waited for 3-4 hours before he was seen. He was interviewed by a guy (he thought was the guy was fair). After asking looking at all the documents that were required, they found some information that needed clarifying. He was told they need to investigate further and that the case will be in AP. They requested some more information plus to bring back all the documents he had with him (proof of relationship) and told him they will contact him in two weeks. The information was provided within two weeks but they said an appointment must be made to bring in the information.
The 2nd appt/interview was in march 13, 2012. I made a point to take off and join him in Nairobi for the interview. It was the worst, I wasn't permitted to go in and he it was 4-5 hours before he came out. When he finally did make it all the way in, a lady came up to... read complete review

Ok, so let me share our experience through this journey. I received notification on 5/4/12 that NVC was done with our case and transmitting documents to Nairobi and Visa interview scheduled for 6/4/12 at 6:30am. Called my wife and shared the news, right away we started preparing. Thanks to VJ we learned alot from here. I requested 1 week off from 6/1 so i could travel and attend interview with my wife. Bought ticket on Egypt air a few days later leaving JFK on 6/1 and arriving in Nairobi 6/3 4am. We gathered all possible questions from VJ from all consulates around the world and I drilled my wife on them for the next three weeks. My wife gathered all evidence on her end like boarding passes for Kisumu, Mombasa, Malindi during our holidays, hotel receipts, amboseli receipts, chat logs for 4 years, emails, cards, and pictures. We had so many pictures over 5000 spaning 4 years. We did a small civil wedding at the AG's office in Kisumu that only my wifes sisters attended, this was in Ausus... read complete review

The visa interview was tough but manageable if you have all your documents and information in order. I could not hear the CO very clearly through the glass window and she got a little impatient with me so insisted that I needed a translator and asked me to sit and wait some more. I did as she instructed and prayed for grace and calmness.
I was asked about my previous travels to the US, Canada and UK, my husband's divorce and kids, why i was denied entry to the US in Nov 2010 ( I showed her the statement I made to Homeland Security when i opted for voluntary withdrawal of visa) and also wanted to know why we opted to get married in the US and not Kenya. Asked to see photos of me and hubby. Also asked to see my ring...
The advise I would give is stay calm, say the truth as you know your relationship is legit and don't cook up stories....some questions were asked more than once. Also, pray for grace and favor and for calmness.
I was also called back to verify finger ... read complete review

Very pleasant people. Interview was quick and simple only a few questions, no request for evidence. As others have stated, I belive they have made a decision prior to your interview. Your interview is your chance to either verify their decision or nullify it.

This has been an interesting journey.
My fiance was scheduled for an interview on 2/21/12 at 7.45. When he got there he waited for his number to be called. It was finally called and they told him they had not received his medical. He told them he did the medical on the 14th. the checked but could not find it.
He went outside and called the doctor office - luckily they had the confirmation and told him they would call teh consulate and provide them with it. When he went back in, they said that they had found it once they were given the confirmation number. They rescheduled him fo the 22nd at 8am.
He got there at 7am but apparently they had not given his name to the security guys. he waited till 8.30 and was finally let in. His nymber was finally called and he had the "mean" lady. She did not even ask for the affidavit of support.
She asked him;
how we met
how we communicated (she did not accept the info i had prin... read complete review
