Review Topic: K1 Visa

We went super early like 0600 something, consulate didn't open till 0740ish am...our supposed appointment was at 0800

We went in turn in our papers at the window (we had everything in binders & clear plastic folders, which they told us to take out of)

Waited around 45min or so, then the cashier came to the window & we paid her fee

Waited around another 20min or so, then cashier/co came back w/ our papers to ask where my employment paper was at (told her the military told me they dont do employment letters & that they told me my contract & military ID should be enough), she checked it off in her checklist.

Waited around another 30min, while I think 2 spousal visas went (i think both failed, since i overheard something about their kids papers not being fully completed or w/e).

Then came our turn (ironically they called my name instead of hers, so we got a lil confused at 1st, but they then called her name a few se... read complete review

Review Topic: K1 Visa

- Interview:
He had a Hmong interpreter. There were two CO there that day, a female and a male. He said the male CO is friendly and only asked like 4 questions then either approves or request for more stuff or denies. the female CO (the one he had) isn't as friendly and asks a lot of questions. He was asked 14 questions and was able to answer 13 of them. The CO also kept asking him if we were introduced to each other, implying that we weren't legit. We weren't denied or approved but got a 221(g), requesting for more information. After which we would be given a decision or possibly put on adminitrated processing.

He also said there were two other K1 there that day and they didn't get approved right away either. One needed police certificate and the other had to have her petitioner rewrite a more detail explanation to how they met.

- Quesitons from Interview:
Where I work
When we meet
Where meet
With whom when met

Review Topic: K1 Visa

My fiance requested a Lao translator even though she and I speak Hmong to each other. The Consulate felt the need to drill my fiance on this. My fiance replied that she is more fluent in Lao and prefer speaking Lao when interacting in a "official" manner where as she speaks Hmong to me because I do not understand Lao and us speaking in Hmong is not so serious nature. My fiance's rational won out. Unfortunately, the Lao translator was also the Consulate who was horrible in Lao.

These Basic questions were asked: How we met. When was the last time we saw each other. My job position. How many immediate family members do I have.

There were 4 others that morning for Visa interviewing. My fiance and another girl were the only 2 who passed.

I was not present at the Interview.
She was only asked 3 questions: When was the last time we saw each other, who all accompanied her at the interview, how we know each other?.

VIENTIANE, US CONSULATE - routine

It's first come, first served. Be the first in line even if you see other people waiting outside the Travel Agency.

Head straight for the window if opened.
* Hand in your documents.
* Wait to be called for payment $350USD
* Wait to be called to get finger printed
* Wait to be called to get interviewed.

If approved, you will receive a little white piece of paper with pickup date.
Pickup day - Arrival between 3 or 3:30. They actually let you in early for this. Have a seat up in the front row. The officers will bring all the petitions out. Information will be explained verbally to the entire group. All petitions will be handed to their individuals. You can leave the CONSULATE NOW!

Things you MUST have: Family Registry BOOK, Passport, LAO ID, Birth Certificate, Police/Criminal Report. I saw a few people with copies only and were denied!
