Review Topic: K1 Visa

The interview was relatively easy, even though we did prepare for it intensively. My SO went in at 8:30am and had to wait about an hour. The interview took no more than 10 minutes. They spent about 15 minutes looking through her documents before calling her in for the interview (she could see that, since she was close to the interview window). The questions were relatively simple.
1. Where and when did you meet your fiance (we met in a different country)
2. Why did you go to that country?
3. Do you speak English? (A: Very little)
4. Does he speak Russian? (A: Not at all)
5. Which language do you speak with each other (A: A third language)
6. Do you mean English? (A: No, a third language)
7. Wow, you speak another language! (Interviewer looked genuinely surprised)
8. Did he ever come to Russia?
9. When?
10.She offered to show the interviewer our pictures
11.Interviewer looked through couple of the pictures and ... read complete review

April 21 interview. She said she was in and out by 11 a.m. Maybe 10 minutes total interview time. She did part of the interview in English -- switched to Russian because the clerk spoke so quickly. Was asked the ages of my children. Was asked how many time we met in person and when was the last meeting. Was asked where did we decide to marry (ie, proposal location). Smooth and easy.

Review Topic: K1 Visa

Over all the interview went well, Very nice people!! Olga stated that they asked somewhere around four questions: What her fiance's name is? How we met? How many times we met, and what were the circumstances? How we communicate? Liza experienced a much easier experience, Liza is Olga's Daughter! They simply asked her if she was ready to go to America? If she knew any english? That was about it in a nutshell, simple process!! As long as you follow the guidelines and fill out ALL of the paperwork, double and triple check everything, then you will be good to go!! Olga did say that no one that she saw got denied!! Overall she was there about two hours.

Review Topic: K1 Visa

The interview went very smoothly, although she said everyone who worked there was rude, both the Americans and the Russian workers. She said she could hear them making jokes about the Russian women scamming American men. Otherwise the interview went fine. They took her documentation and looked it over, then asked her questions: how did we meet, describe me (the USC), what will be her address in the states, and have I been to Russia. They also asked her to talk about her photographs and for the names of my parents. Then they told her the visa would be sent to her in 3-4 days.

NOTE: Because she translated her own documents, they did not allow her to have the interview in Russian. She had to speak English. It was fine in this case, because she speaks good English, but she said she wishes she could have spoken Russian because she was so nervous. So if your fiance(e) would rather have the interview in Russian, make sure the documents are translated by somebody else. ... read complete review

Review Topic: K1 Visa

No major complaints! Nadezhda found three other girls outside the embassy who were there for interviews as well. The four of them went in together and could not tell where to go, and could see no obvious way to get information, so someone in the foursome asked an embassy employee for assistance and they were sent in the right direction.

The interview lasted a few minutes only. The embassy official asked the first few questions in Russian.

1. How did you meet your fiance? (Answer: website elenasmodels.com)
2. Did this website inform you about your fiance's criminal history, or lack thereof? (Answer: yes)
3. Did you communicate in Russian, or in English? (Answer: English)

After this answer, the embassy official starting speaking in English!

4. How did you communicate? (Answer: letters, phone calls)
5. Does your finace have any hobbies? What are they? (Answer: yes, music, playing drums, hik... read complete review
