Review Topic: IR-1/CR-1 Visa

At the interview, they told my husband that his case would be under administrative processing and handed him a blue slip of paper. He did not need to turn in any missing documents it just check administrative processing. After checking our visa status all night long and it saying administrative processing the next day around noon it said issued! My husband received his passport with his visa and original documents that they collected at the interview in the mail the next day.

Review Topic: General Review

The Visa interview was difficult. Because the appointment was 7:30AM and my fiance lives far from Seoul, we got an AirBnB close to the embassy. She came the previous day to Seoul. At the interview, we had some trouble. Because of our unique immigration background, the officer asked many questions. SH (my fiance) accidentally stayed too long in the USA one time. He definitely mentioned this, and she was honest when he asked. Her overstay was less than 3 months, so it didn't prevent our approval.

Second, I (we) don't have enough money for sponsorship for now (I just finished grad school last year). My Mom agreed to co-sponsor. The officer didn't care much about my finances, but carefully reviewed my mother's. Also, he didn't care about three years of tax information--just last year. So, most of my documents were useless.

His only other questions were about the relationship history, like "how did you meet?" and start dating, etc. Basically, his job to make ... read complete review

Review Topic: K1 Visa

Took my K1 visa interview two months ago in Seoul, South Korea. I got there like 30-40 minutes early. They only allow you to bring one electric device but since I was staying in a hotel close to the embassy I didn't even bring my cellphone. I probably waited 2 hours total to be interviewed so be prepared. Seemed like some officers would talk in Korean if the applicants don't speak good English but they were also asked questions like "how do you communicate with your fiance then? google translator?", "would you marry him if you get approved? and would you not marry him if you don't get approved?". I kinda felt like they could question the relationship with language problem so I'd personally recommend to prepare your interview in English. This officer who interviewed me was nice and friendly. Only asked like 5 questions but most of them were related to my American fiance like what he does for living, does he make enough money to support me and things like that. At the end of the intervie... read complete review
