My interview was 19nov2012 at 11:00a. I was in and out in 10 minutes. The male I/O was very professional, brief and precise. We were sworn to tell the truth bla bla bla.., verified our identities and documents, specifically checked marriage certificate only! (carry originals and copies. Asked if we are living together, wifes full names and DOBs, husbands full names and DOB, asked if we had a bank statement with or any joint account with both our names (we produced that), where we met and that was it. The IO never asked to see a single pic! I was APPROVED on the spot with the approval letter printed out and systems updated.
My advice is, be calm, dress professionally, and relax. It's a simple, normal, office environment, not intimidating at all. Be brief with your answers. Dont be too verbose or answer what you have not been asked or prolong your answers unecessarily. Put your documents in order before you go in, originals on one side and copies on the other. The officer was so happy on how fast we pulled out the two documents he asked for. If you can, lay your package on the table after swearing in, even if they won't ask for any or many documents from it. I think the volume of the package may make you appear more prepared if it is reasonably large due to amount of RELEVANT INITIAL and supporting evidence asked. Last, pray to your superior being,your almighty, and you will get approved.
Finally it is important to note that my experience and and suggestions are in no way construed to work for everybody in my similar circumstances. Cases are still being adjudicated on a case to case basis, and outcomes may vary significantly. I wish you all the best and GOOD LUCK to all of you! Thank you all VJyers for your support and sharing in this site i really benefited from this site. I DID NOT HIRE A LAWYER FROM THE BEGINNING TO THE END OF THIS JOURNEY, just the community of visa journeyers and of course the lords grace. Be blessed folks!
