Guangzhou, China | Review on August 6, 2013: | Daveykins
Rating: | Review Topic: K1 Visa
Met up with another VJ member yesterday and the day before to exchange notes and review paperwork together. Also met up with several of the same QQ "Gang of 6" group members and my Fiancee found talking to them helpful in calming her nerves. 3 of them all passed earlier that day and explained to her that they didn't ask for much of all the paperwork that they and ourselves prepared. Caught several things I overlooked like the Telegraph code, adding Chinese to the DS-156. Really helpful to work with another VJ member if possible!
Interview went very well. Arrived just after 6:30am, already a line for the 7:30am appointments. Security organized the line around 7am, and they started letting them in around 7:40am.
Security formed our line for 8:30 appointments around 8am. Of course some ass Chinese guy cut in front of us in line when security organized it. If I knew Chinese I would of yelled at him, lol. We were still #3 and the fellow VJer and his Fiancee #2 in line.
Two CGI Stanley girls checked our Fiancee's passports and appointment letters, attached a sticker to her passport and they were let in around 8:40am. I wish I could of given them a piece of my mind about their awful "service!"
The Questions she was asked:
Have you met my parent's before?
How do you know my father?
What is my father's job?
Can you speak English or Chinese? (in English) Both, but I'm very nervous and my English isn't very good. The VO commented that her English is very good!
(Interview continues in Chinese)
Do you love him?
Why do you love him?
How often do we talk?
How long have we been talking?
Have you been to the US?
(At this point from talking to my Fiancee the questions changed to imply that she already passed the interview without knowing yet.)
(VO sees resume) What do you want to study in US?
When do you plan on going to US?
When did we meet the last time? Hong Kong, November 2012. (Fiancee flashes my passport with the EoR that I had notarized at ACS the day before. Thanks Darnell for this awesome tip, great idea! Well spent $50.) He's waiting for me outside. (VO very surprised to hear this!)
Are you a communist?
Congratulations, you are Approved! :kicking
She was out at around 10:10am and met us at the Starbucks a block from the Consulate, very convenient if anyone needs a place to meet. There's also a Western restaurant that has breakfast all day to meet at nearby too.
Overall, great experience. Mine and fellow VJer's Fiancees were super happy when they came out!
I printed a bunch of photos of me with her parents and family from the week before. They didn't even ask for any photos or any of the other 500+ pages of paperwork we brought. Just asked for the forms, resume, medical and that's about it. Didn't even ask for the "White books" for the no criminal record, marital status and birth certificate. Or, for the Singapore no criminal record that we spent a lot of money getting in time for the interview! Oh well!
