We got to the embassy around 6:45am and were first in line...they started letting people in at 7. We checked our cell phones at the door and were directed through to the waiting room with all the windows where the interviews are conducted. We were called up to the the window for the first time around 7:30 and Rumi was asked for his DS-156, 156K and 157 along with his visa photos, he was then told to go to the last to pay. After we paid he was called back to the first window they asked for his antecedentes, birth cert, our affidavit of support and proof of relationship. We had a lot but all they wanted me to give them were pictures, skype logs, phone bills and notarized letters from friends and family. They asked him how we met, how we keep in touch when were not together, if we have children and if he had ever traveled to the US before and if he'd ever applied for a visa to the US. We were then asked to sit down and waited about an hour and a half before we were called into the second interview in a separate room. This one was more relaxed than the first, she basically asked the same questions again and then told us our visa was approved!!! After so much stress and worry it was really a pleasant experience everyone we spoke to at the embassy was very friendly! I flew down to attend the interview with him and was allowed to be there for both, however all questions were directed to my fiance. I don't think my presence affected the decision at all, the CO in the second interview actually seemed surprised when we walked in together, I'm glad I went though in order to be able to share the moment with him!
