Review Topic: K1 Visa

I arrived to the embassy area at 08:40 AM (I arrived that early because of my anxiety ).

I walked to the main entrance at 09:00 AM and I walked to Window #1, I showed them the copy of my appointment e-mail, after checking that on their system the guy at the window gave me a paper that granted my access to the embassy.

I went through security and I left my phone there ( If you have your cellphone with you they ask you to leave it there but first you need to turn it off, after that, they give you a paper with a number to get your phone back when you leave ).

Then I walked to step #4 ( because they take the steps like this #1 = Line outside the embassy [you don´t need to go to the line if you have an appointment for an immigrant visa ] / #2 = Information at the main entrance / #3 = Security / #4 = Identity check (fingerprints and info)/ #5 = Interview waiting Lobby ) without going the non-immigrant visa line and they checked my info smooth and quickly, then I walked to step #5 ( main building inside of the embassy ) and the lady at the reception asked me my name so that she could check in their system and then she called someone on the phone to notify them about that I arrived, she told me to find a seat on the right section and to wait until someone call my name.

I waited for at least 20 minutes then a lady from window #14 called me and the first thing she said was that this wasn't the actual interview, but that she only needed to check some of my papers, She asked me for my birth certificate (the original and a copy ) , the 4 2x2 in pics and some pictures for evidence of the relationship ( I brought a lot of pictures with me but she asked me to choose the most representative ones ).

After that she told me to go back to my seat and wait to be called by the cashier to pay my fee. 20 minutes later the cashier called me and I paid $240 USD. The guy told me to go back to my seat and wait to be called for the interview located at room #5.

A half hour later I was called on the speakers to go trough the door of room #5.
A lady who was the interview asked me to have a seat and then she return some documents to me from package #3 and my birth certificate.
She asked me these questions:
1- how and when my fiancée and I met?
2- When was her first visit to argentina?
3- how long did she stayed here?
4- When did you traveled to the states?
5- when and how did you proposed?
6- When are you planning to get married?

After those question she said: Your visa is approved!!
