Rating:  | Review Topic: K1 Visa
Had our interview on 12/1 for our K1 Visa. The day started with us arriving and being told that they do not offer K1 interviews at the hour we had originally been given...after having us wait about 10 to 15 minutes, the guards reviewed their list of appointments for the afternoon and saw that we were on the list and let us enter. Once inside, everyone we interacted with was incredibly friendly and helpful. We went inside, waited a few, then they let us into another room that looked sort of like the lobby of a bank. We met with a sweet lady for about 20-30 minutes where she reviewed all of our papers and documents...and also asked us a number of questions including how many times we had met, how we met, and a bunch of things like that. Pretty easy questions, mostly just about our relationship. After she went through all of the papers, we were told to sit down and wait for the cashier. Once the cashier arrived, we paid the $265 and were told to go to another booth (like the teller at the bank). There we were interviewed again by a serious, professional, but nice man named Herman Yee. He had us swear an oath that we weren't lying then asked a few of the same questions as the first lady and also asked my fiancee a few other more specific questions like "who does your partner live with" and "does he own his own home" and things like that. That second interview took all of 5-10 minutes at most. He then told us that we were approved and she could pick up her passport with the visa in it 3 days later.
