Rating:  | Review Topic: K1 Visa
My Fiancé, k2 daughter and our infant along with me arrived 20 mins before the interview. Once we checked in at window 7, they put a sticker to expedite coz of the baby. A very nice Khmer lady took our documents and showed a lot of respect to my fiancé, which is touching to see in a country like Cambodia, where anyone with power shows attitude to their own kind. An hour and a half later the CO called us and had a very big smile and spoke to us In English. Basic questions were asked as how we met and if I was there for the babies birth, which I was as I showed them evidence that I had being in Cambodia 9 times since I met my fiancé two years ago. The only snag we had was the CO said that they needed the biological father of the K1 to come and sign an affidavit, even though we had a notarized letter (lawyer cost $250). This was going to be an issue as he isn't a pleasant man, however I was willing to pay $$$ for his time. The CO though said he will write to Washington for guidance, however the visa would be delayed unless I attempt the ex to come to the cosulate, which would be faster. My fiancé was anxious and I told her to call him, which she did with a new SIM card and for our luck he wad really accommodating and met her 2 hours later at the consulate. We were then approved  . Overall a pleasant experience but my heart went out to the 90% of the people being denied.
