Our K1 Visa interview at Ho Chi Minh city consulate.
Interview: Jan 6, Ho Chi Minh City Vietnam
We were anxious. Prepared well and practiced for interview. We had every document that could be needed with us. I traveled for interview.
We arrived at Embassy ad there were large lines. When they called the number for document check, we both walked up. I was asked if I was the petitioner and I said yes. He told me to go sit down.
While waiting we noticed and overheard some of the other people's interview questions. A few k1 applicants that were there by themselves were asked challenging and probing questions and seemed that CO may have some doubt about thier case. We were anxious.
When our number was called, we went to window together. We were both asked to raise our hands and say that we will tell the truth. CO then proceeded to ask us both questions. I was surprised that they allowed me to stay for interview. The questions were relatively easy.
Questions for Her:
Can you show me your photos?
How many trips has your fiance made to Vietnam?
Do you have any relatives in US?
How did the 2 of you meet?
When did you meet in person - the first time?
Were either of you married before? Did you know that fiance was still married when you first met?
When was fiance's divorce started and finalized?
Do either of you have any children?
What does your fiance do in US?
Questions for Me:
Can I see your passport?
Please show me the previous 2 Vietnam visa's and airport stamps?
CO then said, you need to bring the Medical exam test results and then you will get visa. He said all your paper work is in order. After interview, CEAC status changed to Administrative processing.
My fiance's medical exam had found something on lung x-ray. She was asked to do Sputum test, which she started. Sputum test takes 2 months to compete. We wen ahead and did the interview before the final Sputum test results are available.
Think that me being there at Embassy fro interview helped. All our paperwork was very detailed and we had submitted a very complete set of documents. I thought that CO and interview questions were fair.
We received conditional approval. Condition and required document is Sputum Test Results are needed to be completed.
After 10 weeks, medical exam sputum exam results came back. She received medical exam report. Took the medical exam and vaccination report to consulate.
She finally received visa after a long wait. We are happy and have now began our life together in US.
Thanks for all help from VJ and members.
