K1 Visa Interview Date: July 10, 2017
Background about our case:
Female petitioner, male beneficiary
No age difference, no previous marriages/divorce, no children
Different cultural and religious backgrounds (He is Moroccan and I am not)
I made 5 total visits to Morocco including our initial meeting and 1 meeting after filing the I-129F documents.
Upon arriving at the consulate, there are several layers of security that you will need to go through. After that, there was a wait to submit the required documents (I-134, court records, DS-160 page ect). My fiance was asked if he had traveled outside of Morocco before. (He had not) Then there was another long wait to be called up to sit for the interview. He was asked what language he wanted to do the interview in (English).
The CO was an American man in his 30s. He was pleasant and seemed genuinely interested in our case.
Questions asked during interview:
- How did you your fiancée meet (included a lot of details about the day we met)
- What did your fiancée do before her first trip to Morocco as a volunteer
- Was her first trip to Morocco her first trip abroad
- Tell me about her additional trips to Morocco (4 additional trips)
- When did you get engaged (exact date)
- How did you propose (what phrase did you use)
- What did she say to your proposal
- Did you have an engagement party? (We did not)
- What do you (beneficiary) do for a living
- When are you planning on getting married
- What does your fiancée like (hobbies)
The CO did not want to see any of our call/chat logs or wedding planning proof. He looked at some of the photos and told my fiance that he was approved. Overall the interview was easy and the officer was very friendly and smiled and laughed a lot.
