P&K
Rating:  | Review Topic: K1 Visa
K1/K2 visas.
Both k1/k2 attended. Appointment at 2 pm. We arrived 15 minutes earlier. The embassy was empty of other applicants at that time, so they made us enter the building right away. The interview had 2 parts: in the first interview the CO had a check list with all documents to be requested: asked in this order: (in spanish)
1- Passports
2- DS-160 Confirmation pages
3- Evidence of visa fee payments (bank receits)
4- 2 Photos each (please have them cropped in 2x2 inches, ours came in a pair)
5- Birth Certificates
6- Police Certificate
7- Marriage Certificate from previous marriage and divorce decree
8- Photos of fiance and I together
9- i-134 Affidavit of Support (copy) and supporting evidence (bank statement, tax returns, employment letter)
10- Medical exams in sealed envelopes
The CO was asking questions in between asking for the documents: My daughter was only asked how old is she and asked to sit down and wait, the she asked: tell me about your relationship, how did it start, how long ago, how many times did you see eachother and when, did he visit you?, did your daughter meet him? Is this going to be your second or third marraige? is this going to be is second marriage? . Afterwards, the CO told me that our case is going to be prepared and then the Consul was going to interview us.
We waited for about 20 minutes and then were called us both by the Consul for the interview. Took our fingerprints and asked my daughter to sit down in the waiting area. He asked: how did you meet? do you communicate in spanish or english? Since I replied that we speak in english, he continued the interview in english. Then asked, have you been to the US? where did you stay? what do you plan to do for a work once in the US? (I replied that family is my main focus and we as a family would consider it later on) Does your daughter like your fiance? As he was asking these questions he was stamping the copies and returning the originals to me, which I highly appreciate. After this he said: your visa is approved and handed me the IMBRA paper and instructions for passport and visa pick up.
Both CO and all staff at the embassy were very polite and treated us with great respect. We left at 2:45.
