Review Topic: K1 Visa

My enterview was on february 20, 2008.
I went to the consulate in Rio with my 9 years old daughter (K2).
We got in there very early in the morning, and there was already a line there (diferent then the line for turist visas).
They gave us numbers according to the position in the line, and while we were waiting they gave us a list to check and have our documents in the right order.
A man speaking in portuguese called me in a window, and checked all documents. Then asked me another picture because my earrings were big. So I had to leave the consulate and take new pictures ( there is a place crossing the street).
Then I came back and gave him the new pictures.
Probably this is the reason that then we were the last to be called by the consul.
She was a very nice woman, trying to speak portuguese.
She asked me if I visited my future husband in USA. Whe I said that I didn't.
She asked me why I didn't aply for a turist visa to visit him first.
I answered that he visited me several times, and we knew we wanted to get married, so we decided to apply for the right visa (to not have problems later with adjustment of status , like going to USA with a turist visa and then get married. We read that this could cause problems with AOS).
She asked if my daughter was going with me, and made a few simple questions to her like where her father lives...
It was about 10 minutes. I believe that everybody that was there that morning was approved. It is just very stressfull...
