Rating:  | Review Topic: K1 Visa
Interview was scheduled for 7:20 am, arrived there at 6:45 am. I knew I didn't have to stay in line with the tourist visa applicants to I went straight to the main door with other K1 applicants. At 7 am, an employee started organizing the line and there was a line only for immigrant visas (K1 is processed in the IV section). They scanned our passports (the sticker that the ASC/CASV places on it) and asked if we had had our medical.
Then we were taken to the second floor, to a small room with chairs and interview booths. They gave us a sheet with the order we needed to organize the documents and called by name for a document triage first. They put our documents in a red transparent folder in order and tell us to sit in line. Then we are, one by one, called to a booth where another person checks all our documents, asks a few questions, and return originals/what isn't needed. Then they tell us to wait that the consul will call us by name for the interview.
The interview was quick. 2 minutes tops.
Questions asked:
- Do you confirm that all documents and information submitted are true?
- Have you ever been to US? For how long?
- When did you come back from Canada (they knew I lived in Canada for 3 years)?
- Who is sponsoring your visa? [This question took me by surprise because was asked in English, not Portuguese, and I continued the interview in English]
- What's your fiancé's profession?
- When and how did you meet?
- Did he ever visit you in Brazil and for how long?
- Have you had any previous marriages?
He then returned my original birth certificate and said visa approved!
All went well, this whole thing took 1h30 but the interview was just a few minutes.
