I arrived early at the embassy and went up to the 10th floor and went thru security ... they gave me a number and kept my handbage and let me keep my paperwork... I was then called and told I could go up to the the 59th floor for my interview ...
When I got there (15min early) I had to take a number and was soon called up and spoke to a young lady who took my finger prints and went thru my paperwork and asked for my passport, visa receipt and envelope ... when she was done she told me to go sit down and that I would soon get called up for my interview .... by 9.15 I was called up and spoke to a really nice young man...
He asked me when I was getting married and I said the 2nd of May and were and I said in {Town} Oregon he asked me if Id ever been to the states and I said no and that Shay had been to Oz for 5 weeks... he asked me if I thought I would enjoy country life and I replied that I didnt know because Id never lived in a country town before but I was sure looking forward to seeing the wildlife, except the bears, Id be more then happy to pass on the bears ... he then asked me what Shay did for a living I said he was a Chef and he asked me what I intended to do in the states and I said have babies :lol: and explained that Im 38 and his 39 and we both really want to start a family asap ... thru the whole encounter he seemed to be smiling in all the right places and seemed to be satisfied with my answers and said that he was going to approve my visa and that I would receive it in the mail in a few days ... I asked him when he thought it may arrive and he said more then likely end of the week or the beginning of next ... I said thank you very much and was there anything else and he said no that, that was it and that I had 6months from date of issue but it sounded that we had more current plans and he wished us all the best ...
Overall a very good experience, I wasnt made to feel at all anxious and thats saying something because I a few minutes earlier I had watched a guy have his denied because he had a pending court date...
Soooo Yay! we got our visa approved!!!
