Woodie Claudia
Rating:  | Review Topic: K1 Visa
We got the visa approved yesterday 06172009. That is an adventure. Bogota is hugh. The doctor you have to use is on one side of the city. The clinic for the blood test etc another side. The bank you have to use to pay the embassy fees (301,300 COP) another. Monday was a holiday. I asked three people what is the holiday, they did not know. The doctor that signed Claudia's report said he thought it was related to Lent or St Peter or maybe St Paul. Anyway we had to do all of this paperwork on Tuesday before the interview Wednesday morning.
The interview is waiting (in 7AM out 11 AM)in a hugh open but covered patio in the embassy and waiting to be called to a window. It is like in a prison, she talked on a phone with the interviewer behind the glass. We went to two windows and the last one asked me several questions about how I met her, how many visits, and had we been to another country together. She then said I am going to approve her visa and it will be about a week before she gets it by courier. Claudia has a friend that took ten days.
I am going home. When Claudia gets the passport I will go back to get her.
