Moscow, Russia | Review on September 20, 2010: | hobbitofohio
Rating: | Review Topic: K1 Visa
Our K-1 has our proxy marriage. So it had a few different details from regular k-1. Woman at #5 embassy window who takes papers was very unfriendly. She told Natasha wrong information. We had talked about how to deal with such possible problem. Nastasha follow directions given before day of interview. Consul officer was professional and friendly. Natasha had greeted him in English and they spoke the whole time in English. (He gave her choice of using Russian or English language.) Natasha gave him our papers about non-consummated proxy wedding, with copy of page from U.S. Department of State Foreign Affairs Manual Volume 9 - Visas 9 FAM 40.1 Notes on unconsummated proxy marriage. He smiled and looked at them for a few seconds. He keyed some information from manual page into his notes. He asked a few, very basic questions about our wedding. He also asked the standard questions listed in the review posted here from July of this year. So I will not repeat them here. After 15 minutes, he gave approval. She had waited about 3 hours for interview. We now wait for DHL to send passport with visa.
