My husband had his interview this morning. I stayed up all night long waiting to hear from him. He said that everyone that he spoke to at the Embassy was very courteous and nice...made him feel very comfortable. When he checked in, a very nice woman told him that he didn't need to give them anything since they already had all of the required documents. I front loaded the petition which seemed to be beneficial. She asked my husband if he wanted to speak English or Arabic for the interview. He chose to speak English. The CO asked him general questions about how we met, wanted to know all of the details, questions about me and my family and other general interview questions. He said the CO smiled the entire time he was being interviewed. The interview lasted 10 minutes and he was approved. After the CO stamped his paperwork with "Approved", he asked the CO if he was really approved...he just wanted to hear it again. The CO smiled and said yes, your visa is approved and gave my husband an orange slip with the date to pick up his passport and visa.
I really wanted to be there with my husband when he had his interview but they do not allow the petitioner to enter the embassy for immigration purposes.
Our prayers have been answered and I wish there was some way for me to tell the Consulate how happy we are. There is no word that can express how excited we are knowing that we will be together soon.
I've heard a lot of great stories about the US Embassy in Beirut - One of the best in the middle east. Good luck to those who are going through the immigration process in Lebanon. Everything will be fine...inshallah.
