The new embassy building is located near Vauxhall Station, and is around a 10 minute walk from the station itself. My interview was booked for 11am and I arrived at around 10:55am and was asked for my Passport and a print out of my interview confirmation by two security guards at the door to the security buildy, and swiftly handed both documents over and allowed in. I was then asked to go through a standard airport style security search and my bag was put on a tray and through a scanner to be searched, and I went through a body scanner. I was given the all clear and procceded out of the secuirty building and I was instructed to walk straight ahead to the main building. As I entered the main building there was a lady at the reception desk who again asked to see the print out of my interview confirmation. She took the print out and stuck a sticker on the top of it and explained that the number on the stick was my ticket number and instructed me to take the lift to the first floor, turn left and left again and wait in the waiting area for my number to be called. As I took the lift to the first floor, I was immediately greated by two ladies at another reception desk. They checked my confirmation print out again, and instructed me to walk down and take the first left. As I walked down the corridoor to the waiting area, a officer at the interview window / desk asked for my ticket number. I showed it to her, and she said that she had been calling my number. I was surprised, as I was barely in the building for 5 minutes. She asked for my Passport, Birth Certificate, Affidavit of Support, Police Certificate and my Fiance's W2. I handed this over to her and she began making conversation by asking me how my day was and if I was enjoying the weather. She was extreemly polite and tried to ease my nerves. She asked if I had my medical exam the date of the examination. I said yes, and my medical was on 24th July. She said then said that she was going to check in the back to see if they had recived my results. After a few short minutes, she returned with a large brown envelope, and she proceeded to take our the documents that were inside the envelope and placed them with the rest documents I had given to her. She then gave the envelope and noted that my chest x-ray was inside and to keep it when I get to the U.S, and then explained that I would have a interview with another officer and if I am approeved, that they would let me know on the spot. She asked me to take a seat and wait for my number to be called again. After a 15 minute wait, I was called to another window by a officer to asked me to raise my right hand and take a oath, which I did. She then proceeded to ask me the following questions : Where did you and your fiance meet? Where does your fiance live? When was the first time you met your fiance in person? Does you fiance live in an apartment or a house? With those 4 questions, the officer informed me that my visa was approved and that I would receive my passport back within the next 1-2 weeks. She handed back my Birth Cirtificate and the Afidavit of Support. She was very nice and polite and congratulated me. I could'nt belive that it was all over and I was in and out within 40 MINUTES!!! I was working myself up prior to the interview, I was soooo nervous. But to be honest, there is nothing to be worried about. Everyone is very friendly and helpful. | 2019-09-04 | ||||

The consular asked us to send it to them before they could approve or deny. We sent them the document, then a few days later our case status online read as 'Issued.' Because we are in Casablanca near the embassy, everything went very quickly! It was 6 days until we found out the visa was issued then the very next day we were able to pick it up at Aramex. Interview was approx. 10 minutes. Some questions that stood out in the interview... What will you do in the U.S. [take English classes to improve language] Did you have a Moroccan engagement ceremony [he responded yes but did not push to show any proof. at the end of the interview the consular asked to see photos from the ceremony] The consular pointed to people in our photos and asked Amine to name them. The consular asked where the court record was. We had the police record but not the court record. Amine responded saying that he thought the court record was only required for people who have been charged with a crime [because this is what the US website said]. The consular said to send the paper to the embassy so she could make a decision. She was very kind. She said after she gets that paper it should be fine. And it wass thank you God Our strong feeling about the interview process is that they already make a decision before the interview based on the proof submitted. We think that the interview is for the consular to analyze the behavior of the applicant and see their reaction to some questions. Amine remained calm and answered every question with a short honest answer. If your relationship is honest and real, and you have strong financial support, then you should be fine. Neither of us had been previously married nor had children. | 2024-01-09 |
