Embassy Review : |
our interview was at 6:45am..
my husband and I arrive at the consult at about 5:20am we were drop off by my (brother in law) it was about a 10 minute drive from the apartment amazingly there was no traffic. As soon as we got off of the car there were about 4 women screaming from across the street "anyone who has an appoinment at 7:30, 8:30 needs to be standing across from the consult as soon as I heard this I was laughing because I knew they were buscones since they did not have the yellow INFO shirt. So once we were in line there was about 50 people ahead of us. At about 7:10am there was a guy coming around asking for the interview letter and then headed us our lucky number "776". Right when your getting to enter the building they separate the female and male into two different lines, the security area with metal detective is extremely small. At about 7:30am we were inside it was packed. There were women dress as if they were going out to the club high heels and with a lot of make up for what reason don't know. My husband and I went casual but yet simple and comfortable. There were about five fans and only two of them were on. The temperture inside was pleasant we thought it was going to be hot but it was fairly nice. The famous benches lol well they weren't that uncomfortable I should say but since my husband and I were waiting for more than three hours are bums were numb by the time we left I would say but the benches aren't as awful as I had heard. So about 8:45am we were called to Window 14 to deposit his paperwork.. which consist of police certificate, his cedula, and his medical examination (WE DID NOT GIVE THEM the 2x2 PASSPORT PICTURE WE HONESTLY FORGOT BECAUSE OF ALL THE NERVES LOL AND THEY NEVER ASKED AS FOR IT) then the lady very nice told us to take a seat and to listen for our number. At about 9:30am we were called to window 13 for his finger prints by another young lady who was as well very nice and told us the same thing take a seat and listen for your number. So afterwards we sat down and stared at the screen for our number nervously.. So at 10:00am we saw are number look at eachother laughing and went to Window 17 it was a young man with glasses he had a wedding ring, and he seem spanish but had a terrible accent when he spoke spanish...
he made my husband sign then sworn us and then separate us he send my husband to the back of the wall but since his accent was so horrible in spanish he told my husband and my husband walk away near by so he than told me what is he doing his standing right there can you tell him to go to the back of the wall near the entrance door so i told my husband but even before he watch him through a camera which was above his head. So than he asked meee
-Where/When did you guys meet?
-Where/When was your first kissed? Was it in the day or night?
-What flavor was my wedding cake?
-When was the last time I had sexual intercourse?
-Where did we first have sexual intercourse?
-Who did I live with in the US?
-Where did I work and what was my position?
-Ask my if I had any children? he ask me this question twice in different ways
-Ask if my husband was marry before?
-Ask if my parents attend to my wedding?
-What did my husband give me for my birthday?
-What did I bring my husband on the current trip?
he wrote down my answer in a orange pad word by word.. he than asked me my age I'm 21 years old and he kept asking me why did I want to get marry at this age? after he kept telling me but why?.. my answer remain the same at all time, throughout the whole time he was giving attitude and ignoring than repeatly telling me that he knows are marriage is false. He than asked me to go get my husband since my husband wasn't listing to his name and told me in a very demand way not to speak or make any hands movement when getting my husband. I went to go get my husband and than he asked me to stand where my husband was at. My husband was asked the same things and he told my husband from the beginning that he knew are marriage was fake. So than my husband made a signal that it was okay for me to go back.. so we were both at the window and the consult was telling my husband that are marriage was fake repeatly, how much was he paying me, how much was he paying my cousin (since my cousin introduce us)? I was pissed off by this point but my husband was doing most of the talk because I couldn't speak I honestly thought we were going to get deny because he was making all these hand movements and speaking way too loud I was nervous my face was red, and my knees were shaking. At no point he wanted nor requested to see evidence yet I did tell him I had phone log, pictures, msn conversation, money order, letters a whole bunch of stuff, and the only thing he saw was four pictures of my wedding out of like 400 picture that I took, and he asked if my parents assisted our wedding then he handed me the pictures. He at one point try to make my husband and I fight by saying we gave different answers from each other saying which was false because we both answer the same things. He said he wasn't convice of our relationship and was going to send our paperwork back to USCIS and we would have to start again our process if we wanted too at that point my eyes were watery and I quickly asked to speak to our supervisor and he responded he was the supervisor THAT WAS BULLSHIT BECAUSE HE WAS VERY YOUNG and I was talking and begging at the same time telling him I have all these things what do you want to see.. he than basically ignore me typing his life away in the computer lol and I was pouring my heart out telling him I love my husband he loves me and I didn't have nor needed to lie about the situation. He close the file he had in front of him. When he closed the file intop there was a green slip which had a clip he ript half of it stay with 1/2 and stamp the other half and said "SU VISA A SIDO APROVADO" my husband didn't understand him and look at me all confuse I then told him ya vamonos lol he didn't even looked at us and we said thank you and quickly walk away to pay domex.
I may have forgot a thing or so.. but I get carried away lol. Hope this helps to any upcoming members. |

*Notice about estimates: The estimates are based off averages of other members recent experiences
(documented in their timelines) for the same benefit/petition/application at the same filing location.
Individual results may vary as every case is not always 'average'. Past performance does not necessarily
predict future results. The 'as early as date' may change over time based on current reported processing
times from members. There have historically been cases where a benefit/petition/application processing
briefly slows down or stops and this can not be predicted. Use these dates as reference only and do not
rely on them for planning. As always you should check the
USCIS processing times to see if your application
is past due.
