Consulate Review: Indonesia
Review Topic: K1 Visa
Event Description
Review Date : March 17, 2015
Embassy Review : From my fiancee:

At 12.15 the security guy called us, checked his list to our passport and email from the embassy.. then he gave us a plate to put our phone and electronic things.. i entered the gate and we did a little adventure together to find the room.. we went to window 5.. I gave all documents, but she gave me back the evidence (like our pictures, etc) she said "show it to the interviewer later".. then she asked me "first time travel to The US?" And finally she gave me a little white paper and an orange paper and article about human right in the US.. then i went to window 6. To pay the visa 3.577.000 rupiah [$265 USD]..

Then i waited in waiting room. I was the third person called by them.

I entered the room 1, and the interviewer said good afternoon in bahasa.. He is around 30 yo, very nice and handsome.. Je asked me to do finger print 4 times (one of them is for a swearing that every single things in this interview are true) then he said OK.. and start asking me :
1. Tell me how you met him! (i answered online and mentioned about the name of that online website, we started talked on June 9th, 2013 and met in person on October 2013)
2. Been in the US before? No.
3. Have you ever live in other country for more than 6 months? No.
4. Have you ever had any criminal problems? No.
5. This is also the first time you travel to other country? No. I visited couple other countries in Asia
6. With Mr. SEAN? Nope. Except South Korea
--- then interview continued in english--
7. So tell me, what do you know about his job? Well, he work as government worker, ____ analyst, department of ____, washington DC (he quiet) and said grade ____. (then he laughed, so detail huh)
8. How many times you met him? 4 times..October 2013, february 2014, september 2014, december 2014. (He surprised and said, "wow that is crazy, he must really love you, no wonder, you are beautiful)
* honestly yes i was blushing.. but i just laughed
9. You are comfortable speaking english? Yes.
10. Ok, you bring document to prove your relationship right, please give it to me? (I gave everything to him)
he said : "wow, bunch of proof huh"
Me : "well better safe than sorry"
He laughed then smiled while looking at our pictures (especially the picture of the cupcake and when you ate that cupcake ) and his face changed when he saw the engagement picture
Me : "ohh that is a picture of our engagement last december, as you know some indonesian culture, still required a little party for engagement"
Him : "yeahh yeahh yeahh.. i heard about that, i knew i, that is cool culture" (with enthusiastic way of speaking)
11. Well so how many wedding you will have, with this culture? Just two weddings, one is the legal marriage as soon as i arrive in the US, and a reception in October 2015
Him : Ahh i thought you will do 3 times, since muslim people used to do that..
Me : hehehe, i am christian though
Him : ohhhh sorry sorry sorry, i didn't know it, ahh that is good if you are christian then..

And he said wow, all of these prove that your application is safe!! He gave me a blue paper (i sent you a picture on whatsapp) and my original document, like my birth certificate.. then he said : "ok, good luck in the US.. any question?"

Me : nope. Thank you.. have a nice day!!

Him : you too.. thank you..

I left the room, and people were smiled at me they said congratulation after they saw my blue paper.. patricia and her family hug me and we exchange out email and phone number who knows we will meet again in the US.. and after me, was Vio's turn, i waited for her, her application also aprroved.. we were soooo happy...

2. Oh, so K-1 visa? ("Yes")
3. Ok, please give me your papers.
4. How did you two meet?
5. When is your wedding?

*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.

** Not all cases are transfered
