| Embassy Review : |
Here are the questions CO asked my wife on Tuesday:
How did you meet your husband?
where did you met him?
What was he doing at your friend's house?
When did you all started dating?
How did he proposed? He proposed through the phone. CO Smiled/Laughing:D
Why didn't your husband's his adoptive family didn't come for your wedding? Due to dad's health issues, so my family in Ghana represented them.
Who is your co-sponsor? His sister and brother-in-law
What does your husband do?
What are his roles at work?
What does he do on his free time? He called me whenever he is free. and if I am busy, he sleeps or go shopping.
CO, what does he likes to buy? Husband likes electronics. CO smiled and said he too loved electronics.
CO wants sister's original Household Member Support Form I-864A form and sister's IRS Tax Transcript or tax return AND W-2
before he can issue her the visa. CO kept wifey medicals, police certificate and passport pictures. CO wants wifey to drop the above documents and her passport at the GSS Distribution Center, DHL Ghana Limited.
Interview took less then 20 minutes and wifey said CO was very friendly
The lady who collects the documents told my wife that our documents were well organized. Please, if you have chat log or any communication logs from the beginning of your relationship, make sure you frontload them. Either at USCIS or NVC. The beginning is the key. Also make sure that your interview practicing questions comes from your love story you sent to USCIS. Also, please Ghanaian members help each other out. This journey has brought us together as a family.
Lastly, I want to this opportunity to thank dwheels76, LoveinGhana! Hansona and Kojo & Yaa

Timeline Comments: None yet, be the first!
*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
