Vanessaa on 2020-12-29 said:
My interview is on Feb 10 and I am stressed out! Do you have your documents ready?
Mi_Mo on 2020-12-29 said:
We feel the same way! But I know everything will be fine :) And yes, we have all documents ðŸ™ðŸ½
Vanessaa on 2020-12-29 said:
Best of luck Mo. will be waiting for your positive feedback
Vanessaa on 2021-01-08 said:
Hello Mohamad
How did your interview go? I hope it went well.
I’m glad you had it before the lockdown
Mi_Mo on 2021-01-08 said:
Hi, fortunately he was able to attend the interview, all was okay with our case, except the consular officer asked my fiancé to fill out form ds 5535, after they review it they’ll send him instructions in regards to the visa. So we’re stuck waiting again.
Vanessaa on 2021-01-08 said:
So does he have to attend another interview? I am sorry about all the delay!
Mi_Mo on 2021-01-08 said:
I don’t think he needs another interview, the officers told him once he’s cleared, they’ll give him instructions on where to drop off the passport to get the visa issued. And yes, this delay sucks! :( we have to push our plans back now
Vanessaa on 2021-01-08 said:
I am so sorry to hear that! But I am happy that all went well during the interview! I hope he will get his visa and you guys will meet so soon!
I know the delay sucks! Specially that we’ve been waiting for so long and we had plans.
Good luck for both of you. You will get it soon! Fingers crossed 🤞ðŸ»
Vanessaa on 2021-01-08 said:
Oh! One more question please. Did you submit the documents online before the interview or he brought them to the interview?
Mi_Mo on 2021-01-08 said:
Thank you so much for your wishes. And yes, the waiting game is a killer, I came to Lebanon for his interview and leaving now under this circumstances is heartbreaking...
Wish you the best too!
Vanessaa on 2021-01-08 said:
I hope you enjoyed your stay. I am glad it was before the lockdown.
My fiancé and I were thinking about it but then we decided that on the interview day he will book his ticket. It’s safer this way!
Mi_Mo on 2021-01-08 said:
He took all the documents with him the day of the interview, organized them the way they require it, and gave it to the consular
Mi_Mo on 2021-01-08 said:
Yes! Specially since everything changes from one day to another.
Wish you the best luck!
Vanessaa on 2021-01-08 said:
Exactly!
Thank you so much for sharing your experience with me. It’s really helpful.
Good luck for you asl well with the remaining of the process!
Mi_Mo on 2021-01-08 said:
No problem, it’s normal to be nervous, but my fiancé said the embassy staff is super friendly and helpful, they asked him basic questions, they didn’t even ask him for additional evidence, despite we had A LOT! Lol hopefully we can go through this quick and keep going with our life plans.
Vanessaa on 2021-01-08 said:
You have no idea how nervous I am! I was also worried that may cancel February appointments and then We will have to wait again!
I have a lot of evidence as well. I feel guilty for killing a tree to print all the evidence. I have been denied for a tourist visa before, I think that’s why I am so nervous
Mi_Mo on 2021-01-08 said:
My fiancé as well, he was denied a tourist visa in the past, so you’ll be okay.
Vanessaa on 2021-01-08 said:
Thank you NohemÃ!
You’ve been so helpful I promise
Mi_Mo on 2021-01-08 said:
Anytime! If I can help you in any way, I’ll be more than happy to do so, Ik how stressful this process is.
Vanessaa on 2021-02-19 said:
Hello Nohemi. I hope you’re doing good!
Did Mohamad receive his passport back from the Embassy with the visa stamped in it?
Mi_Mo on 2021-02-19 said:
Hi! No, we’re still waiting because he was requested to fill in an additional form :( so he’s under Administrative Process.
Mi_Mo on 2021-02-19 said:
It’s been almost 2 month and we’re still waiting
Vanessaa on 2021-02-19 said:
Oh no! Did the officer tell him that he’s approved during the interview?
Vanessaa on 2021-02-19 said:
And do they have his passport?
Mi_Mo on 2021-02-19 said:
He just told him everything was fine, he had all the documents needed, but he wanted him to fill out DS5535, which is a security check used mostly in Arab countries.
He didn’t verbally approve him, but he said to turn in that form ASAP and he’ll get the visa to come to the US
Vanessaa on 2021-02-19 said:
I am sorry I am asking so many questions but I had my interview last Friday and I sent the passport on Tuesday with the medical results. On ceac website, it shows that my visa status is refused (this is on the 12th). During the interview the officer told me that He will issue me a visa, but the status has not changed and I am panicking now
Vanessaa on 2021-02-19 said:
I hope he will get it as soon as possible!
Mi_Mo on 2021-02-19 said:
Did you get the male officer? I believe his name is Eric, he’s the one that interviewed my fiancé.
If it’s refused that means he put you under AP until they review or process whatever they need to process.
He told my fiancé he couldn’t keep his passport but they’ll contact him soon to let him know how to send in his passport.
Vanessaa on 2021-02-19 said:
He is male. He’s what happened:
I got a call from the embassy asking me if I would like to have my interview earlier. I accepted, ofc, but didn’t have time to do the medical. When I went to the interview in Feb 12, the officer was so positive and said that there’s nothing to review in my application, he will issue me a visa but he will give me back my passport because I need it to bring the medical results. He also asked me to send back my passport with the medical results. So I sent them on Tuesday, but my visa status hasn’t changed since then.
Mi_Mo on 2021-02-19 said:
Oh okay, he was super nice and polite with my fiancé, like I said, he told him everything was okay, not worry etc it was something very simple.
I believe you’ll get your passport soon, since its just your medical. It’s very stressful, but all we can do is wait. If you don’t hear anything this coming week, I would send them an inquiry and see what they say.
Vanessaa on 2021-02-19 said:
He was very nice and polite with me as well. I hope you will hear back from them soon. I will let you know if I hear back from them.
Mi_Mo on 2021-02-19 said:
Good luck! Same to you! I think your case is simpler and you’ll get your passport soon.
Vanessaa on 2021-02-19 said:
I hope so!! Best of luck for you
