Hi VJ'ers,

Sorry for the late post about my interview experienced last Dec. 05, 2007. I went to USEM around 5:30am thn get inside around 6:45am. Thn we went to the booth where my DS156 & 157 were submitted together with my appointment letter and passport. The lady in the booth gave me d number 073 (lol my lucky number).

Then i went back to my seat after 30 minutes of waiting my number flash on the screen and i went to the pre-screener, she collected my MC (i gave here our NSO copy of the civil wedding and the original copy of our church wedding), BC, proof of relationship (photos, cards, email, chat transcript and voice chat transcript). I offer her my CEMNAR but she said she don't need it. Before i told her that we have our CR1 scheduled interview on Dec 18, she asked me that i have CR1 also and if i want to process it on the same time..i said yes mam thanks..

She asked me the following questions:

My bday, my husband's name & bday, wat his work if he owns the house here, where did we met and when, how long have we been married, how old is he and how old i am..

It went smoothly in the Filipino pre-screener then she said that i will go back to seat and wait for my name to be called for the finger scanning. I waited again for about 30 mins. then my name was called in window 33 for the finger scanning then back to seat again. After 30 minutes i was called for the final interview in window 28 f i remember it correctly..

The consul was friendly i greeted him with a smile and i said good morning he said good mornng too.. The consul look young in mid 30's i think. He said that he will only ask me few questions.. His questions were almost the same to what the pre-screener asked me. He look at the photos one by one and read the caption in it he smiled and told me that for sure Keith, my husband, loves me so much since we have 2 weddings and he even let his whole family come here in the Philippines during our church wedding hahaha i noded and smiled at him..He asked also if it does not hard for us that we are not in the same religion, since, Keith is a presbyterian and im a catholic.. i said that religion where never been the issue n our relationship since we believe in the same savior, Jesus Christ, he smiled again and after a few minutes of checking our documents he said congratulations ur approved. I said, thank you. And i ask if can i request for visa pick-up he said sure when u want to get the visa? I said does it ok on Friday? He said that he can't promise but he will try. Then after that i asked him if they did able to received Congressman Bartley's assistant (Ashley) email about the request for visa pick in our case..He laugh and said wow ur husband gets the congressman for the request and he said we will try on friday. Then i said thank you. He said ur welcome and told me to go to window 38 for further instructions.

When i went to window 38 they return to me my photos, cards, email and voice & chat transcipt and gave me a pink stub. I put thr my contact number and complete name and signed it. He gave me the other half and advised me to wait for a call for visa pick-up.

I got my visa Dec. 11, 2007 at window 33. They gave me the packet and instructed me not to open it this will be needing in my Port of Entry.

I'm now finally with my Husband. I leave Philippines last Dec 12, 2007 6:40am. And my Port of Entry is in Detroit.. So far people there are so kind and I have no problem in there.

I hope that this experienced will help other members of this forum who are still not finish the journey.

I personally thank Sis Rina, Lani, Lhedy, Jyz, Aurea, ChrisParker, D&A and all VJ'er member who where not mention here that your help been appreciated so much..

Best Regards and GOD BLESS.

QUOTE (prettyfacenbody @ Dec 13 2007, 04:55 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
i was able to checked in 2 celphones and a digital camera at the counter where your things are being scanned. the guards gave me a number as a receipt. they asked for three IDs for each but i only have one available ID with me. i guess, just like lhedyjoe, it was because my 2yr old baby is a USC and even the yaya was allowed to tag along with us.

Question...

Is 3 weeks before the Interview too early for getting an early medical?

Are they going to send my wife home if she showed up for Early Medical?

What are the typical reasoning for the guard to let you in for Early Medical?

Please give some advice.. Or wife is going to kill if she ask me this and I don't know what to say to her.. biggrin.gif


I had it 5 weeks before the interview. They are not going to send your wife home if she shows her appointment letter to the guard. They will let her in and give her some forms to fill up so she must bring a black pen with her.



These is what I been waiting to hear, so what do you say abt your wife's 3 keeps early medical now "Roserick"?? Shall we?? I think its going to be ok too..

Result? I never heard of that?

Immunization is not a test.. It is something you need if your missing some shots on your record..

Maybe you mean clearance?



Yeah I think that is what they mean, a simple "okay".. wacko.gif
