My wife and daughter went for interview in Guangzhou on September 4, 2008 and was given a pink slip and blue slip, the blue slip was for photos of our daughter from birth until present. We had current photos, passport, birth certificate and all other information but they want more photos.

We sent via EMS to Guangzhou on September 6, 2008 and have not heard anything from them yet.

My question is will there have to be another interview or will they just say come and get visas, I know they are on the week holiday now, but how long is normal to wait to here from them, this delay has caused the daughter to miss school in US. Thanks for any help.


There is normally not another interview, just the submission of the requested material. Did your wife get the pink visa approval and the daughter the blue?


she got pink


Ok, so they approved your wife's visa but want evidence of (I take it, your step-daughter) is who you say she is. I assume your wife knows the reason for the request. Depending on the reason, the review may take quite some time. What was the reason?


All they asked for was photos of mother and daughter from day of daughters birth until present.

US Embassy and Consulate DiscussionMarriage & Divorce Certificates

Packet 3 says that both Petitioner and Beneficiary should submit a certified copy of all marriage certificates. If either Petitioner and Beneficiary was previously married, please provide proof of termination of that marriage.

Originally I thought that since I am divorced that I only need to provide a copy of my divorce decree instead of my my marriage certificate (since that marriage is superseded by the divorce). But does this mean that I need to provide the marriage certificate for my previous marriage as well?



Yes, I had to. took 3 weeks to get it from the state I was married in Alaska and I live in Oregon now, I downloaded form requested and overnighted to them and send them a prepaid overnight envelope to send back to me, had it authenicated by the secretary of state of alaska also.
