Yes, I had my interview today and Im APPROVED . Yeheyyyy Yipeeee Yahoooo!!! *tumbling*
5:00 am - Arrived in Embassy. Good thing I was on a 6:30am schedule so they allowed me to enter and sit to their waiting area. Had short chika with a lady beside me.
6:00 am - They were now allowing to enter the building, checked the bags and headed to the Immigrant visa room. Get the number.
7:30 am - My name was called for the finger scanning. The lady said very good.. dont know why. hihihi..
8:00 am - My number was flashed in the queue board. Went to the designated window and gave him (Filipino) my proofs/evidences. I gave him the copy of the ITR of my husband and he said no need since they have already copy there. He asked for my age, for how long I've known my husband, checked where I work. Then wait again for the final interview with the consul.
9:00am - I saw my number flashed. Ok take a deep breath! This is it! There's on-going interview, so i waited outside. Shit! Im really nervous, I kept on thinking what will I do to stay relax. I thought of going to the wash room and look at myself, clearing my throat, drink lots of water.... gggrrrr!!!!
I heard the consul asked lots of questions to the applicant before me so it adds pressured.
Its now my turn. I entered the room: (this is what i remembered)
Me: Hi! Good morning! (with a cheerful voice hiding my anxiety.. ahehehe)
Consul: Hi Good morning! How do you do?
Me: Im fine, thank you.
