Abdel's POE was Washington Dulles Airport in VA. He had a very easy time there - the man was very nice to him once he told him he had a connecting flight to Orlando to catch and he let him go through with no trouble or questions.

Hicham was the only one out of 25 - 30 people who was interrogated for almost more than five hours. The interviewer and Hicham were the last two to leave the consulate without giving him a reason for deigning him. He request have Arabic Interrupter and was denied.
Aziz had arrived very early and was instructed to give them his appointment letter, passport, and 2 pictures. Then he waited about an hour till his interview. As he looked around the room he noticed that there were a ton of people and he was given a number. First, he was interviewed by a Moroccan man that asked him a few questions, possibly 3 minutes and told him that his interview would be in English. Then Aziz waited for 20 minutes before he had his interview with the feared blondie. That made me worry, but he said today she was on her best behavior and that she was really nice to him and that he could understand her very clearly. She asked him these questions:
How you meet your wife? Who is her stepfather? Who is her biological father? How did you meet your wife? How is it that her father introduced you to her? How many times did her father visit Morocco? Is he married to someone? When did she visit the first time? When was the last time she visit? When was the first time you talked to your wife. Where did she study? Where does she study now? What are her hobbies? What kind of movies she likes? What are her favorite movies? Why did she stay in morocco so long without a job? He said that interview only lasted 10 minutes, but that she wanted him to answer her quickly without pausing or guessing or doing anything like that. He said that there were a lot of people waiting, maybe 100. After the interview was over, she laughed and said good everything is ok, you can come back tomorrow, your visa will be ready? She didn't even look at any of the evidence and Aziz seemed to be the king of evidence there. The best thing throughout this is that he got approved without any setbacks. He actually told me that he didn't have to pay for his fingerprints, that surprised me really, but it is what it is. Way to go Casa
Now married as of April 12, 2008. Living very happily and so glad he is here with me.

went very good, asked why he was here and that was all
They asked a few questions... how did you meet, what does she like/hobbies, what is her ex husbands name and why did she divorce, where does her daughter live, explain where she works and what she does, when did she visit, and finally he looked at maybe 8 out of the 50 photos and asked about the wedding, who was there and where we were in the vacation pics? Overall, it was good, just it took almost 4 hours waiting in the embassy at amman before he got to his interview.
List of questions from visa talk really helped a lot. The only questions they asked that were not on there were: What kind of dog is your fiance's dog? What is the dogs age? (crazy questions) They also asked what year I graduated high school, but that could have been because of our age.

This is his interview and the way he explained it to me.
Qasim was one of the last ones at the embassy. He had already been 4 times interviewed during the day. They mostly asked about his first marriage. Like >>when did you marry first time? Was she pakistani? How long was you married? So that was about his first wife!
The only thing they asked about our relationship was >> How did you meet? When did you marry? Where did you marry? Why does your mom live in Karachi? Do you talk to your wife? ****Why don't you live with your wife?? ( duh) Why don't you live with your wife in a different country??
So overall, it wasn't all that great. He was given a blue slip of paper for AP/221G and also that we were Temp Refused due to>> We have to submit 2 documents back to the embassy and that he is also put on AP. Qasim did ask if they would start AP now and the CO said YES, that is their process. The CO said even without those documents , we still have to do our process of AP?! He was told that the AP would take a minimum of 6 weeks.
He had a very long day at the embassy and this was the turn out of it. So, we are working to get the documents done and back to the embassy ASAP and so insha allaah he will get his visa soon insha allaah!!!!

Our petiton has been received back in the U.S. 'for further review" since April, 2007. Since then, we have not personally heard ONE WORD by phone, mail, nor e-mail. I have contacted many officials...all giving me different responses from how long it 'Might' take to get reviewed to our "case is closed". Just when we decided to go ahead and refile, I checked our status online with USCIS & our case was "touched" Nov. 2, 2007. Again, another wait to see if anything progresses.
Case was approved by the USCIS in April 2006. My baby interviewed in June, and had a second one in Aug. Our case was returned for further review on Oct. 24.... We are still waiting...I was told that our application has expired, and we should refile
