Hey everyone! Scott has the visa in his hands! He called me about 30 minutes ago with the news! He said he was the first done with the medical and the first done with the interview. He called me around 5:45 EST to tell me that we had been conditionally approved (pending medical results) so it definitely went fast. He also said the interview was pretty easy. They asked him the fairly standard questions:
1) How did you meet?
2) How long have you been together?
3) What does I (the USC) do?
4) What does he do?
5) When and where do we plan on getting married?
All very straight forward, and he said they didn't even mention anything about the I-134, so I guess there was no issue whatsoever! All that worrying for nothing.
Only disappointment was that he forgot to make a trip to the infamous toilet at the Dr's office.
Somebody else will need to fill me in on what's so unusual about it. ![Wink](https://britishexpats.com/forum/images/smilies/wink.gif)
Thanks everyone for all the help and sanity checks along the way!

Hey Jamie
Wey hey hey!!!
Congratulations! Wonderful news, but we DID tell you so...![Wink](https://britishexpats.com/forum/images/smilies/wink.gif)
Ditch the cleaning for now unless you can incorporate it with your happy dance - you'd probably look something like the woman on the Swiffer advert!

I came up with an even better title than houseboy. It's been our on-going joke that he's going to be my housebitch! I'm soo PC ain't I?

Have you decided on a uniform yet? I'm thinking a nice apron with the scottish flag or his family tartan on it, to remind him of his roots...and perhaps some american flag patterned rubber gloves, to tie it all together...think he'll be cool with that?

That's great news. Congratulations. I logged on especially to check on your visa news after you helped me out the other day. I'm happy that it all went through with no problems. Makes me feel better about my interview there tomorrow too!!
Good luck for April and onwards x

What wonderful news, Jamie. I am truly happy for you both. Don't fret about the two months. You'll need it to prepare and it will go by much faster than you think. Besides, this is a different kind of waiting. It's the "knowing" waiting instead of the "not knowing" waiting.
