Hello everyone - Ive posted on a couple other forums but i just want to get as much advice as i can. I am looking for people currently who have recived there I-130 approval and have gotten an interview date, about how long did it take to get the interview for you? and then after that how long it took for your spouse to actually be able to come here after that? Then as well looking for any good advice on the interviews, like extra documents you braught with you and how the interview was conducted (questions asked). Any help would be great thank you so much!!! Hope the best for all of you couples out there.

Have you looked at others timelines for EGYPT to find out how they compare to yours. Also in the country portal there is a link to interviews...many of us have posted our experience with the interviews and questions here. I hope this helps.

towards the top of Egypt's portal page is quick links...you will find alot of this info there. The interviews are under consulate reviews and you can check out other Egypt members here too.

HI,

Look at my timeline and interview review...I would say we waited 6 month because of the revolution, everything was slowed down but now it should be moving little faster. The full process for my husband and I took little over a year. I filed paper for him in Nov/Dec 2010, he arrived to the US in Feb 2012. Good luck. and be patient:)
