Rating:  | Review Topic: IR-1/CR-1 Visa
Arrived at the embassy at 7.20 for an 8.30 appointment had about seven people in front of me. Waited till 7.30 and then a lady started checking paperwork and directing people to different lines. I was the first one for imigrant visa got through security they take your phones off and give you a number to collect on your way out. Everybody was very friendly and helpful and followed round the embassy perimeter to the main entrance. At the desk was given a number 001 and sat down and waited to be called. Around 8.00 was called to desk and asked for paperwork, only one photo needed apparantly paperwork has not yet been changed.
Had fingerprints taken and was told to go back and wait for either my number or name to be called. At this time needed the ladies but was to worried would miss my name being called so sat with legs crossed patiently waiting. Got called about 8.20 and the young man I saw asked me to sign the DS230 part 2 re took fingerprints and asked me where I met my husband where would I be living which I answered Wisconsin asked If I had been there I told him yes in April and how long had we dated before we got married. He didn't even seem that interested in the answers just that he had asked the questions. He explained to me what would happen when I arrive in the USA regarding the infamous envelope and then congratulated me and that was it over! six months of waiting weeks of stressing and less than five minutes to be approved. Wow 166 days from date of filing I130 to approval we have been so lucky.
