So overall the process took about an hour and 45 minutes. It may have gone faster and smoother if the person directing traffic sent me to the correct line first. They originally sent me through the line that would have me use a Kiosk to check in, instead of going to a person. If you were not aware, on your k-1 Visa you CAN NOT check in using the kiosk!!!
I was moved after the kiosk issue to the back of the regular line and had to wait again. >< Once I got through this line everything was fine. I was asked to wait to the side as my case would need further review by the officer. He just had to wait for someone to take his place which was about 5 mins or so and then he reviewed my packet.
I was with this officer for about 3 mins while he looked at my packet. He asked me my fiance's name and I told him her short name and not her full legal name so he proceeded to ask me whats her full name... what is her middle name... and then jokingly asked me to spell it backwards O.O After he had a little laugh at my expense he said thank you and welcome to the US and congratulations on your upcoming wedding!
The whole process may have been a bit faster if the first person didn't put me in the wrong line and that is the only reason why I gave Tampa a 1 for POE instead of 0. All in all it was smooth and a great POE!
