Embassy Review : |
Our interview for the K1 Visa was pretty much as described in the previous consulate reviews. I have our timeline below for reference. All in all it was pretty quick. Our interview was very simple. My fiancée was only asked the questions below. I was not asked to take the phone at all even though I was present and visible.
The one thing I will note is that the presence of the petitioner did not seem to be nearly as significant a fact on our day as has been reported for some other days. Of the first applicants to arrive, three (including my fiancée) were accompanied by the petitioner and four were not. Two of the accompanied applicants were approved and all of the unaccompanied applicants were approved. The unaccompanied applicants did not seem to receive any more thorough of questioning than the accompanied applicants. I still think it is a good idea for the petitioner to attend the interview if possible, but it does not seem to me that a petitioner should go out of their way to do so if attendance is for some reason a problem.
These were the questions during the interview:
Is that your fiance?
When and how did you meet your fiance?
How many times has he visited you?
When did he visit you most recently?
This was our timeline for the day:
6:30 AM: Arrive at embassy, line 3
7:30 AM: Receive folder for documents and return to window 40
8:00 AM: Fiancée answers basic questions and has documents reviewed at window 7
8:45 AM: Digital fingerprints taken at window 2
10:30 AM: Interview, approval, pay Domesa |

*Notice about estimates: The estimates are based off averages of other members recent experiences
(documented in their timelines) for the same benefit/petition/application at the same filing location.
Individual results may vary as every case is not always 'average'. Past performance does not necessarily
predict future results. The 'as early as date' may change over time based on current reported processing
times from members. There have historically been cases where a benefit/petition/application processing
briefly slows down or stops and this can not be predicted. Use these dates as reference only and do not
rely on them for planning. As always you should check the
USCIS processing times to see if your application
is past due.
