Our K-1 Visa journey was longer than most due to our circumstances. We could have been interviewed much sooner if we had known that you can start gathering your checklist items right after the acceptance letter arrives. This save time. |
Processing Estimates/Stats : |
Your I-129f was approved in 27 days from your NOA1 date. |

Embassy Review : |
Well, I could hardly wait to come home and write this review!! Woo hoo! This is because if we had not read some of the reviews BEFORE we went to ours today, we would have forgotten our copy of the package originally submitted (I-129F )and we would not have known that the petitioner can actually go to the interview with their fiance. This made our process interview a whole lot less stressful.
The security welcome was quite serious and there were not too many applicants there. Some sought passports while others sought different Visas. They were VERY strict about leaving your stuff at home. No cell phones, cameras, etc. Just carry your papers, ID and that is it!
From the time of the appointment to the moment when we were told that the K-1 was going to be issued, took approximately 90 minutes. Just follow their instructions. Once we got upstairs, everyone was quite pleasant. JUST MAKE SURE YOU HAVE ALL YOUR PAPERWORK ORGANIZED! They will give you a list of required documents. They will be found in the copied package you submitted before at the beginning..... I-129F.
The actual interview in done at a window...no sitting down for this! The gentleman that interviewed us was empathetic. He made us feel comfortable and we never felt intimidated.
We believe it helped that we were there together for both parties involved. As long as you are honest, organized and pray before you go, evrything should be okay. We are sooooo very relieved. All the best to you all! Hang in there....BREATHE!

*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.
