Local US CIS Office Review: Buffalo NY Review Topic: cis_topic Event Description Review Date : May 20, 2011 Embassy Review : The interview went VERY smoothly for us. First, the IO asked us to confirm most of the information that we put on our original I-485 application. My wife had a citation for trespassing which was dismissed, so he asked to see an official court document. After confirming everything on our original form he asked to see pictures that we had brought. We came in with 8 or so pics from our lives together and the wedding picture album. After he looked at them he made copies and asked if we had anything else to prove a bonafide marriage. I gave him: Joint tax returns Car Insurance Life Insurance Family Talk Plan (Cell phone) Two credit cards of mine which she is on The IO looked at all of the things we gave him and said "Your marriage is definitely bonafide, I am going to approve you. You should recieve your green card within 2-3 weeks." Overall this process took less than 8 minutes. We spent more time waiting than actually in the interview room. My opinion is that the evidence was so strong that they didn't have to go any further into it. So prepare well, and save yourself the stress of a lengthy interview. Harassment Level : Very Good

*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.

** Not all cases are transfered
