Oath Ceremony : 2019-07-08
Comments : I guess around 1000 people at ceremony. I’d spent time arranging a modified oath (removing references to superstition) which made little difference in the end as 1000+ were also talking at the same time! It was a very important date to me. Enjoy the ceremony and celebrate.

POE Review: Minneapolis/St Paul
Event Description
Entry Date : 2012-02-29
Embassy Review : Having travelled to Minneapolis 10 times in the last few years, I expected the usual 30 - 45 minute delay through queuing/customs. I expected the additional checks necessary due to the K1 visa would extend the wait to an hour or so, however, this time I joined the back of a long que where I stood for about 10 seconds before asking a passing customs guy if this que was ok for k1 processing. The guy pointed at an empty lane a suggested I waited over there. As I approached the line I was asked to keep walking straight on to the vacant booth.

The officer took my passport and opened my envelope, then went straight to the relevant page from the envelope and stamped it twice and signed it before returning my passport whilst mentioning the 90 days. Couldn't have been longer than 2-3 minutes. Whole experience was less than 5 minutes and by far the quickest transit through Minneapolis customs.
Harassment Level : Low


Local US CIS Office Review: Saint Paul MN
Review Topic: cis_topic
Event Description
Review Date : July 14, 2012
Embassy Review : Metro drive, Bloomington.
Waited in the waiting room for 15 minutes. Young immi officer took wife, 18 month old daughter and I to office, asked basic questions then approved us within 10 minutes. I took all records, photographs and applications compiled since the beggining, i think he didnt know whether to read it or climb it. I was prepared for every possible question he could ask. My own concern was my bad memory for dates, it generally looks bad when applicants can\'t answer quickly when this happened or that. I think he got bored with my scratching my head so he asked my wife who was a little more precise.

I had various arrests which were covered/explained quickly. The officer was polite, courteous and professional.
Throughout this whole procedure, I have been lucky to have encountered only helpful and professional USCIS officers, Hope you all do too.



Please ask if you\'d like a more in depth briefing.

*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
