I can't believe the waiting is over!!
My fiance and I got there 10 min before our appointment(2 p.m)We went to the window and a man cheked my appointment and gave us two tags to show the security men,and avoid the line(there was a huge line up for other visas outside). So I left my cellphone and passed the security checkpoint.
Then the receptionist cheked my appointment and told me to get my biometrics inside and go back to her.
After getting my figerprints went back to the reception and the girl gave us a green folder with instructions on how they want the papers arranged and a number. She said we would be called by this number to hand all the paperwork.
After 10 min our number was called and we went to window 17 to hand all the papers and additional photos to a very nice lady. She checked and took what she needed and told us to go back to the waiting room and wait to be called again to pay the visa fee (350 Dollars CASH)
So we payed and took a seat until our number was called again to enter the Immigration interview room.
After 15 min we heard our number and my heart jumped out of my body...
We were received by a friendly woman in a private room. She asked us to take a seat and then she started with the Oath.
The interview was very simple, I just signed a few papers, gave her the 350 fee receipt and then she proceded with the questioning...
She asked: "tell me about how you two met and how the relationship developed"
then she said I see you brought MANY pictures, I'll go through them and you tell me when and where these were taken. We went over 10 pics probably and then she said, OK enough. We are not going through them all they are too many and I believe in your relationship.
Lastly she asked my fiance about his job, questions like: "what do you do for a living, how long have you been working at your current job, etc"
Then she said CONGRATULATIONS! your case is approved and you'll be getting a K1 visa to enter the US.
Then she went on about all the legal procedures and she told me about the closed envelope I will be receiving with my passport.
Then she gave us a little yellow paper to pay DHL for my passport delivery (55 pesos to Córdoba)
It was easier than we thought and it only took a few minutes. We left happy and pleased 
Now Im ready to book my ticket and go home

Timeline Comments: None yet, be the first!
*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.
