| Embassy Review : |
We went to the consulate to report our son's birth abroad. I was irritated because there is no place to park, so we had to park on the street and walk with our newborn. Crazy!
Outside the embassy was kind of crazy. Since I'm a US citizen we didn't have to wait in the long line, but they told us to wait off to the side but not why or for how long. After asking a different guard we learned that we were waiting for "the list". Once the list of appointments was sent outside our name was checked and we went through security. Because we had a baby in a carseat we got to skip the line there and move quickly.
Once inside we found the US citizens area and waited for our number to be called. There were only 3 cases there including us on that Wednesday morning. Submitting the paperwork was really easy and simple. Our interview was set for the next morning, so we made the trip down to the embassy again the next day.
The next day we went back to the Embassy and there were about twice as many people there than the day before. It was kind of crazy. Since we had the baby we breezed through security again and beat nearly everyone to the US citizen waiting area. We were called to the window and told that the officer would call us up for our interview. We sat for over an hour waiting to be called, while nearly 30 people filled the waiting area. It was quite busy. The interview with the consular officer consisted of swearing all the info in our paperwork was true, telling them we were married, and answering a question about what I do in Haiti.
The consular officer said we should talk to someone at window 21 to find out about filing the I-130 for my husband. That took a lot longer. There were a lot of people waiting to talk to the lady at window 21. When it was my turn, she had to leave and ask about our situation. WHen she came back she said someone would meet us at window 27. It took nearly 30 minutes for someone to come to window 27 to write our name on a list and tell us to wait some more. Eventually we were called and a very nice lady took the I-130, told us to pay, and said we had an interview with an immigration officer on Monday. |

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.
