Consulate Review: Frankfurt, Germany Review Topic: IR-1/CR-1 Visa Event Description Review Date : April 16, 2014 Embassy Review : Easy experience. Wife skipped the long line, went to immigrant visa line. She arrived at the consulate about 9am and the scheduled time was 1030am. The whole process took 1 hour and she was treated with respect (sadly I should not have to mention anything of how she was treated, but too often the US government employees treat people very poorly). Staff was friendly, spoke to her in German. To those going soon to their interview: Don't worry about a thing. Good luck to all involved in the process. Rating : 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
