Interview was just fine, questions about how we met, when, where. How often we have met in the time we know each other.
In all a 15 minute conversation with the approval after submitting the original signed I-134. Then I could pick up my Visa on April 24, but delayed computer checks prevented me from having it that day. The visa was printed on April 25 and ready for pick up on April 26.
Arrival date in the United States will be May 1 2012. |

Nice to receive that card, but it would make more sense if the card came earlier.
I had to turn down so many jobs because I didn't have the EAD, now I have it and can't find an employer! |

| Embassy Review : |
My fiance and I went to Cancun ( Mexico) first to celebrate our approval on the K-1 visa before we flew together to the United States.
I was checked three times at the Mexican border and one more time before I actually went on the flight to Denver (USA).
I was literally, the last person in line to go through customs and border security with my paperwork, the people from Homeland Security allowed my fiance to go with me through the checkpoint.
I handed my sealed envelope to a friendly officer, and she checked if everything was in order, she pointed me out what I needed to do from here on in and wished me a warm welcome to the United States.javascript:emoticon(' ')

*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.
