Consulate Review: Islamabad, Pakistan Review Topic: IR-1/CR-1 Visa Event Description Review Date : June 8, 2012 Embassy Review : My wife has her interview at Islamabad embassy. As soon she entered in embassy she submitted her Medical and passport. Then she had her fingerprints done and at the same time they gave her a token to receive visa. Then she called for interview and consular asked her few questions about me; 1. Who is sponsoring you? 2. Who is your husband? 3. Where he work in US and at what position? 4. How much he makes or salary? 5. Is the marriage was arranged? 6. Who arranged this marriage? 7. When last time your husband visited you? 8. What is the date of your marriage? 9. Then he asked to show some wedding pictures? He asked couple of questions here and there... At the end, he said, all set. Your visa is approved. Congratulations!! You will receive your visa in 10-15 days. The interview only last less than 5 minutes and my wife was out of embassy at 8:45am. My wife was the third person they interviewed and both before her also got approved. 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
